The Story of . Bell.

In the church tower of the little town of Grosslaswitz, in the north of Ger many, hangs bell, and on it is engraved its history, surmounted by bas-relief representing a six cared stalk of corn and the date, Oct. 15, 1729. This is the story of the bell: At the beginning of the last century the only church bell at Grosslaswitz was so small that its tones were not sufficient to penetrate to the ends of the village. A second bell was badly wanted, but the village was poor, and where was the money to come from? Every one offered to give what he could, but the united offerings did not amount to nearly enough for the purpose.
 One Sunday when the schoolmaster, Gottfried Hayn, was going to church he noticed growing out of the churchyard wall fourishing green stalk of corn, the seed of which must have been dropped there by passing bird. The idea sud denly struck him that perhaps this one stalk of corn could be made the means of producing the second bell they want ed so much. He waited till the corn was ripe, and then he plucked the six ears on it and sowed them in his own garden. The next year he gathered the little crop thus produced and sowed it again, till at last he had not enough room in his gar den for the crop, so he divided it among a certain number of farmers, who went on sowing the ears until in the eighth year the crop was so large that when it was put together and sold they found that they had enough money to buy beauti- ful bell, with its story and it's birthday engraved upon it and cast of the corn stalk to which it owed its existence London Globe.
