1t Crops Ont Occasionally Among EldezG
of the Kirk.
The elderof the kirk, like most of us,
can blunder occasionally. The pastor Of
a small village on the borders had gone
for few days to visit some relatives,
when an old lady was suddenly stricken
down and not expected to live more
than few hours. The elder was hastily
summoned to attend; but, having been
lately elected to the post, which he had
accepted in order to satisfy the vanity
of his wife, he did not feel able to face
the trying ordeal His wife entreated
him to do his duty, and whispering a
few lines of Scripture into his ears sent
him off on his errand.
An hour later his wife beheld him
stepping homeward as brisk as March
hare. She inquired how he had come on.
"Oh, fine, woman, fne!'' was the re-
ply. "She was deid when got there ="
A short time ago, when disestablish-
ment was III everybody's mouth, an old
lady created quite a sensation in a
church not far from Amman. Having
she was unaware that the election of
elders had taken place. She attended
services the following Sunday, when the
minister, commenting on the result, re-
marked that in David Richardson the
church had a new pillar Of strength, to
which she retorted: what! David
Richardson pillar! Nae wonder the
auld kinks gaun to fa'r' David, who
had the misfortune to have a wooden
leg and hump back, quietly rose up
and answered: "Whee ht, ye gowk.

On one occasion the minister met
Donald coming from Dumfries Rood fair
in rather a muddled state david !!
David! Do see your double?"
"Eh, guidsakes, minister - exclaimed
the elder. ''Guidsakes, are ye fou tae?"
A minister, feeling indisposed on one
occasion, did not put in an appearance,
and the elder, apologizing for his alb
sence, gave it out that "his reverence
was unco bad in the roomattic' (for so
he pronounced the word rheumatism

On hearing this startling intelligence
an old lady who happened to be pres

Why He Shook the Child.

A man riding in Broad street omni-
bus the other day, with a small child in
his arms, was the object of many frowns
from the other passengers, because he
persisted in vigorously shaking the lit
tie one on account of her crying. The
shakings he gave the child did not ap-
pear to have any effect except to make
her cry the harder. The women in the
bus glared at the man and said mean
things about him to each other. The
men looked over the tops Of their papers
occasionally and swore inaudibly. The
father wore worried look, and the baby
continued to cry. Occasionally it would
stop, and it's head would nod sleepily
Then the father would shake the young
ster vigorously, waking it up and start
ing it's tears afresh
Finally woman, who had been nerv
ously watching the unnatural father,
walked over and asked him why he was
maltreating the youngster. "Why,"
said he, eve got to shake her to keep
her awake. She swallowed some kind
Of drug, and if she goes to sleep she II
die. Just then the bus stopped at
Broad and Thompson, and the father
and child got off and entered the Chill
dren $ hospital. -Philadelphia Record.

SARDlNE FISHING.
The Process From the Time of the Catch
to the Canning and Cooking.

The Process From the Time of the Catch
to the Canning and Cooking.
Toward the end of April the sardine
fishermen along the coast of Brittany
begin to watch for the bubbling Of the
sardines on the surface Of the sea- For
they know that vast shoals of the little
fish are on their way from the coast of
Africa up through the bay Of Biscay to
the north, and that they must be caught,
if at all, as they pass. When any one
sees the water agitated, word spreads
rapidly and the boats put out from the
shore and race to the shoal.
When the net is extended, the water
is "baited'' by throwing balls of
"roque" into it. AS the bait dissolves
and sinks the sardines rise and remain
long after to nibble it, and their doom
is sealed. For this reason "roque' is a
most important part of the sardine fish
erman's outfit. It is made Of the eggs Of
mackerel and Goldfish mixed with clay,
and is rather expensive, costing from IS
shillings to 70 shillings barrel.

sion, for there must not be a moment
delay in cleaning the fish. All night
long the work is carried on by the light
of blazing oil wicks. The sardines are
spread out on benches or tables, where
salt is busted over them. Then the
women 60 along and snip off the heads
with great scissors.
The little fiat boxes so we'll known
to commerce are taken one by one and
filed from the glistening pile of fish,
after which pure olive oil from the
province of Bari, in Italy, is poured
over them and the tops soldered on.
In the meantime d great caldron Of
hot water has been raised to the boiling
point ready for the real operation Of
cooking the fish. The sealed boxes are
thrown into it and left for two or three
hours. If any oil appears Oh the top of
the water, the master workman knows
that some can has not been properly
soldered, and the loss is charged up to
the man who did the work. A good
workman will not lose more than two
Or three boxes in 100.-New York Re-

THE FlSH'S BALLOON.
a Mystery That Scientists Have Not Yet
Been Able to Solve.

a Mystery That Scientists Have Not Yet
Been Able to Solve.
Naturalists long ago studied the COM
position of the gas contained in the
swimming bladder Of fishes and discov-
cred that it consists of the principal
constituents of the air-namely, oxygen,
nitrogen and carbonic acid. But these
constituents are not mingled in the fish s
balloon in the same proportions as they
are in the atmosphere, and besides their
proportions do not remain always the
same in the fish. Sometimes the bladder
contains hardly any oxygen; at others
oxygen constitutes nine-tenths of the
whole contents.
The variation in the quantity Of oxy-
gen is somewhat mysterious, and nat
uralists have offered several different
suggestions as to the cause Of it. Some
think the fish may be able to control the
quantity of oxygen in its bladder by its
own will Blot, a distinguished French
naturalist, thought he had solved the
problem by discovering that the proper
ton Of oxygen was larger in fish that
lived at great depths and smaller in
those that lived near the surface of the
sea.
But quite recently new observations
made from the Prince of Monaco S yacht.
Princess Alice, seem to prove that Blot
was mistaken and that the deep dwell
ing fish carry no more oxygen in proper
ton than do those living in shallow wa
ter. Some of the fish whose swimming
bladders were examined by the natural
lists on the Princess Alice came from a
depth of no less than mile.
They were compared with fish which
seldom descend below 200 feet in depth
and with others which prefer a depth of
about 500 or 600 feet, and all had near
~ the same proportion of oxygen to aid
them in swimming
The variations mentioned above seem
therefore to depend upon some other
cause than the depth Of the fish S dwell
ing place.
1t is these unsettled questions that Of
fer to young naturalists some of their
most brilliant opportunities for distinc-
ton. 1t is a great mistake to suppose
that there does not remain a plenty of

The Work of the Heart.

One Of the most remarkable things
about the heart is the amount of work
it does. Considering the organ as a
pump whose task is to deliver a known
quantity of blood against a known
"head, it is easy to show that in "a
hours mans heart does about 1874 foot
tons of work. 'In other Words" says a
contemporary, IF the whole force ex-
pended by the heart in "a hours were
gathered into one huge stroke, such a
power would lift 1874 tons one foot from
the ground. A similar calculation has
been made respecting the amount of
work expended by the muscles involved
in breathing In "a hours these muscles
do about 81 foot tons Of work. -

Its lingering echoes sound to me
A knell of dying gladness.

Though falls the darkness coldly,
Remember thou hast duties yet

A mob is usually creature Of very
mysterious existence, particularly in a
large city. Where it comes from or
whittier it goes few men can tell. As
sembling and dispensing with equal sud-

its various sources as the sea itself, nor
does the parallel stop here, for the ocean
is not more tickle and uncertain, more
terrible when aroused, more unreason-
able or more cruel.-Dickens.
