Didn,t Correct the Error.

An old writer tells the Lewiston Jour-
nal that to err is human" and he
struck weak spot in mans make ur
when he wrote that truth.
A few months ago in one Of Names
county seats lawyer and clergyman
were chatting together. In the course
of conversation the subject Of mistakes
and miscalculations came up.
Do you ever make mistakes ?" asked
the minister Of the lawyer.
Why, yes, sometimes" was the
answer.
II suppose you rectify them, don't
you?" inquired the clergyman.
"No, not always. II it is large
mistake, correct it, but if it is asmall
one let it go. How about yourself,
Brother B? l suppose you sometimes
make mistakes?"
"Oh, yes, sometimes" answered
the minister, "but treat them as you
do. For instance, in my sermon a few
Sundays ago l said, The devil is the
father of all lawyers but it was such
a slight mistake that l let it CO."

A Saitry Obituary.

II wasn't Missouri editor, but
Missouri printers devil, who was going
through his first experience of "mak-
ing up FORMS" The paper was late
and the boy got his galleys mixed.
The first part OF an obituary OF an i'm
pecunious citizen had been dumped in
the forms and the next handful of type
came from galley describing recent
fire. II read like this:
"The pallbearers lowered the body
into the grave, and as II was con-
signed to the flames there were few
regrets, for the old wreck had been an
eyesore to the town for years. Oh
course there was individual loss, but
that was fully covered by insurance. Z"
The widow thinks the editor wrote
the obituary that way because the la
mented partner OF her joys and SORROWS
owed him fve years subscription

PUNIsHMENr OF THE BAGNo.

In former times the punishment OF
the Bagno (bath), one Of the most
cleverly cruel infections ever devised
by an official of the torture chamber,
was administered in Italy, probably in
Venice, where the water OF the lagoons
played so prominent part in its penal
system. The punishment was as fol-
lows:
The prisoner was placed in a vat, the
sides Of which were slightly in excess
OF the average height of a man. In
order to hold in check the rising tide
of supply of water which ran into
the vat in constant stream, the GRIM
inal was furnished with scoop with
which to bale out the water as fast as
it came in.
The respite from death by INNER
sion thus obtained was more or less
prolonged according to the powers Of
endurance possessed by the victim.
But imagine the moral torture, the ex-
hausting and even hideously grotes-
que effort, the incessant and pitiless
toll by night and day to stave off the
dread moment fast approaching, when,
overcome by sleep and fatigue, he was
unable to struggle any longer against
his fate.-Le Moniteur de Puy.
