Some Old Jokes.

The Cornhill Magazine publishes Ger
tain extracts from an old French jest book
which proves at least that jokes are not
very much changed, for some of these are
as dull as the pleasantly of our own day.
They are comprised under the heading
Menagiana, and are extracts from the
conversations which took place. at the
house of Giles Menage, a student ard
writer of the seventeenth century. He
was the author of much literature, both
poetry and critical prose, and was consid
cred w.t. but whether he and his friends
actually sparkled at their Wednesday gath
erings may be guessed from few samples
Of the conversation there:

1t was the rudest court and surroundings l

a couple of jack leg lawyers had got in
what they had to say the court turned the
case over to the jury, and it adjourned to

Ltvingstone's Boyhood.

Janet Livingstone, who died recently in
Edinburgh, was the younger sister of the
great African explorer, David Livingstone
She told many quaint stories of Der BROTH
er's boyhood. Once when six years old he
staid out beyond the prescribed hours, and
on returning home found the door barred,
a punishment for the second transgression
of the kind. David made no fuss, and his
father, when he opened the door some time
later, found the young hopeful sitting on
the doorstep munohing penny loaf:
"I'm having my SUPPER" he observed
resignedly to his astonished parent
"Mother has shut me out. -
Livingstone senior was as great a phil
oeopher as his son. One day David brought
home the news that heavy duty was to
be put on tobacco.
Neil Livingstone, who was not rich
man, was just lighting his pipe as the
news was broken. He put it down un-
lighted.

Bishop DOsnu on the Strained Relation,
Between the Two CountrisS.


ALBANY, N. Y, Nov. 16,-Blshop
william croswell Doane. in his annual
address to the clerk OF the diocese of
Albany, to-day, speaking OF The rela-
ton Of America TO England in the Lam
beth conference, was very intense in
his condemnation OF what Is called
"jingoism." Relating to the report up
on the subject OF international arbitra-
ton, he said: "There can be no question
but that within the last two or three
years. from various causes and with
some fault on both sides, the minds OF
men have been accustomed to the
thought OF n possible resort to arms as
the settlement OF national questions
between England and America. With
our many extreme expressions OF partl-
san violence, the English government,
the English people and the English
press have been most patient; but, un-
less we come to recognize more than
we do the recklessness of speech, the
facility OF roasing p~rejpdlces, and the
danger OF provoking even the most pa
tient strength, we may bring about a
state OF things infinitely dlsgraceful
anu lhIHllel5 udhkeluuS W Oui NLAlS-
tianity and u civilization"
Bishop Doane said that the spirit OF
hostility so openly expressed on this
side OF the water vas present, though
latent In England and we should be
careful how we aroused this feeling to
active hostility.
"If, as has been suggested" he add
ed. "the old revolutionary spirit that
regarded England as n tyrant Is still
kept alive by our school-books OF his
tory, then 1t is time the text books were
rhanuedh
