A Cricket-PlaYinr Rishnn.

Clergymen who enter into general
athletic sports always run the risk OF
encouraging familiar and impertinent
relations on the part of those with
whom they play. AS an instance of the
way in which this may take place, a
story told of the late bishop of Roch-
ester by an English paper may be quot
ed. This good bishop was so fond of
cricket that he used to play the game
with an expert local team. One day
when he was batting in a match the
bowler pitched very wide, and the bish-
op exclaimed sharply:
please keep the ball in the parishr
The next ball which the bowler sent
knocked out the bishops mid stump"
whereupon the bowler remarked loud
enough for some of the spectators to
hear:
II think that's somewhere about the
diocese, Ily ludr'

Facts About PumIce Stone.

Pumice, as is well known, is of vol
canic origin, being a trachytic lava
which has been rendered light by the
escape of gases when in a molten
state. 1t is found on most of the
shores of the Tyrrhenian sea and else
where, but is at present almost ex-
clusively obtained from the little is
land of Lipari. Most of the volcanoes
of Lipari have elected pumaceous
rocks, but the best stone is all the pro-
duct of one mountain, Monte Chirica,
nearly 1000 feet in height, with its
two accessory cratere. The district in
which the pumice is excavated covers
an area OF three square miles. 1t has
been calculated that about 1000 hands
are engaged in this industry, 600 Of
whom are employed in extricating the
mineral. Pumice is brought to the
surface in large blocks or in baskets
and is carried thus either to the
neighboring village or to the seashore
to be taken there in boats. The sup
ply is said to be practically inexhaust-
ible. Pumice is used not merely for
cleansing and securing purposes, but
also for polishing In numerous trades,
hence the fact that the powdered pum-
ice exported exceeds in weight the
block pumice. Between twenty and
thirty merchants are engaged in the
pumice trade in the island. London

II there were any obstacles in the
way they were soon overcome. He
called but two or three times a week
during the first few months of their
acquaintance, but the restrictions she
had imposed upon too frequent visits
were finally removed and then he fell
into the habit of stopping there every
day on his way home from the studio.
1t was the coffee he went for-of
course. He told his friends so: he as
serted the same thing to her, and even
went so far as to believe 1t himself.
She always smiled when he said any
thing about it, but she was too wise

They were very confidential. Both
had much to rlate. He was 40 years
old-he hadn't told anybody his age for
years before meeting her-and she was
81. She looked to be few years older
than that, and by degrees she gave him
graphic sketches of the early marriage,
disappointment and privation that had
brought on the marks Of premature

Adventure with a Bengal Tiger.

From Bengal comes an amusing, al
though exciting tale of two young
army officers who tried to capture =
tiger. Having gorged itself on a COW,
the animal was asleep when these two
men caught sight of it. They might
have shot it, but it occurred to them
that there would be as much honor
and a lot of money in taking it alive.
So they made nooses in two long ropes,
and after some manoeuvering from a
rock above, managed to lasso the neck
and one leg of the tiger. The beast, of
course awoke, and for a time regarded
the ropes indifferently; but when he
attempted to walk away, and found
himself restrained, his rage knew no
; bounds. He gave two or three great
, jumps, and the ropes snapped like
: strings, and then he started for his
would-be captors, and would have
! caught them had not he become en-
tangled in the ropes. While he was
jumping around they poured bullets
into him, and finally hit vital spot.
So they got him after all, but not in
the way they intended.

"I'll tell you some day." she replied,
adroitly.
The bachelor had work out OF town
at that time and he did not see her
again for two weeks. He called imme-
diately after his return, and she well

accept him.


pared for Transportation.
Men experienced in gathering aquar-
ium stock never ship fishes long dis
tances Immediately after they are
caught, If it can be avoided; the NOR
tally is almost sure to be great among
stock so shipped. By whatever means
a fish has been captured it is likely
to have been more or less excited and
it may have suffered some injury which
would make it liable to attack by fun
gus. 1t is the practice when possible
to place the newly caught fish in fish
cars or in some other suitable place
at or near the shore in the vicinity Of
where they were caught, where they
may be rested for the journey, accus-
toned under favorable conditions to
captivity, and accustomed to feeding,
and where the weak or injured fishes
may be weeded out. In this way only
good and sound fish are finally started,
and these are started in the best posi-
BILE condition. Fishes thus selected and
prepared are far more likely to get
through all right, and such fishes are,
of course, far more likely to survive
in an aquarium.

Honey a Cure for smal,po,.

Experiments made with smallpox pa

administering honey diluted in water
to smallpox patients the pustules of the
worst variety disappear and the fever
is Immediately diminished. The mat

young girl who was down with the
disease, who secretly refreshed herself
with honey and water, with astonishing
curative results, and it was then tried
on soldiers sick with the disease.
