rne Country Clerrvman.

An old clergyman who had held .
cure In the depths Of the country for
the greater Part Of his life had occasion
to consult his bishop on a certain mat
ter, and, in answer to his letter, re-
ceived an invitation to sleep the night
at the palace. For 40o T 80 years he had
practically led the life Of a r~ecluse, and
It was after many ~cogitations that he
decided to take the journey to the other
end Of the diocese. where the bishop
lived. He arrived just in time for 8
o'clock tea, a meal to which he was q
complete stranger.
After tea the bishop asked him to ao.
company him to evensong. When they
returned to the house. the bishop, re-
marking that it was quite time they
went up stairs, lit a candle and showed
his guest to his room. It was then just
2 O'Clock. and, though the old clergy
man thought it was rather early to re-
tire. still, admiring the bishop for such
simple habits. he prepared for bed. He
had just put out the light and lain
down to sleep, wishing he had drunk a
little more tea. when a booming noise
rang through the house and smote upon
his ear.
Quick as thought he sprang from his
bed and, shouting "Fire!" at the top Of
his voice. rushed out on to the landing
Just in time to meet the bishop, with q
lady OF his arm, going down to dinner.

A Lost Opportunity.

Il was near one Of the large railroad
statione. A man rather advanced in
years, whose old fashioned attire and
open mouthed wonderment proclaimed
that he was q visitor from the rural dis
tricts and not accustomed to the every
day sights of a large city, was suddenly
accosted by a sharp visaged youth with,
"Mister, yer dropped yer wallick." As
he spoke 10 held forth a large wallet
we'll stuffed with old revenue stamps
covered with q couple of dollar bills.
Uncle Rube looked at the greenbacks
bullying out of the wallet with equally
%protruding eyes, hesitated just nc
ment, and then, his cupidity evidently
getting the better of him, reached for
it. "Hold on; give us a tenner furst,
exclaimed the possessor of the wallet.
The old man quickly put his hand in
his trousers pocket; but, after q mo-
ment. drawing forth his empty hand.
he drawled out, "Take it out O. this
wallet"
The youth, closing the wallet with
ill concealed disgust, turned OH his heel
and hurried off. The stranger in town
looked after tho youth a moment, and
then, muttering, "Gol dern! Missed it
ag'in. told Sal I'd need moron 3d."
he resumed his peaceful way.-Phila-

A Greek Genius.

Diamandi, a native Of Pylaros. mi Of
the Greek islands, is q remarkable CAL
culator. After u mere glance at a black.
board on which 80 groups of figures are
written he can repeat them in any order
and deal with them by any arithmetical
process. 1t is said that he never makes
an error in calculations involving bill
lions, and he can extract square or cube
roots with marvellous rapidity and ac-
curacy. An eminent German specialist
declared the other day that all these
ready reckoners were idiots. This is not
the case with Diamandi, who writes
poetry and novels in the intervals Of
business and shows considerable intel
lectual capacity.
