GAY FUNERALS IN BRAZIL.
Death Is Not a solemn Affair with Rio
 Janesrians

One of the first things that strike the eye og the stranger in Rio de Janeiro are some odd-looking carriages. You think there must be a circus in town, but on inquiry are told those are hearses. Owing to the climate corpse cannot be kept over twenty-fouf hours. nor will the law allow it, ana so many have their clothes made and funeral invitations printed before they are ready to die. They do not regard death as seriously in Rio as we do ln North America. but lay great stress on the outward show Even infants are put into mourning for their forty-see- ond cousin, poor and rich alike. 1 re- ceived an invitation to the funeral Of a child of a friend It was printed on white paper having a scarlet border. Scarlet is the color used by the Bra zilians for the funeral decorations or the young, while violet is for adults. The invitation has not only the names of the parents of the child, but the grandparents, uncles, aunts and eou- sins. I was supposed to bring a wreath or othe- emblem of artificial flowers freaI ones are seldom used), and drive to the mourners' house. There I was met by an usher. who took the wreath and led me into the chamber of death, where the mourners and priests were praying for the departed soul. Every article of furniture, pictures. knicknacks, etc, had been removed from the room, and the coffin was placed in the center, upon bier draped with scarlet cloth, around which the wreaths, etc. were put. When the prayers had been said the father and brother carried the coffin to the hearse. The hearse was also scarlet and gold, but oh! so shabby, and so were the two men on the seat. who were dressed from head to foot in the same bright eolors, and looked more like organ monkeys than men, A closed cab led the procession. in which sat the priest in all his bright robes; then followed the hearse, after which, in open car riages. the male relatives and friends tno women attend any funerals).- Philadelphia Inquirer.

Things They Would Really Like to Do
 in London.
 The women who go to London to make speeches at the international congress need not fear that they will get lost in the big town, says the New York Commercial Advertiser. The hos pitality subcommittee G5n't that ex- pressive?) has drawn up a list giving minute information upon hotels and boarding houses, and such details as the lowest charge for rooms and meals per day or week and the distances from hotel or boarding house to the West minister palace hotel, either by bus or rail. Furthermore, Mrs. Broadey Reid, the conYener of the literature sub committee" has prepared a map. show ing the positions of the various halls, where the meetings are to be held. Now what the American visitors would appreciate more than a list Of meeting halls of which they have enough and to spare at home would be a list of tea rooms, diagram showing how to find the inn where "Pickwick" was writ ten and the site of the "Old Curiosity Shop, and the house where Bill slkes met his death They would also like to wander through the abbey and stand long al l worshipfully before the bust of Longfellow. The. would pre- fer lodgings which they have heard such picturesque accounts-to hotels where Americanized servants have learned to say elevator" and crackers and mai" and dining room. And last. but not least. they will want to drive in Rotten Row, buy furs in Resent street and tast, the purely London joys of a cabmau that can drive hanson drawn by we'll fed horse-all for IS pence.

HEARD WHEN YOU sNEEzE.
EIaoulations in Many Languages to Ward

EIaculations in Many Languages to Ward
 or Coming Danger.
 In many a family particularly in New England, a sneeze is generally fol- lowed by a hearty God bless us, ," though little thought is ever paid to the meaning of the phrase or why it is used. A curious explanation of the origin of the phrase Is given. It seems that several centuries ago an epidemic like our present influenza became rife all over Europe, the first symptom of which was violent sneezing. The pope at that time prescribed prayers against the epidemic and recommended cer- tain short ejaculations, to be made when anyone sneezed in such a way as to show signs of having contracted the malady. Hence all over Europe we have these calculations, practically of the same character. Italy: "Dio VI benediea! in Germany, "Gott segne dich!" falso "Gesundheiti'1 in France, .Dieu Yous benisse!a among the Span ish speaking people of New Mexico, Jesus te favorescaIt9 in Arizona, .'Je- sus to oyude!" The English, eGod bless you," or God bless us" corre- spends to the Gaelic, 'Dia linn, God with us!" Sometimes the response. "Agus I.uire!" and Mary" is added, and in violent attacks, "agus Eoin Baiste," and John Baptist" In New Mexico they say to children sneezing: "Dlos te haga erecer. God make thee grow" An equivalent expression IS used in Gaelic as thank phrase. and l have heard people say in Ireland to a child sneezing, God bless you, child, you're no fairy" a semi-serious allu- sion to the possibility of children be- ing changed by fairies, as the old leg end had it.-Donahoe's Magazine.

AN INNS SECRET.
Sample of How Warrants We're Prepared
 in Old Times


 in Old Times.
 During the work Of rebuilding the Royal Bull hotel of Dartford. England, an old hostelry and landmark, some in teresting discoveries were made last month, says the Baltimore Sun. In l773 a murder had been committed at the house and the body disappeared mysteriously. A skeleton now dug up. three feet below the flooring of an old cellar, leads to the belief that it was the remains of the victim of the tra- gedy. A secret staircase was brought to light, and, as this communicates by invisible doors in the walls of the eel lar with the room in witch the tragedy occurred, it strengthens the belief that the body was taken down the stair ease and buried At the same time a number of death warrants. bearing the signature of Portland. minister of George III, were found in the panels of the walls in which the murder was committed. How documents of this character got into so strange a hiding place is a matter for conjecture. One, dated June, 179S, is a good sample of how warrants were prepared in those days It reads: Whereas James 0'Coigley, having been attal4.sd of high treason and had sentence passed upon him to be drawn upon hurdle to the place of execution and to be hanged by the neck, but not until he IS dead, but that, being alive he shall De taken down and his bowels taken out and burnt before his face, that his head shall be severed from hls body and his body divided into four parts. aud that his head and body shall be disposed of as we think fit, and where as we think fit to remit that part of tae sentence directing the burning of his bowels and dividing the body into four parts. our will and pleasure Is that be shall be drawn and hanged and have his head severed from his body"

Work.
 Amid the fiscouragements which the recent revolution in Picking has occa- stoned to those concerned in China $ welfare-for the movement in question is manffestIy anti-reform, anti-foreIgn, and consequently anti-Christian- there are many signs that such oppo- sition can not radically hinder this eountry's enlightenment. Such a sign is the progress of the Y. NJ. C. A. move ment among Chinese youths. which IS assuming considerable importance, es- pecially in connection with mission schools. It was found desirable to in- yite from America an experienced worker in this departments; and though it will be some time before this gen tleman can speak Chinese, there is no difficulty in the matter of interpreters, native or foreign.
 Yesterday in our large Shanghai mis- sion church, says correspondent, there were gathered 200 Chinese boy scholars from various mission schools in and near Shanghai, all of whom were either members of the local Y. M. c. A. or willing to join it. Earnest addresses were given and prayers offered both in English and Chinese. the English ad- dresses being admirably translated by Christian Chinaman; while the brigbi byron singing of those strong young voices was a delightful sound. At the close of the morning meeting prayers were distributed to the boys containing questions to be answered in writing and form of Christian en- gagement to be signed. At the after noon service many of these were re- turned most satisfactorily and intelli- gently filled in. Such assemblies have recently been held with much interest and zeal, and apparently solid results, at Ranking and other eenters of mis- sionary work.-The Culver.

The Number Seven.

The most intelligent ritualists are agreed in common with the Roman Catholic church that there are seven saeraments. How they came to fix on the exact number of seven Is not so we'll known. nor do they seem to be quite sure themselves. Peter Lombard and St. Thomas did not invent the sanctity of the number seven, but only inherited it. When once the assump- ton had been made that numbers had some hidden meaning and when the assumption had been consecrated by religious tradition, it is eaa- to see how seFtbes and Pharisees builded on It an imposing but shadowy house of cards. Thus, when seven had been received as the perfect number. it was inevitable that the six gifts of the spir- It named by Isaiah should be corrected into seven; that seven mortal sins should be classified to be set straight by seven sacraments But what is more to our present purpose is to in- quire how the assumption came to be made The answer to this question may be given at once. The sacredness Of seven rests on the regard paid. in the oldest astronomical system known to us' to the seven planets-the sun, moon, Mercury. Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn.
