Oxford's witty Bishop.

Two stories are attributed in The
Railway Magazine to the witty bishop
of oxford. He was orce talking to
some boys in a school and said to them:
"Now, my boys, dare say you think
It's very fine thing to be a bishop.
But assure you I'm a very busy man.
1 have to go about all over my diocese,
and / haven't time to study like you
have. In fact, nearly all my study has
to be confined to only one book. 1t be-
gins with b. Do you know what 1t
isT 'The Bible, sir; the Bible" shout
ed the boys all together. NO." replied
the bishop, with d merry twinkle in his
eye. ITS called Bradshaw
The other story Is still better On
one occasion when he alighted from
the train at Wheatley, the station for
Cuddesden palace, an officious porter
rushed up to him and asked, ANY arti-
cles in the van, my lordT Articles" /"
said the bishop grimly. "Yes, 80 arti-
cles." OF hurried the porter and wor-
ried the guard almost out of his senses
by the way he searched the van and
detained the train. Presently he came
back to the bishop with a crestfallen
expression of countenance. There are
only seven, my lord" "Only seven I

Leighton and the Poor Student.

leighton and the Poor Student.
OF Leighton's hearty, eager helpful
ness many instances might be given.
at the academy a student was passing
through the first room on his way to
the entrance. He looked the picture of
detection and disappointed wretched-
ness-poorly and shabbily dressed and
Sinking away as If he wished to pass
out of the place unnoticed. Millais and
Leighton, walking arm in arm, came
along, pictures of prosperity.
Leighton caught sight of the poor,
downcast student. Leaving Millafs, he
darted across the vestibule to him and,
taking the students arm, drew him
back into the first room and made him
sit down on the ottoman beside him.
Putting his arm on the top Of the otto
man and resting his head on his hand,
Leighton began to talk as he alone
could talk, pouring forth volumes of
earnest, rapid utterances, as II every
thing in the world depended on his
words conveying what he wanted them
to convey. He went on and on. The
shabby figure gradually seemed to pull
itself together, and at last when they
both rose he seemed to have become
another creature. Leighton shook
hands with him, and the youth went
on his way rejoicing.
1t is certain that IL other help than
advice were needed it was given. But
it was the extraordinary zest and vital
ity which Leighton put into his help
which made it unlike any other. He
fought every ones cause as others
fight their own.-London Telegraph.
