For convenience time is, by his
torians, usually divided into three
great eras-ancient, medieval Tor mid
dle) and modern. The ancient period
is considered to extend from the earli-
est times down to the fall of the Ro-
man empire in the west in A. D. 416;
the medieval from that date to the
discovery of America by Columbus in
1892 and the modern from that time to
the present. Some historians prefer to
put the end of the medieval period at
the capture of Constantinople by the
Turks. about 40 years earlier than the
Columbus event. The dark ages are
often held to be coeval with the me-
di9val era. but some authorities think
that the term should be applied only
to the part of the era extending from
the downfall of the empire of Charlie
magne in the ninth century. onward.

GOME CURIOUS CHURCHES.
Congregations Which Meet In Inns,
Windmills and Boats.

A public house is one OF the last
places one would expect TO be used as
a place of worship. The inhabitants
of Twyford. n village near Winchester.
would not consider this al all nov
city, because for several years past
the Phoenix inn has been used Sunda :
for religious purposes The room in
which the religious services are held
will omfortably hold about 200 people
and opens at the back on to a pretty
tea garden The most remarkable fesl-
ture of the services is that they are Of
ten conducted while the public house
is open for business purposes. and the
customers can join IN the singing il
they are SO disposed.
There are two or three Instances OF
public houses which hare been con-
verted into churches, and there are
also two or three theatels which are
now places OF worship. The Fen dis
trict possesses eanalboat church
There are a large number OF people
who live some distance .way from any
church. and the canalboat church trav-
els from place TO place for the benefit
OF such folk. The boat will seat a
congregation of about 100.
The old chapel OF ease at Tunbridge
Wells has unique situation. 1t stands
in two counties and three parishes.
When the clergyman leaves the vestry.
he comes out of the parish of Frant of
Sussex. If he Is going TO officiate at
the altar. he walks into the parish OF
Tunbridge. in Kent. If. on the other
hand, he is going 20 preach the sermon,
he walks from the parish of Frant to
the parish of Speldhurst on his way to
the pulpit.
The chapel at Milton Bryant is stu
ated in the village pond. The reason
for the selection of this strange site
was because no landowner would
would grant any other position.
The WINDMILL church near Reigate
is familiar TO London cyclists. Not SO
familiar is the underground church at
Brighton. Owing to some ancient
lights" difficulty, the authorities could
not build up and as the site was "a
good one they decided to build down"

one set for the back entrance of his
park and one for the front"
In these hard times it is refreshing
