A capital story relating to good old
times is still told in the Fen district
Of the eastern counties. AS is well
known by many and even now remem-
bered by some, bass viol was often
procured to help the choirs in parish
churches.
One lovely Sunday morning in the
summer while the parson was droning
out his drowsy discourse and had about
reached the middle a big bull managed
TO escape from his pasture and march
ed majestical1y down the road, below
ing defantly as he came. The parson,
who was somewhat deaf, heard the
bull below, but, installing the origin
OF the sound, gravely glanced toward
the singers seats and said IN tones Of
reproof:
81 would thank the musicians not to
tune up during service time. 1t annoys
me very much"
As may well be imagined, the choir
looked greatly surprised, but said noth-
ing.
Very soon, however, the belligerent
bull gave another below, and then the
aggrieved parson became desperately
indignant Cassell's Magazine.

Something For Nothing.

Some time ago there appeared in sew
eral Paris papers an advertisement OF
an obscure fruit dealer, in which he Of
fered to give prize Of 5 francs for the
largest apple sent to him. Then fish
caught at the bait with marvellous ra-
pidity, aad in less than a fortnight the
advertiser had received enough fruit to
stock his store for the season. Natu-
rally he was glad to pay 3 francs for
the largest Of the lot, and just as natu-
rally he kept all the unsuccessful speci-
mems for sale from his shop. Besides,
the advertising resulted in large in
crease in his business.

The Addraas He Got.

A Russian gentleman tells a funny
story Of his first encounter with the
English language.
The day after his arrival in London
he made call on friend in Park
lane, and on leaving the premises in
scribed in his notebook what he sup
posed to be the correct address.
The next day, desiring to go to the
same place again, he called cabman
and pointed to the address that he had
written down. The cabman looked
him over, laughed, cracked the whip,
and drove away without him.
This experience being repeated with
two or three other cabmen, the Rus
sian turned Indignantly to the police,
with no better results. One officer
would laugh, another would tap his
head and make a motion initiating the
revolution Of a wheel.
Finally the poor foreigner gave it up,
and, with a great deal Of difficulty,
recalling the landmarks which he had
observed the day before, found his way
to his friends house. Once there, and
In company with one who could under
stand him, he delivered himself Of q
hot condemnation Of the cabmen and
the police Of London for their imperti-
hence and discourtesy.
His friend asked for a look at the
mirth provoking address, and the
mystery was solved. This was the
entry:
''Ring the bell"

"For diplomatic kindness will never

The Poor Englishman's Oxford.


The poor mans varsity is the poly.

there are hardly worth knowing. In
London alone there are II Of these
splendid schools, where men and
women can learn, at small cost, use
full trades, music painting, and the art
Of thinking. There are clubs for cy-
cling, football, and all the games; there
are cheap excursions to all parts Of
Europe, SO that people can learn by
travel; there are concerts and enter
tainments, and little religion on Sun
days. For the best students there are
prizes and certificates. which help
people to get on in the world.
The idea is spreading all over the
country, because a graduate from a
polytechnic is apt to get better wages
than a graduate of Oxford Cambridge

the polytechnics of London have al
