SOME CURIOUS CHURCHES.
Congregations Which Meet In Inns,
WindmiIIs and Boats.

W1ndmilIs ana Boats.
A public house is one of the last
places one would expect to be used as
a place cf worship. The inhabitants
OF Twyford, village near Winchester,
would not consider this at all nov
city, because for several years past
the Phoenix inn has been used Sunday
for religious purposes. The room in
which the religious services are held
will comfortably hold about 200 people
and opens at the back on to a pretty
tea garden. The most remarkable fea-
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 if
they are so disposed.
There are two or three instances Of
public houses which have been con-
veTted into churches, and there are
also two or three theaters which are
now places of worship. The Fen dis
trict possesses a canalbOat church.
There are a large number of people
who live some distance away from any
church, and the canalboat church tray
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 TunbriGge
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 al
the altar, he walks into the parish O1
Tunbridge, in Kent. If, OH the Othel
hand, he is going to preach the sermon
he walks from the parish of Frant t.
the parish of Speldhurst ON his way Il
the pulpit.
The chapel at Milton Bryant is stu
! ated in the village pond. The reason
| for the selection of this strange sit
was because no landowner woul'
would grant any other position.
The windmill church near Reigat
Is familiar to London cyclists. Not S
familiar is the underground church a
Brighton. Owing to some "ancien
lights" difficulty, the authorities cOul
not "build up," and as the site was
good one they decided to build down.

Skill In Throwing on Mail Bags.


The busiest clerk in any crew or car
is the one who is detailed to receive
and throw off the sacks and pouches.
To lift a heavy mail sack and throw it
from a car moving at the rate of a mile
a minute is n matter of good target
shooting. Looks easy enough" COM
mented one of the veteran clerks at the
letter case, land ii does seem as If a
man should be able to hit a station
platform without much difficulty, but
you see that station is passed and gone
in about one second. Then, the suction
of q train running at this speed is some
thing terrific, and until the knack of
throwing a pouch is learned man is

For Exercise why Not waikt

For Exercise why Not walkt

gymnasium. No other form Of exercise
brings so many muscles into play and
develops them 50 normally. The most
popular games are those I'm which
walking forms a prominent part. Golf,
croquct and In n sense cricket and even
bicycling merely give an excuse for
walking.
Every one knows how TO walk prop
erly. II Is because OF carelessncss that
so many walk badly. The body should
be carried erect, the chest well out, the
head back, while the arms should
swing freely at the sides. The pace
should be regulated TO ones strength.
Every one should walk fast enough
and far enough to get the body in n
comfortable glow. To get the best re-
suits from walking one should give his
undivided attention to t. In other
words, he should walk for the pleasure
Of 1t and not carry worries with him.
Excessive walking Is Injurious. New
er walk just after n heavy meal or aft
ter violent exercise. And after walk
1t Is well to rest for 10 or 10 minutes
before taking up severe mental work.
