Not a Clerical Mission.

OF a certain bishop, famous as one
of the plainest men in England. the Liv-
erpool Post tells a pleasing tale. One
day, as this homely parsOn sat In an
omnibus, he was amazed by the per-
sistent staring Of fellow-passenger,
who presently said:
You're parson, amt your
'Yes."
Look ere, parson, would you mind
coming 'ome with me to see my wife?'
Imagining the wife was sick, the cler-
gyman went with the man. On arriv-
ing at the house the man called his
wife. and pointing to the astonished
parson said:
Look e ere, Sairry! Yer said this
morning as l wur the hugliest chap in
England. Now, just yer look at this

Many Threads, One Needle

1t looks impossible, yet it is really quite
easy, to put several threads through the
eye Of needle. The first thing necessary
Is needle with a long eye like that in an
ordinary darning needle, and through this
must be put a thread about six feet long.
This thread is then to be drawn through
the needle into two equal lengths and next
at distance of about yard from the eye
the two threads are TO be carefully uu-
twisted and the needle is TO be passed
through the two loops which are formed in
this way. AS result of this preliminary
operation the thread has been drawn through
two invisible ears and everything is ready
for the performance OF the trick itself.
If you entertaining a company you
may now seat yourself al table and safely
promise that without looking at your hands
you will put from eight TO ten new threads
through the eye of the needle. All you have
to do is to hold the needle upright with your
right hand and then grasp one of the threads
at point between the eye and the small
loops and draw it in such manner that
these loops will pass through the eye for in
doing so they will naturally carry with them
the threads which have been passed through
them. There are now three threads through
the needle, and the operation here described
can be continued with them

En1peror's Rare Silver.

No ruler in Europe has such costly and
magnificent collection Of eilverware as
Kaiser Wilhelm, and In 1t there are few
pieces which ara more priced than those
designed to be used By the Emperor him
self. and they are constantly used either
by him or by some member Of his family.
When the Emperor (then Prince William
married the Princess Augusta Victoria, on
February 81, 1851, the cities Of Germany pre-
eented him and his bride With silver ser
Vice containing 257 pieces, and valued at
400, 900 marks, and Of this service thepieces
of silver shown In the picture form part.
From the time Of Frederick William l. the
Emperor's ancestors had been collecting
choice sflverware, and, though many Of their
treasures were sacrificed In perilous or needy
times. there were still many wonderful speci-
mems OF the s!lversmith's art IN the imperial
palace when the present Kaiser assembled The
throne-so many, indeed, that their value
was estimated at 5000, 600 marks.
A few Of these treasures were recently
photographed by the Emperor's permission,
and 1t is from one OF these photographs that
the accompanying picture was made.

For Lifeless Patients.

Paradoxical, isn't it-hospitals for life
less patients? One would naturally suppose
the only proper disposal to be made Of
lifeless patient would be via the method
known as % six feet UNDER or the crematory.
Not so. however. There are patients-and
patients.
At the Dolls Hospital patients may be seen
in all stages OF crippledom-some even decap-
itated and minus Ill requisite members. One
would imagine, as far as expense IS con-
cerned, better judgment would be displayed
in the purchase of an entire new mannikin.
But that discolored headless trunk is dear
to some childish heart. 1t is possibly known
by the name Of jamie"
An obstinate refusal to accept any unwel-
come successor to the beloved jamie" is gen.
orally the result of we'll meant but unsuc-
cessful Intentions. So Jamie" to the hos
pital goes. and by means of expert surgery
is transformed from multiated chrysalis
into beautiful Partisan butterfly but not
withstanding the metamorphosis retains the
paramount virtue Of being dear old jamie"
On the books of the Hat Hospital are regis
tered many unique and curious patients,
ranging in style from the aristocratic O. tile
sometimes of the vintage OF '49) to the
jaunty sailor or natty derby. Apparently
these have seen many summer, to say
