for when he reached the end of it, op-
posite a circle of light which came
from one of the ships port holes, he
found the water many feet below.
But he was too expert a diver and
swimmer not to know how to enter
the water from that distance without
making splash. Letting himself
hang rigidly at full length. with his
toes bent downward and close together,
to form a point, he released the rope
and shot into the water like wedge,
leaving scarcely ripple upon the
surface. When he rose he was twenty
yards from the vessel.
Presently he glanced over his Shout

if they would be significant to the

At that moment a little child was
passed up to the platform and the
bishop took it in his arms. Lost
child" were the whispered words.
The baby put its dimpled arms around
the bishops neck and laid its head
upon his shoulder. its yellow curls
mingting with his gray hair.
Lost child" said the bishop. in his
deep. sympathetic voice, does anyone
in the audience know this baby or
to whom it belongs? viii the father
and mother come and claim it?"
There was silence and the baby
nestled closer, and the women who sat
near said OH"
Then a man was seen making his
way to the altar; it was the baby's
father. Instantly the child stretched
out its arms to go to him. Then, as
he gave it up. the bishop said:

waiting to receive them. So, go to

Down on the Wenham golf course. a
few weeks ago new member was
playing around the links for the first
time. 1t was really his first serious
effort to play golf. He made pretty
good strike-off from an elevated tee
across a valley to the top of hill
about seventy-ffve yards beyond.
Thinking to have a little practice
across the valley, he struck his ball
back toward the green beside the tee
whence he had previously struck off.
The ball sailed gracefully over the
hill, and to his inexpressibe surprise
the player heard it go "kerchunk"
into the hole on the green. He mad
struck ball seventy-five yards and
landed ii in the hole. Probably few
players ever did such thing, and this
player says he does not expect ever
to do it again if he plays golf for a
quarter of century. II was the luck

An American woman tells an anus
ing story against herself, resulting
from her blissful ignorance of any Ian
guage but her own. She was one OF
three American girls travelling in Italy.
They had come to Europe with the
laudable determination to see famous
people as well as all famous places;
and in pursuance of this plan, while in
Milan, they paid a visit to Sig. Verdi.
Verdi received his unexpected visitors
graciously, but as they were taking
leave. he raised his voice slightly say
ing. Roberto" She, imagining this
must be the Italian equivalent for
farewell" raised her voice also. and
looking him full in the face. exclaimed
in her turn Roberto" then turned to
discover. TO her dire confusion, that
Sig Verdi had merely been calling his
man servant to show them the door.
After that she took lessons in Italian.
