Legend of Westm nster Abbey.

To Sebert, who ruled the East SAX
ons in the seventh century as their
( first Christian king, is attributed the
foundation of the Westminster, 50
called to distinguish it from the east
ern cathedral, st. Paul's. According
to an eleventh century legend, the
church had been prepared in GIG for
conservation, by Mellitus, Bishop of
London; but storm broke out on the
eve Of the day appointed, so that the
river Thames rose and flooded the
sandy site called Thorny Island. Edric,
the Fisher. casting his nets, was hailed
from the Lambeth side by stranger,
who offered a rich reward to be rowed
over the ferry to Thorney. Then lights
streamcd from the Abbey windows,
heavenly voices were heard, angels
seen ascending and descending. To
the astonshed fisherman the stranger,
returning, then revealed himself as st.
Peter. keeper of the keys, who had
come down to dedicate the church
which was to be specially his own; in
witness whereof the fisherman took a
miraculous haul of salmon.
The bishop, who came next day with
the king, found his work done, but the
fisherman's gift of a tithe of the sal
mon he took became precedent, and
was followed by other fishers, even
after the COnfessOr's church had super
seeded the earlier building.

LIES Scars.

They say the world is round. and vet
often think it square,
So many little hurts we get
From the corners here and there.
But one great truth in life I've found,
While iOurneying to the west
The only folks who really wound
Are those we love the best.
The men you thoroughly dcspisc
Can rouse your wrath, tits true;
Annoyance in your heart will rise
At things mere strangers do;
Hut these are only passing ills;
This rule all lives will prove
The ranking wound which aches and
thrills
is dealt by hands we love.
The choicest garb. the sweetest grace.
Are oft to strangers shown:
The careless micn, the frOwning face
Are given to our own.
We tiatter those we scarcely know:
We please the feeting guest,
And deal full many Il thOlghtless blow
TO those who love us best.
Love does not grow on every tree.
Nor true hearts yearly bloom.
Alas for those who only see
This cut across the tomb!
But, soon or late. the fact grows plain
10 all through sorrows test:
The only folks who give us pain
Are those we love the best
