the doctor took them home with the idea
of slaughterirg them for his Sunday din

put them into the larder and thought no

midnight he was aroused, so he says, by
a groan proceeding from the aforesaid
larder. Inspection Of the room explained
the mystery.
One Of the fish had sprung from the
basin or pail and lay gasping upon the
floor, every now and then uttering
sounds similar to those which had dis
turbed Mr.. Palmer. Next day both fish
were prepared for dinner, but such was
their tenacity of life that both, after hav-

they had but recently been removed from

years ago he began to Go q sort Of street

him share, though not full share, in
the business. Once, on being taunted
on the street with wearing the blue rib
bon-"What does it cost you to wear
that ribbon?"-he was able to reply,
"a hundred thousand dollars"
He sold out his interest in the brewery
to his brothers and built in Mile End

projected but never begun by Keith

more people gather at the evangelistic

Antiquity Of Bell Founding.

The art of bell founding is undoubted-
~ of great antiquity. The Saxons are
known to have used bells in their
churches, although probably but small
ones, for the Venerable Bede, writing at
the end of the seventh century, alludes
to them in terms which seem to show
that they were not unfamiliar things.
The towers Of the Saxon period have
belfries of considerable dimensions in
most cases, and at Crowland abbey, in
South Lincolnshire, there was famous
peal Of seven bells many years before
the Norman conquest.
The monks at that time and for long
after were the chief practitioners of the
art Of bell founding-which indeed is one
of the many things those we'll abused
men have handed down to u.s. Their bells
were rarely without inscriptions, often
in very bad Latin, containing perhaps
some obscure joke, the point of which is
quite lost. More often they were of a re-
lgiOus nature, sometimes, we fear, not
unmixed with dash of superstition, as
when the bell declares that it's sound

caused pestilence and famine, lightning
and thunderstorms
AS rule, unfortunately they put no
dates on their bells, defect which has
been in some measure overcome by the
researches Of many enthusiastic campa-
nologists, but which is likely to keep the
early history Of bells shrouded in dark
ness for long time to cone.-Gentle-
