The Widows Reason.

The widow Of a wealthy but irrev-
erent man wished to have an imposing
funeral for her departed and engaged
the services Of a noted preacher who
lived at a great distance from their
town. After the funeral she thanked
the eloquent man for his long and
beautiful discourse The minister said
to her:
Madam, when passed through
your town noticed quite number Of
churches. AS your husband always
lived here he must have been known
to the ministers Of this place. I am
at loss to know why you engaged
me to speak at his funeral, as am a
stranger to him and they knew him."
''The reason I employed you to speak
was that the others knew him toe
WELL" answered the widow.-Philadel.

ORIGIN OF A PHRASE.

ssGetting Into a scrape" Comes to Us
From the Game of Golf.
Not till quite recently has the true
explanation Of the phrase. getting
into a scrape," been popularity known.
It has long puzzled dictionary makers,
one suggesting that it is a corruption
of escapade, another connecting it with
a Swedish word skrap, to draw into
difficulties.
Golf, the royal and ancient game al
one time peculiar to Scotland, has OF
late become such a worldwide amuse-
ment that the mystery of this phrase
has practically disappeared. In Scot
land many Of the golf courses are laid
out on sandy downs bordering on the
sea- These are the very places where
rabbits abound.
One Of the perpetual troubles of 6
golfer was that his ball constantly
found a lodgment in these rabbit
'scrapes," from which it was diff
cult to drive it with accuracy; hence
special rules were framed at st. An
drew's, the Mecca Of golf, fixing wha1
was to be done when one got into {
scrape. The phrase thus started from
the golfers in the north and spread
southwark without it's practical bear
ing being known-London Chronicle.

Stage Ice Cream.

An amusing ''break" once occurred
in a production Of Camille" at the old
Walnut Street theater in Philadelphia.
In those days sea island cotton was
stage ice cream, just as molasses and
water was make believe wine-sherry
or port, according to the proportion of
molasses.
Armand and Camille were at table,
where they had been discussing such
viands as these, and their dialogue was
making the finest sort of an impression
on the crowded house. Enter a maid
servant with candelabra Of the wab-
bliest sort Imaginable The scene was
SO engrossing that the maid was hard.
~ noticed by the audience, but when
she had set down the candelabra be-
tween the unfortunate Camille and her
lover and one candle toppled over and
set the ice cream in a blaze the nerv.
GUS strain upon the house was broken
and the entire audience burst into a
roar Of laughter that brought down the
curtain.-Harper's Weekly

PULPIT HOURGLASSES.
At One Time Used to Time Sermons
In English Churches.

At One Time Used to Time Sermons
In English Churches.
It was after the reformation, when
long sermons came much into fashion
in England, that pulpit hourglasses
were introduced. The pulpits had be-
come very drumecclesiastic," and in
the middle Of the seventeenth century
Puritan preachers held forth for two
hours and more to drowsy hearers.
To remedy this abuse hourglasses
were fixed upon the pulpits, and we
read of a preacher in 1923 who was
attended by a man who brought aft
er him his book and hour glass;" Some
churches were also provided with half
hour glasses, and we may imagine
with what anxiety the parsons choice
was looked for by clerk and congre-
cation if his sermons were dull and
dry.
In the sixteenth century ironwork
stands were fitted for the reception of
the hourglass, some Of which were
very elaborate in design and Of cost
~ materials. They fingered in coun.

FLIES IN MANCHURIA.
They Swarm Everywhere and Are an
Intolerab1e Plague.

They Swarm Everywhere and Are an
IntolerabIe Plague.
Manchuria is the land Of flies. They
ravage it like an Egyptian plague. If
you have not experienced it, it is al
most impossible to realize how loath-
some are these black swarms. Early
in the morning they descend from the
ceiling and crawl over your face and
hands, into your ears and nostrils.
Friendly meetings are held in your
hair, and fights take place in the cor
ners of your eyes. There is not glass
or cup in which they are not to be
found drowned in masses. They buzz
out Of sugar bowls and dishes, they
swim in the sauce of every dish we
eat. They scurry in great numbers
over the tablecloths; they cover bread
and meat as solid body which the
eye cannot penetrate; they make
everything alive-ceiling, floor, walls,
furniture, bed, the paper on which /
write this letter, the pen in my hand
and the ink am using. Everywhere
these small black things crawl and
buzz as in a repulsive delirious vision
But the evening is the worst time OF
all. Satisfied and drowsy, they settle
themselves where it best suits them
and they are not to be got rid Of. Sc
one brushes them, only to be sickened
still by the black, yellow and red spots
which they leave on ones skin, or
ones tablecloths, tables, linen, paper
everything. Truly the flies own Man
churia, increasing by millions in its
dust and mud, an intolerable plague

THE FROGS SKIN.
Remarkable Manner In Which It Alb
serbs Air and Water.

Remarkable Manner In Which 1t Alb
serbs Air and Water.
The frogs skin is a breathing ma
chine. The supply of air is a neces-
sary addition to that taken in by or
binary breathing. The skin is most
remarkable for its powerful absorp-
ton of water, due to the numberless
minute pores. He can soak up half
his weight of water in an hour
AS the skin perspires quite as free
" as it absorbs, we can comprehend
sary. Besides the loss from evapora-
ton there is the stopping of skin
breathing also. because the skin must
be kept moist and soft to absorb fresh
air and give off used air from the sys-
TEN. You have noticed the cold, clam
my feeling of the skin of the frog
when you have handled him. The
soaking of water is the cause. If you
put a redhot iron on a frogs flesh he
will not feel it, simply because of the
cold water in his skin, which the heat
turns into vapor, escaping under the
iron, but if hot water be dropped upon
him he will instantly jump from pain,
as it Immediately strikes into the skin.
This moisture is safeguard against
drying up, and there is still another,
which is an interior sack for storing
water. Like the camel, it thus keeps
supply which carries the amphibian
over many dry place when it would
otherwise lose all it's moisture and die

OLD TIME PROBLEMS.

SGnOOlOOO6 fOSer6 FOR the man VINO
Knows 1t All.
Schoolboys and girls of today who
think they are oppressed by problems
requiring the use of both English and
metric units of weight and measure
would be appalled, by an examination
of some of the text books their grand
mothers studied The author of "Old
Time Schools" quotes many questions
which are in language unintelligible
today.
''How much will 10 serons of cochi-
neal come to- asks an arithmetic pub

'sHow much will 189 bazaar mauds,
81 seer and 8 chittacks of sugar come
to at rupees per maud?''
Any one who had finished course
in that book was evidently equipped
to go as supercargo in an old fash
Toned merchantmen. But who of to-
day would know for what he was
equipped when he had struggled with
the next one?
"Deduct the tare and the tret and
divide the suttle by 1853, and the quo
tient will be the cloff, which subtract
from the suttle, and the remainder will

1t becomes scarcely more Ineligible

The Arctic Iceberg.

which may perhaps tear a hole in the
bow of an ocean liner and which has
been known to send smaller vessels to
the bottom, has been many years in
the making. It starts in a fake of
snow somewhere in the great ice cap
Of Greenland. From the ice cap, which
is perhaps half a mile thick, the aecu-
mutation Of many years Of arctic
snowstorms is forced by the enormous
weight of the cap through great val
legs in the Greenland continent. The
snowflake becomes a part of a glacier
and starts on it's way to the sea.
