Among the many quaint supersti-
tons which have survived In rural
England are some interesting tradi-
tons about the building Of the Oldest
churches. The story goes that they
were originally Intended by the me
diaeval builders to be erected on other
sites, but the stones being persistently
removed during the nighttime by de
mons to the situations they at present
occupy the builders proceeded with
their erectlons on the sites thus super
naturally selected and were not fur
ther interfered with. Though many old
relics, such ms stone collins and TO
man affairs, have been used by thrifty
farmers for drinking troughs, buttery
stones and such like purposes, they
have not been desecrated with impuni-

ly afterward- every one was too
busy then to remember that all their

Mrs. Carter and the other women

''Nell, darling, are you hurt" Jack's
voice was tender with real concern as
he remorsefully wiped the single red
drop which oozed from the dear arm.
She was clasped In real mans hug
this time, and she crept close like a
huttering, frightened bird into its nest.
Her stubborn little heart melted into
gratitude, admiration and love and
soon stilled its tumultuous fear throbs
into a rapturous answer to the manly
one that beat against It. e
Her trembling arms stole about his
neck, and her ripe lips met his, drink

Professor Sommerville used some
times to narrate the strange error that
was once made by French explorer

q Journey to Kairwan and had drawn a
map Of the country he passed through.
The singular thing about this map was
that the name "Mnarifsh" appeared 30
many times on 1t. A river would be
the Maarifsh river; a mountain would
be Mount Maarlfsh; a village, lake,
a valley, each would be called Maar-

traveller, "what 'maarlfsh' means in
