First Hieh Pews in Churches.

During the reign of william and
Mary in England a worthy bishop
complained to the latter that the
ladies of the court were wont to Ak
their eyes on their neighbors rather
than on him during his discourse. 1t
apparently never occurred to the d.
Yine that the fault might lie in the
sermons themselves.
BY consent of the Queen high pews
were introduced to prevent wander
ing eyes. "As for the young ladies'
for whose spiritual welfare they were
devised" says a writer, their indig-
nation was only surpassed by the
rage of their admirers" From that
time high pews were very commonly
placed in churches.
