Footed Thousands Of Miles.

1t is astonishing what distances can
be covered by men who are by no
means pedestrians in the ordinary ex-
ercise of their callings. The organist
of church in rural England who died
a few years ago aad walked twenty
miles to play his organ every Sunday.
For fifty-one years he had done his
Sabbath tramp, falling only once to
put in an appearance. and never once
being late.
