REAL ENGLISH HOUSEHOLD.
A Kind Of Domestic Service That L.
Passing Out Of Vogue
Rapidly.


The old English household, it
seems, will soon be a thing of the
past, says Goodwin Smith, in the
Independent. The writer remem-
bers one in England a good many
years ago in which there were
FIVE servants whose united terms
of service in that family were
about 230 years. They were thor
Oughly attached to that which
was their home almost as much as
it was the home of their master
and mistress, careful Of its inter
estS, never letting anything which
they could do for it themselves be
done elsewhere, jealous for it's
hQspitable name and honor.
When the household was broken
up by the deathsO Of its master and
mistress they took their pension
aAdARent into no IOther service.
They were simple people; little ed
nGated, with vision pretty much
bannded by thevlimits Of the-eoun,

People who were present smiled at

place between two young ladies at q
luncheon recently. One of them, 3

Word Corrnntion.

81 lately heard" says writer in T.
P.'s London Weekly, "of a country
inn which boasted for its sign, The
Jackass.' Word corruption like this
has given many quaint signs to our
hostelries. Among the better known
inns are The Goat and the Compass,
corrupted from the words, God en-
compasseth u.s. The Bull and Mouth,
from the Boulogne mouth after the
naval combat before Poulogne harbor,
and The Pig and WHISTLE from the
peg and wassail,' alluding to the pegs
driven into the old wassail bowl to
mark the point to which the topper
might drink as his turn comes round.
The sign, common in Lancashire, of the
Stanley arms, an eagle carrying a
child, is popularity referred to as The
Bird of Bantlin'.'

0nr OF tisc F'Erio;;s VVl:iSDeriuE Places

among the uotablc whispering places
of the world is the Ear of Diony-
sius" of ancient Syracuse. 1t is in
the shape of IL paraboiic curve, ending
ID an elliptical arch. with sides PAL
aliel to its axis, perfectly smooth api
covered with a sight stalactitic incrUs-
tation that renders it's repercussionS
amazingly sonorous. 1t is 64 feet high,
from II to So in breadth and 1S1 deep.
1t has an awful and a4omy appear
ance, which, with its singular shape.
perhaps gave rise to the popular AMI
amusing paradox that Dionysius had ie
constructed for the confinement OF
those whom he deemed inimical to his
authority and that from the little
apartment above he could hear all the
conversation among the captives who
were brought to the ancient town of
Syracuse in the time of its Splendor,
when it was the largest in Sicily. The
sound of words uttered with low
voice is augmented in vaults or gai-
leries so as to become audible at con-
siderable distance from the speaker.
A like effect takes place in less de-
gree when sound ascends from the bot
tom of a deep we'll or when words are
uttered at one extremity of a long cor
ridor or passage in building. If a
pin be dropped into well the sound
produced when it strikes the water is
distinctly heard at the mouth or the
sounds of words spoken near the sur
face of any well is similarly augment
ed Try it.-New Orleans mesDemd-

Marrying on Account.

Rev. Mr.. Williams was the Congre-
gational minister in the village Of
Winslow, Me-, several years ago. One
evening, says a correspondent of the
Boston Globe, four young people called
at the parsonage. Two of'them wished
to be married.
The papers In the case were legal, so
Mr.. Williams performed the ceremony.
The other couple acted as bridesmaid
and best man. The groom was the son
of a we'll known man in the town, and
as the happy couple were leaving the
parsonage the young man whispered to
Mr.. Williams:
"Just charge it to father, parson. 1t
will be all right"
