ONLY ONE SERVICE A YEAR
The Story of 2 Curious Little Church
 on an English Hilltop

There stands upon a hill in the viii lage of Uphill, the county of Somerset, a small and very old church, which is surrounded by caves in which the bones of all kinds of animals have been dis covered. This historic place of worship which looks down upon Uphill castle and the village itself, was at one time the only place of worship for miles around.
 For several years no Sunday services have been held within it's walls and the only time that the public is allowed to worship there is one night in the year on Christmas eve-when the vicar of Uphill or some other clergyman ofiici- ates. There is footpath leading up the hill to the church, but as the hill is very steep one and the distance great, very few people visit the church. It is by order of the ecclesiastical min isters that it is opened to the public once year.
 interesting edifee, one of which is to the effect that the church was pur- posely built on top of the hill so that the preacher could feel convinced of the sincerity of the faith of those who accomplished the task of climbing to it. The church has been visited by people from all parts of the world. It is the only building in England-probably ir the world--in which divine service is conducted only once a year.--Londor | Tit Bits.

CLEVELAND, Aug. THAT John D.
Rockefeller will live to be more than 81
years old is the prediction of DR.. H. B.
Biggar, his family physician. DIR. Big
gar watched Mr.. Rockefeller play golf
over the Forest Hill links yesterday and
at the finish declared that the Standard
magnate was likely to live more than
quarter of a century longer.
William Rockefeller, John d. Rocke-
fellers father, is still living and is 81.
DR.. Biggar said he saw no reason why
the master of Forest Hill should not live
longer than his father,
"Mr. Rockefeller has been born twice
physically, and is only IA years now. He
is growing up again and growing up
scientifically, adding to his muscle, to
his lungs, to his heart power with every
breath of fresh air he takes at Forest
HILL and with every drive he makes at
the golf links"
Mr.. Rockefeller come to Cleveland in
1S93 in the middle of the panic period,
completely broken in health and spirits
He could eat nothing which would nour-
ish him. His appetite was gone and his
nervous system a wreck
Doctor, I'm a sick man; I'm afraid

He asked the doctor to help him. After
few days Dr. Bggar went to Mr..
Rockefeller with this prescription: Drop
all business cares; take regular exercise,
keep in the open air, forget everything
but play, and play as if your life de-
pended upon it,
Mr.. Rockefeller carried out the pre-
scription and dieted religiously.
"A few years afterward we were talk
ing of his recovery says DIR. Biggar,
land Mr.. Rockefeller said to me: Doc
tor do you know how much it cost me
to get well? 1 told him of course I did
not. Well, DOCTOR he said, 1T cost me
just $5,000000. I lost that much by drop

LADY GODIVA RIDES
THROUGH COVENTRY
SHOCKS MINISTER'S, THOUGH SHE
WEARS CLOTHES.
Representation Given Of Historic Jour-
ney Through Streets by Which
City Was Relieved of
Burdensome Tax
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
COVENTRY, England, Aug 7-Mounted
on a white palrey and decorously clothed
clouds of gauze, a modern Lady Godiva
today gave a representation of the his
toric ride through the city's streets.
Coventry has been Lady Godiva mad for
many months
When a revival of the procession was
last witnessed in 1887 there were many who
desired a strict adherence to tradition,
even to the nudity of Lady Godiva, but
the anti-nudists effected a compromise,
and vaudeville actress whose speciality
is to display herself in groups of living
statuary was engaged to represent the
historic benefactress Of Coventry. The
actress, who is said to have complained
that she could make half dozen sum
mer frocks out of the gauze she was COM
PEELED to wear, took an hour and half
to arrange her trailing hair and long
draperies, and then a special committee
had to approve of the costume before the
Lady Godiva was permitted to take her
place in the pageant
Many of the local clergymen who had
been preaching against the ffeshings as
being suggestive of nudity left the city
temporarily, but most of the people of
the country and from $4,000 to 100000 from
the outside witnessed Lady Godiva as she
traversed the six miles.
Lady Godiva, who flourished in the
middle of the eleventh century, was the
wife of Leo Frio, earl of Chester.
She was woman of great beauty and
piety and the benefactress of many
churches and monasteries and, according
to legend, she begged her husband to
relieve Coventry of a burdensome tax,
and he consented to do so upon the con-
dition that she should ride nude through
the market place. This she did, covered
only by her long hair, and thus won relief
for the people.
According to some versions of the story,
the people were commanded to keep
within their houses while Lady Godiva
passed, and only one man disobeyed, and
he was miraculously stricken blind.
