THE SHOEMAKER SAINTS.
Story of the Roman Brothers Who
Perished by the Sword.

st. Crispin ard his brother, Girls
pirian always associated together
in the calendar), were two natives
of Rome who, having become con-
vcrts to Christianity, set out for
Gaa! to preach the faith about the
middle of the third century along
with St. Quiatin and others. The
brothers settled at scissors, where.
in imitation of the apostle Paul,
the preached publicly III the day
tine and worked with their hands
at i:ht, earning their own sub
s:s.cn;e By making shoes, though
nobly born. They Supplied the poor
at a low price, and leae;:d tells us
that an angel supplied them with
leather. The heather listened to
their instructions and were aston
ished at the charity, disinterested-
ness, p:etv and contempt OF glory
displaved in their lives, and many
were converted to the Christian
faith.
After thev had been thus engaged
for several years the Emperor Max
imianus Herculius came into Beige
Gaul, and a. complaint was made to
I'm against the brothers. He, de-
string to crafty their accusers as
well as to indulge his own savage
cruelty. gave ofders that they
should be brought before Rictius
Varus, the most implacable enemy
of the Christians of that time. The
saints bore with patience and con.
stancy the most cruel torments and
at length finished their course by
being beheaded with the sword
about 2s7 A. D.
According to Kentish tradition,
their remains, being cast into the
sea, were washed ashore at Romney
marsh. In the sixth century a
great church was built in their hon.
or at Scissors, and St. Eligius richly
ornamented the shrine.
From their martyrdom to the
present time they have been re-
garded as the patron saints of shoe
makers Who we're accustomed to
honor their day land are yet in
some towns) By great festivity. One
special ceremony vas a procession
of the brethren of the craft with
banners and music, while various
characters representing King Cris'
pin and his court were sustained by

ise to remember, when the guest bad
eaten bis four the host pressed him 70
d = more. The wife looked distressed,

Later the wife said to her husband:
"How could you urge him to have
more oysters when had explained to

Tn. u.r,I and the sunflowsr.

The laurel and the sunAower
have been found, according to
Country Life, to be of the greatest
use in damp situations. People who
live IN such spots, especially near
undrained land, think there is no
help for them but by removal Sue
oessful experiments have shown
that 1T is possible materially to i'm
prore the atmosphere in such neigh
borhoods by the planting of laurels
and sunflowers. The former give
offan abundance of ozone, while the
latter are potent in destroying the
malarial conditions. These two, If
planted even on the most restricted
scale IN a garden or any ground
caose to the house, will be found to
increase speedily the dryness and
salubrity of the atmosphere.
