\ Remarkable Church.

A small watering place in Austria named Eichwald can boast of possess ing a most remarkable church. It was first built by an Italian architect at Venice at the expense of Prince Carlos Clary-Aldringen, great admirer of Italian architecture. When 1t was fin ished, the church was taken to pieces again and packed in thousands of num- bered cases for transportation to Eich wald. At this place in Austria 1t was eventually. rebuilt and then made over to the inhabitants as a free gift from the prince.

Queer Nesting Places.

Birds seek queer places in which to build their nests. The robin often be- gins nesting operations in February. Any old pot, basket or can which is lying in d corner of q garden seems 10 be taken possession of by robins. They even build their nests in flowerpots. on chairs. in bags and tins. old kettles and variety of other odd places. But perhaps the most remarkable place of all where robin built its nest was ill or on cows tail. The tail was hang ing on the wall of a butchers slaugh- ter house in England, and the robin built coZy nest among the long hair at the end of the appendage.

Commended by Judge for BrsvIty and
Common Sense.
Prior to the commencement of A
Term OF court at Manchester, N. H.,
several years ego. Judge Doe. In his
usual brisk way, requested the sheriff
to invite some clergymen to make the
customary opening prayer, provided
one could be found who would bs
brief.
The sheriff, in his quest to fill the
Dill. met the Rev. Mr.. Buckley, q min.
lister who had charge of one of the
city churches. The sheriff told him
what was wanted. that the prayer must
be short, and suggested that the
quicker he could earn the y3 fee al.
lowed the more satisfactory would be
bis efforts.
While demurring to the mercenary
ana commercial spirit Of the invita-.
tion, Mr.. Buckley concluded to accept,
and Immediately repaired to the court

Judge. call Of silence by the sheriff.
ana the minister's dignined form
arose. With closed eyes and solemn
visage he slowly and impressively de-
hvered the following brief prayer:

bless these lawyers; make them feel
tnat life Is short and time Is precious,
not TO be wasted in empty declama.
tion, for Christ's sake, amen"
Judge Doe afterward said this
snouid be adopted as model prayer
for such an occasion.
