A DISTANT BELFRY.
English Church With "a Bell Tower
Half a Mile Away.

English Church With "a Bell Tower
Half a Mile Away.
1t is generally supposed that the vii
lage church of East Bergholt, Suffolk,
is the only one in England which pos
sesses an entirely distinct building for
its belfry. The bells of this church are
hung in shed many yards away from
the church and are worked from above
instead of from beneath.
The church of Warmsworth, how
ever, village situated about two miles
from Doncaster, can boast of a belfry
which is about half a mile away from
the church. As the crow flies the dis
tance between church and belfry, which
is known as Bell Tower, is 1850 feet,
the distance by road being about half
a mile
The belfry is by no means a make
shift building. The tower, in fact, is
said to date back to the twelfth cen.
tury, and the reason of its isolation
forms a rather curious story. The
church was originally built on its pres
ent site to accommodate the villagers
of both Warmsworth and Baby, the
latter village being half mile from
the former
The tower was then placed in Warns
worth in order that the parishioners
might hear the bell, which stops ring
ing a quarter Of an hour before the
service in order to enable the bell ring
er to get to the church in time.-Lon-
don Strand

A Trite Saving.

It is trite saying that no man Is
stronger than his stomach. DIR. Pierce'S
Golden Medical Discovery strengthens
the stomach-puts it in shape TO make
pure, rich blood-helps the liver and
kidneys to eXpel the poisons from tho
body and thus cures both liver and kid
ney troubles. If you take this natural
blood purifier and tonic, you will assist
your system in manufacturing each day
a pint of rich, red blood, that is invigo-
rating to the brain and nerves. The
weak nervous, run down, debilitated
condition which so many people suffer
from, is usually the effect of poisons in
the blood; it is often indies ted by pimples
or boilS appearing on thS skin, the face
becomes thin and the feelings cblue."
DIR. Pierce's Discovery cures all blood
humors as well as being a tonic that

CHlLDREN'S GRIMES.
Arson, Theft and Train WrecIzina
Common, Forgery Rare.

Arson, Theft and Train WreckinR
Common, Forgery Rare.
Children's crimes are recognized by
criminologists as a large and impor-
tant branch Of criminology. The COM
monest of children's crimes are arson,
stealing and train wrecking, and the
rarest is forgery.
Arson, in the country especially, is
frequently a crime of childhood. Coun-
try children set fire to haystacks, barns
and sheds in order to see the great
bright flames leap skyward. Children
commit arson, in a word, out of love
of fireworks.
Children often wreck trains. Some
times they do this from reading about
romantic train wreckers. More often
they do it out of curiosity. They pile
instructions on the track to see what
will happen. They have no idea that
anything very serious will happen.
Children, Of course, steal a good deal.
The best of men and women, looking
back on their childhood, can recall
many theft. Stealing is natural.
Children now and then murder. Their
motive Is always jealousy. Thus In
Vienna a boy Of ten, jealous of his
brother and sister, who seemed to be
more petted than himself, killed both
Of them and then took his own life

RIFLE SHOOTING.
Develops the Arms, Lungs and ChOa'
and Trains the Eye.

Develops the Arms, Lungs and Ghost
and Trains the Eye.
1t is not only the muscles Of the arm
which are tested by properly organ
iZed rife shooting. 1t supplies an ex-
cellent exercise for the chest and
lungs. One of the first things the young
rifle shot has to learn Is how to take
deep breath, to fill the lungs with air,
and then to hold the breath while the
rifle is kept absolutely steady and the
finger is gradually tightening on the
trigger. A glance at any successful
rifle shot will show you man with
deep chest and full powers of breath
ing.
Any form of recreation which trains
the muscles of the arm and exercises
the chest and lungs would seem likely
to be beneficial to health, but If that
is not enough there is the unequaled
training which rifle shooting gives to
the eye and to the hand working with
the eye. The writer remembers hear
ing a musketry instructor boast that
he had heightened not only his own
sight, but the sight of scores Of boys
whom he had taught how to use their
eyes in aiming at target, by two or
three hundred yards, simply by con-
tinued practice at long distance shoot
ing. 1t is astonishing what results can
be obtained in this way by placing
rife on a sand bag raised on a tripod
and making the pupil aim as accurate
ly as he can at any distant object. The
eye can be trained, of course, equally
well, though the sight will not neces-
sarlly be heightened, by aiming at OBJ
jects close at hand.-London Spectator

The Way In Turkey.

In the days when NJ. Paul Cambon
represented the interests of the French
republic at Constantinople Mme Sarah
Bernhardt, who had been touring in
eastern Europe, was desirous Of giving
a dramatic representation at Yildiz
kiosk. The sultan was willing, and the
terms were duly arranged with the
keeper of the wardrobe, the worthy
pasha who has the control of all enter
tainments at Yildiz But the pasha
held out his hand for more backsheesh
than La Belle Sarah felt inclined to
give, and so the long looked for rep
resentation did not take place Sarah
Bernhardt lost by it $1,000 and the
coveted order of the Chefekat. Her

A Ouafnt EDitauh.

The following epitaph is copied from
a tombstone in Brandon, VT, marking
the grave Of a child who died at the
age of few days:
Sweet maid. she glanced into our world
to see
A sample Of our misery.
She turned away her languid eye
To drop tear or two and sigh.
Sweet maid, she tasted of life's bitter
cup,
Refused to drink her portion up.
She turned her little head aside,
Disguised with the taste, and died.
