THE COLD WATER ORDEAL.
1t Was Once an Important Test OF
Guilt or Innocence.

The cold water ordeal was one of the
most important tests of guilt or inno-
cence a few hundred years ago. If the
accused floated, he was guilty; If he
sank. he was innocent. In the twelfth
century some altar vessels were stolen
from the cathedral of Laon, and the
learned Anselm proposed that child
from each parish and then child from
each household should be put to the
test and so on until the guilty one was
found. The proposition raised a great
cutlery, and the people clamored that
those who had easiest access to the
church be the first to undergo the or
deal.
This looked reasonable enough. So
the bishop ordered the six priests of
the cathedral to prepare for the test.
In the meanwhile Anselm thought TO
try the experiment himself as pre-
liminary test. So he was bound and
placed in q tub of water. To his great
satisfaction as we'll as discomfort he
promptly sank The day arrived and
with 1t an immense crowd to see the
trial. The first priest sank, the second
f1oated, the third sank the fourth float
ed, the fifth sank, and then Anselm
himself-wonder Of wonders-in spite
of experiments and protested innocence
doated around with the buoyancy OF an
air bubble. While he was serving his
sentence in prison Anselm found time
to write learned treatise on the IN
expediency of the Water Ordeal and
Its Failure In Many Cases"

New Zealand Mockins Birds.

The Poe honey eater is one of the
commonest and at the same time hand
soonest Of the New Zealand birds. The
neck is ornamented with frill of curly
feathers of a greenish color with white
centers, and the throat is adorned with
a tuft Of wlGte feathers, which has
gained for it the popular name of par
son bird" an appellation appropriate
not only because of this decoration, but
because of the resemblance of Its pc
culiar attitudes when singing to the
gesticulations INDUCED In by exuDer-
ant lecturers when wishing to drive
home their points. The bird is an ex-
cellent mimic and can be taught to re-
peat short sentences with extraordina-
ry clearness and also to whistle short
songs quite as well as parrot.
