Bishop Buffers Generosity.

So many examples Of episcopal Gu,
pidity have been cited of late that the
average reader may be excused for be.
lieving the bishop Of a century or SO
ago to have been an incarnation of
greed. But against the Lu1mores, the
Watsons and the Porteouses may be
set the sanity Butler, whose "Analo-
gy" Is still used as a text book for
clerical examinations. Butler kept
open house at Durham. where he dis
pensed hospitality with a lavish hand.
On one occasion a man called at the
palace soliciting a subscription for
some charitable object. "How much
money Is there in the house?" asked
Butler Of his secretary. The secretary
after investigation replied that there
was f500. "Give 1t to him, then" re-
piled the philosopher bishop, "for it Is
a shame that a bishop should have so
much."-London Chronicle.

The Word "Person."

General Benjamin f. Butler, 1t Is
said, once asserted that a woman was
not a person." and a London suf.
fragette insists that the word person"
In its legal sense includes woman. The
word has had an interesting history.
Signifying by etymology something to
make a sound through, the Latin 'per-
soma" began by meaning an actors
mask with its mouthpiece. Then it
meant the character represented by
the player-"dramatis ~personae." Then
1t came to mean the part or character
n sustains in real life, and so the
persona ecclesiae," the man who rep
resented the church, became known
as a person" in a special sense and
was eventually spelled as "parson."
On the other hand, person faded
away to mean just anybody. And so,
though a woman naturally resents be-
ing referred to as a person" In Or

Where She Got the Money.

They were at the circus. The CONVEX
sation ran to the subject of how they
had financed their admission ticket
projects. One said she had gathered
rags and sold them. Another had help
ed her brother spade a garden. The
third member of the party presented
a sickly grin and seemed reluctant
about explaining where her half dollar
came from. An explanation seemed
absolutely necessary.

Last English King In a Battle.

The battle of Dettingen, in Bavaria,

between the British. Hanoverian and
Hessian troops $4,000 mem, under
command Of George H., and the
French troops 10000 mem. under
Marshal Noailles, which resulted In
the victory Of the allied troops. was
the last occasion on which an English
king fought on the battlefield. His
majesty continued the whole time in
the heat of all the action, which was
said by those who witnessed it to have
been as fierce a conflict as had ever
been known.
On the morning Of the battle the
king appeared in the same red coat
he had worn at Oudenarde. t%hirty-five
years before, taking his place at the
head of the seven battalions of guards.
About noon he ordered a general ad-
vance, and during the movements it
entailed he was very nearly taken by
the enemy. but was rescued by the
Twenty-secOnd regiment, who. in re-
membrance, wore a sprig of oak in
their caps upon the anniversary of the
battle for many years afterward.-Lon-

To Sleep Like a Top,

To "sleep like Il top" has probably a
very different origin from that which

The Children of the Great.

There is a tendency for children of
exceptional parents to regress toward
the average stock. Cation terms this
tendency flial repression. This, the
London hospital points out, applies
equally to exceptional physical and
mental characters. Thus, though tall
stature may run in certain families,
yet there is always a tendency to re-
vert to the mean average size. SINH
larly the children of a genius tend to
have somewhat less than their fathers
power, but more than the average Of
the race. According to Professor Pear
son. distinguished parents are just ten
times more likely to have distinguished
offspring that undistinguished parents.
Still, such cases as the Darwins, IA
Their and sons; the two Pitts, Philip and
Alexander the Great are exceptional.
Similarly also the children of a GRIM
inal tend to be less vicious than the
father, though morally inferior to the
average man.

otherwise. The first mention Of II

after SIX months siege in the year
1915 by Robert the Bruce. The CASTE
is built Of limestone and is not a ruin.
Until a few years ago 1t was used as a
