Ringing For Gofer.

Among the queer church customs In
England is the one observed at New
ark parish church, called ringing for
gofer." This custom, which has lasted
for over 300 years, arose through a
wealthy merchant named Gofer losing
himself one October night in the forest
that then surrounded Newark. He
carried much money, and the forest
was infested with thieves. Suddenly
he heard the sound Of Newark bells
and was guided safely home by their
music. To commemorate his escape
Gofer left a goodly sum for Newark
bell ringers on condition that they
'.rang for Gofer' every year on Sun.
day nights in October and November.

HIS QUEST FOR A WIFE.
John Neweomb Was a Close Observer

anu we ssoS0 " S0sss
The sister of Simon Newcomb, the
great astronomer, tells in McClure's
Of their fathers John Newcomb's wan
behring's in search Of wife, whom he
had decided to select in accordance
with scientific theories:
"John Newcomb stopped at farm
houses for his refreshment, and In
each house, if there was daughter Of
marriageable age, he tarried perhaps
day or even longer to make study
Of the maiden. He always made him
self handy about the place. drawing
up water with the great well sweep,
bringing in tirewood--doing anything
that he could do and still keep near
the daughter.
disappointment met him at every
door. At one house the cooking was
poor, at another the house was not
neatly kept, at third there was scold-
ing or faultfinding, a want Of har-
mony-and in all the maidens lack
of desire for learning or education.
One young woman little knew by what
a narrow margin she missed her fate.
All was going smoothly till, when she
was molding the dough for the baking
pans, lie noticed that considerable
portion Of the dough was left in the
wooden knoading trough. He asked
her the reason for this, and her reply
was that she left it for the horse be-
cause he was fond Of it. She always
did this, she said; there was plenty
Want of thrift decided the young
man, and he shouldered his bundle and

IN A ROMAN CAB.
A Party Of Disguised Americans and
an overgrateful Driver.

A Party Of Disguised Americans and
an overgrateful Driver.
In Mr.. Howells' Roman Holidays
and Others" is this delightful story
Of an adventure in Roman cab:
In returning from the Pincio the only
cab we had been able to get was the
last left of the very worst cabs in
Rome, and we had hidden the driver
wait for us at the church steps, not
without some hope that he would play
us false. But there he was, true to
his word. with such disciplined fidelity
as that Of the Roman sentinels who
used to die at their posts. and we
mounted to ours with the muted
prayer that we at least might reach
home alive.
This did not seem probable when the
driver whipped up his horse. 1t ap-
peared to have aged and sickened
while we We're in the church. although
we had thought it looked as bad as
could be before. and it lurched alarm
fngly from side to side. recovering it.
self with plunge of its heavy head
away from the side in which its body
was sinking.
The driver swayed on his box. hav-
ing fallen equally decrepit. in spite of
the restoratives he seemed to have ap-
piled for his years and infirmities. His
clothes had put ON some such effect
Of extreme decay as those of Rip Van
Wrinkle in: the third act; there was
danger that he would fall on top of
his falling horse and that their raj
ment would mingle in one scandalous
ruin.
Via Sistina had never been so full of
people before: never before had it been
so long to that point where we were
to turn out Of 1t into the friendly OBJ
security of the little cross street which
would bring us to our hotel. We could
not consent to arrive in that form: we
made the driver stop. and we got out
and began overpaying him to release
us.
But the more generously we over
paid him the more nobly he insisted
upon serving US to our door.
At last, by such a lavish expenditure
as ought richly to provide for the few
remaining years of himself and his
horse. we prevailed with him to let us
go and reached our hotel glad. al
most proud. to arrive on foot.

coAxlNG SLEEP.
Simply . Question Of Will Pewsr and

Simply Question Of Will Power and
|. Self Suggestion.
Ordinarily we do not sleep by acct
dent or haphazard. We simply resolve
to sleep, and self suggestion plays a
great part in the production Of sleep.
We go through a variety Of actions.
all suggestive Of q change from our
normal waking condition. We un-
dress; we place ourselves in a COM
Portable position; we close our eyes;
we believe and expect we are going to
sleep, and the result is-sleep.
One Of the great preventives of sleep
Is the fear Of not sleeping, but writer
In Harper's Bazaar says that once this
fear is broken down we sleep anyhow.
The insomnia worries about his in
somnia, and this very worry deepens
the mischief; hence the sufferer should
suggest to himself again and again,
IF I sleep, well; If I don't sleep. I
will at least gain rest by keeping my
mind calm and my body relaxed"
In a word, our chances Of getting
sleep increase If we assume the ex-
ternal physical attitude which CORE
spends to sleep If we relax every
muscle and let it stay relaxed, If we
breathe lightly and regularly, If we
call up the imagination Of a sleeping
person and talk and think sleep to
ourselves, repeating silently and in a
quiet, dreamy fashion such formula
as this:
"There is no reason why I should
not sleep. Therefore can sleep.
Therefore will sleep. MY mind is at
peace. Sleep is coming. I am getting
sleepy. am about to sleep. am
