Aneien. Church Customs.

In the age of witchcraft and SUI
perstition It was believed that the
fairies built the old kinks in Glas-
gov and that they had right to
them. So said Mr.. w. B. Paterson,
lecturing before the Old Glasgow
club. The accommodation afforded
the parishioners was very different
from the present luxurious age.
There were no pews in Scottish
kinks before the reign Of Charles 1.
The people had to bring their
stools with them, and those that did
not do this simply sat down on the
floor. For the evening service par
ishioners likewise brought candles
and candlesticks. On the question
of the separation of the sexes Mr..
Paterson mentioned the interesting
fact that there still existed a church
in the city where this rule was OBJ
served. Globe.

Early Opinion. Of th. Potato.

The useful potato, although in
troduced into England by Sir Wall
ter Raleigh in 1884, was for many
years little cultivated or appreci-
ated. In James I.'s time it sold for
2 shillings pound, and it did not
come into general use in many
parts of the country until the end
Of the eighteenth century. Morti-
mer's Gardeners Kalendar," pub
lshed in 170s, describes potatoes
as being "very like Jerusalem arti-
chokes, though not so good" and
adds, "Thev may perhaps prove use
full for sw'ne." And in Scotland re-
ligious writer's exhorted their read
ers to eschew the potato because it
was not mentioned in the Bible
London Chronicle.

THE LAFAYETTE TRAIL
Road to the Summit of Mount
Ascutney Had Singular Origin

The road to the summit of Mount
Ascutney in Windsor had singular
origin long since forgotten. In the
summer of 1926 ON the occasion of
General Lafayette's visit to this
country, it was planned asa feature
of his entertainments to erect house
on the summit and build road up
in order that their distinguished
guest might he able to say that he
had visited one of the highest of the
Green mountains in in his carriage,
aud beheld at one view fifty miles of
the beautiful valley OF the Connect
cut. Owing to his arrival one day
late at Windsor, and plans which
had been made for him lsewhere,
he resumed his journey through the
State without making The ascent
The house had been gone far many
years, and few repairs had been
made on rhe road, until in 1858,
after survey the previous year by
the late d. G. Linsley the road was
rebuilt over practically the route of
1925, and comfortable stone house
erected on the summit. The rnad
continued in use and was known az
the "Linsley road" until the great
fire of 1883 partially ohIiieraled the
track and discouraged it's use for
years
IL 1908 the road was once m re sur
veyed and rebuilt Some new routes
were used near the summit, but the
line Of the pathway OF 1925 was.
for the most part. still flIowed a

Odd surnannaa.

The most curious thing about the
odd surname is that more often
than not it had in its origin no con-
nection whatever with the things
with which it is associated. Thus
Hogg is only corruption Of Roger.
and Cookies has gradually assumed
that form from the village of Cock
hill. Oddly enough, this is espe-
cially true of fish names. Cod is a
corruption from Cuthbert. Chubb
comes from Job, Salmon from Sol
omon, and Trout and Turbot were
equally unconnected with fish in
their Observation-Disclosures Chron-
icle.

THE BURTON GHOST.
N Scared ths intrepid Explorer and
Killed HE Dog.


Where was there braver man, I
wonder, than Sir Richard Burton
Once, though, his face paled end his
breath came in gusts. A ghost did
it, of course, and this was the man
ner of it: Burton was told Of q
house in London-quite a poor sort
Of house, by the way--which was
said to be haunted. s1 do not be-
ieve it," replied Burton. Then he
was told that it was specially ter
rible kind Of ghost, and he said he
didn't believe that either. He
would go and see. To the empty
house (the three last tenants had
been found dead in bed, and such
things get talked about) went Bur-
ton with friend and dog. "Come
up with me-" said he to his friend,
and at his own request the compan-
ion locked Burton in the room and
took the key down with him. ~I
shall be all right here; I've got my
dog, too," the great traveller whis-
pered confidently. However, If I
ring get ready to come up, and
should ] ring twice-well, como
quickly"
The friend waited as he was bid.
Minutes passed like hours. His eyes
we're glued on the bell hanging mo-
ionless. A long wait. Full of fore
boding, he was on the point Of
breaking the conditions and going
up to prospect, when the bell did
ring. And before he had tackled
the first fight of stairs it pealed out
again and Up those stairs he
rushed, two and three steps at a
time. you may be sure. To open
the door was the work of an instant,
and then into his arms reeled Bur-
ton, almost dead with terror. '"The
place is accursed," he gasped.
"What have you seenP' begged tho
friend. Burton's head shook. "No,
no." he cried. "My poor dogs dead.
Pm almost palsied with fright.
More than that, no, no, cannot
tell you" Now, this is quite true,
and the house was Immediately aft
erward torn down. What did Bur
ton seep No one knows. He is dead
now, poor fellow, and no one ever
will. The three tenants could tell
us, but terror and death came to-
gether to them.-London Taller.

Tho Memorv Of Ants.

A remai kable fact in the physiol-
ogy of an is their memory. The
number of ants that go to make q
nest is enormous, yet they are all
personally known to each other and
are able to recognize members Of
their own community after pro-
longed absence. Sir John Lubbock
kept one of these remarkable in
sects from its home for a year. On
its return the relatives from whom
it had been SO cruelty separated rec
ognized their wanderer and welcom-
ed it back, while an ant introduced
from another nest was most inhos-
pitably treated, even murdered and
thrown out.
