A Bishops Comment.

Bishop w. A. Chandler was once adj
vocating a more liberal loOsing OF the
purse strings and told his audience that
several years before he sent an article
to a paper in which he said, "We pray
too loud and work too little" The
compositor, consciously or unconscious
ly. perpetrated little joke, for when
the article appeared it read, "We bray
too loud and work too little" 81 let il
go at that" said the bishop. "The fact
is, believe the printer was right, and
l never ventured to correct him."

a Wildcat and a Fox.

Two Colorado men were out driving
near Pine creek when they saw a red
fox coming down the road at full speed
and about twenty feet in the rear a
wildcat. The men had a view Of the
race for nearly a mile. The pace was
terrific, and neither runner seemed to
gain an inch on the other for the whole
distance. But the cat evidently had
more endurance and would have over
taken the fox had il not been for the
men In the buggy. Reynard chose the
lesser OF two evils and ran up boldly,
passing the men like an arrow, but
the wildcat stopped at sight Of them
and, after a seconds hesitation, skunk
into the bushes and gave up the chase.

Fourteenth Century Life,

In the fourteenth century people lived
in mud huts, with a rough door and no
chimney. 1t was not till a century lat
er that the erection of a chimney was
considered more than an indulgence in
luxury, a fire commonly being built
against the mud plastered wall of the
hut and the smoke escaping through
the roof. All furniture was of wood
Most persons slept on straw pallets,
with log Of wood for a pillow. Even
the nobility had no glass in the win
dows during this time. Cleanliness was
not a Characteristic Of the people, and
Thomas a. Beckett was considered more
than necessarily nice because he had
the floor of his house strewn with fresh
straw each day.

NapoIeon,s Nicknanes

Napoleon BOnaparte had many niek-
names, many Of them bestowed in sd
miration and devotion by his soldiers,
such as the playfully ironic Little
Corporal" while on the other side Of
the silver streak he was known by
less complimentary sobriquets. "OId
Boney" was then a bogy at the men,
ton Of whom more than merely chill
dren were terrified and grew pale,
while many pious persons even be-
lieved that he was the "beast" mys-
teriously referred to in the book of
Revelation under the name Of 1895"
and many ingenious attempts were
made to show that the letters of his
name could be transmitted into this
number.-LOndon Globe.

EireIess Florence.

Italy in winter is a bad place for
folk who love a fire. Florence in par
ticular is subject to fogs that would
not discredit London in November, and
when one Of the piercing gales, known
as tramontane, is blowing, the cold is
equal to one of our bitterest days in
March. Yet for generations the Flor.
entines have built their houses with
out f1replaces. The sole concession &c
human weakness for warmth aud com
fort consists in the ''scaldino," a little
pot Of glowing wood ashes to be plac-
ed under the owners chair. But even
the use of this by man is considered
bad taste and effec,inate. - London
