An old London dining club. the Dilet-

club. for. in addition to their subscrip-
ton, members had to pay fine when
any money was bequeathed them. In

all the members have to make COM
plete circuit of the dining table before

rule still survives that every member
who shall produce on the table a dish
of tea or coffee must pay into the gen
eral fund guinea for every such
drink.-London Spectator.

lardast Watar Tank.

The water supply system of Calcut.
ia includes the largest water tank in
the world. 1t covers an area of two
and a half acres. and the total weight
when it is full of water is 1900 tons.
There are thirty-two miles Of steel
joists in the vertical columns and brac-
ings and in the foundations twenty
miles of steel Joists and tie bars.
The capacity of the tank is $500 900
gallons OF water. The tank acts as a
balancer and to assist the pumps when
they cannot send sufficient water into
the mains to meet the demand. During
the night hours. when the pumps pro-
vide more water than is required, the
excess quantity goes into the tank.
When the demand is greater the water
from the tank flows automatically into
the mains.-New York Herald.

SLEEPING IN CHURCH.

1t is a matter or common expert
