If we may believe the Gen deman's Magazine he weighed 560 pounds. and the diameter of his body was no less than six feet. Fortunate ty, says the writer of his obituary mo- tice, he died in his parlor, for 1t would have been impossible to bring him downstairs in a coffin. Even as 1t was, the undertakers had to use a crane to lift the coffin on to car riage and to have the same machine in the churchyard to let it down into his grave.-Chambers' Journal.

A French belief con oerning the cat is that if the animal be carried ia a cart and the wind blow from it to the horses they immediately fall tired If any part of the horse man's clothing be made of cats skin the l eree wi4i feel as though il carried a double burden.

EAST WOODSTOCK

Mrs. Susan Child Rivers whose death was announced in last weeks issue was the eighth child of family of nine children, seven Of which were daughters, Mrs. Glide rsleeve, her sis ter, being the seventh. In view of her self-denying life your correspondent desires to make mention of her benevo- fences 10 those she conside red needy or seemingly overlooked in the communi- ty. She possessed very sympathetic nature and the poor and needy receiv- ed at her hand without her making an exhibit of her gifts. Her prejudices were very pronounced either in favor of or against a person and after her mind was made up it rarely yielded to persuasion. She was very fond of reading and what might have been lonely hours to her if she had not had the taste and habit which made a source of pleasure and comfort as she lived alone. It seemed to distress her mind somewhat as she felt the times were making too great departure from orthodoxy and talked great deal about il. She was very fond of ehil- dren and well acquainted with most of the school children and quite a mum. Der had formed such an attachment to her that greetings and gifts were given during the holiday season and at other times. Many have lost friend but pleasant memories will finger with them of her,
