Anticlimax frequently occurs in the
literary efforts of natives in India. par
ticularly when they have occasion to
petition Europeans for favOrs. The
following is a fair example:
will the presence, whose reputation
for justice is known from east to west
and whose countenance spreads joy
among his interiors. who are as the
sands Of the seashore in number, gra-
ciously deign to take hut an instant's
notice Of him who has the almost de-
liriOus honor to name himself as one
Of the most unworthy among the serv-
ants of the protector of the poor. and
will the favorite son Of the Lord of the
universe magnanimously overlook the
amazing presumption in asking him for
the payment of bill Of two annas for
hen feed?"-ChicagO Record Herald

NOT A GOOD JAIlER.
Still, the 6urran Sentry Was Some
what In q Cuandary.

The warders in Burmese jails are
nearly always men from the Puniab
and northern India. They are large
and muscular. but the principal reason
for selecting them is that they are not
Buddhists. The BuTmgn is sometimes
employed as warder. but his Bud
dhist education often causes his preiu-
ices to come in collision with his otii-
cial duties. as in the case OF one
warder
4 phoongyee. or Buddhist priest. in
jail for stealing. had been placed in
solitary confinement FOR disobeying the
prison rules. His influence as priest
had persuaded BNman wardcr to
procure him some betel nuts. which.
being discovered in his possession,
caused his punishment.
The stone cell in which the priest
was confined had a plank supported ut
both ends hy insertion into slots in the
walls. The plank served as bed, and
at night the priest jumped on it again
aifl again in order to force the ends
out of the shallow sockets.
The Burman sentry peeped into tho
aperture of the door and asked him 10
dcsist.
The convict replied that he was a
upon raised bed.
BY this time he had got the board
free and. to disarm the sentry's sus-
picions. lay down upon II and feigned
sleep. The sentry returned to his post.
but few hours later he was alarmed
TO see the phoongyee walking softly
down the passage. He had used the
board as lever to force out two of
the bars In the door and had managed
TO squeeze himself through the aper-
ture
The sentry, Buddhist. was embar-
raised. To lay violent hands upon the
holy convict was out of the question:;
to allow him to escape would bring
punishment upon himself. AS the pas
sage doors were locked and the priest
safe for the present. the sentry ven
tured to demonstrate with his charge
on the improperly of his behavior.
The tramp of the relief guard was
heard outside. The sentry knelt and
implored the priest to return to his cell.
The door opened upon the tableau-a
uniformed sentry in an attitude Of sup
plication before convict.
The Punjabese who formed the re-
lief guard. not being Buddhists, had no
respect for phoongyees. The convict
priest was promptly bundled into a
new cell.-BOston Herald.

BERRY, THE HANGMAN.
How He Got His erewsome Office and
Why He Resianed Il.

Rerry. the famous English hangman.
had an extraordinary career He work
ed as carpenter. engineer and printer
before Joining the police force. He
knew his predecessors. Marwood and
Calcroft. and secured the post of hang
man ont of 1.l00 applicants. 1t is said
that Berry was chosen as hangman by
the sheriffs Of London through an an
swer he gave TO question about hang
ing man he knew 10 be innocent.
would you hang that gentleman over
there?' he was asked. After looking
at the councillor. venerable, gray
bearded figure. Berry is alleged to
have replied: II would hang the lot OF
you. The crime would not be mine.
but the laws"
And yet Berry finally gave up his
Office as hangnian because the eXecu-
ton by him of two innocent persons
got on his nerves.
The first case was that of farm lad.
aged about eighteen. accused of shoot
ing a policeman. The boy protested
bis innocence to Berry up TO the last
moment. but was duly executed. Some
time after this Berry hanged the Meth
erby hall murderers. one of whom just
before he died told Berry that it was
he who bad shot the policeman for
which crime the boy had been exc
cuted.
The second case was that of Mary
Lef11ey of Lincolnshire who was ac-
cused Of poisoning her husband with
arsenic. She. too. protested her limo
cence, but was hanged. Some years
later farmer dying of cancer con
fessed the crime. He said he had had
a quarrel with John Lefiiey. and when
both John and Mary were out he had
entered their cottage and put arsenic
in a milk pudding which had been pre-
pared for John Lellley's dinner.
1t was on account of these two grave
miscarriages Of justice that Berry ul-
timately turned evangelist. He was
persuaded to go to a mission meeting
at Bradford and there announced his
conversion.-London Tit-Bits.

AFRAID OF THE DENTIST7
Here Are Some Hints That May Help
You Through Your Ordeal.

made a study Of efficiency in all dircc.
| lions claims tO have made some dis
coveries that ought to be helpful to
all. Here are some of his suggestions.
Your siege In the dentist chair will be
greatly heightened il you will remember
few things:
| Keep the throat moist by gargling
! from time to time as you sit in the
chair with water mixed with some an
tiScptic preparation of an ordinary
character such rs every dentist has at
hand.
1t is not a bad idea before you go to
dentist to take a bit of chewing gum
in the mouth to promote II free flow
of saliva. II the gum has a flavor.
that will he helpful and will check the
tendency to dryness of the throat and
the tickling sensation that follows.
Carry large handkerchief with per
fume or cologne on it. which you can
hold in your hand and inhale the
cologne whenever you have mo
ment's rest You will find it very re-
freshing. While the dentist is at work
the handkerchief will give your fin
gers something to clasp. This may
help to divert your attention from the
work on your teeth.
Relieve the strain upon your throat
at every opportunity while the dentist
is changing his instruments by lifting
your head from the chair-for even Il
single moment-and taking deep
breath. Shut your eyes and think of
some problem. some particular friend
or of some one in whom you are deep
ly interested. This will divert your
thought from the dentists work.
Remember that most of the pain we
fear we can escape. In these days
dentistry is less painful than ever be-
fore. 1t will probably never be entire
ly painless. yet much Of the work OF
the dentist is now done without in
flicting pain. though. of course. 1t is
always unpleasant to have any one
opera ting with steel instruments In
your mouth.
II a painful moment comes while
you are sitting IN the chair you can re-
lieve 1t instantly by taking a long
breath. Try it and see. - Leslie's
