One Good Turn Deserves Another

"The late earl of Cork was very
plous person, and extremely solicltous
as to the future salvation Of his fellow
men. One day, finding himself in a
crowded railway carriage, he dellv-
cred homily as earnest as 1t was un-
desired eXhorting everyone immedi-
ately to set about lnsuring his happl-
ness in a future life. Presently one of
the passengers, who had been listening
very attentlvely to all that Cork said,
arrived at his station" says Lord Suf-
field In his memoirs. "When he had
got out on the platform he turned
round and, leaning through the car
rlage door, said:
"Thank you, sir, One good turn
deserves another. You've put me up
wrinkle In your profession; now let
me give you one In return. I'm hat
ter. Put piece Of blottlng paper In
side the lining of your hat, and 1t will
last twice as long. Good-day."

Church Is Home for Cats.

The sacristy In the church of San
Lorenzo In Florence, built by Michael
Angelo in 1923 as mausoleum for
the Medlcl family, adjoins a cloister
that Is almost entirely devoted to cats.
It contains square light arches leap
Ing from column to column, with the
customary campanlle towering far
above 1t Inhabited by pure white
doves. Between the columns of the
cloister is parapet and beyond 1t
n moat four to five feet in depth. And
this moat, backed by all the columns
and the parapet surrounds kind of
island terrace, quite out Of reach of
everybody. That island is the king
dom Of cats, as many as choose to
colonize there and as Is usually the
case with cats, their name Is legion.
They are fed regularly through the
charity of someone who long ago left
n legacy for their maintenance.
