meeting was "The Wonderful Cup

numberless little shelves that can
not be filled. The cupboard Is the

The oldest UrlttLs Game.
In one form or another football, the
oldest British game, has existed for
centuries. Some see it in the game
"harpaston." played by the Greeks, the
name of which, they say, by deriva
tlon, suggests that the ball might he
seised and carried into goal. No trace
of the game, as now understood, is
found outside of Britain, but in Eng
land it has flourished for centurles.
Shrove Tuesday, in olden times, was
the great annual football day, when
the fun was fast and furious, shops
and houses being closed for fear of
damage and both sexes and all ages
taking part.
Fitzatephen in his "History of Lon
don, 1175," makes the earliest mention
of the game in England. He tells us
of young men of the city annually go
Ing into the fields after dinner to play
at the well known game of ball on
Shrove Tuesday. Traditions of Chester
and Derby bear this out, where It was
long the custom to do the same, Ches
ter's first ball being the head of a
Dane.-Pearson's Weekly.
What He Wanted to Knew.
It may not be generally known, but
a certain prominent resident belongs
to a family in which he is one of twen
ty-four brothers and sisters, sixteen of
whom are now living. There were two
mothers in the family, the first having
eleven children and the second thir
teen. The man in question belongs to
the second group. One of his sisters
grew to maturity, married, had seven
children and died before he was born.
He was an uncle before birth and a
great-uncle at five years of age. It is
said that when the latter event came
to pass and the youngster was Intprm
ed that he was now really and truly a
great-uncle he who had been an uncle
for live long years cocked his features
into 1u exprnrslon of sadness and re
plied. "That may be all right, but when
am I going to be a grau'pa"-Annu Ar
bor Times.
A Insinuatioen.
It was a warm Sunday morning in
church. Fans were fluttering, hymn
als flopping, handkerchiefs mopping
streaming faces, and the minister
thought his audience a little lax In-at
tention. Finally he led up to a rebuke
for Its lack of consideration for sacred
,:ud important things. Said he:
"P'aople are prone to attend to the
unimportant things of life."
And he gave a few examples to il
lustrate his idea. Presently he made
his pertinent application.
"Now," said he, "you are attentive
to your own comfort this morning, to
the sinful neglect of the holy word.
Take no thought for the heat," he
said dramatically. "for you may be
dead tomorrow."-Detroit Free Press.
Inuencee of Chess.
If a Scottish scientist is to be be
lieved, the people of those countries
in which chess is most frequently
played are Invariably more civilized
than those who inhabit countries in
which little attention is paid to this
great game.
The best chess players in the world,
he points out, were to be found in
Spain during the period of its splendor
and in Italy during the renaissance,
whereas today there are few persons
in those countries who, care for the
game.

Many fish can produce musical
sounds. The red gurnard has earned
the name of sencock from the crowing
noise which it makes, while another
species is called the piper. Others, not
ably two species of ophidiunim, have
sound producing apparatus, consisting
of small movable hones, which can be
made to produce a sharp rattle. The
curious "drumming" made by the Med

horse every other day for six years
over the same road and then had him
go crazy and try to kill himself and
me because a leaf luttered down in
front of him. I have known scores of
horses, apparently trustworthy, appar

She killed two of the children. If any
one can tell me of one good reason
why man should trust a horse. I should

The Vale of Stantes.
From the medical standpoint singing
is a moat important exercise both by
virtue of its influence on the emotions,
on the respiratory movements and on
the development of the lungs. Nothing
better shows the beneflcal effect of
singiging in developing the chest and
warding off the lung diseases than the
great pulmonary development and free
dom from pulmonary disease ameag
professional singers. Their general
health, moreover, is exceptionally pd,
and thbl Is probably in a large meas
ure attributable to the mere exerclse
of the calling. It is especallay useul
in defective chest development and in
chronic heart disease. Provided the
patient can sing with comfort there is
no condition in which singing is con
tralndicated unless it be a tendency to
tuberculosis or aneurismal hemoptysis.
It Is scarcely necessary to say that the
singer should be so clad as to allow
aheolute freedom of the chest move
ments, there should be no constriction
of the neck or waist, the collar should
be low and ample and the stays, if
worn, ample and loose.

A German lady in a town in Ventura
county had a daughter who was her
mother's pride. The mamma bears
somewhat of a reputation as a Mrs.
Malaprop and is also a prosperous mer
chant. On one occasion the daughter,
who assists her mother in the store,
was by dint of hard work among rela
tives and friends chosen as queen of a
street carnival to be held in the town.
Maternal pride ran riot in the elder
woman's btwoat. To a friend she burst
forth in this ecstatic strain:
"Oh, mein Mollie! She vas so peau
tiful as neifer vas! Dere van no gerrel
so peautiful as mein Mollie! Und she

Probably the oddest and most pre

More than two centuries before our
Saxon forefathers penetrated the des
ert of the southwest the Spanish pi
oneers, wandering through those lone
ly wilds, found a rock so noble and so
remarkable, even in a country of won
derful stone monuments, that they,
called it "El Morro" (The Castle).
Wishing to leave some record for fu
ture generations, they traced with the
points of their swords their names up
on its rough surface. Those names
are there, with dates of their inscrip
tion-in nearly every instance the early
part of the seventeenth century.

The interior bark of trees was for
merly used to write upon, and its Latin
name (llber, a harks seems to inti
mate that its use was as ancient as
the art of writing itself. In one re
spect the bark was superior to the
leaf. It could be rolled into a volume,
while the leaf would crack if subjected
to such a process.

FOOD AND THE SEXES.

Thaa the Freale.
According to a writer in the Lancet,
the male human needs more food than
the female not only on account of his
larger stature, but also because he is
the more katabulle of the two. The
man tends to expend energy and the
woman to store it up in the form of
.at- he hkn.ns thl fatute, ml.t mrnal
difference shews Itself in the very
blood. The man has a larger percent
age of chromocytes than the woman,
showing that he needs a proportionate
ly larger quantity of oxygen in order
to maintain his more active combus
tion, a fact which one may assoolate
with his comparative freedom from
chlorosls. Moreover, weightfor weght.
his pulmonary capacity is greater than
that of the woman, whose smaller re
spiratory need Is further shown by the
facility with which she can without
discomfort diminish her breathing
power by means of the corset.
"rThe great contrast between the
metabolic activity of the two .
continues the writer, "was torcb
brought home to me by a military dis
play given by a troop of dusky -ma*
sons, with whom were also a few male
warriors. The women. in spite of their
daily exertions, were all rounded and
plump, some very much so. no single
muscle showing through the skin. and
it was notleed that their movements,
though full of grace, lacked energy
and 'go.' The men, on the other hand,
were spare, their muscles standing out
plainly under the shiny skin, and they,
In further contrast with the women,
displayed a truly amasing agility,
bounding about and whirling round in
a most astounding fasbln. The wom
en, in short, were essentially anabollU.
and the men were katabollc. I may
here draw attention to the fact that
men are apt to be larger meet eaters
than women. Just as they are, possibly
la cesequence of this very fact, more
prone to drink alcohol and to smoke
tobacco"
SLEEPING HEROES.

Is there any race that has not its
sleeping hero? A correspondent re
cently pointed out that the time for the
fulfillment of the prophecy that the
tenth of Krishna will restore to India
her Independence is near at hand, and
every nation has some such savior to
whom the people look. West country
rustics still believe that Arthur did not
die, but sleeps in Avalon, and that in
the hour of Britain's need be will
awake, deliver the land and restore
the golden age. In Germany it is a
popular belief that Charles V will
some day wake from hbls enchanted
sleep to reign over Germany, Spal,
Portugal, Denmark, Belgium and Hol
land. Thousands of French peasants
hold that Napoleon is only sleeping
and that at some future time be will
reappear and rule. And Mr. Newbolt
has enshrined the Devon legend that
Drake is only listening for the drum.
The Irish peasantry steadfastly re
fuse to believe that Mr. Parnell Is
really dead. They assert that his death
was a ruse, that he was an interested
spectator of his own funeral and that
when the time comes he will emerge
from retirement to give Ireland her in
dependence. Every true Moslem be
lieves that when antichrist appears
Mohammed Mohadl will awake and
conquer him. A Moorish legend deo
lares that Bobadil el Chico sleeps
spellbound near the Alhambra and
that one day he will awake to re-es.
