A MiUxlusler curate walking '.un;,' a ptreet n tac dinner hour, passed m lot of brirkhiyers smoking their pipes, and he heard one of t lie men f-uy: 'I'd like to be a parson, and have now! to do but walk along in a black cont and carry a walkim; stick in my hand, and gel a lot id brass." There was an approving laugh all around, whereupon the curate turned quietly around, and the following conversation ensued: "So you would like to be a parson? How much do you get a week?" "Twenty-seven shillings." 'Well, I am no" a rich man, bul I will nive you twenty-seven shillings if you will come with me for a week and sec what my work is." The. bricklayer did not like the pro posal, but his mates told him it was a fair offer, and he was bound to accept it. So he reuetantly followed the parson down an -.illey. 'Where are you going?" lie, asked. "To see a sick parishioner," was the reply. "What is the nutter with hint?" 'Small-pox." At this the man drew back. His wife aud bairns had never had the small-pox, and he was afraid of tak ing it to them. "My wiie and hairs had never had the small pox, " said the ( urate. The man hesitated. but yon promised to accompany me wherever I went," argued the cur ate. 'And where are you going next?" asked the bricklayer. "To see a poor family huddled in one room, with the father dead of the scarlet fever in it, and themselves sick with il; and, after that, to see another parishioner 11 with typhus. And to morrow there will be a longer round." Thereupon (ho bricklayer begged to be let oil'. Twcnly-soven shillings would be poor pay for that kind of work, and he promised he would nev er speak against the parsons again. Litchfield Church. Scientific. How did we come to possess our present form of dress? This is one of the many questions answered by a re viewer in the Nature, who had under his notice the catalogue of the Gener al Pitt Ki vers unlhrooologiban collec tion lately published. Clothing at first was almost entirely ornamental. The exceptions were such articles as belts from which instruments of va rious kinds could be suspended so us to be redy for use while i lie hands were lelt free. A savage does not en joy the luxury of a pocket. Even at the present day a Japanese has to sling his tobacco pipe and pouch from his belt, and the only pockets he has are in his sleeves. The simple tinc ture was the germ, so to speak of the clothing we wear. After some time a bunch of pandauni slips were added in front, and this Avas gradually ex tended until it made a complete fringe around the body. When (lie arts be came so far advanced that man could make paper cloth or some woven ma terial these hitter were substituted for the primitive fringe, and the kilt was thus developed. As man advanc ed there were inconveniences attend ing t he use of t he kilt, which were abated by fastening thai garment at ouj point bel ween I he legs, and the human mind was then fairly set upon tiie path lo arrive at the attainment of a pair of trousere. When the back and shoulders needed promotion the savage u.-eil the skin of. animal, and it is from this sort of covering for I he upper part of the body that we have derived our coals, vests. shirK etc. Bul loo ancient cloak form is oren yet retained, not only by such, people as Zulu chiefs, but in all lobes of cere mony by dignatarios of court and col lege ofthe most highly civilized na tions on the face of the earth. The elaborate and varied head coverings of the present day all sprang from a very simple original tribe. In gazing upon Ihe forbidden gar den that crowns some lofty hill inac cessible in ns we may forget, the fruits and llowers that are lyintr in profusion a I our feet unlasted nnd unappreciated. Some persons are papable of making grcüt sacrifices, but few are capable of concealing how much Ihe effort has cost them; and it is this concealment that constitute their value.
