The Bradford Herald in an article telling of a "graft" overlooked by the constables in McKean county, says: The law provides that any owner of land who is convicted of allowing Cana dian thistles to grow on his premises shall pay a fine of sls to the treasury ot the school district where such land is looated. It further provides that it is the duty of the constable or supervisor to notify all persons to remove Cana dian thistles and if the owner fails to do so within five days from the notice the constable shall cut them down and charge the owner of the land $2.50 per day. There is not a township in the connty were these thistles do not grow in abundance and a number of them may be found growing in the city. A con stable could make good money cutting them down as it would only take a con stable a few minutes to do the job and the law knows no part of a day and pays a full day's wages for any part of a day's service.

In 1538, when Henry VIII. rooted np Thomas a Becket's grave and erased his name from the scroll of saints, he also ordered that all pictures, stained glass windows and frescoes hearing up on the life of this saint should be de stroyed. In some churches where St. Thomas was held In special honor the law was evaded by superimposing an other picture over the forbidden one. On the north wall of the church at South Newlngton, near Banbury, Eng land, there Is a crudely executed fresco of Christ's triumphal entry into Jerusa lem. From the effects of age and damp this fresco is gradually disappearing, and now through the colossal donkey on which our Lord is represented riding can be seen the figure of the murdered archbishop prone 011 the chancel steps. Gradually, possibly, the whole under lying fresco of the murder of St. Thom as at Canterbury will come into view, and it is evidently of far higher artistic merit than the hastily executed cover ing one. Not of Oar Killing. When Senator Galllnger was practic ing medicine in his New Hampshire home, he had a coachman who was a "character" worthy of the attention of any writer of fiction. On one occa sion Dr. Galllnger was called profes sionally at a house next to a residence on which was displayed black crape as a sign of death. A passerby, noticing the crape and not knowing who had died there, supposed Dr. Galllnger was in the house and that his coachman could give the desired Information. The coachman seemed to take the inquiry as a personal affront and bristled up in martial style. "I don't know,"he retorted prompt ly. "It's not of our killln'—lt's not of our killln'." Then he pulled his horse up so as to avoid any further suspicion that he was waiting for the doctor to come out of the house with the badge of mourn ing.—Washington Star. Trollope Dl>K«recd. Although Anthony Trollope never smoked, he liked being with those who did. It soothed his nerves, he said, and sent him to sleep. On one occasion, when he had Just returned to London from South Africa, he was talking at the Cosmopolitan club to Lord Carna von. Lord Derby, Froude, the historian. Lord Wolseley and one or two others equally famous on the future of that country. In the midst of the discussion Trollope fell asleep, and after a quar ter of an hour's doze he awoke, shaking himself together like the faithful, growling Newfoundland dog he so much resembled. Dissentient even In his unconsciousness, he spluttered forth: "I utterly disagree with every one of you. What is it you said ?" Rain and Plant*. Many persons must have noticed that the most diligent sprinkling of lawns and flower beds foils to impart to the grass and plants n vital stimulus equal to that which conies from a good show er of rain. A correspondent reminds us of the reason for the difference. It is because rain, falling from a great height through the air, brings with it a considerable quantity of carbonic acid, of nitrogenous particles and of other elements nutritious to plants which it has washed out of the atmos phere. So a sprinkler used from the top of a tall building might be slightly more effective than when employed at the surface of the ground. HUM- She Knew. Apropos of the servant maid difficul ty I heard a good story the other day. The wife of a very well known Irish official was In want of an under nurse, and among those who applied for the position was a good natured looking girl of about seventeen. "You tell me," ■aid the official's wife, "that you are very fond of children. That Is all very well In its way, but do you under stand anything about the duties of a nursery? Have you any experience of children?" "Yls, mum," was the reply. "Sure I used to be a child wanst me eilf."—London Tatler. "Where the Typewriter Blundered.

LLOYD'S j Wetplmr at m Wedding. 1 A Chinese marriage is all ceremony— BO talk, no levity and much crying. The solemnity of a funeral prevails. | After the exchange of presents the bride is dressed with much care la a red gown, brocade or silk, if she can get It; her eyelashes are painted a deep black, and she wears a heavy red veil attached to a scarlet headdress, from which Imitation pearls are pendent over the forehead. A feast is spread upon a table, to which the blushing bride is led by five of her best female friends. They are seated at the table, but no one eats. The utmost silence prevails, when, finally, the mother leads off in a cry, the maids follow and the bride echoes In the chorus. Then all the bridesmaids leave the table and the disconsolate mother takes a seat beside the chair of state where the bride sits. The bridegroom now enters, With four of his best men. The men pick up the throne on which the bride sits, and, preceded by the bridegroom, form In procession and walk around the room or into an adjoining parlor, signifying that he is carrying her away to his own home. The guests then throw rice at the happy couple, a cus tom we have borrowed from the heathen. Profennlonnl Pride. Newspaper men, from great editors down to rural correspondents, are proud of their profession, although not all sit as secure as John Black, for many years the chief of the London Chronicle. Black supported the Melbourne ad ministration In his paper, yet he never asked a favor of any of the ministers. On one occasion Lord Melbourne said to him: "You are the only man In England who forgets that I am prime minister." "How so, my lord?" Inquired Black, supposing that he had been Inadver tently disrespectful. "Because," replied Melbourne, "you are the only man I know who never asks a favor of me." "I have no favor to ask," said Black quietly. "I have no favor to ask any one In the world! You are prime min ister of England, but I am editor of the Morning Chronicle, and I would not change places with the proudest man In EnglsJnd— not even, my lord, with you." Every Church.
