Another Glass.
The seventeenth century puritan
1 preachers talked for two hours or more
not "by tb" clock," but by the hour
glat-'s A t least one of tliem turned
the glass to humorous account. He
found himself no further than the mid
i (lie of the sermon when the sands had
I run out. "Drunkenness" was his sub
! ject, and, reversing the horologe, "Let's
j have another glass," said he. Sir
Roger L'Estfange tells of a parish
clerk who sat patiently until the
preacher was three-quarters through
his second glass and tin? majority "112
his hearers had quietly left the church.
Rising at a convenient pause, he ask
ed the minister to close the church
door when he had done, "and push the
key under it. as he and the few that
remained were about to retire."
Holme and Philadelphia.
The gridiron pattern upon which
Philadelphia was laid out was the
work of Thomas Ilolme, the surveyor
general of Pennsylvania. The design,
however, was Penn's own. Little
seems to be popularly known of Thom
as Holme, although some of his de
scendants still live in the city and bear
his name, but it is said that all of his
vast trac; of land and his city lots
j have long . ince passed out of the pos
session of his family.
A Remarkable Hat.
A woman wants a divorce because
her husband has purchased her only
hat in twenty-live years.
It would be interesting to know if
there is enough of the hat left to get
on straight.—Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Social Duty.
The idea of social duty dominates
our time. We are impregnated with
it. It is the most urgent aspiration of
the modern conscience and in the
| midst of our controversies defies ail
our ironies.—Georges Touchard in La
Nonvelle Revue, Paris.
