E., A, Barker, Irish’ Church Bells, It was about the time of St. Pat- rick, In the fifth century, that bells began to be adopted in the Christian church, though their use in other di- rections was long anterior to Chris- tianity, as Mr. Layard records having found some in the palace of Nimroud. The first Christian bells, like Patrick’s, weighed only a few ounces and from that day gradually increased till the grgatest weight was reached at Mos- cow with 198 tons of beautifully .en- riched work, a strange contrast to the humble “Clog-an-eadhachta Patraic,” or “bell of Patrick’s well,” sometimes referred to as the bell of Armagh, with its diminutive dimensions of six inches high by five inches broad, four inches deep, made of thin sheets of hammer- ed iron, bent into a four sided form, fastened with rivets and brazed or bronzed. This bell is at once the most authentic and the oldest Irish relic of Christian metal work that has de- scended to us, writes W. J. Fennell in the Belfast Gazette, and is mentioned in the “Annals” under the date of 552. The Puffed Out Chest. “The puffed out chest is a delusion which has succumbed to sclentific knowledge of the human body,” said a drill officer. “It came into existence purely for show reasons or from false analogy. It was seen that men deep in the chest were strong men, and the old drill sergeants probably Imagined that by making men- throw out thelr chests they would make them strong, as well as make them look strong, which Is a complete mistake. Instead of strengthening a man, pufing his chest tends to weaken him, as it throws a strain upon the heart. We now tell men to be sure and not puff out their chests. If you puff out your chest and do dumbbell exercise you are to hold the breath. That strains the heart. Any exercise that prevents breathing freely Is bad. Knotted mus- cles are also wrong. You see a man with immense chest muscles and per- haps you think he is really an ideally trained man, but such muscles simply bind the chest and tie the heart down.” —Reader Magazine, A Catch Question. Of Bishop Short, who held the see of St. Asaph, many curious stories are told. Occasionally he put questions to candidates for ordination that appar- netly had no connection with the dis- charge of their parochial duties. They tested probably their wit or tact, two necessary qualifications to public men, but nothing more. One such question proposed by the bishop was the fol- lowing: “Which has the greatest num- ber of legs, a cat or no cat?”’ As might be expected, this created a titter, but the bishop would not take a laugh as the answer, and consequently he repeated the question and desired some otte to solve the problem. Atlast one of the candidates, smiling, said, “I should think, my lord, a cat.” “No,” retorted the bishop; “there you are wrong, for a cat has four legs, and no cat has five.”—London Telegraph. Saving Time. Father (to his son, early in the morn- ing)—What is the meaning of this? dorfer Blatter. Torture. A shrewd old doctor once said: “If I wanted to torture an enemy, I would tell him he had an incurable disease. His life would be miserable, and he would be almost certain to die before his time.” Missed Vocation, Client—Didn’t you make a mistake in gning into law instead of the army?’ Lawyer—Why? Client—By the way you charge there would be little left of the enemy.—London Tit-Bits.
