The Ing cinders deluge the eyes and at times make breathing almost imipossi- ble. More than this, he says that un- less one strictly watches himself /ne is in danger of becoming hypnotized. The rhythmically pounding wheels jolt- g over the joints of the rails have a way of insistently commanding : tten- tion that is extremely dangerous.” This. noise, sharp and repeated with dvilish persistence, can hypnotize the unwary, he says. Often he has had to use ev- ery resource of will power which he has in order to ward off the effects of this endless and mind compelling “click, click, click.” He believes that many a tramp who has fallen to his death from the trucks has been first hypnotized in this way. This is per- fectly sound psychology. and the proba- bility of such hypnotism will be in- |, dorsed by any good specialist in this science.—Bohemian Magazine. A Winnipeg Sermon. A story is going the rounds about one of the Winnipeg clergy, which he himself has told with great delight. A farmer and his wife came to Winnipeg on a visit, and on Sunday their host requested the farmer friend to go with him to church. “No,” said he, “I never go to church.” And his wife backed up his assertion. The visitor was finally persuaded to go to a local church and was told the i pastor was also an American. After the service he was introduced to the .| pastor, and the following conversation took place: “Well, doctor,” sald the visitor, “I enjoyed your sermon.” “I am very pleased to hear that,” re- plied the pastor. “You know,” explained the farmer, “I do not go to church very often, but that sermon of yours was the least like a sermon I ever heard.”—Winni- peg Telegram. Modern Witchcraft. Says a correspondent of the London Chronicle: “This writer knows of a west country English farmer, a hard headed business man, who uses the latest machinery on his farm, yet holds the belief in pixies as firmly as any article of his religious creed. Having been visited by a series of minor mis- fortunes, he confided to the writer in the utmost seriousness his fear that he had offended a pixy by inadvertently stepping into a fairy ring and stated that he intended going on the morrow to the white witch at Exeter to get further misfortune averted. And this {level headed business man took a day { from bis farm in the busiest time of the year and journeyed to Exeter and i back—a matter of some sixty miles— ! for this purpose. On his return he was !as one who had cast off & heavy bur- den. But the white witch’s mysteries ’no persuasion could induce him to re- veal.” I A Violin For a Vane. One of the most curious vanes to be !seen on any church in Great Britain |is that at Great Gonerby, a parish ad- 'joluiug Grantham, in Lincolnshire. It is in the form of a fiddle and a bow and is unusually large. Its history is a curious one. Many years ago a peasant resided in Great Goner- by who eked out a modest livelihood lby performing on an old violin, which was almost a part of his life. At last he decided to emigrate and out in the far west prospered and became a rich lman. Oue day he sent to the clergy- ; man at Great Gonerby a sum suffi- iclent to build a church and attached to the gift the curious condition that a metal replica of his old fiddle and bow should be on the summit of the edifice. The gift was accepted, and the vane may still be seen on the church. Club Stories. Two stories are told of the time | when the Athenaeum club, while its clubhouse was undergoing renovation, was hospitably taken in by the Unit- ed Service club. | One was of a distinguished officer i who, after a vain hunt for his um- ibrella, was heard to mutter, “That comes of letting those — bishops into i the club!” The counterblast is to the effect that when an Athenaeum man, while his club was still the guest of the other, asked for the librarian, the answer was, “Please, sir, he is in the dining room carving the roast beef!” Took Him at His Word. Gradgrind (to his employees)—No- body but me is to touch that clock. Nobody is to begin or leave off work except as it indicates the time. Fore- man—Yes, sir. Gradgrind (the next day)—Why, the day is one-fourth gone and nobody’s at work! What does this mean? Foreman (meekly)—You forgot to wind the clock, sir.—London Fun. Cause of His Hilarity. Green—I'd like that fellow Brown better if he didn’t always laugh at his own jokes. White—Brown doesn’t laugh at his own jokes. He laughs at you fellows who are silly enough to listen to them.—Illustrated Bits. Foretelling the Future. Mrs. de Style—So your baby girl is three weeks old. My, how time flies! Mrs. Gunbusta—Yes. Just think in thirty years from now she will be twenty-one years old.—Sphinx, No Vices. Nell—I don’t suppose Mr. Sillicus has any vices? Belle—Vices! Why, he be- ilongs to a glee club, an amateur the- | atrical society and writes poetry.— lmmupuaneoord.
