Novel Method Adopted in New Brens- wick, New Jersey, to Assist the Church, The Pitman Methodist Episcopal church of New Brunswick, N. J., does not depend for an income upon what is put into its collection plates, re- ports the New York Journal. It has up-to-date methods of raising money. At the last church meeting the wom- en of the congregation announced that the leading members must all | either sing a song, tell a funny story or do some sort of an entertaining “turn.” Those who failed were to be fined such sums as the woman’s vig- ilance committee should decide upon. Henry Arbogast, because his name begins with the first letter of the al- phabet, was called upon to start. He blushed and started singing “Annie Rooney,” the only song he knew. They fined him $5 on general principles. William Clark recited “Curfew Shall for being guilty of conduct calculated to create a breach of the peace, Some of the men provided substitutes and escaped punishment. Five of the congregation were so un- accustomed to public speaking that when they were called -upon they could only sit as if glued to their overcome with bashfulness that he couldn’t put his hand in his pocket to get the money to pay his fine, and an usher had to fish it out. The church netted $100 from the en- tertainment, and it will hold another of the same kind next time it needs money. NOT PIETY, BUT PORK. Dinners, Not Doubts, Are What Most Men Are Wrestling With, Say These Women, The following bit of non-conformist: humor is taken from “The Farring-, dons,” an English romance. The, speakers are Mrs. Bateson and Mrs. Hankey, worthy wives, but not al- together above feeling a certain pleas- ure in showing up the ways of hus- bands. “They've no sense; men haven’t,” said Mrs. Hankey; “that’s what’s the mat- ter with them.” “You never spoke a truer word, Mrs. Hankey,” replied Mrs. Bateson. “The very best of them don’t properly know the difference between their souls and their stomachs, and they fancy they are a-wrestling with their doubts when really it is their dinners that are a- wrestling with them. “Now, take Bateson himself,” con- tinued Mrs. Bateson. “A kinder hus- band or better Methodist never drew breath; yet, so sure as he touches a bit of pork, he begins to worry himself about the doctrine of election till there's no living with him. And then he’ll sit in the front parlor and en- gage in prayer for hours ata time till I says to him: “‘Bateson,’ said I, ‘I’d be ashamed to go troubling the Lord with a prayer, when a pinch o’ carbonate o’ soda would set things straight again.’ ” RAILWAYS OF CHINA. They Are Tew in Number and Those Are Mostly Controlled by Foreigners, China has few railways, the policy of foreign exclusion so long in vogue having prevented their construction, says the New York Sun. Most of the lines in existence are in the region which is now the scene of military operations and of the depredations of the Boxers. A railway 80 miles long, belonging to an English company, ex- tends from the port of Tientsin north to Peking. At Fengtal, five miles south of Peking on this line, begins the Belgian “Lu-Han” railway, which extends southwest 78 miles to Paot- ingfu, where the Boxers have been particularly active. Both the English and the Belgian lines have been large- ly destroyed by the rioters. From ‘Tientsin a railway extends 287 miles eastward to Chenchou, and there are branches aggregating 50 miles. Alto- gether the English system has 407 miles and the Belgian 88. It is the former that is to be ultimately con- nected with Moukden, in the Russian sphere, where it will connect with the Siberian railway. About 60 miles of the American Hankan-Peking line has been graded, but work is now stopped. Breach’ of Papal Etiquette. A story from Rome says that some ladies made their appearance at a papal reception, to the grave dis- pleasure of the pope, jn ballroom dress. A well known cardinal was in- structed to apprise these offenders of their breach of etiquette. The car- dinal thus fulfilled his somewhat deli- cate mission: “The pope,” he said, “is old-fashioned, and does nét like decollete dresses; but I am quite ac- customed to them, for I ‘have been so much among savages when a mission- ary that I do not mind them.” Pigeon Pie for Satlors, An old tar on a sailing vessel says that sailors on shipsin the regular lane between Europe and New York are al- ways sure of pigeon pie the day after the carrier pigeon service leaves this port. He added that pigeons flying at sea soon get tired and settle on the first craft that comes their way. The impression is gaining that pigeons are not so useful for long ocean flights as has been believed. Irrigation tn the Sahara, A fine example of man’s triumphs over adverse natural conditions is to be seen in the Sahara. That region has long been identified with utter sterility and barrenness. Yet through the simple expedient of irrigation by artesian wells, more than 12,000,000 acres of it have already been made | abundantly fertile, « - Not Ring Fo-night,” and had to pay $1 | seats and blush.

Eve: if it did no more than to compel it: devotees to spend a certain portio of their time in the open air. much} would be achieved; but the opportu-| nity thus afforded of filling the lungs with fresh air, and thus oxygenating the blood, is in a large number of cases, rendered valueless by the per- nicious habit of bending forward over the handle bars. But this is not the only evil. Itis safe to say that not one bicycle rider in six has the saddle properly adjusted to physical needs. In the first place, a great many riders | ride with the saddle post too high, yet nothing is more simple than to get the correct height cf the saddle. When seated on the saddle, with one pedal down to its lowest point, the hollow of the foot should rest easily on the pedal—this is absolutely cor- rect. Then again, the saddie ahould be sufficiently forward so as to bring the rider immediately over his work; thus he gets the best effects with the least expenditure of force, and if the saddle is too far back an undue amount of exertion is imposed upon the legs, and it necessitates leaning | forward, cramping the lungs, and consequently accelerating the heart’s action. If these hints are attended to bicevele riding may become what it should bea healthful, invigorating exercise, and a boon to thoes con- demned to sedentary occupations.— Omega Health Magazine.
