“Janies,” said the English gold manu
facturer. "we are bout of Bibles. Go
downtown and buy .six dozen.”
James in due course returned with
the Bibles in a handcart. They were
taken from him by three men. their
covers wore torn off, and the pages
were trimmed with sharp knives down
to a certain small size. Then those
little reduced papers were sewed to
gether into a multitude of small books.
The small books were distributed
among the hnnds, and in them the
firm’s output of gold leaf was packed—
between every two Biblical leaves a
leaf of gold.
"It seems irreverent, not to say sacri
legious, I know,” said tlie head of tin*
firm, “but we balways do so. We have
done so for generations. Gold leaf is
balways put on the market in little
books made of Bibles.
“Why? I’ll tell you why. Gold leaf
must he packed between printed in
stead of plain pages, for the reason that
it would slip out of plain pages, which
are too smooth for it, whereas the in
dentations made by the types on the
printed pages are just sufficient to bold
the leaf in place firmly. That’s why
printed pages are used.
“We choose among all printed pages ;
Bible ones, for the reason that the
Bible is the best printed book a-going.
The type is more evenly srt, and the
printing is finer than in any other
work, and we need the best typesetting
and printing in our business, you kno \ I
for any roughness or unevenness is apt
to tear the gold leaf.
“That’s why all English gold leaf is
packed in Bibles. It’s a necessary
thing to do, but all the same I’ve of
ten wondered that the churches ’ave
never gotten after us gold leaf manu
facturers for our hirreverence.”—Lon
don Chronicle.

Tliut Are Hevenled
Touc-Ii of the Blind.
The handshake of some people makes
you think of accident and sudden
death. Contrast this ill boding hand
with the quick, skillful, quiet hand of
a nurse whom I remember with af
fection because she took the best care ^environment
of my teacher. I have clasped the !
hands of some rich people that spin
not and toil not and yet are not beau
tiful. Beneath their soft, smooth
roundness what a chaos of undevelop
ed character!
All this is my private science of
palmistry, and when I tell your for
tune It is by no mysterious Intuition
or gypsy witchcraft, but by natural,
explicable recognition of the embossed
character in your hand. Not only is
the hand as easy to recognize as the
face, but it reveals its secrets more
openly and unconsciously. People con
trol their countenances, but the hand
Is under no such restraint. It relaxes
and becomes listless when the spirit
is low and dejected, the muscles tight
en when the mind is excited or the
heart glad, and permanent qualities
stand written on it all the time.
As there are many beauties of the
Whitechapel road, down through Shore
ditch and Bethnal Green, linnet singing
is the pastime of thousands and the
business of scores of men who will bet
themselves to a standstill over the
sweet voiced rivalries of two wee
brown birds caged on the wall of some
public house whose reputation makes
respectability timorous of intrusion.
The hard faced “east ender,” whose
chief joy is a bloody "limited round
go” in the prize ring of a resort in
Whitechapel, may be seen next night
in the back room of another “pub,” sit
ting in breathless silence and behind
locked doors, with a hundred of his
kind, while ids linnet sings a match
for “pleasant song” and a stake of 10
shillings a side.
When the referee says “Now!” the
watch is started, but this does not
mean that the birds are yet engaged
in any rivalry. They sit on their little
perches in silence, and tho crowd sits
in silence watching them. Presently
one of the rivals pipes up his opening
lay. This is called the “lead off.” The
first note of a song is called the “chuc
kle.” Perhaps the bird which makes
the “lead off” may stop with this
“chuckle” and not linish his song. The
stimulus is enough to start the other
bird, however, and he in turn makes
his “chuckle" and then without a
break performs the whole of his reper
toire of ten “pleasant songs.”
The sulky bird is frenzied at this su
periority and to make up for lost time
sings as if Its heart would break. Both
scorers are busy now “chalking the
scores” as fast as their pencils can fly.
To the untrained ear the torrent of pip
ing notes is hopelessly intermingled,
and even when one bird is singing
alone it is Impossible to tell where one
song ends and another begins.
This sweet piping absorbs the atten
tion of the audience, while just beyond
the closed door a horde of bloated men
and slatternly women are drinking
themselves more sodden, with blas
phemous and vulgar merriment.
The birds are all of purity and senti
ment and sweetness that can be found
in this east end “pub,” and they sing
as gladly as if green fields were their
Outing.

the funniest stories on record, and
you are just in time.” ’

Proprietary Right.
Little Edith had spent an afternoon
busily searching with nimble fingers
through the soft fur of her pet kitten,
says Lippincott’s Magazine. When she
was through she came to report to her
mother.
“Oh, mamma,” she cried, “I found a
little ilea on kitty, and I caught It!”
“What did you do with It?” asked her
mother.
"Why, l put it back on kitty again,
of course. It was her Ilea.”
The Governor’ll Wife,
“Two men in Buffalo.” says a state
official, “recently had a heated argu
ment over the question whether the
wife of a governor of a state had an
official title. One man contended that
she should be addressed as ‘Mrs. Gov
ernor So-and-so,’ while the other stout
ly insisted that she was simply ‘Mrs.
Blank, wife of Governor Blank.’ Final
ly they agreed to submit the question
to the first man they should meet. He
proved to be an Irishman. The case
was put before him, and he was asked
for a decision.
“ ‘Nayther of yez is right,’ said the
Irishman after a moment’s reflection.
‘The wife of a governor is a govern
ess.’ ’’—Collier’s Weekly.
Deaf as an Adder.
The expression “deaf as an adder” is
from the Psalms of David, where it
appears in the following form: “Their
poison is like the poison of serpents.
They are like the deaf adder that stop-
peth her ear, which will not harken to
the voice of charmers, charming ever
so wisely.’” East Indian travelers tell
us that there is a widely prevailing su
perstition in the east to the effect that
both the viper and the asp stop their
ears when the charmer is uttering his
Incantations or playing his music by
turning *me ear to tbe ground and
twisting tbe point of the tall into the
other.

Bad Teeth and Caneer.
Walter Whitehead, the well known
English surgeon, believes it possible
that cancer may be due to bad teeth.
Addressing the students of the Vic
toria Dental hospital, he said that to
drain, trap and ventilate a house for
a man with bad teeth was waste of
money, for he polluted the purest air
as he breathed it and contaminated tho
most wholesome food as he ate it.
