A recent report fr., in a British coneul in one of the Central tnericatie* States gives the following as the origin of the flatus rub- ber as applied to ca ittehoae. An English artist discovered in 770 that the new gum was admirably ada ted fur rubbing out pencil marks. He rote n paper on the subject and inform d his ' contemporaries that a cubic inob of this stabstanee, costing only 3 ehillings, wou d last for years. It was used for no nth r purpese in England than effacing lead encil narks for about half a century afte this lieoovery, hence the name "rubber.' Afte the introduc- lion of the raw rnati rial and the scientific., description of the lant by Frenchmen, it was first ma,mlfacttured into waterproof clothing in France toward the end of the eighteenth centary. . • Changed His Style. A story is told of a minister who for a month or two after his appointment to a country parisb, need to treat his hearers to sermons of a very flowery deecription. Finding, however, that continual preaching of tin) kind is fruitful of little benefit, he changed his style to something lest; catching but more praeti ' 1, and also, with the view of adding weigh to hie exhortations, in- augurated the "schedule system" of mak- ing collections. On one oceaeion a young lady collector ea led on an erstwhile benevo- lent old spinster belonging to the congrega- tion, and began the attack with the insinu- ating schedule; bat lib sooner was her mis- sion comprehended than the eountensinee of the spinster hardened . "N&, na 1" she exclaimed. " Wha vvud gie a ha'penny. to yen man?

The Lahore (India) Tribune quotes a Chinarnan's explanation of the use of rats for food purposes as fonews " What a carrot is to a herse's cat a rat is to the human hair. Neither fact can las explained, but every horseman knows that a regimen of carrots will make hie stud smooth and lustrous as velvet, and the Chinese, especi- ally the women, know that rats used as food stop the falling out of hairi and make the locks soft, silky and beautifel.

There is for example, a certain army wom-an in Washington, who gave a tea, recently. Early in the afternoon a woman who didn't know her so very well came in to see her on some little matter, some church society af- fair, I believe, or something of the kind. Tbe hostees explained that she was giving a tea that afternoon, and that if ab - had only known her visitor better, she would have liked so much to send her a card. But I'd like you to come ever so numb," she said, "even if I heven't sent you a card. Can't you ?" and here she took in the visitor's thilet, a toilet, by the way, in which the visitor habitually pays calls. "Can't you just go home and change your dress and then come back?
