Cooked Under Water.

An Englishman made a wager that be could cook a plum pudding ten feet beneath the surface of the Thames and won the bet by placing the pudding In a tin case and putting the whole In a sack of lime. Tbe neat of the lime, slaking when It came In contact with the water, was’ sufficient to cook the pudding In two hours. Until 1G27 the Chinese wore their hair long and colled on the top of tbs head, where it was fastened with an ornamental pin. The Mantchopj edict making the pigtail a sign of loyalty changed' this style. , e * mmmmmmm+mmmimmmmmmmmmmmmmrnmmm There are no big words in the sermon on the mount
