When the Pope Prescribed.

Among the many stories told by Dr. Lapponi, who until his death a couple of weeks ago was chief physician to the Pope, is one of an occasion upop. which Leo 111. turned the tables op him, Lapponi was a strict disciplinarian in medical matters and Deo was a difficult patient He often complained of .the resttaints Lapponi placed on him, and sometimes insisted on having his own way. One day when the Pope was suffering from a very severe cold he insiston holding a prolonged and important reception, despite Lapponi’s protests. When it became plain that the Popejs determination could not be shaken the doctor as a last resort handed him a little box with several tablets in It, imploring him to take one whenever the symptoms of the cold became distressing. The doctor further took up a position in the auaience chamber, half hidden behind a tapestry, where he could watch his patient closely and jump to his support if he should show any signs of collapse. As the audience proceeded the Pope forgot all about the box ot tablets — at least Lapponi failed to see him take any of them. Presently Lapponi thought the Pope was becoming hoarser and he coughed a little as he spoke. The doctor made mind that lie must act. He coughed rather loudly so as to attract the Pope’s attention, and when he caught his eye made a gesture suggestive of taking a tablet from the box and swallowing IL The Pope Instantly turned to one of his secretaries standing *by. “Call the doctor to me,” said he. Lapponi sprang to his side. “Doctor,’’ said the Pope, “I notice you have a very severe cough. I am greatly grieved at it. But I have here some tablets,”—and he produced the box from a fold in hi« robes — “which I am told are splendid for a cold. Let me prescribe one for you. You will do me the pleasure of taking it at once.” What could Lapponi do but take his medicine. The whole gathering, however, understood the situation, and for onces a Papal audience was interrupted by a bust of laughter.—New York Sun.

A Preacher’s Odd Dream.

It was the habit of Rev. James Spurgeon, grandfather of the great preacher of that name, to pray each evening under a certain oak tree in a secluded wood in Honeywood Park. One night he dreamed, the story goes, that Satan appeared and threatened to tear him in pieces if he followed his accustomed route to the tree. There was another path by which ne might go in safety. Rembering ais dream, Spurgeon felt sorely tempter the next night to take the in which Satan was not. But this would be to capitulate. Trembling in every limb he made his way to the path in which the danger lay. He reached his goaJ in safety, and in prayer and song returned thanks for delivery from peril. When his prayer had ended he rose to return. In his path lay a piece of solid gold “as large as a curtain ring.” All inquiry failing to discover the owner he retained it, and when he married had his wife’s wedding ring made from his curious find.— Kansas City Journal.

The Art of Glove Cutting.

The cutters of the great glove houses in Brussels and in r rance earn even higher wages than the cutters of the most fashionable tailors in London and New York. So difficult is this art of cutting gloves that most of the principal cutters are known to the trade by name and by fame, and the peculiar knives which they use in the business are so highly prized that they are handed down irom generation to generation as heirlooms.

In a Mexican Hat Store.

Half a million straw hats is no uncommon sight to be met with at one time in the hat stores of Merlco. The hats are made of a long pampas grass which grows nowhere else in the world. It Is specially cultivated for the hat Industry. So rapidly are the hats made that skilled workmen can turn out ten or a dozen a day, and they are then sent to all parts of the world. They cost about fourpence each to make, and retailed at from 1 shilling sixpence to 4 shillings and are so durable tha + it not infrequently happens that those of an economical turn of mind make a single hat last ten years.

Chesapeake Bay.

Few people fully appreciate the great size of the Chesapeake bay. It is the largest Mentation on the Atlantic coast, and ft has often been called the Mediterranean of America. On its bosom the navies of the world could easily float. It is 200 miles long, and in some places it is forty miles broad. It has an area of over 2.000 square miles, and it shoots off into great rivers with an aggregate length of thousands of miles. Baltlmprs American. - ’ I
