AN HOUR GLASS IN THE GRAVE.

In Ancient Eagland This Was a Burial Custom.

Hour glasses were placed in coffins in ‘England in ancient times. A writer, in 1817, in the Gentleman’s Magazine, wrote thatin June of that year he stopped, while passing through Clerkenwell churchyard, to see a gravedigger at work. The gravedigger dug deep and laid bare a coftin, the wood of which was rotten and fell to pieces. In clearing away the rotten pieces an hour glass was discovered (placed close to the left side of the skull), which the writer. to the maga- zine purchased. He subsequently, on mentioning itto some of his antiquar- ian friends, was informed that it waa an ancient custom to put an hour glase into the coflin, as an emblem of the sand of life be ng run out. Until late ly, in parts of Sweden, a man’s pipe, tobacco pouch, lights and some money were interred with him; anditis stated that at Reichenbach, in Germany, an umbrella and goloshes are still placed in the wave w.th a corpse.

Missed Her Opportunity.

A young woman in a_ neighboring city, like tens of thousands of Ameri- can girls, spends each year the warm summer months with her family in the country.

On her return last autumn she was describing her summer home to hex pastor, with whom she was a favorite. He had always found her a cheerful, ready helper in church work.

‘We went this year to a little sea- coast village. ‘ihe people imitated us in everything. They took advice as it we were the sons of prophets. They have started a circulating library, and some of them have sabscribed for the magazines.

‘Are they a religious people?”

“No. There are two churches, but few attend the services in them. The poor ministers preach almost to empty benches. ‘The people are not skeptical or vicious; they are just indifferent. “

“And you—? Did you~ influence them in tu.s.” Mary’s face flushed. “I know all

she exclaimed, ‘*but I on my vacation, and Sundays! The church And I am shy religion to

“Yet,” said the minister, gently, “you cuuld set an exampie as easily in

devout Christi an conduct as in new gowns. “Ile that does not confess Me—!”

“I know! And confessing’ Him there would have counted for somuch! If] live until next summer, I will use the

opportunity God has given me.’

FLINTS ARE STILL USED.

Spain and Italy Huy a Good Many of Them. The oldest industry in Britain is still carried on at the village of Brandon, on the borders of Norfolk and Suffolk, and is ina flourishing condition. It isa manufactory of gun and _ tinder-box flints. It appears that there is no reg- ular flint factory, but the work is done in little sheds, often . go back of the townsfolk’s cottages. 4t W ill naturally be asked: Who wants ‘lel: -box flints and gun flints in these days of phos- phorous matches and Martini-Henrys ? The answer to the question is that there isa good trade in tinder-box flints with Spain and Italy, where the tinder box still keeps its ground in rural districts.

Late advices from Toronto state that there is considerable dissension among the employes of the Grand Trunk Railway which may terminate ina strike. The men complain that they are unjustly treated by the foremen and superinten- dents, and that their complaints are net listened to. The most serious point is at i Stratford, where orders were given on Saturday that the 700 employes there should work but 45 hours a week instead of 50 hours as heretofore. If the employes at Toronto and other centres are placed under asimilar regulation some action will probably be taken by the men to have their wrongs redressed. bd

SOME WHO HAVE CHANGED THEIR SEX APPARENTLY

A Disguise Quite Common—Histeric Cases of Mecentric Men and Women, Who Posed Unnaturally; French Girls Went to War to be Near Their Lovers—Strange, But Nevertheless, Quite True,

Among the numerous stratagems in which envious or dissipated person have taken refuge, is the eccentric device of disguising their sex. Itisa matter of well-authenticated history that a good- ly number of men have at v arious times passed as women, while an even greater number of women have ps assed asmen-. These masqueraders have not indulged in their disguise for short periods, but have in the majority ef cases kept the fraud up till de: ath. Among the many instances of trans- mogrification are several which played a conspicuous part in the history of their time. Among those the following are the most noteworthy : On Arpil 14, 1772, there died at Streatham, at the advanced age of 104, a person known as Elizabeth Russell. “This individual had led a somewhat eccentric life. “She” led a roving existence among wandering gypsies, learning much of cabalistic lore. When about fifty she settled at Streatham and pratised the joint callings of needlewoman and fortune teller, in both of which she attained some fame. Among other ac- quaintancesElizabeth was very friendly with Mr. and Mrs, Thrale, at whose house she fre quently encountered Dr. Johnson. When the preparations for tha Fatiaest were being made, it was discovered Elizabeth Russell was a

man.

The Abbe de Choisey was a French priest, famous in his time for his learn- ing. He was born in Paris in 1644. He went on a political mission to the king

of Siam, but was unsuc cessful on his!

errand. The Abbe de Choisey never returned to his native land. For a space of thirty years one of the most alii hostesses in Paris was the Countess des Barres, a lady of fashion, who died in 1724. After her death it was dis- covered that the deceased countess and the Abbe de Choisey were one and the same. By far the most startling case on record of a man disguising b: mself as a woman is undoubtedly that of the Chevalicr d’Eon de Beaumont, w ho was born in 1723. The Chevalier was appointed secretary to the Duke de Nivernois, when the latter came to England on a mission to the court of George IIL, from the French king, Louis XV. He ari ived in 1761, and speedily achieved much popularity at the English court asa man of refined manners anda charming companion. The Chevalier attracted a.good deal of attention, aud was the subject of much gossip. Among other rumors that were get about in regard to him was a sug- iyestion that he was a woman disguised as a man.

The gossip spread, and many bets were made on the subject. In July,

of lieutenant in the Spanish campaign

young woman was engaged to be mar- ried to a young soldier who was killed inthe war. On hearing of his death the girl deeply grieved, and vowed vengeance on the men whom she re- garded as his murderers. She dis- guised herself asa man, and enlisted in her deceased lover’s regiment. She s three times wounded, and her sex was only discovered, long after she had left the army, on her death.

Similar reasons have urged many women to become defenders of their country. Annie Mills, disyuised as a man, became a sailor in the royal navy in 1720, her object being to be near her lover, a sailor on one of her Majesty’s

ships. Captain Dubois, whose real name was Marie Jeanne Dubois, served throughout Napoleon’s disas- trous Russian cempaign alongside her lever. Phoebe Hessel was a private in the Fifth regiment under the Duke of

husband proved to be a profligate and deserted her. After a time she forgave her erstwhile lover, an1 determined to seek him far and wide. She there upon assumed the name of James Grey, and enlisted in Gene eral Guise’s regiment at Coventry in 1745. after joining her a got into trouble through committing a breach of disci- pline, “and was sentenced to receive 500 lashes. She took her punishment bare- backed without flinching. Her career was full of adventures. While at Lis- bon a yor ing girl fell in love with her. and wanted to become her wife. She distinguished herself at the siege of Pondicherry, at which she became badly wounded. After the campaign Hannah became a pensioner of Chelsea hospital.
