Bishop Wilberforce encountered his

to her carriage.
' 'What,' going away?"
"Only because 1' can't get in."
' "Do yon mean that yon really wish to.
stop?". . r ' .
. "I came on pm-pose."
"Then take my arm."
The crowd at the door was excessive
At last the beadle appeared, to whom?,
the bishop in his blandest manner, "saidr.
' "Yon will be so good as 'to give" this,
lady the best seat in the church."
, "Impossible, air church quite fullP'
The bishop calmly, but with, emphasis,
repeated his orders. .
"Quite iitiiKjssible!" repeated the bea
dle. "I tell yon, sir. the church is quite
full. "Oh, but." was the rejoinder. 'I won't,
preach' if you don't!"

Wire Finer Than Hair.
We. are at , work just now on some
pretty small wire. It is l-500th of an
inch in diameter finer than the hair on
your head, a great deal. Ordinary fine
wire is drawn through steel plates, bnt
that wouldn't' do for -this work, because'
if the hole wore away ver so little it
would make the wire larger, and that
would spoil the job. Instead, it is drawn
through what is practically a hole in a
diamond, to which there is, of course, no
wear. These diamond plates are made
by a woman in New York, who has a
monopoly' of the art in this country.
The wire is then ran through machinery,
which, winds it spirally with' a layer of
silk.i thread that is .0013 of an inch in
thickness even finer, than tiie wire, you
see.' .This . wire is used, in ..making the-
