W ill It Is perfectly well known to every one tbat water constantly dropping upon a stone will wear It away, and there Is a trite old proverb regarding this fact. Tbe force of a single drop o f water falling from a height is not great, but tbe results of this tiny blow when It Is niaDy times repeated are astounding, even though we do know that tbe stone will, in time, yield to tbelr power. There was a form o f torture known to medieval days as tbe “ ordeal of dropping water,” but tbe term conveys little Idea o f tbe horrible suffering which this punishment is said to in­ flict Tbere ts a story o f one poor wretch who was bouud with bis back to a stone wall and bad a stream o f water “o f tbe blgneee of a man's finger" di­ rected onto bis bare bead, tbe water falling from a height o f about eighteen fe et Tbe receptacle from which this apparently harmless stream trickled was a barrel bolding only twenty-odd gallons, but before tbe water had more than half run out tbe man was dead, wltb a bole lu his skull which exposed tbe brain. By way o f experiment, an American, who is mentioned as "a sport and an acrobat” made a wager In Vienna with an athlete tbat tbe latter could not en­ dure tbe falling o f a pint of water on bis band, drop by drop, in one spot from a height o f only three feet. The athlete bad an enormous band, lined with skin almost as thick and tough as cowhide, and all the spectators pronounced tbe bet a foolish one as far aa tbe American was concerned. But when about 300 drops had fallen there was a change of sentiment. Tbe athlete did not say a word, but It was very apparent from tbe fluah on his face and bis uneasy manner tbat be waa suffering great pain. At the 420th drop be guve up, declaring that be could no longer endure tbe torture. Tbe palm of his hand was then bad­ ly swollen nnd rapidly inflaming, and in oue *jw>t the skin had broken, expos­ ing the raw flesh beneath. "EA R TH Q U A KE G O W N S ."

Tbe truth about It Is tbat In tbe Vulgate, or Latin Bible, the word “ dlvee" is used where tbe name of tbe man might have been given ; but “divee” Is a Latin adjective, meaning “ rich," and not a proper noun at all.

"Several people,” wrote the scoffing Horace, "are going out o f town; they •ay tbey are not frightened, but that it Is such fine weather, 'Lord, oue can't help going to the couutry!' ” According to the same pen, which spared no one, the Bishop o f Oxford, tearing to lose his Raster offerings, tried to stay tbe general exodus by preachtug a sermon, exhorting people to “ await God’s good pleasure In feer and trembling.” This did not prevent 780 coaches from passing Hyde Park corner, bound for tbe country and safe­ ty, within three days. “ Several women have made earth­ quake gowns; tbat Is, warm gowns to sit out o f doors all night,” wrote Wal­ pole, whose unkind eye nothing seems to have escaped. “These are o f tbe more courageous. One woman, still more heroic. Is come to town on pur­ pose; she says all her friends are In London, and she w ill not survive them.” Tbere were two shocks, a month apart, and both during tbe night; so It is easy to Imagine the panic within doors when a certain wit, having dined one evening rather more plenteously than usual, knocked at several doors in Piccadilly, and cried In a watchman’s voice, "Past 4 o’clock, and a dreadful earthquake!” We have no reason to be­ lieve tbat an earthquake In Piccadilly o f to-day would find men and women less inclined to make themselves ridic­ ulous.— London Chronicle.
