A police officer approached. He waa

"Is it iMiaalble," Maid Tolstoi to him
self, ‘‘that people are forbidden to auk
charity, In Christ's name—in a Chris

"Brother," lie said to the police, "can
yon read?"
"Yea," said the officer politely.
"Have yon rend the Hlble?”
"Yes."
"And do you remember Christ’#
orders to feed the hungry?" And he

evidently troubled. He turned to his
questioner and asked;
"And you, sir—you can read?"
"Yes, brother."
"Anti have you read the police regu

"Yes, brother."
"And do you remember that begging

marble. This work is Intruwtwd to high
ly skilled artisans, who do» the work
under ttudr direction, and ffce sculp
tors superintend all the finishing
touches aud even occasionally do some
of the rutting on the face aud bands.
The actual cutting of the stone Is a
most difficult process and reipilres
great expert skill. In case a full sized
model Is made the sculptor sends It to
a professional marble cutter, who
roughly shapes the block. The general
shape Is often given to the block lw»-
fore It leaves the marble yard to save
the extra freight. The rough carving
Is then done by the marble cutter, who
mo Hha|s>s the block u» to give It the
general outline of the figure to be re-
prodtieed. He drill* * series of holes
lu the block, the depth 1 ofeach of which
corresponds to an external polut of

the stone. After a sufficient number
of these holes have l>eetv made In the

portion, and what remains gives the

"In Santiago, tho Chilean capital,
where I have Itcen residing for some
years, It Is common to hoc people put
on their overcoats when they enter-a
house and take them olT upon going
Into the street," said a visitor to the
capital.
"Tho cause of this Is that the at
mosphere on the outside Is wanner
than within the residences. The
Chileans do not hoat their domiciles
to any extent, and they are construct
ed of sin'll thick walls that they are a
good deal on the'order of refrigera

The Head of More.
When the wine and witty Sir Thom
as More was boheadi'd his head was
stuck on a pole on London bridge,
where It was exposed for fourteen
days, much to the grief of his datigh
ter, Margaret ltoper, who resolved to
secure it. “One day," says Aubrey, "as
she was passing under tin* bridge, look
ing at her father’s head, she exclaim
ed: ‘That head has lain many a time
In my lap. Would to Hod It would fall
Into my lap as l pass under!' Stic had
her wish, and It did fad Into*her lap.”
Probably she had bribed one of the
keepers of the bridge to throw It over
just as the boat approached, and the
exclamation was intended to avert, the
suspicion of the boatmen. At nil
events, she got possession of it and
preserved It with great care lira leaden
casket until her death, and It is now
Inclosed in a niche In the wall of her
tomb in St iMiiistau's church, Canter

where labor is never oppressed by stress of weather, and where
animal vitality is never lost by mere conflict with cold?

varied than in any other equal area in the world, where the division
of great ranches affords a fine opportunity to get a small farm that
will assure you a competence?
Do you want to live where, with a minimum of labor, you can
71 grow profitable crops of grapes and small fruit, oranges, lemons,
olives, prunes and almonds, alfalfa and grain, where crops are sure,
business is good and capital easily finds profitable investment ?
Then go to California, where both health and opportunity await
your coming.
