'he other day an Anglican clergy man prosecuted a young woman for trespassing on "his" churchyard und damaging "his" hay growing there in by visiting her sister's grave and placing Bowers thereon. Com menting on this incident London Truth says: "Iy two sentimental fictions the churchyard is God's aero and tho church the national or tho people's church, lint indry law (lod's acre is tho incumbent's freehold, and tho only right of the people in tho national' churchyards is the right to bo buried there. Next to tho right of a vicar to tho grass growing on a grave I think tho most obnoxious privilege to the benelieed clergy is their right to levy toll on monuments in churchyards. The other day a gentleman desired to plaeo a stono wall around the grave of his mother in Hampstead cemetery. Ho found that ho could not do so without pay ing a fee of 4 Ills to the vicar of Hampstead. Were I to propose to abolish such fees I should Ik; charged with 'sacrilogo' or possibly even robbing God.' " .Shoe lllackeiiliig. Shoo blackening by electricity, with the aid of the human hand, has been known for some timo. but shoe black ening without that interve ning agen cy is a novelty just introduced in a St. Louis hotel. The device is composed of throe brushes, two of which run parallel with each other. Theso brushes move back and forth tho mo ment the foot is placed on the support between them. Tho third brush is placed vertically to tho two others, and tho bristles of tho former move in and out of the bristles of tho latter. The third brush has a rotary motion around its own axis, and then through the combined motion of the three brushes, operated by electricity, a very nicely polished shoo is turned out. lierr in the 1'nited States. The brewing of lager beer in this country was begun about fifty years ago in the outskirts of Philadelphia. Beforo that browery products were entirely ale and porter. Now, how ever, nearly all tho output, which last year amounted to 83,822,000 barrels.ia of lager. Each barrel contains 243 pints, or 496 glasses; therefore, ac cording to the latest internal revenue returns, there was made and sold last year an average glass of beer for every working day to every man, woman and child in the United States. life' Problems Solved.
