FOOD FOR THE MIND. In picking out your food for thought From all the bookish jam, Adapt your mood to worthy food And try a little Lamb. Or if that doesn't suit your taste, Then make another grab, From out the books in dusty nooks Select a little Crabbe. And if the books are culled with care And disregard of pelf, Why, bear in mind you'll always find Some Bacon on the shelf. —"Bulletin." A CURIOUS CEREMONY. A curious ceremony took place recently at Geneva, where a young woman twenty years of age was baptised in one of the bathing establishments according to the rites of the Millerists. She appeared in chemisette and short skirt and stood up to her knees in water, and so remained while the minister read some passages from the New Testament. The minister wore a frock coat and high boots. Taking, the postulant by the waist he plunged her into the water and asperged her copiously. Then she was taken into a room aHd dry clothing given her. This is the second baptism of the kind which has taken place in Geneva.—"Globe." The lawyer's version—Where there's a will there's a bill. Many a mushroom of promise is a toadstool of fulfilment. There would be no debtors if promises were legal tenders.
