A Witty Bishop.
A good story is told of a war of words
between the paradoxical Oscar "Wilde
and a witty bishop whom ho met at a
social gathering. Church aud stage
crossed swords, aud it was not the
church that hit the .dust.
"I am yours, my lord," said Mr.
Wilde, bowing low and smiling ironically, "to my shoe buckles."
"I am yonrs," said the courtly bishop, "to the ground."
The author of "An Ideal Husband"
continued:
"I am jcurs to the center of the
earth."
The pillar of the church (jnicMy responded:
"I am yours to the antipodes."
Oscar "Wilde began to feel .decidedly
nettled. Indignant at his defeat hy a
mere clergyman and a man of piety he
exclsiimed, as a last thrust:
"lam yonrs to the lowest pit of destruction!"
"There, Mr. "Wilde," responded the
divine, *'I think I'd better leave you!"

CLIMATE AND  COMPLEXION.
"Docs tlio Color of the Shin Depend Upon
Meteorological Conditions?
The Egyptian has remained white
notwithstanding a constant mixture
with the hlack Nubians. The people
who live in tho dry section of the Nubian desert have a red skin. Other races
that are brown or that vary from a
white to a chamois color also live in dry
country. The Abyssiuians, however, in
whose country the plateaus are well irrigated, are blacker. Tho blackest negroes in Africa are those who live in
Guinea, whei e the greatest amount of
rain falls. Ia Asia, says the writer, it
is the same as in India. There is a close
relation between the fall of rain and tlie
color of the people. The more moist the
climate is, the darker the skin of the
natives. As ono goes tip the Ganges the
climate heconi.es drier and the skin of
the natives whiter. The Bengalese are
hlack, hut the Sikhs and the Rajpoots
are of a dead white color.
In America it is the same. Tho Brazilians are generally darker than the in-
hahitants of the Andes. The Portuguese,
who come from a rainy country, settled
in Brazil, while tho Spaniards inhahit
the Andes and the dry La Plata section.
Spain is very dry as compared with
Portugal, and the Portuguese in Europe
have the darkest skins of all Europeans.
Heat, light and humidity, says the
writer, are, then, all causes of pigmentation. In dealing with these three
causes the question cf pigmentation of
the skin is alone, and their relative influence, he says, is a very complicated
one. Per instance, persons inhabiting
a mountainous district, where the climate is cooler, have a lighter skin than
those who live on the plains, although
it has been seen that the Ahyssiniana
are an exception to the rule. The native of Abyssinia is darker on the plateaus and lighter on the plains.
In Peru the inhabitants on the coast
have a lighter skin than those on the
mountains. D'Orbigny observed that in
America in the impenetrable forests the
savages were lighter; the darkness evidently prevented pigmentation. "What,
asks the writer, causes the difference between the negro laborer exposed to tho
sun ahd the Brazilian savage who lives
in the forest? The latter is more cr less
chocolate colored, but not black. Are
these facts, he asks, sufficient to prove
absolutely Bufcon's assertion that the
color of the skin depends on the climate?
Evidently not. If they were, We should
see the * descendants cf a white person
become black, aud vice versa. The acclimated white man decs not work in the
sun, and he preserves his white skin at
a Brahman docs. Furthermore, itwould
recmire many generations to accomplish
the change.—New York Medical Journal.

SDlieitor for Complainant
life In Olden England.
In his youth Augustus J. C. Hare
lived with his adopted parents at a rectory in Shropshire, and of the life there
he gives some picrnrescrae details in the
story of nis life:
When there was "a wash" at Stoke,
which Was about every three weeks, it
was a rule with granny that, summer
or winter, it must always begin at 1 a.
m. At that hor*-. old Hannah Berry nsed
to arrive from *.c village, the coppers
were heated and the maids at work.
The ladies'maids, who were expected to
do all the fine muslins, etc., themselves,
had also always to be at the wttsbtubs
at 3 a. m.—by candlelight. If any one
was late, the housekeeper reported to
Mrs. Lcycester, who was soon down
upon them pretty-sharply. Generally,
however, her real practical kindness and
generosity prevented any ono minding
"Mrs. Leycester's severity. It was looked
uponj as only "her way," for people
were not so tender in those days as they
are now, and certainly no servants would
have thought of giving np a place which
was essentially a good one because they
were a littlo roughly handled by their
mistress. In those days servants were as
liable to personal chastisement as the
children of the house and would as little
thought of resenting it. "You don't
suppose I'm going to hurt my hand boxing your ears," said granny when about
to chastise the school children she was
teaching, and she would take up a book
from the table and use it soundly, and
then say. "Nov.* we mustn't let the other ear bo jealous," and turn the child
round and lay on again on the other
side. Granny constantly bosed her
housemaids' ears, and, alas, when he
grew very old, she used to box dear
grandpapa's, though she. loved him dearly, the great source of offense being that
he would sometimes slyly give the servant's elbow a tip when his daily tablespoonful of brandy was being poured
out.
