Women who love their husbands generally lie upon their right side.
NOTE.--I can only speak, from experience, of one; and, as regards her,
the observation is true.

[Illustration: ~St. John’s Well, at Harpham, Yorkshire.~]
_To the Editor._
The preceding sketch was made on the 17th instant. The well stands by
the roadside. The covering stones, though heavy, were at that time laid
as above represented, having just before been knocked over by some
waggon. Although but a poor subject for the pencil, it is an object of
interest from its connection with St. John of Beverley.
“St. John of Beverley may be challenged by this county (York) on a
threefold title; because therein he had his
“1. Birth; at Harpham, in this county, in the East Riding.
“2. Life; being three and thirty years, and upwards, archbishop of
York.
“3. Death; at Beverley, in this county, in a college of his own
foundation.
“He was educated under Theodorus the Grecian, and archbishop of
Canterbury. Yet was he not so famous for his _teacher_ as for his
_scholar_, Venerable Bede, who wrote this John’s life; which he hath so
spiced with miracles, that it is of the hottest for a discreet man to
digest into his belief.”
See “Fuller’s Worthies,” in which a lengthened account of St. John may
be found.
