There are only five men in the Registrars

get 800 per month. They do their work
in such rapid manner that it only re-

in about three hours. In addition to its

CARRAGES PACKED IN STRAW,

How cunning overreached itself is thus
described by the Lewistown (Me.) Journal:
An inoTensive-looking barrel of cabbages
stood in the lower Maine Central Depot
recently, when Officer Roach laid his eye
upon it. 1t surely contained cabbages, for
the green leaves of the vegetable heads
protruded through the air holes cut in the
barrel slaves. piece of bagging, too,
covered the head OF the barrel, after the
fashion of vegetable barrels. The officer
felt the cabbage heads through this cover
ing. 1t would be seen that no more PROOF
would be needed that the contents were
not contraband. But few wisps OF straw
protruded from the loose slaves at the bot
tom of the barrel. Cabbages are, no
doubt, very delicate articles, but shippers
do not usually pack them in straw. The
| barrel was seized and the contents exam-
ined. First came u half-dozen cabbage
heads. Then came head of a different
sort-the head of ten gallon keg OF Wills
Ky. Cabbages had been cut in halves and
the pieces pack, d against the keg SO as to
be seen through the air holes. This was
an ingenious dodge on the part OF the send
er, but packing wisps of straw IN place
of the cabbages in the bottom OF the Daffe
proved to be false economy. ......

ROBBING FRENCH LADIES.

Strategy is thing to be admired when
it is employed for the circumSention OF
rogues. While the French were in Mexico,
stage.robberes on the Monterey road be
came very frequent. The French com,
mander resolved to put stop to them;
and this is how he did it. He dressed up
half dozen Zouaves in ladies' attire, and
sent them on in the next stage, their faces
hidden by wells, their carbines hidden by
their petticoats. The stage was stopped;
the ladies, without waiting to be invited,
left the vehicle and fell into line with the
rest of the passengers. Suddenly series
of reports came from that line, and some
dozen robbers lay dead; the rest discretely
disappeared. For long while afterward
it was only requisite to display shawl ant
bonnet conspicuously to secure a free pas
sage for stage on that route Chambers

It is very easy to spoil children by rear
inc them in idleness. A girl who is never
allowed to sew, all of whose clothes are
made for her, and put on her, till she is
twelve, fifteen or eighteen years OF age. is
spoiled. The mother has spoiled her by
doing everything for her. The true idea OF
self restraint is to let the child venture. A
child's mistakes are better than no mistakes,
because, when cl lid makes mistakes and
has to correct them, it is on the way to
know something. A boy who is put to bed
ut night, who is walked up every morning
and never wakes himself up, and is dressed,
and never makes mistakes in dressing him

takes about being clean; and is fed, and
never has anything to do with his food; ana

UNCOMFORTABLE.


In olden times church pews were un-
comfortable affairs. In the Anglo-Saxon
and some of the Norman churches, stone
bench running round the interior OF the
church. except the east side, was the only
sitting accommodation for the visitors
In 1919, the people are represented as sit
ting on the ground or standing. A little
later, the people introduced low, three
legged stools promiscuously over the
church. Soon after the Norman conquest,
wooden seats we're introduced. In 1887,
decree was issued in regard to wrangling
for seats. SO common that none should call
anv seat in church his own, except noble
men or patrons, each entering and holding
the one he first found From 1910 to 1880
seats were more appropriated. In 1908,
galleries were introduced, and as early as
1914 pews were arranged to afford comfort
by being baized or cushioned, while the
sides around were so high as to hide the
occupants-a device of the Puritars tc
avoid being seen by the officers, who re
norted those who did not stand when the
name of Jesus was mentioned.
