Although to-day there are as many
boards in the House of Commons as in
any assembly in the world, twenty-five
years ago there was but one. 1t be-
longed to Mr.. Muntz, member for Bir-
mingham, who did a service by persuad-
ing the Government to adopt the
perforating machine in the manufacture
of postage stamps. Mr.. Muntz shaved
until he was 40 when his brother re-
turned from Germany with fine beard,
which the NJ. P. determined to emulate.
"H. B." the famous caricaturist, was
sOont at "the man with the beard,n as
every one called Muntz, and represented
him in a cartoon as ga Brummagem M.
P.n In this portrait he carries a stout
stick, which has special prominence, the
reason being that an irrepreSsible prac-
tical joker, the Marquis of Waterford,
was supposed to have laid wager that
he would shave Muntz, hence the cudgel
to defend himself from disbarbament.
Mr., Muntz died very wealthy, in 1857.

Uncle William.

A year ago there was a quiet funeral
on wilkins Street, and when it was over
an old man called "Uncle William
was left without home or friends, and
with no means to help himself.
Strangers said that he would have to 90
to the poor-house, but when the trem-
bling and half-blind old man wiped
tears from his eyes, a neighbor said:
81 will take him into my home and
care for him for a month, anyhow"
"And then 1 will take him." added
another.
"And then my roof shall shelter him, ="
said third.
So the old man found friends. One
took him and then another, and he was
well used. They were far from being
rich. Their tables were lean and their
beds cold, and sometimes the little that
Uncle William ate was missed by the
hungry children, but no one ever spoke
unkindly to him nor limited that he was
a burden.
One night last week, after the old man
had sought his bed and the children
were asleep, a husband and wife sat
down to say to each other that work
was scarce, the rent behind, the fuel
nearly gone, and
Here they looked at each other in a
shy way, as if ashamed of their thoughts.
The cold wind whistled around the cot
tage as if hungering to nip little toes,
and the wife shivered and said:
"He is so old and feeble-let us wait
few days longer!'
81 haven't dollar left" mused the
man as he glanced at the cupboard.
"But he eats only very ittle," pro-
tested the wife.
"We have only small house."
"But he sits in a corner"
They looked at each other long time
without speaking. A vision of a poor
old man battling with the fierce winter
gale came to either and stood between
them with hands crossed in supplica-
ton.
"He shall stay!" they whispered to.
gether as they rose up and made ready
for the night, and the gale banged at
the doors as if cheated of its prey.
Morning came with its meagre break
fast. There was not enough for four,
but it must do for seven, and the father
forced smile 10 his face as he opened
the old mans door and called:
"Come, Uncle William, you shall
have the warmest place and the biggest
dish!"
There was no response, and when
they bent over the old man they found
that no man would ever again find him
a burden.
"See!" said the wife, "he may have
heard our whispers, for there is a tear
on his cheek!"
"But he knew the resolve of our
hearts, for he died with smile on his
face" added the husband.
"Oh! he's dead-poor old grandpa
is dead!" cried the children. Chow
glad we are that God will let him have
a big, warm corner and lots of every
thing to eat!"
eff we could have done more for
him!n sighed the wife as her tears fell,
and yet their charity was greater than
his who had subscribed his thousands.

"A fact probably but little known is
that the United States nickel fve-cent
piece furnishes a key to metric measures
and weights. This coin is two cent?
merets in diameter, and its weight is
five grammes. Five of them placed in a

and two of them will weigh deca-
gramme. As kilolitre is cubic meter,
the key to the measure of length is also
the key to measures of capacity.
