King William Ill. sickly from his
very birth, was thrice given up by his doc

owed his death chiefly to the effects of a

How the ''Bunko" Game Did not Take

A stocky man with square shoulders, rotund
vest and close clipped sandy beard, hurried
out of the main entrance of the Fifth Avenue
Hotel, New York, the other morning and
started along Twenty-third street toward the
elevated railway station. Two bunko men
stood in the shadow of mournful cab horse
and watched the stocky man with the clio g
Clipped, sandy beard. The habits of bunko
men are well defined. When their victim ap-
proaches, No. rushes up, and grasping him
warmly by the hand says: "Mr. Jones Of
Skenateles, how are you?" The intended vic
tim, who is possibly Smith of Penn Yam, tells
his name and address to No. ], who retires
with diffidence and bushes, and confdes it to
No. 2. A little later No. runs up and ex-
claims: 'Why, Smith of Pen Van, 'ow are
yer?" whereupon Smith promptly afirms that
he is enjoying good physical health, and be-
trays his mental condition by Immediately ac-

THE Irish land act just passed has a
clause providing that government funds
may be used with the object of reclaiming
waste land Out of the total area of Ire
land nc, ,S0S.271 acres). between five and six
millions of acres are uncultivated. Nearly
4,000,0O0,000 of acres of this waste land
have been pronounced by most excellent
Irish and English authorities to be reclaim
able, the most of it being in the west of
Ireland and in the districts where the great
est suffering prevailed in 1916 and 1S47 and
1870 and 1880. Half of Connaught is uncul-
tivated, although /, 800, 900 acres of it can be
proftably cultivated. OF the 1864, 900 acres
in Mayo, 100000 acres are waste land, near
lv all of which is reclaimable. Kerry has L.
16S, 900 acres, of which 100000 are waste,
and 400, 900 acres of that are reclaimable. 1t
has been pointed out that the landlords own
nearly 100000 acres of bog land. which
can be drained as effectually as the same
kind of land has been drained in England.
The reclamation of the bog land would of
itself furnish an area to produce food for
100000 of people, 100000 more than
there are now in Ireland. A stock company

Old Scottish Society.


tDlackwoods Me Tazne.]
Edinburgh society was a strange jumble OF Ii
cense and formality, punctilious observance of
etiquette and semi-barbarous Indifference to
the decencies. "a man of blood and position
might steal horse, where plebian or parve1a
dare not look at the halter Everybody spoke
a dialect OF the Northern Doric, with a marked
hyperborean accent; but there were ladies and
gentlemen of the highest station who seem to
have prided themselves on the breadth and
yulgarity of their Scotch. Fine ladies who in
habited fats on fifth or sixth story were
linhtad down tho ndnriferous common stairs.
delicately "kilting" their robes of brocade.
They were borne to private parties or to the
Assembly Room in their sedan-chairs by
couple of "caddies' at "spring trot," along
filthy closes and through ill-paved alleys fit
fully illuminated by flaming torch In the
Assembly Room the old courtly style was car
ried into the formal old-fashioned dances, with
an elaborate profusion of obeisances and court
estes. Scarcely even in the Court Of the
Grand Monarque, as described by st Simon,
were the rules of etiquette and precedence
more vigorously observed. There were self
elected mistresses of the ceremonies, like the
famous Miss Nickie Murray, who ruled over
the management and company with an iron
sceptre We may picture the demure proprie-
ty with which young ladies of honorable fami-
lies, fresh from the country, received the at
tentions of the brilliant town sparks, pro-
nounced eligible as partners either for min
ute or for life. While, on the other hand,
knowing that the gentlemen, generally speak
ing, had been launching themselves handsome
ly into the ballroom with some half-gallon or
so of full-bodied Bordeaux, we suspect that
the inqeJsueS must sometimes have opened
their eyes at the compliments and conversation
offered to their inexperience, But it was not
in the manners of the time to be over-nice.
Exemplary matrons, of unimpeachable morals,
were broad of speech and indelicate in
thought, without ever dreaming OF actual evil.
So the respectable Mrs. Keith, OF Ravelstone,
commissioned Scott in her old age to procure
a copy of Mrs. Behn,s novels for her editica-
tion. She was so shocked on her first attempt
at a perusal of them that she told him to take
"his bonny book' away. Yet, she observed,
when young woman she had heard them
read aloud in company that saw no shadow
of improperly in them. And whatever the
fanlts of old Scottish society with its sins Of
excess and its shortcomings in refinement,
there is no disputing that its ladies were strict
ly yirtuous, and such slips as that OF the hero
inc of the ballad of "Baloo, My Boy" were so
are as to be deemed worthy of recording ins
rhymes So the reformation of manners was a
| satisfactory as it was easy, since the founda-
tions of the new superstructure were sound.

exclusive benefit of those who own its pews
and pay for its privileges, it is open to question
whether it is any more Of a public institution
than private school, subscription library or
a social club-whether, in fact, it is not a
mere religious club. And when a congregation
lavishes money on architecture, brilliant
preaching and fine music, while spending in
significant sums in works of benevolence, the
claim Of the church to being considered char
ity is rather feeble.
Another serious objection to the exemption
enioyed by religious organizations, and one
which in fact often amounts TO an abuse, is the
gross inequality in the value of the property
exempted. Here is an edifce that cost half
