An. experienced traveller says that
in sleeping car the upper berth is
cooler in summer, because there is
more air stirring in the top of the
car, and warmer in winter than the
lower berth, because the warm air
rises and there is not SO many
draughts. He might have added
another recommendation. If the
berth breaks down, you fall on top
of the lower-berth fellow every time.

Statistics of Mortality and Occupation.

Statistics of Mortality and Occupation.
Some interesting facts in connection
with this subject appear in the supple
ment to the forty-tfth report OF the
registrar general. 1t is shown that on
the average the agriculturists have a
comparative mortality figure of ga,
the shopkeepers of s71 and the tailors,
matters, printers and bookbinders OF
LOSS. Living in vitiated atmosphere
seriously affects the respiratory organs.
The mortality from diseases Of these
organs and from phthisis, taken to-
gether, 1ys for the fishermen and 23'
for the agrieulturists, while for diapers
and grocers 81, and for tailors and
printers 5ig. As diapers live in a more
initiated air than grocers, and printers
than tailors, so the mortality in these
several trades corresponds to the differ.
ences in each case.
Arranging the various industries in
the order of purity of air the following
are the averages of deaths from phthisls
and diseases of the respiratory system
Fishermen, 1873; agriculturists, 237
grocefs, 2s3; diapers, 43O; tailors, AL
and printers, 62i. As regards chimney
sweeps, the death rates, are lower thar
in the previous record, but still are ex
ceedingly high, and give comparative
mortality figure of no less than 1919.
Cancer is prolific cause Of death among
chimney sweeps. Out of 2i2 deaths in
which the causes were ascertained there
were A. due to forms of malignant dis.
ease. This is equal to 2O2 deaths from
this cause to 1000 deaths from al
causes whereas the proportion of death
from malignant disease to deaths from
all causes among males of from % to B
years of age in England and Wales i
only 80 in 1000. The liability of chin
ney sweeps to malignant disease is abou
eight times as great as the averag
liability for all males. -London Times

Chinese Wood sawyers' Secret Signals.
The Chinese wood sawyers have sort
of sign language of their own, in which
the signs are made with sticks of cord
wood. When Chinaman has taken a
contract to saw pile of wood be places
several sticks on the top of the pile in a
peculiar position, which informs all
other Cinnamon that the contract has
been let, and thus the owner Of the
wood is kept free from the annoyance
of having q dozen Cinnamon day ring
ing his bell and asking for job. Should
the wood pile belong to q man who Is
not good pay, several sticks of the wood
are arranged by some chinaman who
has been victimized by the party, in
such manner that no other Chinaman
will ask for the job of saving it. Any
one who has had pile Of wood lying In
front OF his premises for several days
without some Chinaman applying for
the job Of saving it may know that be

Equality I'm a Mining Ca,np of 10.

Social and financial inequalities
between man and man were altogether
swept out of sight Each stranger was
welcome, and told to take a pan and pick
and 60 to work for himself. The richest
miner in the camp was seldom able to
hire servant; those who had been glad
toserve others were digging in their own
claims. The veriest greenhorn was as
. likely to uncover the richest mine in the
gulf as was the wisest OF eX professors
of geology, and, on the other hand,
the best claims on the river might sud
denly give out and never again yield

The poorest man in the camp could
have a handful of golddust for the ask.

so an old miner writes me, "a lad of 16

and penniless. There were thirty robust
and cheerful miners at work in the
ravine, and the lad sat on the bank
watching them awhile in silence, his
face telling the sad story of his for.

to his fellows, saying: Boys, I'll work

must get down from the pulpit, and sit
for the rest of his life on back seat of
the church.
Uncle Pete arrived at home very late
on saturday night, and retired to his
simple couch, without knowing any,
thing OF the terrible storm which was
to burst upon him on the morrow. But
the next morning, long before church
time, he received warning of what was
to happen. But the old man possessed
a stubborn soul, not easily to be fright
ened.
"Wot / says in de pulpit" he re.
marked, "I'll 'splain in de pulpit! YOU
all nd better git long to de chu'ch, an
when de time fur de service come, Ill
be dar."
As soon as he entered the church he
was formally instructed by committee
of the leading members that before he
began to open the services he must make
it plain to the congregation that what
he had said on the preceding Sunday
about every woman being possessed oil
seven devils was Scripture truth. and
not mere wicked nonsense out OF hia
own brain. II he could not do that,
they wanted no more praying or preach
ing from him.
Uncle Pete made no answer, but,
ascending the little pulpit, he put his
hat on the bench behind him where II
was used to repose, took out his red
cotton pocket handkerchief and blew hia
nose In his accustomed way, and looked
about him. The house was crowded.
Even Aunt Rebecca was there.
After deliberate survey of the audi
ence, the preacher spoke: ''Brev'ren an
