A Tough Set.

Every newspaper publisher has
an occasional subscriber whose
soul seems to have been made out
of the fag end of the material.
We are always thankful when
such are lifted from our list. The
sooner the better. They general
ly refuse to take the paper after
receiving it two Or three years
without paying for it-a plain
steal with an insult added. O.
else they move away without pay
ing a nickel. Or they all at once
discover that they never ordered
it, or that they received it irregu-
larly-"not half the time-won't
pay for It," In either case it is a
mean snap such as an honest man
would not be guilty Of The
proper way to stop newspaper is
to pay up first and then stop it
afterwards. Ify you are a gentle
man and don't owe a cent, walk
into the office and candidly say
you do not wish the paper, or can't
afford to subscribe. Ifyou are on
the hog plan, chuck it back into
the postoffice and mark it "refus-
ed. "-& Martin Rereille.

death rate Of the community as

Next are gardeners and nursery

paper, lace and hosiery manufac-

and coal miners, with al! Of whom
the average death rate is under

pations are the trades connected
with the liquor traffic and hotel
service, with which the death rate
is 1905; following these ale gen
eral laborers in London, 1920:
costermongers, bankcrsa and street
sellers, 1879, inn keepers. etc,
1886; and brewers, 1861. After
the trades connected with alcohol,

Ills snrpr SO, il not JOY, is the young
singer. While she Is borne away in
safety, lo faints and falls.
It is two days before lie comes to his
senses at his hotel. 1t would DO weeks
before he got round. What mattered
1t? Sho came daily to SEQ him and
Inquire after his welfare.
All! it was tho old, old story. But
ne did not tell it then or there. He
told the young singer q story Of a diff
fcrent kind; Of Il lovely little cottage
among tho pinewoods of Surrey, and
Of an old man who wasdylng of sorrow
because his daughter would nevor. como
again. And tho girl bout her head and
sobbed, aud those tears told Wilhelm
all.
There was JOY in that Surrey cottage
whom Marie returned. With ller came
sunshine; sunshine to bird and flower
and tree. and sunshine to old Albano's
heart.
There IS a large house now among
tho pines near the littl0 cottage.
Wilhelm is it's wealthy owner, Marie
its mistress. And long indeed they
would think that day That did not bring
them q visit from Father Albano.
