political ieutenants. applied to him for
a position. which be promised to secure

on the judge. he had forgotten all abons
her case, but upon being reminded, apol-
ogized profusely and told her to .call
tomorrow. The judge kept this mp for
nearly a month. when the youn... woman
lost her patience. On the - aston Of
her last visit the judge. who was very
absentminded, did not catch her name
as the servant announced her presence

the room, shook hands with her and be-
gan the old formula.
my dear young lady. am very busy
today: you viii really have to call to-
morrow" But, judge" she protested.
''that is what you have told me for d
month. | have come almost every day,
and you have invariably told me to call
tomorrow. Il beg your pardon, am
sure" said the judge with great suavity.

How soft is the plumage of the owl,
and how noiseless her flight. Watch her
as she floats past the ivy tod. down by
the ricks and silently over the old wood;
then away over the meadows, through
the open door and out Of the loophole Of
the barn; round the lichened tower and
along the course of the Brook. Presently
she returns to her four downy young
with mouse in one claw and vole in
the other. soon to be ripped up, torn and
eaten by the greedy, swapping imps.
Young and eggs are not unfrequently
found in the same nest.
If you would see the midday siesta of
these birds climb up into the haymow.
There, in an angle of the beam, you will
see their owlships snoring and blinking
wide their great round eyes, Their duet
is the most unearthly, ridiculous, grave
noise conceivable; unlike anything you
ever heard. There they will stay all day,
digesting the mice with which they have
gorged themselves until twilight, when
they again issue forth upon their mad
cap revels.
This clever mouser has strong claim
to our protection; SO let not idle super
stiti6n further its destruction. MAN

The French national Printing works.

The French National Printing Works.
The French national printing works
date from the year 1910, and owe their
origin to Louis XIII, who established
them under the title Imprimerie royale.
The works were suppressed at the begin
ming Of the revolution and reorganized
in the Year IL. The state printing office
has had many homes. 1t is now in the
former abode Of the princely house Of
Rohan, in the Rue Vieille du Temple,
which still retains traces of its former
splendor.
Besides executing all the printing of
the ministries and other public bodies,
1.-THE presses Of the Imprimerie rationale
are at the service Of all private individ-
uals who require in their works types
impossible to procure elsewhere. The
collection at the Hotel de Rohan is
unique and contains 200 varieties. It
would almost satisfy the archdeacon of
the story whose sermons could not be
printed because the printer had only one
ton Of parentheses in stock. London

Tor this section is simply an enlargement
in words Of the idea SO compactly ex-
pressed in the statute. If it is material
testimony, it can only be material because
1t would strengthen The applicants case,
and probably lead to different results; and
if it is material, and applicant could not
have discovered it with reasonable dill
gence, common justice demands that he
should have the benefit Of it. 1t is true
that applications Of this kind are directed
largely to the discretion Of the court
and great weight must be given to
the judgment of the court with refer
ence to them, still, if this court thinks
that under all the circumstances Of the
case, substantial justice has been denied to
the applicant, as we think it has in this
case. we will not hesitate to reverse the
ruling. No fixed standard can be estab-
lished for the measurement of every case,
no iron bound rule prescribed, but each
case must be governed by the circum-
