LABOR NOTES.

The usual hours for French printers arc from
z a. m. TO 6 p. N. in Summer, and from a. m.
10 p. m. in Winter. On the morning papers
the hours are from ?. m. 20 a. m. One hour
is allowed for dinner. The weekly hands get
6 francs 20 centimes 1926 day, aud piece
hands make from 3 10 francs go to 80 ccntsl
Overtime is paid for at the same rates, plus q
centimes IS cents). Wages are paid weekly OF
fortnightly, but many establishments have a
system Of delaying the weekly pay eight DAYS.
An effort is being made 10 introduce tho eight.
hour system, but majority of the printers
voted at recent election against law making
such system compulsory.

Facial Gymnastics.


The face is the index, the mirror of thought
watch mans face, note the eye-fasb, catch
his expression, and you know the man; no
need Of words" says the Layater of to-day,
the man Of shrewd business tact. And so il is
in truth. since with pity be it said, Talleyrand
is often right: Words are used but to conceal
thought" When thought is sufficiently strong
to stir the nature it shows itself first in the
wake-up Of the eye, as most closely connected
with the brain. 10 next spreads its impulse
over the face, moving some muscle Of mouth or
cheek or brow, and, ii not spent according to its
force sweeps outward to arm and hand, and
perhaps finally presses the body into action.
Gesture is any movement of muscle which fol-
flows Or expresses emotion. It is continued
face gesture, frequently useless, from year to
year. which brings wFiukled age. One should
recognize that there is all the difference in
the world between the impulse of genuine emo
tion and feeling with the natural gestures aud
play Of face and feature, and those multitu-
dinOus and ineessant facial gymnastics with
which conversation is frequently absuTdly en-
livened aud emLellished. The same may be
said Of the extreme use Of the arm and hand,
slashing, pounding and pointing when no such
force is needed; it rarely is in the gentle flow
OF social life. 1t is, however much a matter of
temperament and climate. One finds those Of
Southern cline and warm blood or of light,
volatile nature, as the French, depending upon
action TO help the words; but be il remembered
that il is in effect still the same-a waste OF
force and energy. The woman who continually
stretches her eyes, twists, screws, and contracts
her lips in mOuthing her words and sentences,
however charming. is forming habits of muscle
use which will surely trace premature and in
dalihla lines

sequences of conduct.

The former, whose center isnow New Guinea,

much disputed, but there is no doubt that they
are distributed and have become dominant IN
insular areas, where the facts indicate an ad-

Church Rectors' Portraits Wanted to Hang
on the Walls.

Church Rectors' Portraits Wanted to Hang
the Walls.
The building Of the Young Mems Christian
Association is at present undergoing some ex-
tensive repairs. The walls of the building
having slightly bulged out on account of the
weight of the roof, it has been deemed adyis-
able 10 put in some substantial iron braces,
and the building is again perfectly safe.
The interior Of the large hall will, IN part,
be replastered and repaiuted, and similar I'M
proyements will be made in various parts OF
the building.
For a number of years the Association has
been in the possession of two excellent OIL
paintings Of DR.. MINI igerOde. the former rec
tor of st. Pauls church, and Dr. Joshua
Peterkin, the beloved rector OF st. James
church.
To suit the peculiar taste of some one in
authority the portraits had been hung up IN
the upper part of the hallway where they
could hardly be noticed by visitors.
One of the first acts of Mr.. A. Candlish,
the new secretary of the Association, con
sisted in the removal OF the pictures 10 the
parlor where they now occupy the prCmi-
nent places which they 80 fifty deserve.
There is still plenty OF room or similar
pictures, and the Association would very
highly appreciate donations OF portraits OF
the pastors of this city.
The space in the parlor library and read
ing room is rather unlimited and all such
gifts could be accommodated.
At present the Association only possesses
the portraits OF the two Episcopal rectOrs
named above, and it would be very COM
inendable for churches of all denominations
TO present pictures of their pastors to the
Young Mems Christian Association, to enable
the visitors 10 see nj the first glance that the
organization is really mathematician.
