We have all had our sympathies

Of northern Siberia are often, during

they have jumped ct conclusions with

make inquiries, and because they thought
that statement about being compelled
to use wood for food would make heart

such surroundings.

4 Primitive Method.

AS late as the end of the Sixteenth cen
fury in London the sole method of ex
tinguishing fires was by means of con
trivances known as hand squirts." Thess
were usually made of brass, with a carry
ing capacity ranging from two to foul
quarts of water. The two quart "squirts'
svere two and half feet in length, one incl
and half in diameter at their largest par
and but half an inch at the nozzle. o.
each side were handles, and three mel
were required to manipulate Squirt"
One man on each side grasped the handle
in one hand and the nozzle in the other
while the third man worked the piston Of
plunger, drawing it out while the nozzle
was immersed in Il supply Of water, which
ilied the cylinder. The bearers then ele
waited the nozzle when the other pushed il
the plunger, the skill Of the former being
employed in directing the stream of watel
upon the fire. Such primitive contrivance
are said to have been used during the grea
fire of 666-Detroit Free Press.

British Slavery in Natal.

Before | went to Natal | was always
under the impression that when our war
ships captured cargoes of slaves the latter
were set free at once or as soon after as
possible. But it is not always the case.
Captured slaves are frequently, if not al
ways taken on board and landed at the
nearest British port-say, for arguments
sake, Durham, Natal. WHen landed they
are taken to the police station and kept in
prison till Il certain day named by the local
authorities.
The announcements are then published
by crier and otherwise that on such and
such a day SO many captured slaves will
be distributed to any one requiring serv
ants for certain number of years Tho
only qualification necessary in order to oh
tain such servants is a position of respecta
bility in the locality, such lis belonging to
some profession or trade or possessing i'll
dependent means.
Now, suppose | require a servant. l sign
Il paper before the magistrates, agreeing
to take so and so for SO many years and
feed and clothe him Or her, and, although
am supposed to treat such servant we'll
| can practically do very much as | like
with him short of murder. Should the
unfortunate native get tired of being bull
lied and run away, simply notify the
police authorities to that effect and they
send out their native police in search OF
the runaway, who generally takes shelte.
in the nearest kraal.
On being captured he is brought back tc
the police station, logged and returned to
me-his master Should my servant dc
anything think wrong can also have
him fiogged by the police at any time

An Old Spanish Story.

There is good old story told in Spain
that runs somewhat to this effect
There was Il certain man who was giftet
with very peculiar kind of second sight
When he went to doctors he could sc
outside the door the ghosts of all those pa
tents who had died during the time the
had been attended by the doctor.
One day he himself fell i'll and it becam
necessary that he should seek the assistanc
of a physician, SO he started out to find tn
best one he could. He visited the house
of all the medical men who were suppose
10 be the cleverest in the town, but b
found all their doorways SO blocked up, as
were, with ghosts, that he did not like t
go in.
After traversing all the principal street
and not finding a single doctor whom b
thought he could trust, he at last turne
into a side turning, and outside the door @
a seemingly insignificant doctor he sdy
only one little white ghost glimmerine
therefore, thinking he must be YER
clever doctor who had only killed one pei
son, he went into the house and was at
tended to by the doctor. AS he was leav
ing the doctor said to him.
81 cannot think who recommended Vol
to come to an insignificant man like my
self, seeing that during the whole time
have practiced have only had one patient
and | am quite sure that he did not tel
you. "-London Tit-Bits.
