Guardian Of the Jail In India.
The Jail fixed establishment consisted
of native jailer, with deputies and a
few paid warders, with a semimilitary
guard for sentry work, armed with
muskets and provided with ammunition,
most of which was so old and damp from
the climate that it had to be destroyed
periodically. They were commanded
and drilled by handsome old pensioned
Subahdar native officer). This old gen.
tleman wore a collar of gold beads round
his neck, and over his dress Of spotless
white an embroidered sword belt sup
ported a naive sword in green and
gold scabbard. He was striking look
ing old man, with strict notions of dis
cipline and duty. His father had been at
Plassy with Give.
1t was part of this officers duty to
make his morning report at the magis-
trate's house, if the magistrate had not
had time to go to the Jail on his morn
ing round. His usual report was brief
and emphatic. my lord, the Jail is all
WELL" One morning he continued it
thus: "Be it known to your lordship
that the Jail cat has had five kittens.
Will your lordship order that the cat
have an extr; ration Of milk?" This he
said in the gravest voice, with his hand
still at his forehead in military salute.
When the order was given for the cats
extra ration he marched off without the
shadow Of a smile on his face, while the
magistrate remained almost convulsed
with suppressed laughter.-National Re-
view.

Panama Hats.

Panama hats are so named from the
circumstance of their being shipped
from the port of Panama. They are
manufactured in Ecuador and the neigh
boring states. The material used is the
fiber of the leaf of the screw pine, which
is related to the palms. 1t grows only
on the slopes of the Andes. The tree is
described as having no trunk. The
leaves are on slender stems that spring
from the ground. They are about two
feet long, fan shaped and four parted.
Each of the segments is ten cleft. so that
when the leaf is folded, as in the bud,
there are eighty layers.
The fiber of these leaves is finely
plated, and each hat consists Of a single
piece of work. The plating of the hats
is slow and tiresome process. Coarse
hats may be finished in two or three
days, but the fine one takes as many
months. The work is begun at the
crown and finished at the bri,n. The
hat is made on block, which is placed
on the knees, and has to be constantly
pressed with the breast.
About 200. 900 dozens of these hats are
made every year. The price varies &C
cording to the firmness of the material
and the quality OF the work. They are
valued at from s. to $l0O.-Youths Com
