LONDON, Nov. 5.-Mr. Gladstone has
written a letter to Mr. Knill, announcing
his inability to attend the coming banquet,
and expressing his regrets. His decision
not to attend the banquet is due, he says,
to the explicit advice of his physician, who
has insisted for the last seven years that he
should absent himself from all public BAN
quets, and who will not permit an excep-
tion to be made on the present occasion. In
concluding Mr.. Gladstone says:

An electric was passing down a
suburban thoroughfare, when it was
hailed by an old woman evidently
from the country. The car stopped,
and after much busting and putting
the woman got in, at the same time
asking the conductor to please take
her to certain street.
By a circuitous route the car soon
reached the street she had asked for.
and the conductor grlffly announced
the fact. Overcome with Joy to find
herself at her destination she squeezed
out, saying to the conductor as she
passed him, her, face beaming with
gratitude:

you do that again. Every time you
