The Rev. Ezera, the pastor OF the

Bandmaster Berger sent request
to the board that enc of his must

go TO the leper settlement for a few
weeks to instruct the leper band. He
stated that the band had written him
asking that some one be sent them
for that purpose. that they needed in
struction, and that Mekia was per
fectly willing to go. Mekia's wife is
n leper, aud was sent to the settle
ment few weeks ago. The board
tented the request for the time be

introduced:

The Beauty Of Wrinkles.

And now an authority inveighs against
steaIning the face as preventive against
wrinkles. alleging that this is the swift
est and surest process by which to pro-
duce them. The second layer of the
skin becomes attenuated. and there is d
decrease in bulk Of the superficial lay
ers," is the technical explanation which
the laity will not understand and does
not need to. The simple fact is suffi
cient. But why should wrinkles be such
a red rag to every woman? They must
inevitably come if one lives long enough
and barring the suppression of the habit
of frowning and the avoidance of dan
gerpus cosmetics it seems useless to figh,
them.
Time was when we were taught that
they were the lines OF character and
time is when character. as shining forth
in the expression of the face. makes the
wrinkles forgotten. Watch the soul be-
hind the wrinkles. Take as much care
of that as you strive to of the outer layer
of cuticle, which is its external sem
blauce. and the wrinkles Will be lost or
overlooked in the serene and steady eye
and quiet but smiling mouth. Think
lofty things" says preacher, land the
countenance will show the thought. -

Tho Natives Had scruples.

Once an amusing story was told me

habit Of carrying ali sorts of timed
meats, which the natives bought with
avidity. Each IN was branded with a
colored picturc-a COW for beef. a sheep
for mutton and fish lines.

The natives came with their copra to

shown them. but they recoiled with nor

that they had had some religious in

OPINION OF THE COURT BY B1cKERToN.

OPINION OF THE COURT BY BICKERToN, J.
This case was on the trial calendar
for the June term, 1893, of the Cir
cult Court of the Second Circuit, and
the Deputy Attorney General "moved
the Court to strike the case from the
calendar on the ground that there /
no appeal before the Court in any
shape, in that there has been no
notice of appeal filed as required b7
Section 6S of the Judiciary Act"
After hearing argument the Court
ruled that the case was not properly
on the calendar and sustained the
motion, and the defendants by their
attorney noted exception to the
ruling, which exception was allowed.
and the matter now comes here on a
duly allowed bill of exceptions.
This question was decided by this
Court in the case of Mary Kaleialii
ct al. Va NJ s. Griubaum ct al, filed
April 9th, 1893, in which the Conri
says: 1--WE are of the opinion thar
this statute means that the party
appealing shall reduce such notice t."
writing aud deposit it." = =
But the defendants COUNSEL in thi>
case contends that q certificate OF
the District Magistrate that tho APP
peal has been properly perfected,
is conclusive evidence that the
appeal has been properly perfected
We are not of that opinion. 1t must
appear from the record itself sent up
that all the requirements Of the law
have been complied with; this writ
ten notice would be part of the file
and record sent up if it had been
filed; it Is absent from the file, and
the record does not show that such
notice was filed, in fact the counsel
for defendants in his argument viz
tually admitted that it had not been
filed, for he offered excuses for the
parties not knowing that this WAS
one of the requirements of the law.
We are of the opinion that the
case of Kaleialii vs. Grinbsum above
cited is decisive of this case, and
therefore override the exceptions.

newsboy was that his face ana hands
were clean. The boy in the good
clothes bought paper. He immedi-
ately began to read it as the men do.
while he absently held out his gloved
hand for the change While the news
boy counted the pennies into the palm
of the new kid glove he looked his Gus
toner over, not contemptuously, as
one might imagine, but rather visit
fully. Then he walked slowly out of
the car looking back over his shoulder
at the wel-dressed boy. A change of
horses was being made, and the news
boy stopped outside Of the window
with his papers under his arm and his
hands in his pockets, still looking at
the boy in the derby hat. The wistful
expression deepened and grew. One
could read upon his face what he was
thinking. and a gentleman who had
watched the little incident said with
sigh as the car started on: Things
don't seem to be very well evened up
in this world" and everybody seemed
to understand except the boy who was
still looking at his paper, and his
mother, who was fondly gazing at him.

tot his escort who he was:

The boy raised himself on his elbow
with some effort. and said eagerly in
the Russian tongue:
Yes, your majesty, but my grand
father is an officer in the United States

LoNpoN.s LORD MAYOR.
fyhen&t Arrayed in State Robes Ills Glor
Ii Like Unto Solom0n's.


Ii Like Unto Solomon's.
The fountain of municipal honor in
England undoubtedly springs from the
Guildhall. London, which Justly claims
to be accounted the most ancient of
our municipal halls, says the London
Telegraph, seeing that the lord mayors
of the last eight centuries are with
Justice assumed to have had prototypes
in the Roman project and the Saxon
fortreye or rortgrave. For consider
able number of years the robes of the
lord mayor, the court of aldermen and
the common councillors have been set
tiled with a precision that none save
the most reckless of innovators
would presume to disturb. The lord
mayor himself has his ''gold' robe for
the occasion of the annual Guildhall
banquet and for the times when he
proceeds in state either to the new
1aw courts or TO the houses of parlia-
ment. The aldermen have their scar
let gowns. the sheriffs their distinctive
and very handsome robes and chains,
while the common councillors rejoice
sn gowns called ''mazarines," it being
generally understood that maZarine
is term for particular dark-blue
color, although. according to some lexi-
cographers. mazarine only means a
drinking vessel and an old way of
dressing fowls.
Then, again, when the sovereign
comes into the city, the lord mayor is
bound TO don a robe of crimson or pur-
pie velvet, trimmed with ermine. At
the time of his investiture he wears
massive gold chain, but when he is
honored by reelection, at the expira-
ton of his term of Office, he wears
two chains. The mace of silver-gilt,
surmounted by royal crown and the
imperial arms, is carried before the
mayor by the authority of the charter
of Edward I'LL: while the city possesses
no less than four swords-one called
Pearl" presented by Queen Bess
when she opened the first royal ex-
change, and so called from its being
richly sec with pearls. This sword
precedes the chief magistrate on all
occasions Of rejoicing and festivity.
The sword of state is carried before
the lord mayor as an emblem of his
within the city proper;
the ''black' ssword is used on fast days
in Lent andiat the death of any mem
Der of the royal family, while the
fourth sword is that placed close to
the lord mayors chair at the central
criminal, court.
