Last evening some person or persons

Customs Of the English Bar.

Forty years ago an Old Bailey practi-
toner who wore beard was summoned
to attend meeting Of the bar and charged
with violating the honorable traditions
Of the profession. He sought acquittal
on the ground that q serious affection Of
the throat compelled his transgression Of
the unwritten ordinances Of the bar, but
his judges declined to accept his defense
and sent him to Coventry. Times, The Law
Journal, points out, have changed now.
"Half of the ordinary members of the court
Of appeals now wear boards, Lord Justice
Lopes, Lord Justice Rigby and now Lord
Justice Kay having departed from the ira
ditions of the bench. The only other judges
who wear boards are Lord Watson and Sir
Francis Jeune."
Another terrible instance of departure
from ancient precedent was deplored last
night by the lord chief justice in his anus
ing speech to the Hardwicke society. The
"eminently judicial habit of taking snuff
was, he regretted to say, falling into almost
complete desuetudc. He remembered Sir
James Bacon telling him on one occasion
that when he was II junior there was not II
single man in the court, from the Judge
on the bench to the usher, who did not
carry n snuffbox, and he ended by saying,
"Herc | am, the only man left with a
snuffbox." And now the only man left is
the chief himself but all that one man can
do he does. -Westminster Gazette

Letter Carriers In the Alps.

Among letter curriers' the world over
probably there are few who undergo for so
small pittance such terrible hardships as
those who carry tie mails in the high Alps
in winter. They are paid but % cents per
day and frequently lose their lives In the
performance of their duty. The world at
large hears of them but rarely, and then

On the way from Abres, on the French
side, to BObbio, in Italy some miles before
reaching the Col dc la Croix, separating the
two countries, there Is house of refuge,
which was built nearly 100 years ago by
the French government. For some time
previous to last winter it was kept by
cantonnicr and his wife, but through care
lessness or complacencc they allowed
Italian soldiers to come there and spy
across the border. Last winter therefore,
two gendarmes were stationed there, and
the place was furnished with telephone
to the village below. They were supplied
with provisions every two days by post
man named Blanc, from Abries, some
miles distant. The snow fell so deeply one
night in February that it filed the steep
pass which led to the house where the two
soldiers were stationed. Blanc, neverthe-
less, knowing that they would soon be
without provisions, set out to relieve them.
He did not return, and the next day his
body was found. The two gendarmes,
meanwhile were starving, and it was only
at the risk of their lives that some hardy
villagers rescued them two days later

The Morning Nap.

1t is claimed that one of the reasons for
the undisturbed morning sleep, especially
for children and delicate and nervous per-
sons, is based on well understood scien-
hflc theory. We are told that the vitality
Of humanity is at its lowest obb between Q
and half past in the morning. This be-
Ing the case it would naturally require
some hours to restore the equilibrium.
1t Is very easy to see that If the cares Of
the day are taken up before this Is secured
the individual would start in handicapped
by certain lack of force
Where the rest continues uninterruptedly
until the voluntary awakening 1t stands TO
reason that the system is in much better
condition TO perform its allotted task. So
important to>1hc well being of the individ-
ual is this little understood and scarcely
appreciated quality that we call vitality
that it is well worth while to see to 1t that
every condition is made as favorable as
possible To this end undisturbcd rest
with the best surroundings is a thing to
which good deal more attention should
be paid-New York Ledger.
