LONDON, Sept 17.-Th semi-annual

as disgraceful as the government of
Queen Elizabeth Mr.. Jones further
said that he could not understand the
policy Of taking EGO, 600 900 in silver out

MUST WAIT UPON THE SERVANTS.
New Zealand Law Attracting Much
Attention In England.

LONDON, Sept. 17.-Considerable in
terest has been aroused in England by
the news that the legislature Of New
Zealand has just passed law Great
ing a statutory half holiday for domes-
tic servants. According to the meas
ure the employer is bound to turn every
servant out Of the house between 8 %.
m. and 10 p. m. on one day each week.
The half holiday is compulsory, not
only In the sense that the employer is
bound to grant 1t, but in the sense
that the servant is bound to take it.
and If any servant Is found at work
during the statutory half holiday the
unfortunate employer is liable to a fine
OF $25. Should the servant return for
meals during the half holiday--and this
is one Of the most beautiful provisions
OF the new law-the master or mistress
will have to minister to the wants Of
the domestic. Under the circumstances
1t Is only natural that every hired girl
in New Zealand will make it a point
of coming home to tea on her half hol-
lday, the privilege of being waited
upon by ones employer being a right
which no lady help, will willingly
forego.
