As the charter of the Bank Of France
expires at the end Of the year the bill
for Its renewal Is expected to come
before the French chamber almost any
day, and the Paris correspondent Of the
Economist points out the remarkable
changes that have taken place In the
bill since It was first introduced in
1892. Originally the charter was to
be renewed for twenty-three years;
now it can be. terminated by the gov
eminent at the end of fifteen years.
The former bill required the bank to
pay to the state an annual contribu-
ton Of 100000 francs from the COM
mencement Of 1898; the new bill fixes
the contribution at one-eighth of the
rate OF discount on the average pro-
ductive note circulation. or the amount
Of discounts and loans on securities
In addition to the stipulation that the
existing advances of 140,000.o00 francs
TO the treasury shall cease to bear in
terest, the bank is to advance fur
Their 100000 francs, also without in
terest, and 1t cannot demand repay
ment before the expiration Of its
charter. The note circulation, which
was originally to be raised to 100000
600, is now to be increased to the enor-
nous amount of 100000, 900, and there
are other less important changes which
1t is unnecessary to specify"

ing candle. They were sometimes of
pewter with iron pins, sometimes Who'll
ly Of brass or iron. These candles were
placed in candle beams" the first
rude chandeliers of our ancestors. They
were crossed sticks of wood with strips
of metal in sockets on sliding stands,
holding a candle at each END. They
had hook for the snuffer to hand on.
Sometimes candle beam" held a
score of candles and the illumination
was brilliant compared to the one "tal-
low Dip" Sconces were much used and
called "prongs," or candle arms" and
an endless variety of candle sticks of
the most primitive and rudest make, to
shapes of classic elegance. Candle
sticks and snuffers were found in every
colonial house. The latter were called
by various names, the word snit being
the most curious. 1t is from the old
English word snyten, to blow out, and
was originally verb-to snite the
candle, or put it out. Snuffer-boats or
slices snuffer trays, and snuffer stands
were also used. Colonial lanterns or
"lanthornes" held one "tallow Dip"
giving a dim, uncertain light behind
the oiled paper-which was used as
window glass in the houses, and for
lanthornes-and yet as the colonial
farmer passed to and fro with his lam
thorne, the house mother with her
candlestick on the window sill, the
wayfarer saw the distant light and was
cheered by it's illumination. thinking
With grateful acknowledgment of the
radiance.

THE sAsY.s BOTTLE OF RUM.

The inflexibility of Russian Official
orders has resulted in many queer and
needless fixtures In the official system.
The story is well known OF the sentry
who was put on guard over a rose in
bloom in the imperial garden in the
seventeenth century. The rose and its
bush disappeared, but every day for
a hundred years a sentry mounted
guard over the spot, because no one
had ordered the service discontinued.
A story quite as ludicrous is now
told OF a discovery made by the En-
press Catharine, mother of the EN-
peror Paul, who was assassinated In
1901. Catharine, at one time, was in
spired by some passing within of econo-
my to scrutinize the imperial house,
keeping accounts. In them, among
other queer things, she found that
lone bottle of rum daily" was charged
to Naslednik, or heir apparent.
AS her son, who was then a youns
man, had never given any sign of in
temperate habits, the empress was
greatly astonished. Che went over the
accounts to see how long he had been
addicted to this practice, and found.
to her still greater surprise, that the
expenditure went back to the day Of
his birth-and indeed, far beyond 1t.
The heir to the throne had not only
been charged with drinking over thir.
ty dozen bottles of fine Jamaica rum
yearly ever since he was born, but fol
long time before that The empress,
1t is hardly necessary to say, made .
thorough investigation of this strange
matter, and with the aid Of an antigua
rian, she at last reached the original
entry.
century or so before, the imperial
physician had prescribed, for the Mas
lednik Of the period, "on account Of a
violent toothache, teaspoonful OF
rum, to be taken with sugar." This
dose was given for several days in sue
cession; and the nurse or steward in
charge had deemed 1t more fitting to
the imperial dignity, as well as more
profitable to himself or herself to pur.
chase new bottle of rum every day.
No one had ever given tic order 70
discontinue this purchase. and 1t had
gone on for a century, the rum having
constituted one of the per1uisites OF
the court steward.
The empress submitted the discovery
to her husband, who at once declared
that the method of keeping accounts
should be thoroughly reformed, and
such ahiIsps ended He carried Out hif
