Lambs For Spanish Children.

Directly after Lent is observed Gus
tom that is particularly interesting to
children. 1t is what may be termed the
sale of the lambs, for on Monday morn
ing after Easter the shepherds have
their lambs and goats on sale in all the
cities. The animals are kept in tempo
rary pens, and it is the rule for parents
to permit their children, of from to
10 years of age, to purchase pet lamb
or goat. After the animal is selected it
is taken to the home residence and Civ
en- the freedom of the courtyard and
quite often the greater part of the
house. 1t is every child's ambition to
train the pet so that it will at least fol-
low its owner like dog, and if a few
simple tricks are added to the lambs or
kids education the master or mistress
is proud indeed. Girls especially de-
light in these pets, and often the ami
mails are so bedecked with bows and rib
ions as almost to hide their bodies. The
sale of the lambs is very old custom,
and is supposed to have originated
through some form of the church. -

Theaters In New Zealand.

A New Zealand correspondent of the
Baltimore Sun writes:
"The first floor of their theaters is
fiat, supplied with plain, implanted
wooden benches, with open backs. The
balcony, the fashionable place, contains
only cheaply upholstered benches, and
is badly ventilated. Early door tickets
at 1919 cents extra are sold, admitting
the holder an hour before the regular
doors open, that he may obtain first
choice of the implanted benches. Five
minutes before the orchestra appears a
big bell, suspended in the theater, is
violently rung, making all but the dead
jump Then all knowing ones under
stand that order is wanted-the stranger
probably thinks it fire alarm bell.
every Saturday night in all New
Zealand towns the people crowd their
leading street. They walk chiefly in the
street in preference to the footpath.
The girls, women, men and boys, young
and old, promenade up and down the
one street, meet friends and stand in
groups in the street. An occasional
cart, cab or tram, driven at breakneck
speed in their midst, makes the people
scatter for moment, with many mar
row escapes Vehicles, trans, cycles,
ETC.. turn to the left instead Of to the
right. -

How Book Beer Got It's Name.

Macmillan of Bavaria, the first cleo
tor, consulted an English physician re-
garding his consort's sickness, who pre-
scribed for her some buckingham
Double (strong) Beer" After importing
some several times at great expense,
Macmillan decided to send his court
brewer to Buckingham to become ia
miliar with the production and manipu
lation of said unexcelled brew. Upon
the brew err S return to Munich the Buck
ingham beer (then abbreviated in name
to Buck, later Book, beer) was hence
forth brewed there and was for the first
time served at the electoral family's
table on Maximilian's day, Oct. 10.
1923.
At first only used as a medicinal po-
ton, it soon became generally intro
duced as pure food and was ordered to
be brewed hereafter two weeks before
the two weeks after Corpus Christi day.
