Tossing the Pancake.

Thursday, In the great hall OF
Westminster school, the quaint
Shrovetide custom of tossing the
pancake among the scholars was OBJ
served, says a London paper. The
ceremony, which has been carried
out for over 100 years without a
break, appears to lose none of it's
interest as Shrovetids comes round,
and Thursdays proceedings were
watched by large number of ladies
and gentlemen. AT IL 80 the schol-
ars we're summoned to the sound Of
bell by the school sergeant from
the class-rooms into the hall, and
there they selected representative
from each form to scramble for the
pancake. The chosen boys having
been ranged beneath the bar over
which the pancake is annually toss
ed, the school cook, bearing in his
hand silver pan containing the ed
IDLE symbol of Shrovetide, entered
the room, preceded by the deans
verger, and at the order Of the head
master threw the pancake. A wild
scramble ensued between the select
ed boys to obtain possession of it.
After about FIVE minutes scrim-
mage, an upper form boy, Logan
emerged with the largest piece OF
the pancake in his hand, and was
thereupon awarded the guinea that
is annually presented to the sue
cessful scholar.

A New Dead Sea.

The new dead sea, discovered by
DR.. Seven Hedin, in Thibet, is de.
scribed as enormous in extent, but
so shallow that to navigate it one
must wade half mile to reach the
boat, and must draw the boat half a
mile before it can be foated with a
load. But the most remarkable
characteristic is the almost incredit.
able amount Of salt. Boats and
oars quickly become as white as
chalk; even the dress of the rowers
soon becomes whitened, while drops
of water sprinkled upon a dry sur
face leaves globules like candle
drippings.

Life by Time Table

Probably since the world bNea
there was never a period when nuun
wasted their time as little as ~
do now. Whether they use il wa2
or i'll. they at least do not let II -
away empty. Never was the fse
cination of work SO potent as at N
present moment, and never befots
were the same keeness and conesss
trstion displayed in the pursuit Of
distraction. Energy is the don,s
ant quality of the Anglo-Saxop
race, the quality they can not choose
but admire. Work is no longer -
garded as a necessary evil or even
wholly as a means to an end IL u
valued for its own sake. The rich
est men in America work as hard
as the poorest-or at least pretend
to do so--lest the society in which
they move should suppose them
men of leisure, supposition which
would be, we understand, againss
an American, whatever his positioo
in life.
The greater numhes Of men d
sire to be actively useful or actively
amused from morning TO night, and
this fever Of activity Is not confined
to one sex. The eagerness WIN
which the unmarried women of tho
middle and upper class embrsos
work in any shape or form 10 q
great sign of the times. 1t Is MOI
what Is called occupation but regv-
lar employment which they sesk,
and they will accept drudgery, and
even privation, rather than live 10
idleness, or content themselves with
the irregular work which falls nat
urally to their share in an ordinary
household. Those women for whom
the nature of their circumstances
or their brains make other employ.

Trying to Have Posters Taxed.

Joseph c. Pumpelly, president of
the City improvement Association,
in New York, is doing all that lies
in his power to so tax public posters
that they will not deface the land
'capes and disigure all the public
places OF the city and state as they
do at present He has been at Al
bany working for the passage of !
bill that proposes tax of 1 cent for
each two feet or fraction thereof
m the surface of every poster ex-
posed to public view. In his opin-
ion, a measure of this sort will
greatly mitigate this evil.

RECOGNITION OF ENGLISH.
The Language is Now Being Taught
 All Over Mexico.
Mexican Herald.

Mexican Herald
 The suppression of the study Of Latin in the preparatory school in this city and it's replacement by English is sign Of the times. It is believed by educators that, with four years given to English, the students, all young men destined for the professions, will acquire more than a mere superficial stock of words and phrases and will become acquainted in a fairly thorough manner with the domi- nant- world language of the present time the one speech which has gone around the world and is the common means of com munication in all the great ports of the world. and especially in the Far East.
 English Is now taught all over the re public, it's vital importance to the, young being everywhere recognized and never before in the educational history of Mex leo have so many private teachers of the language been employed in families. Pro- feS;ional men, even well advanced In nte may be found among learners, and in so- cieE- it is regarded as both necessary and an elegant accomplishment, fact which travellers, prone to air their opin- ions of Mexico and things Mexican, may well bear In mind. Their captious QHser- vationS are quite sure te be noted.
 But modern Mexico, ever practical, takes up English for its utility. Parents demand 1t with such degree of insistence that in some of the great private schools here. notably that of the Sacred Heart 1t has to a large degree displaced French
 
 But. as we have said, p2Sents insist on their children being taught English so as to use it conversationally, and not mere ly for reading purposes.
 The step taken ny the department of public instruction in removing Latin from tke course of study will meet with criti- cism, especially from journals welded to the ancient ways. But We have no fear that in Mexico. where Spanish, the "eld- est daughter of the Latin" is the com mon tongue, there will ever be any lack of good Latin scholars. Studious men will not neglect the foundation tongue of the Romance languages. It will be culu- vated by those who need it and see its great value But. in practical life. Eng fish, half Teutonic and half Latin. will come to take the place of the language of the Romans among young people re quiring the means to make their way in the world of business and the professicNs. Young engineers lawyers and business men here all feel the great need of Eng
