Hereditary chlIdIessness.

The proper bringing up Of children
was being vigorously and wisely dis.
cussed in a New York woman's club
at one Of its recent meetings, when
one Of the members remarked that
women who had no children were not
competent to talk on the subject al
though they always seemed to be the
most willing to do so.
"Oh. of course" said another mem.
Der, I'VE all admit that It is a great
misfortune to be childless, and that
parents who have never had children
are much to be pitied."

markable statement was drowned in a

member remarked that she had no.

PIRATES OF THE CANOES.
Benares River Police Capture -Four
Boats and Many Flaas.

NNNN NWN WNNy EiaHot
Some four years ago a section OF
river police, consisting entirely Of
fishermen, was formed at Benares,
says the Lahore Tribune, to maintain
law and order On the river.
In course Of time the men gained a
good deal Of information regarding
crimes Of piracy carried out by the
crews OF boats trading between Mir.
apur and Allahabad, and II was found
that these men visited the great wa.
terways Of Bengal solely for the pur.
pose Of piracy.
The result of much correspondence
and investigation on the part Of the
two governments was that, after some
captures had been effected by the Dac.
ca police, the Benares river police
were deputed to hunt down the pi.
rates who carried on their nefarlous
business on the Brahmaputra.
They succeeded in capturing four
large pirate boats. and took from them
a number Of flags, and the other day
these flags were duly presented to the
lieutenant governor Of the United
provinces.
