: Parish REGISTERS.

I was once being shown round vii
lage church in the Eastern Counties,
and was solemnly informed by the
somewhat garrulous parish clerk that
the registers went back to the time Of
William the Conqueror, says J. F. Will
Hams in The Treasury. Lest the same
startling opinion may be held by 9TH
ers, let me hasten to say that parish
registers were unknown in England
before the end of Henry Wits reign,
and happy is that parish which still
possesses its Rcords even from that
date. For our earlier registers have
certainly had a very checkered career,
and when we read the story of the
treatment which has been meted out
to them during the three or four cen
turtles of their existence, we can only
wonder that they exist in such num-
bers as they do.

From saloon to saloon he passed.
Everything was wide open, and very
gay and lively. But as he looked on
at poker game that had no limit
the tenderfoot suddenly frowned. He
had seen the dealer slip himself four
aces from the bottom Of the pack.
Gracious powers, whispered the ten
derfoot, excitedly cutching the sleeve
of the man next to him, did you notice
