Tho ENGLISH Channel,

One of the most famous bits of water
In the world is the English channel,
which separates and yet unites the sis
ter countries Of England and France
and has been the scene of 30 much Of
their history. 1t extends on the Eng
llsh side from Lands End to Dover
and on the French side from the island
of Ushant to Calais. Its entrance from
the German ocean is the strait of Do
yer. twenty-one miles wide, while ut
the other extremity. where 1t joins the
Atlantic. 1t is 100 miles from shore to
shore. The greatest width midway Is
$50 miles. Owing to the strong current
setting in from the westward. the high
winds which frequently prevail and
the confguration Of the shores it has
roughness which has become proven
bal and few cross 1t without seasick-

tn. s.rx.n. Girl in Germany.

In most German households there II
no such thing as the strict division Of
lab u. insisted on here. Your cook will
be delighted to make blouse for you.
and your nurse will turn out In the
dining room. while your chambermuid
will take the child for nm airing II you
order 1t so. They are more human in
their relation to their employers. The
English servant fixes a gulf between
herself and the most democratic mis-
tress. The German brings her intimnte
Joys and sorrows to a coed herrschnft
and expects their sympathy.
When girl has bad luck and en-
cages with bad herrschaft she Is
worse Off than In England because she
is more in the power Of her employers
and of the police than she would be
here She has to have dienstbuch.
an official book In which her age and
personal appearance are registered. III
this book her employers write her
character. 1t Is under the control Of
the police and has to be shown to them
when she leaves and when she enters
situation. 1t is hardly necessary to
say that when girl does anything
seriously bad and her employers record
1t in the book the book gets lost"
Then the police Interfere and make II
extremely disa greeable for the girl.

Twenty per cent more for lifelong

questions put to her by some Of her
unusually bright pupils. One day just
after she had finished telling the chill
dren the story that Adam was the first
man God created quiet reigned In the
class room for several minutes. Sud
denly up jumped little Rosie and in a
piping voice said. "Oh. teacher. you for
got to tell u whether God created
Adam right away man or babyr'
Embarrassed Mrs. L. looked up to the
ceiling and then to the children for an
inspiration. Happily she quickly spied
Betty's little hand raised above the
others eager to answer the question.
Teacher, nm surprised my sister
Rosie should ask such a foolish ques-
ton. Why. God must have created
Adam right away big man, because
II God had created him baby he
would have had to have mother to
take care Of him."
