OFFICIAL INsoLENCE.
Public Servants Should Be CIVIL
So Should the Public.

From Lippincotts.
The Scot who boarded British warship
and sent word to It's captain that one
of the owners" wished to see him assert
ed a fact which few of US have the oack-
bone to stand up to; that the humoie
masses own the earth by right OF having
paid for it with their more or less hard
earned money. II would seem as II we'
the proprietors Of the ever-glorious repuo-
lie, are especially meek in regarding our
hired men," from the President down,
as our masters rather than our paid
servants. We allow ourselves to be brow
beaten by public and quasi-public ofiicials
to an extent that amazes the foreigner.

From the London Chronicle.

ipal coat-of-arms. is as typical of the
past history of BlackpOol as of its pres
ent enterprise in holding an aviation

Blackpool was no more than the grea,

time of the Cromwellian survey in 1850
recorded aSsecond only in size to Winder-
mere lake. The draining Of the district
gave Blackpool firm land, so that the
few cabins on its edge had increased to
a population of 500 people hundred
years ago. Then II began to grow, became

Paris Ratcatchers.

from Inc LonuOp CnrOnlcie. ...
Since the abolition Of the post OF royal

rung N the hierarchy Of ratcatchers has
been filled by NJ. Henri Dayve. Official
ratcatcher to the municipality OF Paris
since 1851. When interviewed last year
this functionary stated that his nightly
bag In the Paris sewers now averaged
from twenty-five to thirty rats; whereas
in the the days before the Introduction of
new-fangled sewerage methods he and
his wife had caught as many as two
hundred in an evening. NJ. Dayve catches
his game with his hands. not with traps.

London Street Numbers.
From the London Chronicle.


London numbers have always been a
puzzle TO the man who walks up a
strange street and seeks an unknown

council does not propose to reach the ideal

ST. Paurs Is the center. that all numbers
start thence. and that wherever you walk,
north. south. east or west, number one
IS at the nearest point to St. Paurs. It
looks simple-even when II Is added that
odd and even numbers are on opposite
sides OF the street. But imagine yourself
in such commonplace thoroughfare as
Chancery lane-to take an instance of the
twisty. curly streets OF London. Which
end Of IL Is nearer st. Paul's.
You cannot number London that way,
for not one man In a thousand knows the
point OF the compass for which he Is
making. However, st. Paurs Is q better
