Civil Pensions.

As the degree of efficiency In all the
departments is much lessened by the re-
tentlon of old employees who have out
lived their energy and usefulness 1t
is indispensable TO any proper system
of economy that provision be made so
that their separation from the service
shall be easy and inevitable. 1t is i'm
possible TO make such provision unless
there is adopted plan of civil pen
sions. We cannot In view of the adj
yancing prices of living. hope TO save
money by reduction In the standard
of salaries paid. Indeed. II any change
Is made in that regard an increase
rather than a decrease will be neces-
sary, and the only means of economy
viii be in reducing the number Of
employees and in obtaining a greater
average of efficiency from those re-
tanned in the service.
Frauds In the Collection Of Customs.
regret to refer TO the fact of the
discovery OF extensive frauds in the
collection of the customs revenue at

the subordinate employees in the
weighing and other departments were
directly concerned and In which the
benefciaries were the American Sugar
Refining company and others. The
frauds consisted in the payment Of du-

IL circle of young married women
have formed a little sewing circle 70
meet at each others houses during
Lent They win sew for the poor and
at the close Of tho afternoon gather
round the tea table
4 There Is but ont restriction to
these gatherings. The members have
sternly forbidden the, three DIS, and
conversation which touches on dress,
domestics or disease Is strictly Ia
booed.
To keep the matrons from straying
back into familiar conversational
paths. a fine Of ten cents for eacn Of
tense is imposed upon every one in.
dulging in those cuthralrng topics.
The proceeds Of The, flies are to DO
devoted to a charity yet to be voted
upon. At the first meeting It looked
as II they could en,:ow a hospital bed,
but at the next one fines had lessened
marvelously, nor had the members
turned deaf mutes.
TO relieve the strain, part Of tho
afternoon was devoted to reading
some interesting topic Of the day.
which was later discussed.
Similar VOWS against the three DIS
would be excellent Lenten discipline
for many women, either in clubs or
alone. To realize how large a part OF
daily conversation Is occupied by these
three topics one need only decide TO
cut them out.
