Old Age Pension.

Ireland, it seems, is to benefit
more largely than any other part of
the United Kingdom from the old
age pension bill. In the first place,
such a large proportion of the Irish
people live in the country that they
live longer than those in the towns.
And then it is held that it will be
much harder to prove that an Irish
mar or woman has not reached the
pensionable age of seventy than 1t
will in the case of the English,
Scotch and Welsh. The reason for
this is that, until a recent date, there
was no compulsory registration of
births in Ireland. The old, it is ar
gued, are very apt to exaggerate
their age in any case, and when five
shillings a week is the reward for
living to the age of seventy it is
thought that the friends and rela-
tives of applicants for pensions will
be found ready to iatter this inno-
cent form of vanity.

New York Wants Meat.

York people would eat meat If it

Tip then asked about people who
never eat meat, and Hans quickly
said: "These v~egetarians all look
sickly, and are most cranky. They
eat beans baked in pork grease, cab
bages cooked with corned beef,
spinach, rice, eggs and pies with
crust made out of hogs lard and beer
leaf. One talked me into it, and /
tried vegetables only for three days.

bread."-New York Press.
