Prison Advantages.

The Rev. J. Powell, chaplain OF the
Suffolk CEng.) county gaol. who is
about TO retire, asserts that a prison
is not so depressing a place as many
imagine. and adds that he would rath-
or serve six months in prison than be
an inmate of a workhouse for "A sim
FLAIR period. A prisoner has his own
room and is not herded with many
others. Mr.. Powell relates that man
awaiting trial said to him: You
might ask the Judge to give me three
years. When I'm outside ! haven't
bed to sleep on but while I am here
! have my own private sitting room,
my butler to bring in my meals. my
doctor to see after me, and even my

gave a side glance at him She saw

But what was he thinking about so

looked up at him suddenly, with in
