DAVIES NOT
AFTER TIE AGENCY

A rumor that T. H. Davies & Com
pany would act as agents for the Togo
Kisen Kaisha steamship company aft
er the first of the year is unfounded
as far as the firm knows.
Ernest H. Wodehouse, when asked
this morning for a confirmation or de-
NAL of the rumor said: THE, first news
about the firm of T. H. Davies & Com
pany taking over the agency is what
l just heard now AS far as l know
not single effort has been made to
secure the agency of the Japanese line.
81 would like very much to know
where such a report started, as there
is absolutely no truth in it and guess
/ would know something about it ii

vidocQ, the great French detective was born in Aras in 1775. He began life as a baker and early became the terror of his companions by his athletic frame and violent disposition. At the same time be was 8 notorious thief, and after many dtsgraceful adventures he enlisted in the army. In 1796 he re- turned to Paris with some money which, however. hs soon squandered Next be was sentenced at Lille to eight years hard labor for forgery, but re- peatedly escaped. and in 1908 he be. came connected with the Paris police as a detective. His previous career enabled him to render important serv ices, and he was appointed chief of the safety brigade, chiefly composed of re prieved convicts, which purged Paris of the many dangerous classes. In 1918 he received full pardon, and his connection with this service lasted un- til about 1s2S when he settled at St Mande as paper manufacturer. Soon after the revolution of 1890 he became I political detective. but with little saccess. In 1S4S he was again en. ;'oyed under the republican govern

Moroccan Red Tape.

Official correspondence in Morocco Is couched in very fowery and fam boyant style. It is interspersed with variety of meaningless adulatory phrases that tend to confound the real meaning of the epistle. For example an order to the minister of finance to contract loan begins thus:
 "1n our present letter God increase bis power and make the glorious sun and his moon glitter in the Armament of his felicity we have authorized our incorruptible servant (here follows name) to contract in the name and on the behoof of the treasury (heaven fill it) loan of -,," etc.
 Considering that the "incorruptible servant" Is filching as much as he pos sible can from the treasury 1t is cer tainly necessary to pray that "heaven f1ll it."-London Graphic.

The Donkey on the Stage.

'It'p curious" said . theatrical ma1- aeer who had experienced many ups and downs, "how the stage develops jealousies. I once had show on the road in which it was necessary to make use of horse and a donkey We got the animals well trained for their parts, and on the opening night they gave a first class performance On the following night, however. we were unable to get the donkey to move out of the wings. Prince, the horse, went on without any trouble whatever, but Jack-rhat was the name of the donkey-could neither be coaxed nor driven out before the footlights. We finally had to go on with the perform ance with the donkey left out. After the show was over we got together and tried to find out what had been the matter Nobody could offer an ex- planation until one of the stage hands happened to pick up program. which showed that Princes name was print ed in the same kind of type we used for Jack. We go, new lot of pro- grams the next day with the donkey's name printed in type which was near. ly twice as big as that which we used for the horse. After that we never had the slightest trouble."-Chicago Record Herald.

Secret Society Among sese Islandera

Secret Society Among sese IslanderA
 The Sese islanders have attained peculiar notoriety in Uganda because of secret society called the Bachichj. which is not a burial society, although it's members take a deep and intelu- gent interest in all deaths and burials in their midst. In the more retired vil- lages. although greatly discouraged by the British authorities, 1t is said to be still the custom for the sorrowing rel. atives to bear the body of the deceased wrapped in bark on rough bier to some forest thicket, desolate ravine or other unfrequented spot, where it ls left unburied by the bearers, who nev. CT revisit the place again. The Bachi- chi, who are denizens of neighborine village. and distant relatives of the deceased avoid the necessity of burial or cremation and show their respect for the deceased by simply eating him.

Fourteenth Century Doctors.

synge's Social Life in England" quotes number of fourteenth century hints to success for physicians:
 Suppose you know nothing, say there ,s an obstruction of the liver. Perhaps the patient will say. "Nay, master. 1t Is my head or legs that trouble me" Repeat that 1t comes from the liver, and especially use the word "obstruc. tion," for patients do not understand 1t, which is important.
 Never dine with patient who has not paid you. It will be cheaper to get your dinner at an inn, for such feasts are usually deducted from the surgeons fee.
 When you are treating a wound or accident. the friends of the patient should be excluded, for they may faint and cause a disturbance, but some times higher fee may be got from persons present fainting and breaking their heads against wood and the Ike than from the principal patient.
