There is In Germany what is known
as the German Pedigree Book" or
"Deutsches Geschlechterbuch." The
purpose Of the pedigree book, accord
ing to Berlin correspondent, is to
record the ancestry not Of mobiles,
but of bourgeois persons who can
prove that they are of genuine middle
class or working class ancestry and
have no noble blood In their veins.
The editor explains in his preface that,
while many German mobiles 'out Of
court and material considerations have
not kept their blood pure, there are
many good business class families
which have managed to do So" By
thus encouraging the proper pride of
such families the pedigree book Is do
ing much to eradicate the traditional
envy of the mobiles.

PoNeEEs HARD TO MATCH.
Because Each Piece 10 Made From
One Of of Raw Silk

Because Each Piece 10 Made From
One Lot of Raw Silk.
Pongee silk is the undyed silk of
silkworms fed on the leaves Of scrub
oak chiefly. though other trees are
used in some portions of the pongee
district. The silk is produced almost
exclusively In Shantung province and
portions Of north China Immediately
adjacent.
The real pongee cloth, made of this
uncolored specially produced silk, is
distinct from the pongees Of com
merce made in all colors from other
silk. Each piece of cloth is made
from a particular lot Of silk, and
therefore each piece varies from all
other pieces in exact quality. weight
and flneness and In a slight degree In
color and other qualities.
There are certain general grades Of
cloth, certain varieties of weave. GER
tain popular weights. etc.. but women
shopping in Chinese pongees find it
very difficult to match pieces. and on
the face of things 1t Is practically i'm
possible to furnish any great number
Of pieces Of certain weight, grade
and quality such as a modern clothing
manufacturing establishment would
require to standardize certain line of
garments from that particular cloth

UNDER law governing the subject of
delinquent debtors Judge Horner has
acted in way that should serve as
warning to all who may come within the
limit of the statute. The law provides
that debtors may be brought before the
court in an action to recover the amount
they owe for fuel, provisions, and other
items. This law was enacted to protect
merchants. The case before the court of
this county was that of young man who
seemed to glory In his Indebtedness in
stead of attempting to reduce it. 1t was
shown at the hearing that the debtor was
making good wages and could discharge
his obligations without inconveniencing
himself. The Judge, therefore, issued an
order that the debtor should pay certain
sum weekly until the bill was liquidated.
To this order the young man paid practi-
cally no attention and he was finally
brought before the court on contempt pro-
ceedings. Then he changed his attitude
and offered to settle, but the Judge felt
an example should be made of one who
deliberately set aside the directions of the
court. Consequently the young man was
sent to jail to consider his position and he
will also have to pay the bill. The law is
good one, and while it protects the mer-
chant it does not work hardship on the
other side. A case before the court within
a few weeks developed the fact that the
debtor had q hard time to secure the
necessaries of life, that he was not max
ing large wages and to put him In Jail
would be hardship without giving profit
able results. Where man Is able to pay,
but wilfully and insolently pays no at
tention to the requests for something that
is honest and legitimate, there is no reason
why clemency should be extended. And
when an order of the court having been
issued. the insolence or indifference is
continued, 1t sometimes takes harsh
measures to bring the offender to his
senses. The result In the case of the
young man who was in jail should
prove warning and lesson to others
who are possibly liable to get Into the
same nosition

There was recently had before the
Geological society of London a mathe-
NAUTICAL discussion of the differences in
the shape Of eggs. A few eggs, like
those of the owl and the tortoise, are
spherical. or nearly SO; few. like the
grebe's or the cormorant's, are clip
teal. with symmetrical ends; the great
majority, like the hens, are ovoid, or
blunter at one end than the other. The
hens egg is always laid blunt end fore
most. Eggs that are the most unsym-
metrical are also eggs Of large size
relatively to the parent bird. The
yolks Of eggs are spherical, whatever
the form Of the entire egg may be-

being inelosed In fluid. the white"

There was an absentminded bishop
in western Ontario, who was constant
ly finding himself In awkward situa-
tons, on account Of his extreme alb
straction. On a certain occasion he
was travelling from London in a north
erly direction and found when the
conductor approached him that he had
forgotten where he was to go. The
conductor suggested that he telegraph
from the next station and find out his
destination. 1t was before the days Of
long distance telephones, and the
bishop telegraphed to his wife from
the first station, Where was l 60
mgr to be answered at the following
station. The answer came, Exeter;
be sure to get of there" The bishop
then beamed at the anxious conductor
and remarked placidly: These little
difficulties always turn out satisfac-
torily."-Argonaut.

cording to the same authority, the in

out the essential oils that cause the
Odor. and the action Of the sunlight.

ON THE Fourth Of July q law will go
into effect which will abolish the use Of
common drinking cups" in all public
places. This means that 1t will not be
possible to get drink on train or in
station or waiting room unless an individ-
ual cup Is In possession or some means
are taken to provide such an article.
Already in many public places paper cups
are provided which may be secured by
the person wishing to quench his thirst
on the psymenfof cent. The new law
applies to public schools and provides a
penalty Of $40 for each offence. The State
Board of Health is to see that the law is
enforced. A peculiar incident connected
with this subject Is the flooding of the
mails with advertisements Of patent bub-
blers, drinking fountains and cups, and
one is led to the impression that the
manufacturers of these articles might
have had something to do with the pas
sage Of the law abolishing the cup. The
reasons for doing away with public drink
ing cups may be good. In cities and
towns where there is public water
supply the bubblers and fountains can be
used all right. but In the country where
wells must be relied upon entirely 1t will
be absolutely necessary to enforce the use
ofthe Individual cup. This may be made to
work all right, although confusion may
for awhile follow. by the losing of cups,
failure to bring them to school, borrowing
from fellow pupils, and SO on.
