the reorganization OF the Boston gas

gas companies on a unique principle
The total capitalization OF the new
company was made the same as that
of the valuation of the securities of
the consolidated companies. The price
OF gas was set at 90 cents thousand
feet. On that basis the company was
allowed to pay seven per cent. on

Germany'S War Fund.

In the julius tower at Spandau, Ger
many, locked in old fashioned war
chests, has lain over S24,000,000 for
more than thirty years, q tribute from
France at the end of the FrancO-Prus-
sian war. 1t is what Is known as the
imperial military reserve fund and is
intended to defray the first expenses
of campaign and to be sent to the va
rious army headquarters for daily use
In case war should break out. In such
case 1t is calculated this money in the
julius tower would last the army un-
til regular treasury appropriation
could be made in due form. Spandau
is the seat of the last of Germany's
great inland forts. The julius tower
is in the center of the Spandau forti-
ficatiOns, and the fort is always well
garrisoned. The government main

When They Fined tho Servants.

There must have been servant
problem even In the specious times of
Elizabeth, If we may judge by list
of rules drawn up by baronet of that
era for the guidance of his domestic
helpers and recently brought to light
by an English writer. The baronet
evidently liked his house kept In order,
and If 1t were not made absolutely
spotless on Friday after dinner every
body responsible had to pay three
pence. He liked punctuality, and six
pence was the fine for meat that was
not ready at IL or before for dinner
and at 6 or before for supper, while
the table had to be laid half an hour
before those times, on pain of two
pence. Oaths were penny each, and
1t was equally expensive to leave a
door open which was found shut,
while to teach any of the children any
"unhonest speech" was fourpence.
The fines were duly paid each quarter
day out of the wages, and with fine
vagueness the baronet winds up,
"They shall be bestowed on the poor
or other godly use"

Owing to this the proper thing TO do
is to build stOrehOuse separate and

should be erected on level ground and
have Il good roof. with doors opening

Ocular Defects In Artists.

defects accounted for certain aptitudes
of well known artists.

with his glasses off. 1t sounds SEN
