AN EARLY PURE FOOD LAW.
English Bakers Had to 30 Careful In
the Old Days,

English Bakers Had to 30 Careful In
the Old Days.
In the time of Edward l. Of England
innkeepers were not permitted to make
either bread or beer. The former they
were obliged by law to buy from the
baker and the latter from the brewer.
In Customs of Old England F. J.
Smell declares that If the law defended
what was considered the legitimate
claim Of the baker to a proper liveli-
hood 1t was equally solicitous for the
welfare Of his customers and was most
severe upon the baker who sold bread
deficient In weight or quality.
For the first Offense he was drawn
on hurdle through the principal
streets. which would be thronged with
people and foul with traffic, with the
offending loaf suspended from his neck
From pen and ink sketch Of this cere-
mony 1t appears that the unhappy
tradesman wore neither shoes nor
stockings and had his arms strapped
to his sides. 1t seems also that two
horses drew the hurdle, which suggests
that it ratified along at a pretty lively
pace.
For the second offense the baker en-
joyed another ride upon the hurdle and
then underwent an hours exposure in
the pillory. If he proved so incorrigi-
BILE as to commit the offense a third
time his oven was demolished and he

victor Hugo's opinion on the question
OF life beyond the grave was a remark

firmly convinced that he would meet

was equally sure that he had always

He believed that he would exist for
ever, 1nasmuch as he felt in his soul
thousands of hymns, dramas and po-

When the atheists would say to him,
THE proof that you will not exist in
the future is that you did not exist in
the past" Hugo would answer.
"Who told you l did not exist in the
past centuries? You will say that is
the legend of the ages. The poet has
written, Life is a fairy tale twice writ

times written. You do not believe In
the doctrine of surviving personalities
for the reason that you do not recollect
