Old Civil Service Examination.

Lady Dorothy Nevill in one Of her
books gave an amusing example Of the
style Of examination for posts in the
British civil service which prevailed
before the advent Of the competitive
system. The young candidate was ush-
cred into the room Of the old chief
clerk of the department, and this or
deal followed:
"Sit down, SIR" roared a voice Of
thunder Then after a painful pause:
Now, sir, attention. l 3harl examine
you in arithmetic"

NO, sir" Numbered out the tyrant
voice. Attention! How much are

Paraeyzed by the voice and sudden
question, the youth stared and then
gasped out quite seriously:

"Quite right, SIR" roared out the ex-
aminer. slapping him on the back.

HOTEL BURNED At
SPlRl1W00D LAKE
TOTAL LOSS OF THE Ia BRASCH
HOTEL AND MOST OF CON.
TENTS.

Sunday noon, about 1880 o'clock
fire was discovered in the LaBrasch
hotel at Spiritwood Lake. The fire
broke out in one of the bedrooms in
the upper floor over the kitchen, and
is supposed to have been set by chill
dren playing with matches. Two
small children were in the room at
the time, and one, a three-year-old
baby, was removed with some diff
Guilty and was considerably affected
by smoke. The child was sent to
Wimbledon as soon as possible to
be cared for.
Cottagers from all over the lake
fastened to the scene of the fire and
rendered what assistance they could
in the saving of property. It was at
once seen that the building was
doomed to total destruction and all
the furniture and belongings in the
eight bedrooms on the second floor
were lost. Part of the stock of gro
ceries, ETC., was removed in the
greatest haste and a good deal of it
was lost. Several visitors who were
spending Sunday lost their suit-cas-
es and some extra clothing that were
in the bedrooms on the second floor.
There was only $3.50 insurance on
the building and stock Mr.. La
Brasch had recently allowed some of
the insurance, which he generally
to lapse. He lost a large
quantity of butter and eggs that had
just been stored in the building and
figures that his financial loss will be
at least $500 outside of the in
surance. Everything was carried
out in the greatest confusion and
much of the stock was damaged.

mission to Install and conduct such
visual demonstrations Of the parcel

More particularly the county fair dis.
plays will give farmers an object les'
son In the working Of direct exchange
between country and city Of the less
bulky articles Of farm production.
Sample packing boxes and containers
such rs have proved satisfactory In
experiments conducted Jointly BY the
postOtfice department and the Office OF
the markets u the department Of az.
riculture are to be placed on view. Lit
erature describing in detail how best to
serve the necessities Of city consumers
will be distributed by postal employe ee.
who will conduct the exhibits.
An appropriation is not available to
meet the costs Of preparing and main.
taining postal displays Of the kind.

Many politicians Of our time
are In the habit Of laying It
down a. a self evident PROPOSE
