EQUITY?-WouId a court uphold a

thus enriched himself2
Would it be called fair if two rob-

should supply the stronger robber
with knives as quickly as he could?
Perhaps the good man would say:
81 am willing to furnish Bill with
knives the same as John. l am in

so fixed thatI cannot get the goods

Thousand of young lives are being

answer the bitter tears shed within the

BURY ST. EDMUNDS FORTIFIED
English City Has Long Figured as One
of the Most Important of the
Island Centers.

Germany will find no difficulty in
describing Bury st. Edmunds as a
fortified place. It's name gives it
away. Bury st. Edmunds was
known of old as st. Edmunds Bury
the castle or "strong town" Of that
king of East Anglia who was put to
death by the Danes in $50; and so
became a saint. The six pious priests
who decided to perpetuate his men,
DRY were the unconscious founders of
town and an abbey that afterward
became the greatest ecclesiastical es-
Enlistment in all England, except

delightfully."- situated, with a small
river flowing on the eastern part, or
a monastery more illustrious, wheth-
er we consider its wealth, its extent,
or its incompatible magnifcence"
You might indeed say that the
monastery itself is a town, so many
gates there are, so many towers, and
a church than which none can be
more magnificent; and subservient to
which are three others, also splendid
ly adorned with admirable workman

SAW A NEGLECTED. SPECIES
Little Robbie Pointed Out One 1hin1
Which Certainly the Fly
Couldn't Do.

In the opinion Of some persons, the
new teacher was going almost too far
in her attention to nature study.
However, the children appeared to
enjoy it all, and so far no parents
had made open objections to the
little talks on birds, insects and flow
ers with which the teacher diversified
the routine Of school work. So all
went along quite comfortably until
the afternoon when the fly and the
flea were up for consideration, says
the Youths Companion.
Following the teachers lead, the
children had all grown enthusiastic
over the astonishing acrobatic abili-
ties of the fly-all except Robbie
May, who for some time had been
staring modify at his desk, casting
only occasional glances at the teach
er, and those Enthusiastically sullen.
1t became so noticeable, by the
time they were all admiring the fact
that the fly can walk on the ceiling,
that the teacher paused and turned
to the boy.
"What is the trouble, Robbie ?"
she inquired. "Aren't you listeningF
Aren't you interested in the talk ?"
''Ye-es," granted Robbie, reluc-

PENSION GOES WITH CROSS
Most Highly Priced Decoration Of the
British Army Also Carries
Financial Reward.

In the original instrument, drawn
up in 1856, when the Victoria cross
was instituted, Rule II declares:
at is ordained that every warrant
officer, petty officer, seaman or ma
rine or noncommissioned officer or
soldier who shall have received the
cross shall from the date of the act
by which the decoration has been
gained, be entitled to a special pen
sion of 910 a year, and each addi-
tional bar conferred under Rule A
on such warrant or petty officers OF
noncommissioned officers or men
shall carry with it an additional pen
sion of f5 per annum."
The Rule 4 referred to provides
that when a man who holds the Vic
toria cross performs another act Of
bravery that would have entitled him
to the cross if he did not hold it,
he shall have a bar. Apparently the
number of bars he may win is un-
limited.
In 1898 an alteration was agreed
to in regard to the rule about Victo-
ria cross pensions.
'Tn July, 1898, it was decided
that, at the secretary of states dis
cretion, a sum Of ESQ year may be
granted by way of pension in lieu Of
the e10 which has accompanied the
V. c. since its institution"
This is a difference only in amount
"A very welcome difference in some
cases no doubt. 1t does not extend
the scope of the grant, for only such
men may get the ESQ year as were
before entitled to the f10, seeing
that the ESQ is Gin lieu of the f10,'

Polishing and Renoxatlnu.

When the furniture begins to lose
its original appearance Of freshness,
it should be renovated, A standard
polish calls for raw linseed oil, tur-
pentine and vinegar, well shaken; but
while this is really a good polish,
there is danger of allowing too much
of it to remain on the surface of the
furniture. Remember that the office
of renovator is simply to remove
dirt and grease and not to give it a
new surface. Hence, when you rub
with a renovator, follow it with an
other rag and wipe of thoroughly.
