There is a great war in the Old World,

having ruled the empire of half the
New World.

Where Mirrors Are Forbidden.

The followers of Jean de Labadie
still flourish In some parts Of Holland
The tenets of the Labadists forbid the
use of mirrors as tending to foster
vanity and a love of fine clothes. This
self denying ordinance is all the more
creditable. seeing that, next to the
founder, the leading figure among the
Labadists was woman. When Jean
dc Lahadie left the Reformed church
and founded sect of his own ortho-
doX hate made it impossible for him to
tend his flock Anna Maria van Schur-

Report Of the Librarian.

The circulation of books and maya

ton of books 60 per cent was fiction;
IA per cent non-fction; and 26 per cent
juvenile, of which 1.5 was non-fction.
For the last three months the juvenile
department has had nearly onethiid of
the entire circulation. The average
daily circulation has been rs. The fines
for the year have amounted to SOB. SO.
The numre r of patrons has been in
creased y 1913, making the entire num-
Der since the library was made free
1911.
The rea ling table has been supplied
with eighteen magazines, three of which
and "A daily paper were gifts. The cir
cuation of magazines has been very
satisfactory.
The number of books added since Feb
ruary lst, 1914, is 465. OF the number
50 were gifts, 80 replaced worn out
books and u were the volumes of mag
aZnes bound.
The number of books mended is 74S,
rebound So. The last accession number
is 1890.
Four of the seven district schools in
town have had branch libraries consist
ing of from 10 to Is books taken from
the library and retained several weeks
and then exchanged for others. The
teachers in the village schools have also
had the privilege of taking any number
of books for their work and keeping
them as long as desired.
There have been posted in the library
lists of books for the different grades
and also lists of interest to the general
readers. Maps showing the progress
of the war have also been posted as
we'll as pictures and brief items relat-
ing to matters of current interest.
The large increase In the number of
patrons since the library was made
free has been followed by the natural
effect on the books and very many
books should be replaced.

First Steps In English.

The police in Calcutta caught a ma
tive coming out of n shop early in the
morning and arrested him on suspicion
The man had on the previous evening
concealed himself inside the shop and
had employed the time until morning
in lifting himself with complete suit
of clothes. including white shirt, with
studs and links. a red tie, carefully put
on. black socks. pair of patent leath-
ers, watch and chain, handkerchief,
pocket knife, straw hat and cane. He
even went the length of writing his
name inside the hat. On being ar
raigned before a magistrate he gave
the queerest excuse imaginable. He
said that he wanted to learn English
and as a preliminary step, thought it
best to dress like an Englishman.

a large black bear can strike terrific

felled to the ground they usually bite
them about the head ana neck until
death ensues. They are remarkable for
the strength of their jaws and have
been known to bite through the skull
of a man. Many animals that can gen
