Housebreakers are busy on an

in London. One by one they are van

Now the Bolt-in-Tun in Fleet street is
going completely. 1t got its curious
name from bolt" Gan arrow piercing

rebus, and on the oriel window look

been in Fleet street for five centuries
A grant of the property was made tc
the Carmelite Friars, who were settled
in Whitefriars near by, as early as
1443. When in 1888 the Carmelite
priory was surrendered to the king

Man wants but little here below,
Thus saith the ancient song;
There's one sad thing about it, though
He gets that little wrong.
And if he gets that little right,
He's such a pesky kind,
That, having nothing more in sight,
Destroys his peace of mind.
Man wants but little here below,
A little for a while;
For little shakedowns here and there
Make quite decent pile
Man wants but little here below
To satisfy his needs:
Alas, he often gets it where

Walter Bell, the historian of Fleet
street, says that the Bolt-in-Tun was
the last coaching inn in London to
send stage to compete on a regular
route with railway but when the
coaching era was over, it retained its
association with the travelling public.

King Henry VIII was the greatest
widower that ever lived. He was born
at Ammo Domino in the year 1866, He
had $40 wives besides children. The
first was beheaded and executed. The
second was revoked. She never smiled

1000 PACKAGES Per DAY
This Was Record of Local Express
Company in 1921.

Handling an average of approx
mately 1000 packages every working
day, on which the average charge was
about 81 each, is the record of the To-
peka office of the American Express
company during the year 1921, ac-
cording to E. E. Brayman, local man
ager.
While the volume of business the
past year was not quite as heavy as
that in 1920, the companys receipts
at this place will show an increase of
about 20 per cent over those of the
previous year due to an increase in
rates. Had it not been for the dry
weather during the fall, which result
ed in a falling off of milk and cream
shipments, Brayman believes that the
number of items handled would have
equaled that of last year.
By estimating the number handled
this week at 10000, the company dur
ing the year just closing, including
both incoming and outgoing ship
ments, handled a total of 562,477
packages at this place, against 595.736
last year, a decrease of 3,259 pack
ages. Only in April and August was
the volume of business greater than it
was the year before. August was the
banner month this year when the
company handled 53,474 packages.
The banner month in 1920 was July
when ST, 324 packages were handled.
According to Brayman, milk and
cream shipments make up approx
mately rs per cent of the compAny's
business at this point, and at times
run as high as 40 per cent, but this
year on account of the dry weather
which cut pastures short, this class of
business fell off greatly during the last
few months. Bread shipments from
Topeka bakeries are important, the
express company handling about 500
shipments of this kind each week
The average charge per package of
the business transacted here is about
81 against $3.50 the nation over. In
certain districts the average charge is
much higher. Oklahoma is a notable
example, where, on account of so
much oil drilling machinery shipped
by express, the charge will average 50,
it is said
