ART TREASURES NOT INSURED
For One Reason, No Amount Of Money
Could Replace Those in Brit
ish Storehouses.

The great national sterehouses Of
art treasures are not insured, writes q
correspondent Of the London Daily
Nail. No compensation would be
forthcoming in case Of fire or theft.
The reason Is that the premiums on
the millions Of pounds worth Of pic
lures In the National gallery, antiQui-
ties In the British museum, and exhib-
Its In the Victoria and Albert muse
um. for instance, would amount to a
very large sum.
If art galleries and museums in
sured they would have to pay out far
larger sums than they receive In ad-
mittaHce charges" said an official Of
the National Portrait gallery. "The
latest apparatus for preventing and
detecting fire is employed, and night
watchmen are present"
An official of the British museum
said: I'VE have very thorough sys-
TENS Of patrolling, and special firemen

The boys eyes had begun to shift I'M

wounded man, and still searching the

old Joel briefly told the story, when he
lay back on the ground and closed
his eyes.
Darkness fell. In each tower q
watcher kept his eyes strained toward
the black silent woods. The dying
man was laid on a rude bed within
one cabin, and old Joel lay on the
floor of 1t close to the door. The
stranger lad refused to sleep indoors
and huddled himself in q blanket on
the ground in one corner of the stock

to deep and weary sleep. An hour
later the boy In the corner threw
aside his blanket, and when a mo-
ment later, Lydia Noe, feverish and
thirsty, rose from her bed to get a
drink of water outside her door, she
stopped short on the threshold. The

filled the next doorway. He called out
with harsh oath, and again the boy
stopped With another oath and q
threatening gesture Joel motioned to
the corner of the stockade, and with
a flare of defiance in his black eyes
the lad stalked slowly and proudly
away. From behind him the voice of
the wounded man called, and old Joel
turned. There was CHASTITY smile on
the Firginian's pallid face.

DAMAGES for Grief.

Measuring human emotions in dol
lars and cents is the newest problem
confronting French juries as a result
Of a decision of the Paris courts of
appeals, promising to revolutionize
French procedure in damage cases.
Hitherto, for example, In the case of
a person killed in an accident the
survivor was allotted damages only
upon the basis of actual material loss,
such as the depreciation of the family
income, but henceforward juries will
be asked to grant a supplemental al
lowance covering grief and physical
wear and tear.
