ECR EY Bellefonte, Pa., July 16, 1909. -— Dress of the Patrolmen of Londen, Paris and Berlin. London patrolmen carry no clubs. Attached to the middle of the belt behind is a dark lantern. The cuffs of their coats have vertical stripes, blue and white, signifying rank and distinguished service. During the fre quent showers and rains they wear little waterproof capes. Their silent regulation of street traffic by hand signal is a realization of perfection. In Paris the ordinary patrolmen wear blue caps and ccats and in sum- mer white duck trousers. They carry short swords, rather as an emblem of authority, but in extreme danger use the flat side as a club. In a downpour of rain the Paris policeman hangs his cap on a hook in the back side of his belt and draws over his head the hood of a short blue cape of heavy cloth. This hooded cape is called a capuchin and in its longer form, reaching to the knees, is used by civilians as well 'n cold or rainy weather. Accordingly at such times the streets of Paris seem to be alive with cowled monks. The London plan for controlling vehicles is used on the Paris boulevards. policemen detailed for such duty wear white gloves and signal with white clubs. German policemen wear and have a distinctly martial air.— Travel Magazine. FOLLOWED HER LEAD. The Chinese Cook Knew Which Eggs Should Be Discarded. “Chinese need to be taught to be more self reliant,” said the woman who employs a Chinese cook. “Yester- day I ordered my cook to make a pud- ding for dinner, stopping a minute to see if he followed my instructions, for I had taught him to make this particu- lar pudding. He had seen me smell the eggs before putting them into a bowl, and he began by putting the first egg to bis nose. He seemed on the right road, so 1 left the kitchen for a minute. “Returning, I discovered that he had used five eggs instead of three, as I had taught him, Taking him to task for not following my instructions, he answered: ‘Yes; three here (pointing to the bowl), two here (indicating where he had thrown the others). Same as you.’ “It dawned on me that when I had taught him to make the pudding I had found the second and third eggs that 1 had broken to be bad and bad thrown both away. He had simply done what he had seen me do—after smelling the second and third egg he had thrown them away.”—New York Sun. A Nabch. “Rich as a nabob” is an expression not infrequently heard, but why a “na- bob" should thus be associated with wealth and who he was precisely is not so generally known, Under the great moguls the provinces of India were administered by deputies known by the designation of “nawab,” who commonly amassed much money and lived in great splendor. The office and the title continued under British rule in the orient, but gradually the word became corrupted into “nabob” and was applied generally to all natives who had grown rich. More latterly it was bestowed — often In a derisive sense—upon Europeans who, having made large fortunes in India, returned home and spent their money in a lux- urious and ostentatious way.—London Seraps. iceberg Designs. All the architecture of the world is represented in nature's iceberg de- signs. Sometimes a little berg will have the appearance of an Arab's white tent as it rides on a desert look- ing sea; another, its sharp outlines softened in the vaporous atmosphere, will appear like a domed mosque in green marble. A cluster of Chinese pa- godas comes drifting slowly down the current, followed by a stately Gothic cathedral, early style. Then comes a coliseum, and beyond a huge man-of- war floats down the current, its stem submerged, with foam grandly break- ing over it, the stern seventy-five feet aloft. Then and Now. The difference between the relations of parents to their children now and In the days before us is well illustrated by the story of the old general who was talking to a young lady whom he had taken in to supper. Before them on a plate was a chicken. “After all, general,” said the young lady, “there is nothing in the world like the liver wing of a chicken.” “Well,” he replied, “do you know I never tasted ome, for when 1 was young my parents ate it, and now my children do!"—Congregationalist. Straightening the Back. It is the custom in certain parts of Scotland among the woman laborers in the field, when their backs begin to ache from bending low while working with short handled hoes, to lie down, their faces upon the ground, and allow others to step upon the lower part of their backs with one foot several times. This operation is known as “straight ening the back.”—Chicago News. A Charitable World. “Your money must be a burden %o you at times.” “Yes,” answered Mr. Dustin Stax, “but you'd be surprised to see how many I find who are willing to bear other people's burdens.”—Washington Star. The | ; they can either walk or talk!” helmets FAMOUS BULLS. Gems From the House of Commons and From the Pulpit. | The house of commons, as might have been expected, has contributed a fair share to a very amusing collection of “bulls.” It was in one of the de-' bates of that body that the late Colo- | nel Saunderson described Eastern Rou mella as “man enough to take her stand” in defense of a certain threat- ened right. An Irish member of parliament once declared that of the outrages reported from Ireland three-quarters were ex- aggerated and half had no foundation in fact, a statistical computation that reminds one of another Irish member of parliament who declared excitedly to a group of fellow members, “I want to convince you that there Isn't any truth in half the lies they are telling about Ireland.” The biography of Dean Hook recalls a certain minor canon who used to preach at the cathedral when Hook was a boy at Winchester school. In one of his sermons there occurred the striking reflection that “what is impos- sible can never be and very seldom comes to pass.” Another discourse was long remem- bered for its pathetic lamentation on the degeneracy of the age: “O tempora! O mores! What times we live In! | Little boys and girls run about the’ streets cursing and swearing before But the Church of England has no monop- oly of these violent contrasts, for it was at a City Temple meeting not! many years ago that a speaker ex-| claimed: “I find my time is already ! gone. Therefore 1 will keep within it.”"—Windsor Magazine. POSED THE DEAD MAN.

They inject so much poison into you that you are dazed, your eyes roll and you stagger and speak thickly. In a word, you're drunk,” said a mis- sionary, “In the Nyassa country I'd always start getting ready for bed and the | mosquitoes an hour before sunset. I'd set up my mosquito net with the ut- most care. I'd clamp down its edges with valises and boxes. I'd light in- side it three green wood fires, filling it with a bitter smoke that all insects are supposed to loathe. “Finally I'd get in myself. I'd smoke big pipes of the black native to- bacco, and I'd long miserably in that hot, smoky atmosphere for the dawn. “Despite all my precautions quite 200 or 300 mosquitoes would get in- side my net as soon as darkness fell. They were like a whirlwind in there. It couldi’'t have been worse. Their noise and their nipping made me feverish—made me really delirious at times. “At last, in exhaustion, I'd get a few hours of troubled sleep, awakening for breakfast drunk from the poison injected by hundreds of tiny needles into my veins, “No; it isn't the elephants or the giraffes that trouble the African hunt- er, but the skeeters.”—New Orleans Times-Democrat, It is impossible to make your con- duct perfect, but it is easy to make it better than it has been. — Atchison Globe. — TRE Transparent Rhubarb.

An old Cingalese woman who lived in an ordinary native hut by herself died and was buried. On the follow- ing day a large iguana (a species of lizard which attains great size) entered the compound of a gentleman living close by and attacked his poultry. Hearing the noise and commotion, he came out and on ascertaining the cause got his gun and shot the iguana. No sooner had he done this than there arose a great uproar from the rela- tives of the old woman, who declared that he had killed her, because her spirit had passed into the lizard, in proof of which they pointed tri- umphantly to the fact that it had nev- er before been seen in the vicinity and only appeared after her death. Rupees finally appeased the outraged feelings of the -old woman's descendants. — Java Times. RHEE EEE EERE EEEEEs: The Elephant's Trunk. The long trunk of the elephant is very, very wonderful. The neck of four footed animals is usually long to enable them to reach their food with- out difficulty, but the elephant has a short neck to enable him more easily to support the weight of his huge head and heavy tusks. The long trunk helps him to get his food, and the trunk is to an elephant what a long neck is to other animals. — Chicago Journal. Denmark’s Old Age Pension.
