The publication of official figures to prove that London is drinking more reminds one how careful the authori- ties were in the past lest the Lon- doner should miss his full share of ale. In the sixteenth century, for Imn- stance, the brewer who ceased to prew was faced with the loss of his business. Thus, if the mayor got wind of “any of the saide brewers, or their frowarde and perverse myndes, shall at any time hereafter sodenly for peare and absteyne from bruying, whereby the king's subjects should be destitute or unprovided of drynke,” ne knew exactly what to do The city council was empowered to take over the business as a going concern, and to take measures to see that it was kept going. The cry then and for centuries after was all for beer. There is record of & petition of 1673, for instance, pray- ing that tea, coffee and brandy be panned. The petitioners reasoned that the laborers needed “good strong beer and ale,” which refreshed their bodies, and neither did them prejudice nor hindered their work. Besides, it cost little, and was the product of home- grown grain, whereas the new-fangled drink was expensive and destroyed his majesty’s subjects, “not agreeing with their constitution.” — London Chronicle. MUCH POWER IN SUGGESTION Extends to the Curing of Physical lile if One Will Persevere in Treatment. By the method known as “sugges- tion,” it is possible (according to a medical writer) not only to perform | the simple experiment of waking gone- self at a given hour in the morning, but also to banish all minor physical ailments and even to correct faults in the character. Just as in the first instance the ex- perimenter before going to sleep at night makes a mental request to him- self that he shall awake at a certain time on the following morning, so in more important matters he suggests to himself a condition of health or a method of conduct. To take two instances. Supposing you suffer from insomnia, you focus | HUMOR OF A CENTURY AGO Seems Not Always to Have Been ih Best of Taste, But This Is a Good Story. Toole’s was a brand of humor that went out with the pun and the prac | tical joke. The things the comedian | and his friends did off the stage, as & | matter of course and “to raise a laugh,” would today bring them within the clutches of the law on many occa sions. The pun was less devastating as a rule. Sims Reeves told the story in his reminiscences how he was playing the | part of Tom Tug in company with his friend Toole, who was also a mem: { ber of the cast. In “The Waterman,” he explains, a word or two of a gag was held to be permissible; and, part ly to amuse the audience, partly to astonish his fellow-actor, Reeves, in a | certain scene, in reply to Toole's | question, “What's the meaning of all | this?” replied, “The meaning of it is that you've been made a tool of, and I'm a happy fellow.” “Johnnie looked very much sur prised,” Reeves relates, ‘and as a pop ular comedian does not, if he can help it, allow himself to be scored off, he, after a moment's reflection—during | which he must have suffered the keen- {| est agony——replied, ‘So it sims’ | SEEK TO PRESERVE EAGLE King of Birds Does Much Damage, but Swiss Authorities Decide to Protect It.

So widely do the holes of badgers ramify that Col. ‘Alford Lucts, a Brit sh sportsman, had a force of eight men digging for ten days and finally abandoned the attempt to come up with the badgers. It is believed that badgers spring traps by rolling ower them on their back. The operation has been observed by many credible witnesses, to say nothing of the fre- quent discovery in traps of hairs from badgers’ backs. Among ‘their fa vorite foods is honey. At the London 700 one may often see a visitor with a pot of honey scraping out the sweet with a walking stick and then giving the end of the stick to badgers to suck. Formerly badger meat was prized in England, the hind quarters being made into hams, which, when cured, were said to be as good as the best bacon. Badger meat is an un- common article diet in England «ff present. Paid for His Interruption. Rodger, the great French tenor, was a sensitive soul, and was prone to take offense at any slight, whether inten- tional or not. On one occasion he was engaged to sing at the house of a wealthy finan- cier. Rodger sang his first song mag- nificently; but no one paid the slight- est attention to him, and the guests continued to talk their loudest. Presently the host thought the time had come for another song, and sent for Rodger. He could not be found. Next day there came a note from him, accompanied by 1500 francs. The note ran something like this: “I have the honor to return the twelve hundred francs which I re- celved for singing at your function: and I beg leave to add three hundred francs thereto for having so disturbed the conversation of your guests” Origin of Word “Strike.” The earliest use of the word “strike,” In the sense of stopping work, occurg in the London Chronicle for September, 1765, in connection with a coal strike. The publication reports a great suspension of labor in the Northumbrian coal fields, and the colliers are stated to have “struck out” for a higher bounty before enter ing info their usual yearly “bond.” The time-honored {llustration of profit less labor, “carrying coals to Newcas- tle,” appears to have received its first slap in the face during this strike. The Chronicle reports that “several pokes of coal were brought from Dur ham to Newcastle by one of the com- mon carriers, and sold on the sand- hills for 9d a poke, by which he cleared 6d a poke.” a ad Sale of Blooded Stock Mr. John G.
