Old Clder Glasses. One of the latest of the rages of ardent collectors is for old cider glasses, especially those engraved with an apple tree or wreath of ap- motto “No Excise,” in protest against the excise duties on cider and other liquors, which caused such a revolt among farmers in 1768. Old coaching glasses are also in- | teresting and rare, says the Gentle | woman. They were so called because | when a coach stopped to change horses in olden days at an inn these | glasses were brought to the passenger | by an attendant, and the contents had | to be taken at once—in a draught as | a rule—for they had no feet, and so | were called “No Heel Taps,” and could not be laid down until the liquor had been consumed. Perhaps quaintest of all specimens of old glass are sets of egg cups in Waterford, both uncommon and very valuable. am le me Want Toll Reduced At a recent meeting of the Lan- caster Automobile Club it was de cided to make an effort to have the toll across the river bridge at Co- lumbia, reduced.

Herds are kept in com- pounds, and the highest respect is paid to the animals. In olden times the shogun gave the people such a strict order to protect the sacred animals that if anyone happened to hurt or kill them he was put to death on the spot. It was a period of terror. Even at the present day the deer are so tame and abundant in the shrine grounds that they, in fine weather, stroll round to the streets by twos and threes and surround passers-by, asking for food, and sometimes holding thelr sleeves in their mouths in an affection- ate manner. | Once a year some of the deer are caught by means of a net with a han- dle by several tamers (in service of the Kasuga Shrine Office) and taken to an enclosure, where their splendid horns are cut off with a saw, while a crowd of spectators watch the work with breathless interest (admission ten sen, equal to about 3 cents). This done, some of the sacred horns are, as a custom, awarded to the spectators by means of lottery. Imagination. An obsolete form of power, at one time used in making countries, religion and literature, but now superseded by the higher psychology. In times imagination was employeq by ~hildren in playing games, 2 in the making of mud pies ou"0f mud and real soldiers out of ¥ood. It is the father of many whom dedd" = oroes, among be mentiones muon Arthur, may the Giant Killer, King Caliban, Robinson Crusoe and Santa Claus. It is still discovered in the extremely young. At one time, when man was crude, imagination was thought to be serviceable. The notion, however, along with mythology and other follies, has long since been ex- ploded, the greatest efficiency having been demonstrated to lie along the lines of least resistance, which in- cludes among other things, playground supervision, department store tactics, child labor, white slavery and curren cy reform.—Life, ane, School Boys Badly Used. arly in the last century many boys at Eton, England, had to undergo a rough training. An old Etonian wha left the school in 1834 describes his experiences there as “worse than that of many inmates of a workhouse or gaol. To get up at five on freezing winter mornings; to sweep their own floors and make their own beds; to go two-by-two to the pump for a scanty wash; to eat no mouthful of food until 9 a. m.; to live on an end less round of mutton, potatoes and beer, none of them too plentiful or too good; to sleep in a dismal cell with out chair or table.
