It contained a provision in these words : "For the purposes of this Act (the Faotories Act) a Chinaman shall be deemed to be a girl under eighteen years of age."---M.A.P. wend | Dr. Morse's indian Root Pills owe their singular effectiveness in curing Rheumatism, Lumbago and Sciatica to their power of stimulating and strengthening the kidneys.

Finger-Print Lore. The study of finger prints is becom- ling quite a fashionable one, and is {bring taken up with enthusiasm by young ladies. The following are stat ed to be established "axioms" of the cult. A man with white spots on his nails is unquestionably very fond of ladies' society; but, alas, is very fickle lin his attachments. A proud man is {invariably told by well-rounded finger nails, while swransparent nails, suffus- led with light red, denote a cheeriul, Joule, and loving disposition. But {ladies must particularly beware of the {man who bites his nails till a large portion of the skin is uncovered, for {such a one weuld prove a perfect Othello for a husband. A man with {long and pointed nails: betokens 'that {the owner is either a player on the {guitar, a budding Chancellor of the | Exchequer, a fashionable tailor, or an {ambitious attorney; while anyone hav. ing the nail of his left thumb all streaked--as though it had been stain. ed with snuff--is sure to turn out to {be a schoolmaster.

"Do you know," began the barber as he laid the lather a crime and not be detected through the Bertillon system or whatever it is that pinches people by their thumb prints?" The victim moved uneasily in his chair, but circumstances over which he had no control sealed his lips. He grunted interrogatively and politely. "Yes, sir; the reason is simple. We ain't got no thumb prints. We get 'em sll worn off rubbing our thumbs over you fellers' chins. Fact! I'll show you when 1 let you out of the chair. My thumbs are pretty near as ironed out lcoking as your face will be when I finish with you." - A Royal Criticism. The lite Duke of DevBnshire, who was very careful in everything, once entertained King Edward VII. at a the talk of London.

Since then he has shot an immense variety of big game in many countries. Sir Henry, it may be mentioned, is no lover of Zoos. To kill an animal "clean" is not reprehensible. But to ondemn a grizzly to solitary confine. ment for life in a small cage is, be ielares, an extreme form of refined and civilised cruclty. "The saddest s'ght of the kind that 1 know in Lon- don is to watch the grizzly, his claws worn to the quick, resilessly pacing behind ten feet of iron bars; or to see the Golden Eagle, whose natura! home is space, sifting in a cage, a lump of solitary misery. The eagl: should be killed and stuffed. For the grizzly half an acre of well-fenced ground, piled with rocks' and some trees, might faintly justify captivity, but not a ten foot den." Sir Henry once claimed that he had discovered the Garden of Eden. He was von-hunting at the time, and one day in thé course of his wanderings stuinbled upon a paleclithic instru. ment.

A Silent Duke. : The Duke of Devonshire, like his | forbears, has the reputation of being i & man of action and few wards. The !Cavendishes, indeed, have always been noted for their tacitarnity, as au old anecdote testifies. Two members of the family, generations since, when traveling to their home in the north, stayed for the night, inw a roofs in which were three beds. Before get. ting into bed each in turn drew aside the curtains of the odd bed, peeped in, and retired without comment. Next day, when they had ridden far from the inn, the one asked: "Did you see what was in that bed last night?" To which the other replied, laconically, "Yes." They had both seen a corpse in the third bed! Wages are not high in India. A na tive switchman on a railway and the native servant in a private family re. ceive 7 rupees, or about $1.90 a month.
