The Shabbos Goye or Sabbath Chris. tian Woman Is a Familiar Figure In the Jewish' Quarter, and the Cadger of Fag Ends Earns a Good Livelihood--Pub. Nurses Get Pen nies and Drinks. Btrolling up Cheetham Hill, the He. brew quarter of Manchester, one day, I saw an old friend, says a writer in London Ideas. As we stood at a corner telling the tale to each other, there us an cid and determined- ooking woman. My frierd, who is a Hebrew, saw my smile and said: "She is a good, hard-working crea. "You know her?" "Yes," he replied, smiling, "She is a 'Shabbos Goye'." Secing that the name was, in fact, Hebrew to me, he proceeded to ex. plain: " "Bhe is a shabbos goye, which is the name given to people who attend to the fires and lights of the poorer Hebrews, when the religious laws pre. vent them attending to such matters themselves. She is now on her round, and will earn a couple of shillings made up of small sums which she re. ceives for her work from such of my as cannot afford to keep a regu- ar Christian servant. The name 'Shabbos Goye' is roughly, Babbath Christian woman, and re are num- bers in the Hebrew quarter cf every ' large city. The work in itself is not hard, but the distance covered by a round of calls is a hard teak for such old folk as the one you just saw." I Jeft my friend, and flicking the ash from my cigar I was about to put it between my lips, when I thought-- being holiday--that I woyild give my- self a treat. I threw away. the end of the cigar, and, as I turned to enter a shop to buy another, 1 saw a man stoop and pick up two cigarette ends, and my discarded' butt. I looked to see what he would do. So, having lit one of my smokes, I stopped in front of him saying "Don't you think there might be danger in smoking such things?' He grinned at me as he said: "Lor', governor, I ain't oin' to smoke 'em, I've a better plan nor As he spoke he produc- ed a tin box from a great gulf-like pocket, and placed the ends he had Pickea up inside. As he opened the I saw that it was half full of all sorts and qualities of ends, from ci- garettes mostly, with now and again a few pompous-looking cigar ends. In short, I soon learned that tion was to pick up such things, shred them up into a fine shag, and sell the mixture to his more opulent neigh. bors in the lodging-house where he liv. ed. It kept him tramping from very early morning to late at night. Who can say that he did not earn his liv- ang! He did, and had a few puffs as well for his own use. As I passed along I saw that the bs. were doing' a roari trade. [ost of the roaring or squealing was done by the children left by their par. ents in charge of the pub. nurse. This profession came into existence when the law forbade children to be taken into the pubs. It is now a well-estab. lished calling, and the nurse will mind a baby or babies for "a penny and a | had swipe," the latter term being applied, to the drink which is handed out to wet the mouth of the dry nurse. Many pennies are picked up in the course of an evening. But it often happens that the nurse--no longer dry--is pick. ed up in the course of the night. A case of kindness being cruel, the swipes being responsible for the nurse' being swamped. It is a common sight to see, just as the curtain rises in any London hall or theatre, quite a number of young fellows rise from their seats and politely offer them t> somebody who just arrived. When I first noticed this unusual display of cours fesy on the pi of ordinary working lads, I felt shame for the men in the pit. But I soon discovered. that the young gentlemen of the gal had an oye to business, and had ei been paid for holding the shat, or Jamasd. payment on surre ing the place. They hed a little profit as well as a look at the show. About the meanest way to earn a living was revealed to me by a friend of mine who happens fo be on the police force. The "Nark," ""Stool-pig- eon," or "Grass," is one who, for sun- dry reasons, wishes to "keep in" with the force, and incidentally to keep out of their hands, He is usually one who knows what life at Government expense is like, and, knowing the pro. fession of thieving to its uttermost limits, is, meturally, well inted with ite members. This knowledge he turns to account when the chance of. fors, and many a highly sensational arrest has owed its ever being accom- plished to the useful hints giver hy the Nark. He is bated both by the thieves and the police; and to bear the suspicion of being a nark is about the lowest depth to which even a jailbird can fall. It is da too; my a nark has paid for his "oplitting' on a pal with his lile, and the very least they ever escape with, when once discovered at their vile we, is a hiding of such a nature as make the nark seek for honorable means of earning a living.

It has been pointed out with some that is occupa | ey Are Hired In Droves at Three Cents a Day. i Donkcys, dovkeys, donkeys -- and | still more donkeys--coming through | our garden gate. What was the mean- | ing of it? Grey donkeys, white dons keys, a few large donkeys, many small donkeys, any and every kind of don. key, possessing one altribute in com. mon--that of a lean and hngry look. Did 1 sv, one attribute?--no, there was another. They were all laden in the same way. Esch had what for a better word I will call panniers made of coarse sacking, cr string bags, con- taining a few stones. hs "What is the meaning of it? 1 asked my husband. I was newly "out from home, and hadn't become accus- tomed te Indian ways. Consequently things were constantly occurring which to the residents were quite or. dinary, but to me were most extra. ovina. ddenly walked in at Had a tiger suddenly w i the Te ate, or a leopard. I should not have been so surprised, though considerably alarmed. But then 1 knew tigers were found in India, and I didn't know that donkeys were in the habit of roving around in com- panies and battallions. Hence, my surprise at this sudden visitation of forty or fifty of them. At length appeared a 1 , lean, brawn figure--the man in charge. His garment consisted of a dirty loin 'cloth, 8 ragged waistcoat, and, as apology for a turban. a piece of rag twisted round his head. By dint of must gentle persuasion, aided by a stout stick, he managed to eject them from the garden. My husband told me the stones or "kankar"' were to be used for road- making. "But what a queer way of carrying |¢ e them," I said. "Why don't they get a | its cart and carry one big load, instead of so many small ones?" "Because it is cheaper, my dear." "Cheaper?" I said. '"Yes, cheaper." "All those donkeys?" | "Yes, a bullock cart (we don't use horses for carting purposes bere, yon know) would cost frur or five shilli per day, but these donkeys cost only three cents each a day, or if they are not required for the whole day but merely a few hours, they may be hired at the rate of one cent per journey per donkey." Thus we live and learn. | Smartly Done. A gentleman alighted trom a wells appointed brouz'iam at the door of a silveramith's shop in London recently, and purchased a considerable quantity of plate, in payment of which he ten- dered a ome-hundred-pound note and received a small balance. Hoe carried the plate away with him in the brougham, and shortly after- wards a policeman called at the shop. to say that he had heard of the pur. chase, and to inform the silversmith that the note tendered in payment was a bad one. ' He was glad to add, however, that the thief had been apprehended, and | requested him to attend at the police station at a certain hour in the alter | noon to identify the prisoner. He told the eilveramith that it would be necessary for him to give up the bad note to facilitate the prelim- inary inquiries, and this the latter did, obtaining a formal receipt. On going to the police station the unfortunate shopk found that he been hoaxed. The "gentleman" and the man" were both mem- bers of light-fingered fraternity, and the note was a good ome.

Modern sea charts were brought to England by Bartholomew Columbus to illustrate his brother's thewry of a western con. tinent. This was about the year 1489.

Gerard Mercator published an atlas of maps in 1585, but it is only within the last fifty years or so that we have bad really scientific charts of the earth's sur. face.

A "nose tax" was in the ninth cen. tury exacted by the Danes from the householders in Ireland. It was #0 called not because it was levied on noses, but from the fact that a failure to pay was punished by slitting the nose from tip to eyebrow. It was con. tinued during thirteen years, when the househc'u rs, objecting to this ireatment of their nasal ornaments, tose in rebellion, massacred all the Danes in Ireland and put an end to the nose slitting.
