Little do we know what a. day may bring forth. and indeed it may be well that we cannot peer into the future.

He has therefore through a fir 111 of Cohourg solicitors served The Times with a formal “notice before action“ that unless in its next issue it publishes a full retraction and exonerates him from any charge of adulterating milk. an action for libel will be brought. It. is understood on good authority that the proprietor of TheTimes has replied refusing to retract, and will defend any action that may be brought. The agitation for pure milk started by The Times was taken 11p by the Board of Health. The agitation has also snread from this source to Peterboro’ and other places.

Another old Roman village has been revealed by recent excavations at the Little Wellington wood. near the Berk- shire village of Watchfield. The foun- datlons and portions of the walls of dwellings and many pieces of pottery, jugs, bottles, bricks, nails, and other interesting objects have been found.

".\'.v. but I saw the bricks." replied the nahve. with perfect composure. A Sikh who had saved the life of the A'ncer then reigning had received per- mission to erect a shrine. One of the native prophets was invited to be pres- ert at the laying of the corner-stone of the building: but. being unable to ac- cept. he Sent four bricks. one for each c rner of the temple. and the message, “I will be with you in the spirit.” To make assurance doubly sure the prnz‘bet expiained that by the sound 0! the rushing of horses through the air the pegpie on the scene might time the arrival of himself and his disciples. It is a deplorable fact that the poor law establishments of London contain nearly 20,000 children. 0! these 7.805 are being educated and trained in dis- tric‘t or separate schools. 3.871 in cot- tage and other homes. 2.968 are in workhouses and inflrmaries, 1,748 are in institutions belonging to the mana- gers of the Metropolitan Asylums Board. 2,976 are in training and indus- trial homes. 180 are in institutions for the blind. deaf and dumb, epileptics. etc.. and 125 in hospitals and convales- cent homes for the sick.

Convincing Evidence. In the Afghan war of 1878 some Brit- ish forces under the late Sir Montagu Cregnry came upon the only Sikh tem- ple in Afghanistan and heard the Story at the laying of its corner-stone from a. member of the gallant warrior tribe. Although the large majority of the inmates of the London workhouses are Cid-age paupersâ€"the latest official re- turn. that for 1903. pu'ts them at 48.000 over sixty years of ageâ€"there is a con- Biderable sprinkling of the able-bodied. It is an unfortunate fact that these are on the increase. As many as 9.932 re- ceived relief laSt year. which was 984 more than the total for the previous year. and it is, indeed. the highest num- ber on record; while the ratio per 1.000 of the pOpulation (2.1) is not exceeded in any previous year. although It was equalled in the years 1894-96. The out- door relief lists contained 8.164 able- bodied. which was higher by 1.689 than the total for 1903-04. and greater than any previous number. the ratio per 1,000 inhabitants being 1.8. a rise of .4 on the preceding year. It is gratifying, however. to be able to state that this month the official returns record a decrease of pauperism compared with the corresponding per- N of 1904. The reduction began in the week ended Dec. 2. and it has con- tinued up to the 16th inst. the date of the last weekly return. There were then 127,072 persons in receipt of relief â€"77.622 in the workhouses, and 49,450 outside.

The highest point reached was in February. when the ratepayers were maintaining as many as 129,529 persons, of whom 77,365 were in the workhouses and 52,- In dealing with the question of the legal poor of London this Christmas we have to record the dismal tact that the numbers in receipt or pauper reiiet in “moot 80.0% People In Her Poor- houoosâ€"ZOflOO Children Branded With Name of Pauper.
