Toblas Smollett wrote his “Humphrey Clinker” in 1771, the last year of his life, giving therein a spirited account of the society and customs then pre- vailing in London town. He exposed the iniquities practiced by the purvey- ors of provisions at that time. Oysters were “bloated” and “‘floated” then as | now; veal was whitened by repeated bleedings of the live animal; greens were boiled with brass half pence to ilmprore the coler: the wine in com- mon use was a “pernicious sophistica- tion. balderdashed with cider, corn spirit and the juice of sloes,” and oth- er revelations not suited to repetition in this polite age indicated that al- most every article of diet was prof- itably “treated" before it reached the ultimate consumer. That *‘bleached” flour is no new commodity was also shown, while Smollett’s added com- ment furnishes excellent food for re- flection: “The bread 1 eat in London is a deleterious paste, mixed up with chalk, alum and bone ashes, insipid to the taste and destructive to the constitu- [flou‘ The good people are not ig- | norant of this adulteration, but they prefer it to wholesdme bread because it is whiter than the meal of corn.”— Washington Post. Fires and Insurance. The agent of a well known insur- ance company stood on the fringe of the crowd watching the firemen retir- ing from the scene of a small blaze in an uptown flathouse. “I'll do business tomorrow morn- ing,” said he grimly, “and most of it will be with women who have ‘forgot- ten' their insurance bas run out. There's nothing like a blaze on the block to set thoughts in the direction of insurance. Last week a woman was waiting for me when 1 opened my office. Her husband bad given her. money to take out insurance weeks before, and she had spent it for a new hat. The night before a fire had broken out on the second flat above theirs, and, believe me, that woman must have suffered tortures until the fate of the house was settled. She ‘pald the premium in small change, which I believe she took from a child’s bank, rather than confess her neglect to her husband.”—New York World. The Poor. We all love the poor.

But there are two kinds of poor—the individual poor and the collective poor. It Is not the individual poor that we love; it is the collective poor. It is not the poor that we know und see, but the poor that we do not know and have neither time nor inclination to look at. We are afraid if we see them we shall cease to love them. We nevér say, “God bless the iceman, or the coal heaver, or the motormman.” For them we find our execrations for not contributing to our comfort just so and 80 and so. It is with great fervor, however, that we can say, “God bless the poor,” be- cause the poor do not interfere with our comfort to the slightest degree.— Life. Fielding at Ligbcn. Lisbon contains the grave of Henry Fielding. It was on Oct. 4, 1754, that Flelding died in the Portuguese cap- ital, and it was in 1830 that his tomb was erected in the English cemetery. And Flelding didn’t like Lisbon. *“As the houses. counvents. churches, ete., are large,” he wrote, “and all built with white stone, they look beautiful at a distance, but as you approach nearer and find them to want every kind of ornament all idea of beauty vanishes at once.” At that time a voyage to Lisbon was an undertaking not lightly to be contemplated.

It arose from a di versity of the observance of Saturday. The Milanese made it a feast. the Ro mans a fast. St. Ambrose. being ask ed what should be done in such a ease, replied: *‘In matters of little con sequence it is better to be guided by the general usage. When I am at Milan 1 do not fast on Saturday, but when I am at Rome I do as they do in Rome."” Shot at Shakespeare. “Shakespeare was a swart man,” said Si Simlin. "but there was times when he didn’t hit it right.” “For instance?" “That remark about ‘rather bear the ills we have than fly to others that we know not of.’ If that was the case there wouldn't be no hoss trades.”— ‘Washington Star.
