Having Jeased: the bufldings and equipment of the railroad and contract- ed to do all its repair work, the new service company has offered employ- ment to all the Erie shop men, each man to continue f§ his old posjton and receive the same yay as before.

The success of the plan will be watch- ed with interest by railroads ali over the country, but it is to be expected that a sharp fight by the labor unions will be made to offset it. A BRITISH TARIFF A wide departure from established British principle and practice was taken last weck by the passage of a tariff bill, designed as a protective measute. Denounced by Mr. Asguith, former prime minister, as “a half-hearted at- tempt to introduce a tariff without call- ing it one,” the bill passed the house of commons on a third reading by a vote of 176 to 4. It includeg only a few. ar- ticles, which it subjects to duties, which In this country would almost be considered for revenue omniy, and It is nnderstood that it will be temporary in operation. What will strike Amerfeans In the bill which called “the safe-guarding of Industri bi ig its extreme modéra- tion.

This was probably not the ease. The bill is directly aimed at Germany. Apparently we are in for a war of tariffs, which some than goods could be very greatly to be regretter, From the British point of view “the safe-guard- dnstried’ bill s sufficiently ntionary. Tt looks as though In pro- portion as armaments are reduced tariff walls will be raised.

It doesn’t seem possible at alll When Maria walked into the room I shook hands and said. ‘My dear, I hope your grandmother isn't ill and can't come down to see me herself—and she had to tell me who she was, and even then I wouldn't believe it at first. “It was a cold day and I had on proper things up to my neck underneath and do¥n to my ankles, and why Maria Pet- finger didn’t come down With spneumonia that pight puzzles me! When I saw her slippers I just couldn't help saying, ‘Maria, don’t you ever try going down the ellar stairs in those shoes at your age! With those awful French heels.” “Maria was actually peeved. “What did I mean, anyhow, by ‘age? She. felt as young as she had ever felt, and then I interrupted her. “I told Marfa that when you got to be 65 there wasn't a bit of use in trying to deceive yourself with that sort of rea- soning, because your old bones just creaked and groaned anyhow if you tried to frisk, and, besides, Mo grandmother ought to.frisk. “Maria sort of recovered herself and smiled at me. If she had laughed right out she would have cracked thg enamel on her face. She d that real progres- sive women took grandmotherhood as a/ mere incident and that at any gathering I'd be surprised to see the beautiful young women who had grandchildren. Why, to hear her talk you might have thought that grandchildren were some- o your twenties! She said nobody stopped to inquire a woman's vears nowadays, that you were judged entirely by your appearance and that was why she had taken such pains to keep herself up. “I agreed that there must have been pains connected with the process because it was easy to See what a lot of trouble Maria had gone to. She said she had a { permanent wave some time ago and that it is such a comfort because it eaves so much time getting dressed—but I'm sure three-quarters of her hair is false and goes on With two Rhairpins, at that. “Her figure beat me—I can’t deseribe it to you.

And I felt downright sorry for her ir spite of all her fool- ishness. “So I asked her to come down to Parkville and visit me and see all the old friends.

ODD iNCIDENTS HISTORY IN AMERICAN HOW ENGLAND RECEIVED CORN WALLIS’ SURRENDER It was a bitter pill to the English pride when the announcements began to creep into the English papers that affairs were not going well with the country's arms in toeir conflict to retain possession of their colony across the sea. ‘The report of the surrender of Corn- wallis did not reach Ensland until near- ly two weeks after its occurence. On Sunay evening, October 25, some eager watchers for the latest intelligence hang- ing about the neighborhood of tre Ad- miralty office might -have noticed on officer wearing the uniform of the British navy hastily entering that’place. It was Capt. Melcombe, commafder of his Maj- esty’s sloop, the Rattlesnake, who was bearing messages from Admiral Graves. The news Me bore was carefully con- cealed and it was not watil late in the afternoon of the following day that the people of England were to hear of the terrible disaster. Even Lord North was not apprised of the surrender until Mons day morning, when &e reached his of- fice in Downing street. The first to announce to him the news of the direful disaster was Lord George Germain, kis, warm supporter in all meas- ures to subdue the rebellious Americans. in company with Dords Walsingham and Stormont he drove to Downing street told the dismal tale. And bhow did he take it?" some one inquired afterwards of his Lordship. “/ he would have taken a ball in his brea replied Sir George, “for he opened his arms, exclaiming wildly, as he paced up and down the apartment “Oh God ! It is all over!” words which he repeated many times under emotions of deépest agitation and distress.” A message was at once sent to Kew, where the King was at that time, to ac-| quaint him with the melancholy termina- ion of Lord Clrnwallis’ expedition. The London Chronicle of Tuesday, November 27, prefaced its account of the surrender of Cornwallis by sa “We are sorry to communicate to ou readers the fol- lowing athentic particulars of the dis- astros catastrophe of the gallant Lord Comwallis and his army. Yesterday the captain of the Rattlesnake arrived with the disagreeable news of Cornwallis’ sur- render in Virginia and underwent an ex- amination relative to the above import- ant affair previous to the council held on that oceasion.” The same paper contained a fierce attack on Sir Henry Clinton, in which the editor declared that everyone must see that the melancholy capture of the zallant Cornwallis and tie brave troops under his command had risen from an unaccountable neglect in suffering Wash- ington quietly to march by him down to Trenton without making the ledst attempt to attack him or do any one thing to precent &ois march. Never, sure, was a naticn so ill served by its commanders. On the same day the King went in his usual state to the House of Peers and opened both houses of Parlament with his usual speech from the throfe, and referred with sadness to the mis- fortune to his arms in Virginia. When the King retired there Was an exciting scene in both houses of Parliament and a discussion followed as to the method of continuing the war that lasted until 10 o'cloe kthat nigat. To the criticism against the ministry, Lord North replied by affirming that the war wih America had been unfortunate but not unjust. The speech of the Prime indignation of Mr. Burke, who declared that if there could be a greater misfortune than those which the country had suffered In the disgrace- ful contest, the goyernment was now car- rying on, it was .hearing men rise up' the great assembly cf the natlon to vin- dicate such measures. \ Notwithstanding the mortifid pride of George TT1 and the unfailing determina- tion of Lord Germain that he would never vote for the cessation of the war, if there was to be a recognmition of Am- erican independence, the end of the con- flict was near at hand. For a few weeks Parliament was the scene of most excit- ing debates, amd the public press by re- ports which from time to time were pub- lished, kept up the ‘excitement. In the London Chronigles of ‘January 9, 1782, was printed a proclamation by the King for a general fast to be observ- ed throughout the country Febrnary 8, to confess the national sins and to im. plire the Divine blessing upon the pros- ecution of the war in America. Fopular opinion in England, however, was opposed to the cintinuing of the war, ahd atter many delays a rteaty of peace in wiich there was a full recognition of the ndependence of the United States was signed at Paris on January 20 1783, limit” to fortunes That might be de- sirable in a few exceptional instances, but most of us are convinded that our fortunes are already bankers and businees men Who make up consistent with the _af Jivine, - the news of which reached this country in the 23rd of the following March.

Humor is one of the most important things in life, and most persons have it in some degree or other. Those who haven't escape some handicaps to the efficiency of their efforts, but om the whole they lose more than they gain, for with the ability to appreciate the humer of a situation there generally goes the ability to maintain one's balance judi- cially. How often would we e led into the most ridiculous blunders, from which we would suffer not only embarrassment but also loss of respect, if we did net have a sense of humor to hold us hack! But what is more tragic than the mating of two persons whose capabilities to appreciate wit and Rumor vary greatly in degree. The witty one is condemned to ihe loneliness of laughing without sympathy, and the serious one is never able to understand the apparent vagaries and little conceits of the other. Many marriages have broken over just this rock of difficulty. All persons, however, are not outward- ly humorous. The faint smile of one may mean more than hearty laughter in an- other (and you must remember that laughter sometimes only indicates that a person “feels good”). How, then, can you gauge humor? * 5 By the upper, outer angle of the fore- head. Look at a person full in the face. Notice where the front of the forehead curves back to the side f the head above the temples, Is this curve a marked one? If so, the sense of humor is mormal or more. But is there a flattened space there? If so, the person you're looking at is more than likely one who can't sée a joke. But these are the exceptions. The vast majority of people have a good bump of wit. Tomorrow: Wide Heads. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR New and Old Fashioned Manners. Mr, Editor: What has become of the| boys and girls when in replying to their elders would say, “No. ma’am,” and “Yes, ma'am”? Was it the spinster school teachers who started the fad of teaching their pupils to say “Yes, Miss So -and Se,” 0, Miss So and So,” or rather # .” or “Yes, Miss Jones"? Does this not seund more monotonous than to give the more respectful reply that our George Washington and other generals were taught when in re- plying to their elders. the terms “Yes"” and “No, ma'am”? It is nothing very unusual to hear children on the street: reply in terms of “Yep” or “Nope. These children are scholars of the public schools and their parents before them. In these schools all children are supposed to be taught good manners and to give their teachers respectful answers. So if these teachers feel a whole lot younger in hav- ing the “Ma'am” dropped, that is their business, but I know it does not have the same effect upon us older ones to recelye the replies of “No” or “Yes” drawled out to us, usually in a very quick manner. Give me the boys and girls, big and little, who still retain the beautiful habit of saying “Yes, ma'am” ar@ ‘No, ma'am.” F. 8. | Stories That Recall Gthers l No Uncommon Name U. 8.
