A throng of farmers and townspeople had gathered in the inarket place before the monastery of Notre Dame. The business of the day was over and the peopis looked About for some amusement. It was at this lucky moment (hat Jean, a poor, half-starved young Jongleur (mountebank), chanced to come fnto sight, plodding along the dusty road, The crowd hailed him with cries of joy, and bade him perform for them his reper- tolre of tricks, Jean bowed to the statue of the Virgin above the monastery door} then turned to the task of amusing the people. But his juggling tricks were old and he went through them awkwardly, His feet were heavy with weakness; #0 ho danced badly. The crowd made fun of him. If he was to earn a few pence to buy food for his empty stomach he must do better. They called on him for @ drinking song. He did not want to sing it; but hunger forced him to, Firat asking pardon of the Virgin for what he was about to do, he raised his sweet young voice in “The Hallelujah of Wine.” The prior of Notre Dame, spandalized at such a song, rushed out of the monastery and drove the crowd away. Then, turning on Jean, he rebuked the boy and threatened him with damnation for leading so loose « Jean faitered that he had meant no harm, and begged forgiveness. ‘The prior, touched by the jad’s repentance, suggested that Jean become a monk. Jean replied that he valued youth and liberty too highly to enter a monastery, But just then Donte Raton to The Kvening | For Bngland and the Continent and World forthe United Btates All Countries 1n, the International Postal Union, and Canada, RR | One Pear... 80 | One Month $9.75 e Year, Month 85 “NO. 17,262. | VGLUME 49 JAPAN'S ATONEMENT LAWS. | APAN is in advance of the United States in its treatment of for-| mer convicts.

It takes a man who is more or less bad, locks him up; @vhile, makes him worse and then turns him loose again to commit another crime and to be locked up again. The stigma of the con- vict keeps him from ordinary employment. The police arrest him when they feel like it and for what they please. His honest ambi- tion and self-respect are destroyed. He keeps on following the circle of crime. It was Assumption morning.
