Programmes of the Kingston pageant and clippings from the British Whig, Kingston, giving an account of the splendid scenes were, at the request of the Ottawa committee, sent to them to assist them in arranging their pageant.

That Ireland has two definitions of the meanest man, the man who "would steal the coppers from a dead man's eyes" (the coppers being | placed there to keep the lids down) and the man "who would steal the cross of an ass," it being a well known fact that the small donkeys have a black cross on their shoulders, said to mark them for the beast rid- den by Our Saviour.

In Your Dally Budget By Olive Roberts Barton. I love this story of a senator's wife. She told it herself at a Wash- ington luncheon. She had trouble keeping her ac- counts straight, and quite often had to call upon her husband to sweeten up her overdrawn checking account at the bank. "You really should keep an ex- pense book," said the senator finally one evening as he handed her her pass book balanced to date, the dis- crepancy filled, and ready for a fresh start. "I believe that if you would keep an account of everything you spend it would help you to keep your bank balance on tbe right side of the ledger. There's nothing like sys- tem." ' "But I do," sald his wife. keep a daily expense account. 80 and get it right now." The book was produced and the senator wiped his glasses and open- ed it. "Very good," he said.

"If it isn't a secret, Jane," sald he cautiously, "would you mind telling me just what G. O. K. means?" "Well--it means 'God Only Knows!' "said Jane desperately.
