German statisticfans with no great burden of serlous work on their shoul- ders have been calculating what part of a woman's life is spent in looking at herself In a mirror. She begins, as a fule, at six years. From six to ten she has a daily average of seven min- utes, From ten to fifteen she devotes a quarter of an hour to her glass. At twenty she certainly spends thirty, minutes dally admiring hersélf and when past twenty a whole hour. The statisticians are tactful enough not ta #ay when 2 woman begins to take less interest in her personal appearance, but women more than sixty years gid do not, they say, spend more than ten minutes daily at their mirrors.

Both the mutineers and the English saw that If the fire was not extinguished there would soon, be a most disastrous explosion. The sepoy batteries therefore poured in a deadly stream of round shot to prevent the English from putting out the flames, A young lleutenant, Delaforse, unmov- the concentrated fire of shot, threw himself under the blazing car- riage, tore away the burning wood with his hands and, throwing earth up- on the blazing brands, stified the fire before It could spread to the ammuni- tion.
