No ill-clad and neglected-looking lads with their boxes and brushes ou their back'- bahnt the railway stations and streets corners with their "Shine, sir." Well lighted rooms are frequent at tho street corners, in which are com fortable' arm-chairs, illustrated and daily papers, with an adjoining room from which hot toddies can bo fur nished to those customers who feel that tippling will increase their com fort.

The newspapers re port that some time since a little girl of Abrahamio descent was arraigned before a police court on the charge of] habitually absenting herself from school on Saturday. When her case was under consideration her father appeared to plead in her defence, and stated that as Saturday was the Jew ish Sabbath he and his family attend ed divine service on that day. This, however, had no weight with- the dijji pensor of justice, who pronounced the girl guilty of ayi^tion ofLtho;9o^f1 ^"Isory 'aicT^o!'4' Massachusetts, jtna ] sentenced her lg undergo an imprison ment of three months in a reforma tory. If this is progress, it is progress backward, and in the direction of.the blue laws and dark ages. mm i t? ? Miss'Kate Field says in a recent Londau letter to tho Louisville Cour ier Journal: "There are even grounds for believing that church and drama may one day embrace. An Ameri can clergyman told me lately that he was sure he'd be an actor in the other world he loved the stage so passionate ly, notwithstanding that he had never dared to be seen in a theatre until he came to Europe. Sir Charles Young, recently appointed one of the inter national copyright commissioners, combines the occupation of novelist, dramatist and secretary to tho Eng lish Church Union, relieving the lat ter by amateur acting. I expect to live to see the day when clergmen will bo writing dramatic criticisms for the daily papers, and advising their con gregations what plays to fee and what plays to.avoid. Then, I think, there be an end to.opera bouffe.r Ajnen." The Pope has been, 'building in Rome at his own expense a number of house's- for tho poor. ?

They aro well ventilated and full of light; there are bells, and the whole construction is solid. The repi of these lodgings is from twelve to twenty francos a month, according to tho number of rooms. Tho rent is paid by tho month, and without any demand of deposit in advance or as security.
