According to the annual report of the Government inspector of Workhouses in Lancashire, there is a gradual de- crease of pauper labor used in the sick wards of the unions. the number having decreased from 260 to 170 during the last ten years. There is no salary attached to the office of Prime Minister. The head of the Cabinet, however, usually under- takes another office. In the last five Governments the Prime Minister has also acted in the capacity of First Lord of the Treasury, deriving an income cf £5.000 from the latter office. The police are taking exception to the reticent of the license of the Bell inn at Exhall, in \Warwickshire, which has tern in existence over 300 years. At one period the premises did dual duty as public -house and school, and up to the middle of last century they were par- tially located In the parish churchyard. SPIDERS THAT CATCH BIRDS. larks are Frequently Caught in Their Webs. Far up in the mountains of Ceylon, there is a spider that spins a web Ilk) bright )ellowtsh silk, the central net of which is five feet in dameter, while the st,pporting lines, or guys, as they are called. measure sometimes len or Twelve' felt. The spider seldom bites or stings, tut should anyone try to catch him, bite he will, and, though not venomous, his jaws are as powerful as a bind's teak. The bodies of these spiders are v"ry handsomely decorated, being bright gold or scarlet underneath. while the tpper pert is covered with the most de- licate slate -colored fur. so strong are the webs that birds fhe rite of larks are frequently caught there- in. and even the small tut powerful scaly lirard falls a victim.

Eleven Natives Eaten by Herd of Hun- gry Animals in Africa. Word from Blantyre, British Central Africa, states that a herd of hungry lions attacked the town of Choruuro, British Central Arica, and not only killed eleven natives, but put the rest c•( the population to flight and demol- ished many of the huts. Between fif- teen and twenty lions made the raid at dusk. They first attacked two natives en the outskirts of the town. One of the natives escaped, and while the body of his companion was being torn to pieces he ran to the government build- ing. The watchman on duty refused to be- lieve his story, and while the frighten- ed native was protesting the lions sud- denly dashed into the main street. Three watchmen were struck down before they could reach their r rifle s, and the native who had previously escaped was likewise killed. A fourth watchman, who fled to an inner room, was pursued ty two of the brutes, and torn to pieces. A child was seized in front of one et the huts, and when the frantic mo- ther attempted to rescue it she was like- wise attacked and eaten. Three other natives were killed and eaten. The lions killed a large number it goals and other live stock, and arter- y ants roamed through the town, prowl- ing round some of the huts. in which ilio inmates had barricaded themseh'es. A large number of natives. who man- aged to escape from the town, got ii'h Weir canoes and paddled to the n ten(' of the River Shire. where hie/ spent the night.

THE USE OF THE LEECH THEIR MEDICINAL VIRTUE WAS ONCE HIGHLY !STEEMED. Some Druggists Stale That Application of Leeches Is Not to Be Re- commended. r , Leeches are mostly bought by people who have bad a blow or fall, causing a blue spot to appear where the blood has congested. They apply leeches to take out the blood from these spots. The best leeches are known as the Mediterranean leech and come from San Guiguela, Spain. They are about three inches long, with a soft smooth body tapering to each extremity, and are marked with from ninety to one hundred fine annulations; their backs are olive green with six rusty red long- itudinal stripes. The ends are termin- ated by suckers. DANGER IN THEIR USE. A peculiar medical law provides that a druggist must not apply a leech. He may sell them to persons, but only a doctor is allowed to apply it. One well- known druggist told The Star that he once applied a leech to an abrasion ,n u man's torchead, because a doctor could not be got as the hour was late. "After the leech had gorged itself and rulleel oft the mark left by the Rech bled so profusely that it took ale over four heturs lar stop it; and then the man's face was ten times worse with tite harks left by the aids 1 had to use." The favorite method employed to in- duce a leech to fasten itself to the hart whence the blood Ls to be drawn is to drop its tail first into a narrow bottle, and then invert the bottle over the spot where the leech is supposed to go to work. 1f it does not attach itself readily a little sweet oil rubbed on the spot will sometimes be effective. The leech near- ly always falls off after it has gorged itself. Some druggists put salt on a leech after it has been annlied to a person. aorta this makes them sick, and they emit all the blood. This practice is very dangerous, as the leech may have been applied to a person who was suffering from some infectious disease, and no matter how long atter it is applied the second time there is always a danger of blood poisoning. They are very excitable, and may be seen stretching their bodies along the glass side of the bottle or bowl in which they are kept. At limes you may see Them writhing excitedly through the water, after the tiny animalculac that constitute their diet. They are only , fairly good swimmers, but have extra- ordinary vigor. Leeches possess wonderful power In ; extending and contracting their bodies. One moment they are stretched out to! three inches, the next they are curled up in a tiny ball. THEY LEAVE A SCAB. Some druggists state that the applica- tion of leeches is not to be recommend- ed; the cure is almost as had as the dis- ease. The leech has three small, sharp, semi -circular t that radiate from a lrleeh u centre. They cut deep, and always leave a scar of the same shape as them- selves. On the common leech the mouth where the cutting teeth are found is at the anterior sucking disc. Just back of this, and on the upper side, are ten.. small black spots that serve for eyes. The usual quantity of blood drawn by an average leech averages from one drachm to half an ounce. 1t is digested very slowly. and after being gorged in this manner. the leech lies for several days before it regains its normal size and ap- pearance. Leeches are mostly imported from Hamburg, and are also cones -tell largely in Spain, France, Italy and Hungary. How to Cleanse the System.- i'arme- lee's Vegetable Pills are the result of scientific study of the effects of extracts or certain roots and herbs upon the digestive organs. Their use has de- monstrated in many instances that they regulate the action of the liver and kidneys. purify the blond. and carry off 6L morbid accumulations !nen the system. They are easy to take, and their action is mild and beneficial. NICKEL. COINS FIR N.iTIVFC. Tourists and others slaying in Bel- gium have probably noticed certain nickel coins with a hole drilled neatly through the centre. At first the stran- ger naturally thinks that the hole has been pierced by some industrious indi- vidual to pass Rhe lune or "to bring lurk," and he is dubium.: about accep- ting such a coin; but he soon finds that his notion is incorrect. in the first place. the hole is made in a workman• tike tnanner; it app. -nes to have teen cast with the coin. and not to have been drilled afterwards. The hole has rather spoilt the appearance of the effigy of King I.eopnld. hut no one is indignant, and the coins pass freely -for the tour- ieI finds that there are many about. Further. these nickel coins appear to ee .uemewhat larger than the malerdy of coins of the same value. These coins are for the C„ngo natives. to be warn as ornaments, it so required. But they are actual (scene, and intended le be used as such; Nit')• are made with a holge in anter tb acee,nrnodate the natives, who have no teethes worth troubling about. and consequently no pockets.
