ODD CLAIMS FOR INSURANCE.
British Employers Are Liable For
When a few years ago British
employers became liable at law for
injuries suffered by employes in the
course of their work cartoonists
got busy depicting the hired girl
gleefully tumbling down stairs with
the tea.tray or the coal box, secure
in the prospect of a long rest and
no loss of wages. Householders, of
course, cover their risk by insur-
ing each employe against aceidents.
English courts, as a rule, place a
liberal construction on the word
accident, and accordingly on the
sks of the insurance companies
may be found many odd claims,
Here are a few :-
-A c,e.iy whieliing her tail caused
injury to tri, milkmaiTa. eyo.
A farmhand was ,stung by 81, bee.
A manservant sprained his leg
through stamping on a rat.
A coachman coming out of a sta.,
ble was struck on the face by his
master's boot, intended for a cat-
erwauling cat,
piece went down her throat.
A curate was scalded ihrough
stumbling while carrying a tea urn
at a parochial gathering.
A ,servant was priciced by a rus-
ty needle while sewing on a button.
on her employer's clothes,
It is somewhat difficult to imag-
ine that success could attend claims
like these:—
A servant received a shock
through seeing a large Teddy hear
when the room was only dimly
lighted
Another, servant fetching coal
.out of a collar 'collapsed from fright
ozused by the silent appearance of
tives in the servicei ordering them to dis-
pense with the
APPENDAGE OF DARKNESS.
In December there w.ere
cutting festivals in Canton, Hong
Kong, Amoy, and even in Manila,
where on Christmas Day over 1,-
000. Chinese underwent shearing.
In Singapore and other cities of
the Straits Settlements, down in
Batavia, throughout the cities of
Japan and Corea, the snip -snip of
the progressive shears has beee
sounding the knell of the old re-
gime.
In Shanghai the craze has been
deep-rooted. At one time 4,000

OTHERS, we owe it as a
duty to our husbands and
families to take good care of them.
We all want, of course, to have our
loved ones cheerful and comfortable.
Our doininant part.is to give them the very
best that we can make or bake. But sometimes
we are tempted to save a few pennies in food
and think that in so doing we are economising.
But is it so ? Is this the kind of economy that
is wise and profitable ? Is it doing our full
duty to our loved ones ?
We wouldn't think of buying
the lowest priced eggs in the
market just for the sake of
economy. We would feel that
because they were cheap they
would be good eggs to avoid.
The /ow price would give us

tempted to buy the second
best instead of the best because
of the few pennies difference
in price. We may think that
economy in flour is different
from economy in eggs. But
it isn't. The prhiciple is the
same. The difference in cost

utilie of the new chef, who receives
the inosleht sup of $10,000 per yeart
Is M. Cedaret.
It may be a'far cry frem a king's
kitchen to Westmin.ster Abbey, but
the man who has been imported
from France to sepervise the meals
of British royalty also is destined
to serve the Cortmation banquets
and to feed hundreds of kiug's
