The government de ficit from railroad operation during November will be approximately $64, 500.000, a low record for the year, ac cording to figures made public by ths bureau of railroad economics. Gross revenues for the month were estimated at close to $436,000,000. This figure is only slightly below the high mark of a year ago but the heavy expenses, due In part to the coal strike which also reduced the revenuea, left as net little of the operating revenues. The government's net loss, the bu- ! reau estimated, on the basis of Inter- j state commerce commission figures, has reached $548,000,000 in the 23 S months of railroad operation. The bu reau placed the loss for the 11 months ; of 1919 at more than $331,000,000. LAST TROOPS QUIT PARIS General Connor and Hla Party Leave France January 9. Paris.

Some Investigators have assert ed that its beginning was the wassail howl, belonging to festivities ante dating the Christian era, and that on the advent of Christianity the custom of wassailing assumed a religious as pect. The monks called the wassail bowl the "pocalum caritatls" (loving cup). The ceremony of drinking from one cup and passing It around was observed at the Jewish pascal supper and on other notable occasions. His Last Reason the Real One. 'There Is an editor down on Park Row who Is a professional "antl" a part of the eternal no among his friends. In any gathering he always takes the view that others oppose. As n result he is not extremely popular. Somebody asked him the other day what was the reason for his obsti nacy. "Well," he said, "anybody can be popular just by being agreeable. I like being unpopular, and besides I've got dyspepsia." New York Times. Lights and Lesser Lights. If you have ever crossed the ocean you know that one of the first glimpses you get of America is the flash of Thatcher's light,' off Cape Ann. It can be seen a very great distance. Jose phus, the historian, writes that there was an ancient lighthouse which could be seen forty-two miles. It was erect ed by Ptolemy Soter ln the island of Tharos, off the const of Alexandria, Egypt. Boston Post. Cassock Once Common Garment.

"Why, Georgie," cried his scandalized mother, "what do you mean?" "Five isn't many," per sisted Georgie ; "sister Mary has been engaged nine times 1" The Old Cry. It doesn't make any difference what happens, somebody is bound to arise t whisper that It is crooked. We over heard this man talking on a streetcar yesterday. There's nothing the human 'amily enjoys better than being sus picious of somebody or something. Detroit Free Press. Repose of the Ocean. Scientific investigations go to show that the roaring waves and the might iest billows of the ocean repose, not upon hard and troubled beds, but upon cushions of still water; that every where at the bottom of the d.- s the solid ribs of the earth are pro tected from the abrading action of Its currents. Japanese Wrestlers Train Sons. With most of the leading wrestlers of Japan wrestling is an occupation which has been handed down from fa ther to son for maiy generations. Though small, some of the Japanese wrestlers have proven more than a match for heavier European and Amer ican opponents. Are Bachelors FunnyT A bachelor may be legal, but there Is always something funny about him. In the case of an old maid, there Is al ways the possible excuse that her lover died, but if a man wanted to get married he wouldn't pay any attention to a thing like that. E. W. Howe's Monthly.
