The most curloua form, or, rather, eipresnloD, of grace after meat which I have ever come across was that cus tomary at Clifford's Inn, one of the vanished Inns of chancery.' The soci ety consisted of two distinct bodlett, the principal and rules and the Kent ish mass, each body having Its own ta ble. At the conclusion of the dinner the chairman of tbe Kentish mess, flrst bowing to the principal of tbe Inn, took from the hands of the servitor some small rolls or loaves of bread and, without saying a word, dashed them several times on tbe table, after which they were taken away. Solemn silence relieved only by tbe thumps prevailed during this curious substi tute for a verbal grace. Cor. London Chronicle. TEA ; t U S imports but little more in 1904 than in 1864.

Tbe scheme of defense takes cog nizance of the topography of the country, the possible lines of inva sion, the feanible landing points on ths coatt and every element of ad vantage the enemy possesses in such entcrprUe, and the counter-phases ol the situation that cover the protection of the forts and entree to the country; nothing being left unknown and plat ted that shall be of service in such an emergency.
