were situated along the Middlesex
bank of the Thames, a ad eplendld
barges manned iy oarsmen In livery
were constantly coming and going between
them,
"The city companies," aays the London
Times, "all bad. their state bargee
and liveried watermen. Great river
pageants wore numerous. High placed
criminals traveled down to their death
* on the ebbing tide. Ambassadors and
other envoy* of foreign powers were
met a i Gravesend by the lord mayor
and his aldermen and taken by river
in a stately progress to Tower stairs.
The regular route westward was by
river to Putney, thence by road across
Putney heath.
"That way went Wolsey when deprived
of the great seal, traveling
from York Hduse to Eseher In disgrace.
until he fell In with the king's
messenger on the heath and knew he
was his master's man once more. In a
mier age iae entry into London or
Catharine of Braganza. the consort of
Charles II.. was a memorable example
of the river pageant.
"In old days the city roads were
markets rather than thoroughfares, so
that even If anybody wished to go
from one part of the city lo another
he went by river, for the roads were
quagmires in bad weather and at 411tlmes
haunted by highwaymen and
footpads, repj*. that type of the pa
triotk' permanent official, always used
the river. Such phrases as *by water
to Whitehall* and *so by water home
constantly occur In bis diary. "In
Qneen Anne's reign there were
40.000 watermen plying for hire'on the
Thames and over a hundred 'stairs.'
or landing places, in London proper.
These watermen were the 'cabbies' of
that age. The really curious thing la
that the Thames was still a main
thoroughfare less than a century aeo.
Not until 1857 did the lord mayor's
show proceed to Westminster- otherwise
than by water."

A lawyer happened to be acquainted
with a Jnror in a petty clTll case, end '
he met him during a recess of the'
court. The lawyer was Just "lighting I

he would hare offered the other a cigar
unhesitatingly, bnt It occurred to him
, that It might not look right.
"I suppose." he said guardedly, "that
a cigar would uot Influence your ver

The Juror was equally cautious,
s "A good one wouldn't." he replied, j
"but a poor one might prejudice me."
He got a good cigar.?Brooklyn Eagle.

The membrane lining the canal of the
ear contains a great number of little
glauds which secrete a waxy substance
having an Intensely bitter taste. The

removing with them any particle ef

may have found entrance to tbo ear.
