ROYAL TREATMENT OF RIVAL
LOVERS

NJ. Audreoli, Russian writer who
was eziled some years ago to Siberia,
is now contributing to the ''Reyne
Moderne," under the title of 'Souv
enirs to Siberia" his recollections not
only of SHERMAN, but also of Russian
Lie. In the last number of the Revue
he tells story, the end of which be-
longs to the present reign, the begin
ming to the reign of Panl, Of whose
period it is most strikingly character
este.
The Emperors fayorite at that time
was a young French actress, of whom
he was madly jealous. One evening,
Mt D ball, he noticed that a young mail
named Labanof, was paying her Il
great deal of attention. He did not
lose his temper, but at the end Of the
ball gave orders that Labanoff shonld
be arrested and thrown into the eta
del. He only intended to keep him
there few days, "to make him more
serious" after which he proposed to
reprimand him and appoint him to an
office which had been solicited for
him. Labanoff, however, was forgot
ten. At the death of Nicholas, Alex
ander Ii, then full of magnimity, lib
Grated all the prisoners in the citadel
without exception. In vaulted tomh
in which it was impossible to stand mp
right, and which was not more tive
yards long, an old man was found, al
most bent double, and incapable Of
answering when he was spoken to.
This was Labanoff. The Emperor
PauI had been succeeded by the En-
paror Alexandria [, afterward by the
Emperor Nicholas he had been III dun
geon more than fifty years. When h.
was taken out he could not bear the
light, and by strange phenomenon,
his movements har become automatic.
He could hardly held himself up and

forward without turning round, aS
though he had struck against a wall,
and taking two steps backward, as on

How POPULAR PAPERS ARE MADE. -
DIR. McCosh, President of the College
of New Jersey, in his great work EMIT
led, Typical Forms and Special Ends
in Creation, shows, incidentally, that
he fully understands how popular
periodicals are made. On page 526 he
writes
In their literary tastes, men like
firstvery easy and transparent narratives
in prose, and songs with the simplest
cadences then more elaborate prose
and more adorned poetry and finally,
perhaps, Il style, to use the language of

VERY GOOD ADVICE.

A rascal recently stole some silver
plate from gentleman living in Terr;,
Haute, Indiana, and having gotten com
fortabIy out OF the way, addressed his
victim in q letter in which he volunteers
some very good advice. which lie wound
up in the following words
FINALLY, allow me respectfully to
suggest to you that in future you will
content yourself with cheap spoons, and
spend your surplus cash i'll the cause OF
humanity.
When Satan rooukes SIM" it does
not make MS think more highly of Sa-
tan, yet, after all, the sin ought to be
rebuked and though we may question
tho good intentions which prompted
the admonition, yet peradventure, we
might do q sensible thing if we would
profit by it, The thief was no less q
thief, because he stole rich mans su-
perfiuities, nor did he lessen his rascal
ity an iota, because he moralzed over
the affair, and he com mended the prac-
lice of some christian virtues yet, af-
ter all, these superhuities may have
been bad investmt nts, and the sugges-
ton with which the letter closed. if
accepted for its truth, and not rejected
on account of its source, might have
been bad investments, aud the sugges-
ton with which the letter closed, if ac-
cepted for it's truth, and not reipc ed on
account of its source, might have made
the loser better if not richer man.
Safe investments are objects with ca
pitalists They have an eye open to
the profits, and yet, like prudent men,
as they usually are, they have the other
eye open to security. They are ever on
the lookout for rascality. Thieves will
"break through and steal, and when II
man CAN be sure that his venture is safe
from the reach of knavery, he sleeps
the sounder. Baxter somewhere says,
.'Inever knew how it was, but always
seemed to have the most to come in
when [ gave the most away y
Even if we do not secnre an imme-
date return, when we "spend our sur
plus cash in the cause of humanity" we
may be sure of one thing, the Invest
ment is safe, and of all orr riches, that
part alone which we have TINS invested,
will remain when the bold r0bber,
death, strips ms Of our possessions, and
hurrics us out into eternity as poor as
was Lazarus who lay at the rich mans
gates. Our houses and lands. our splen
did furniture or costly spoons, whether
we bought or stole them, must be left
behind, bnt the tear, dried up with a
dollar given the suffering, or the pnngI
Of hunger relieved by loaf of bread
that cost us dime, may reach us i'll
that better land, and afford relief we
may as earnestly crave as did the rich
man drop of water with which to cool
his tongue. Texas Advocate.
