Capital and Labor-How to
Reconcile Them.
BY PRoF. J. D. BUTLER.

When Father Falstaff sent his page to
Master Dumbleton for a satin cloak, and
otierd his bond and Bardolpu S for pay
ment, the answer was that the tailor
liked not the security The Knight
called Dumbleton rascally knave TO
stand upon security, and cried, L would
as lief they would put :atsbane in my
mouth as stop it with security" He who
goes borrowing, goes Il sorrowing
Not only Shylocks, but most capitalists
are deaf to borrowers, because they, as
well as Falstatf' S tailor, like not the Sc
curity." Capitalists will not lend IA poor
man money. They demand security.
As he cannot endorse others will not en-
dorse for him lie has no lands no chat
tells, on which he can give a mortgage.

Your insurance worthless, or you may alb

est prospects I'VE like not your secJri-
Y" Il is a castle in the air
Again, capitalists shun putting their
investments into the hands OF any poor
stranger They are distrustful of his
honesty where there is a chance for fraud :;
of his competence, where skillis demand
ed of his zeal, where he has no interest
at stake; and OF his vigilance, where
there are temptations to negligence. He
might carve out his fortune, put no one
will trust him with the tools.
But must capital and labor needs be

talists can be just to themselves, and yet
generous to borrowers? Yes they can.

The Shah of Persia and His Jewels.

The Shah Of Persia and His Jewels.
Among the many. notables whose
presence is expected at the opening of
the Vienna exhibition, not theleast in
teresting to Europeans VIII be the shah
of Persia commonly known as Nusser-
ed-Deen, but whose. real name, on the
authority of Mr. Eastwick, is. Nasiru'd d
div Kajar. To most persons eastern
personages and affairs are enveloped in
a sort of traditional haziness, not with
out a certain charm. The present shah
is about A years of age, well educated,
speaks Arabic, Persian, French and
English with ease, and is endeavoring
to bring his kingdom into sympathy
with the states system of Europe. He
left Teheran, few days since, was con-
veyed across the Caspian by a Russian
escort, has by this time landed in Russia,
and will proceed by train to st Peters
burg, where he viii be the guest of the
czar till the opening of the exposition.
After spending some weeks at Vienna,
he Will proceed to London, as the guest
of the British queen. He will doubtless
be feted at both courts, and perhaps
subsidized by one or. both ere he returns.
Mr.. Eastwick, who has seen the shah's
jewels, estimates their value at $50, ,O0O,-
900. This is, no doubt, by fair the
most valuable collection of precious
stones in existence. Among these is the
Darya a -Nur, the sister jewel to the
famous Kuh Nur, which according to
Persian tradition, was with it in the hiIt
of the sword of Afrasib 8, 900 years before
Christ. Rustam took it to Persia,
Timour carried it away and Nadir Shah
recovered it when he conquered the
great mogul, took Delhi and carried
away its treasures. The casket Of Jewels

Nadir Shah, and continued in. the pos
session of his descendant till Aga

THE LOST PICTURE.

BY SfINySA MYRTLE MILLER.
It was but a little dreamy face
There's many and many another one
With lovely pose and a charming grace,
And yet there is none that is like it-none.
whose may ina it with careless eyes,
'Tis not a shadow, piece Of art,
But something to look at, love and prize,
And press to your lips and hold to your heart
Long and lovingly you must gaze,
% And fancy the pure lips speak to you;
Fancy the saint-like eyelids raiSe
And the sweet eyes look you through and
through.
Let your soul be filled with questionings sad,
And say: Is it best that she quit her play,
And wonder and wait and be never glad,
Calling me, calling me day by day?
Or is it best that she lift her eyes, q
COnhding to those who are in my place,
That the smile clear-eyed on the sunny skies,
And laugh and sing and forget my face?
What if, under sorrows sorcery EsH.
Wftching my idols day by day,
On a wide and silent forRetfCn sea
My darling's features should drift away? -
What if, when seek her with bounding sigh,
shall find her not in the haunts of yOre,
And a little specter, with mOurnful eye, .-
Shall stand in her place forevermOre? Us
Let your tortured fancy have widest scope,
Until it seems that your heart must break,
And then with quick and sudden hope
Say: 1t is all for her dear sake.
There's many picture under the sun, Il
With meek sad face and tresses bright;
And yet for me there is only one, T.
And that-I lost it yesternight.
