An interesting cavalcade will pass
through the continent this summer.
Sergt. Bates, it is said, will on May 10,
leave the States for Europe with two
ex-soldiers of France and Germany, and,
after passing through London, will pro-
coed to Calais. In London arrange
ments are to be made with an ex-soldier
of each of the other countries of Europe
to join him in the "Grand International
March of the Nineteenth Century,"
The Sergeant and the ex-soldiers, each
bearing the standard of his own coun-
try are to march from Calais to st.
Petersburg, through the capitals of the
continent. Negotiations are in progress
to persuade an Irish Home Ruler to
carry the greenhag of Erin. A white
silk banner, with the motto peace on
Earth, is also to be carried-if posi-

standard bearers will be q magnificent

his companions should pay visit with

Relation OF Water to Health.

DR.. Letherby, an eminent English
physician and chemist, after devoting
many years to investigation of the prop
critics of the water introduced into En-
glish cities, and to study of the sani-
tary documents on the subject, is re-
ported to have come to the conclusion
that moderately hard water is safer and
healthier than soft water. The former,
he asserts, is not only clearer, colder,
more free from air, and consequently
more agreeable than soft water, but is
less likely to absorb organic substances,
to sustain the life of zymotic organisms,
or to exert solvent properties upon salts
of iron or upon leaden conducting pipes;
the lime salts also exert q beneficial in
fuence upon the animal economy, and,
even protect the system from dangerous
outward influences. The argument is,
that the human body requires for its
nourishment and support a supply of
certain mineral salts, among which car
Donate and-phosphate of lime play an
important part in building up the com
pactness of the bones and in other func.
tions, and hard water furnishes these
salts.

PARSON LEE.

To drowsy country village
Came certain Parson Lee;
And man so quantity different
From all the other men was he
That the Squire himself, the skeptic,
Came to church to hear him pray,
And to note the strange things uttered
By this marvel of the day.
The eccentric said this planet
Was true and goodly place,
And the only thing it wanted
Was the more of Heavens grace;
And he sought to show the people
How to think and work and live,
So that each should help the other
And unto the needy give;
How the door that leads to Heaven
Was most amply broad and wide,
And how each could turn the handle
And go easily inside;
That the very gentlest natures
In the world may yet be strong;
And how truth is always wisdom,
And all wickedness is wrong.
He explained how true religion
Was day-working, nothing more;
That this world was not an ocean,
Nor we pebbles on the shore;
But that thinking men and women
should find better things to do
Than in twisting Gsd's commandments
Or quite breaking them in two.
As for acting like our neighbors,
Why, We none of us are foolsi
You cannot be made Christian
Under everybody's rules.
If your neighbours not as good as
He or you would have him be,
Just you go ahead and beat him :"
Said this candid Parson Lee.
Next, he told them how complaining
Was a noxious choking weed;
That the flowers scarcely blossomed
Ere they changed to homely seed;
How that seed again sprang upward
And bore many fiow'rets more;
And that life was ever fading
And renewing DER and DER
So. this man, by honest talking,
Worked his wonders in the town.
But he never cared for praises,
And he laughed at high renown.
Yet the people loved him dearly,
And they blessed God for the sight,
Till at last the Master left them,
On cold, dark winters night.
Thus he went, they knew not whittier
Have you ever met him, pray?
You would know him by his smiling,
And the sunshine on his way.
We have hunted DER Creation,
Over land and over sea,
But no traces can discover
OF our missing Parson Lee.
