THREE MILLION IDLE MEN.

Col. Valliere, the head of the Swiss
School of Artillery, has published an
exceedingly interesting essay on the
armies of Continental Europe. From
this essay We learn that the entire armies,
with reserves, amount to $500, 900 men,,
and of this number he gives Germany
|, 100, 900; France, 1000, 900; RUSSIA,
1000, coo; Austria, SOC, 000, and Italy,
100000. About half the soldiers here
enumerated are at all times under arms.
The cost per man, according to Col.
Valliere, is about 5000 per year, or say
for the maintenance of 1900, 900 men, a
total of 5000, 000, 900. Here are three
millions of men taken from the indus
tries, taught little but the use of arms,
and supported by the working people of
the country. What Il fearful waste
Is it any wonder that the people of
Europe are poor, when five nations pay
yearly 5000, 000, 900 for the support of
men in idleneSs-mcn who are not of the
slightest use to those who support them?
How long will it be before the nations
Of Europe discover that they are paying
altogether too dearly for the luxury of
Kings and courts-Of national glory?
When they do make the discovery there
Will soon be an end to grand armies, to
gaudy Generals, and corrupt or ambi-
tious monarchs, and police will take the
place Of soldiers. Happy is the United
States, with no rival nations on her Dor
ders compelling her to maintain i'll idle
ness an army of 400, 900 or 500, 900 men.
Much as we growl now over excessive
taxation, of extrayagancc, how much
more would we have then to bcwail our
misfortunes? Happy indeed is any ma
ton which has no necessity for a large
army

4 C-1SE or LUCK.

Three men were descending the Mis-
souri, river in a skiff. 1t was their
intention to run from Brule City 20
Sioux City. They reached Marshall's
island and were drawn into a chute
where the rushing current of the rising
river carried them fifteen miles an hour.
Their boat struck Il snag and capsized,
and none of the men could swim. But
they were very lucky. 1t looks as if
three separate snags rose up out OF the
muddy, boiling current like arms to
a v them. Each man reached for his
snag and caught it, then held on and
halloed for dear life for somebody to
come. It was three hours before any

THE BRIDE or IN HOJR.

\ romance in real life is reported from
Halifax, i'll Yorkshire, namely, the elope-
ment of Il bride on her wedding day with
the gentleman who officiated as chest
man" at the ceremony, and who was,
moreover, engaged to be married to her
sister. After the marriage had taken
place the wedding party adjourned to
the house of the brides mother. Oneby
one they left the roo where they were
assembled, until the bridegroom found
himself sitting alone with his motler-in-
law. Some time having elapsed without
the r~eappearance of the bride, and the
bridegroom having exhausted his con
versatiOnal powers, went i'll search OF
her, and was rewarded by finding her in
a public house with the "bcst man."
The bridegroom himself, being Il teetO-
taller, was given to understand that his
presence was dC trOp i'll that establish
ment. This led to an argument, during
the course of which the bride and the
"best man slipped ont of the public
house, and have not since been heard of.
The story, which presents features of
unusual interest, is another example, if
any were needed, of the existence of
some defect in our present matrimonial
arrangements.-LOndOn Pal liaU Ga

Here is a true duck story One of the
wild ducks that sometimes swim III the
pond ncar my pulpit had it from an
elder-duck who has seen the cradle.
Away off at the north of the north coast
of Scotland are the Shetland Islands; SO
steep, cold, barren and lonely that focks
of sea-birds 90 there at certain times of
the year to build their nests and lay
their eggs. thinking that they willnot be
disturbed in such a place. But the eggs
have their value so the few and posr
inhabitants of the bleak and rock islands
are willing to descend the most dreadful
precipices and climb the most difficult
heights to find them.
Near the coast of one of the islands,
but separated from it by a tempestous
| channel, stands a high and very perpen-
dicular pillar of rock. Here, on this
steep and desolate height, the sea-birds
come in great numbers year after year;

even more dreadful precipices than
the hardest Shetlanders would dare
to scale, went in a boat to the foot of
this rock, and climbed its steep sides,
carrying with him a pulley and a very
strong rope, one end of which was al
ready fastened ON the highest point of a
neighboring island on the side nearest
the pillar. Arriving, after much toll and
danger, at the summit of the pillar, the
man managed to get the rope through
the handles of a stout basket, and then
fastened the pulley to the rock. Here
then was a way by which the islanders
could get owe to the pillar. By getting

Red MEN.

A new policy of dealing with the III
dams, who have been supported by the
government for the last fifty years, with
ont rendering anything in return, has
been adopted by our government.
Hereafter they will be treated like other
human beings, and will get just what
they work for and earn. So if they do
not work they will not eat. An act has
been passed by Congress requiring all
ablc-bOdied Indians ON reservations to
perform work enough to pay for the
supplies they receive from the govern
mcnt. No supplies will be granted to
any Indians unless they earn them by
work. They viii be encouraged to Sc
lcct land and TO improve it, and to con-
form to all modern ideas of civilization.
This is a good measure, and if it can be
enforced will do more than anything
else toward civilizing the Indian tribes
who are now Il constant terror to the
frontiers, and who are such 4 heavy load
to the tax payers of this country. But
we doubt the success OF the experiment;
the Indians are too lazy, %perfidious and
intractible to render probable their
transformation into good citizens.

one at a time, into the basket, andswing-
ing at this dizzy height over the foaming
channel, the islanders could pull them
selves across by means of the rope and
pulley to obtain the eggs.

is called the "Pillar of Moss" and the
basket is called the "Cradle of Moss"

III tIIILOfEH SSIhfNb St' ny ESS.
"About this time" reads the prophetic
mothers almanac, "expcct langnor,
headache, complaints of long lessons,
and lack of appetite" After a longcold
winter the sudden coming OF mild spring
days, however much desired, brings IL
feeling of ~listless WEAKNESS, il feeling in
which school children, especially the
schoolgirls, share more largely than IS
generally supposed. She is not sick, but
$50 tired :" She cannot Re coaxcd t 0
give up her school, but the lessons are
"hard;" she brings home Il pile Of books,
but opens them i'll the evening with Il
weary sigh; she tries to write her com
position, but "cannOt think she sits
down to practice her music, but what
was a pleasure to puzzle out two
months ago has now become Il burden.
The mthinking parent or teacher tells
her that she does not try, that the lessons
are neither harder nor longer than usual,
and that if she would only put her mind
upon them she woulds soon conquerthem.
She tries to try, and succeeds i'll getting
a first-class headache with the lessons;
and Il weary look, painful to see, settles
on her face. The simple truth is that
the child is feeling the physical reaction
s COMMON to the season, only she is far
more susceptible to such influences than
her elders are, and her rapid growth
probably intensifies her languid wcari-
ness. Ordinary duties seem hard to her,
and extraordinary one are often a
dangerous strain upon body and mini.
1t is a pity that it is an almost universal
custom to increase school tasks at this
season OF the year. Examinations, and
commandments and public exhibitions
of progress are in prospect, and pupils
are expected to review everything they
have studied during the school year, and
finish the allotted course at all hazards.
Instead of pressure, lessons should be
lightened, more recreations allowed, and
fresh air enjoyed al libitum. Especially
when oppressed by that nameless but
MISUNDERSTOOD languor and listlessness
the child should not be driven, but
helped ovcr the difficult places, and b.
no means scoldcd for failures which
manifestly result from physical causes.-

lived on the island came. The water

boat in the current, but they got a long
rope and cast it to the men and towed
them one by one to shore. Crossing tie

the rope, and were Ill rescued alive. 1t
was a clear case of luck.

TIE MOSAIC DIETIRY LIUS.

1t is strange that the Mosaic prescrip-
tons for mans diet, chiefly taken from
the tabernacle rites, have become, by
common consent, the bill OF fare of civ
ilizcd society; with variations, of course.
In the cities, especially, the main arti-
cles of food are those which the Laws OF
Moses recommended. When in former
days people dieted largely ON pork many
became hogs themselves, and many dis
eases still raging among men have been
conveyed into the human system by the
consumption Of pork, rabbits, hares and
other animal food which the Laws for
bid.
Psychologists understand well enough
the Importance of diet, and yet none
have gone to the trouble of giving the
Mosaic dietary laws a thorough scientific
examination. Here are the Jews, after
5000 years, a healthy, intelligent, ener-
getic and fertile race. Much is said
about their longevity, temperance, char
liable disposition, etc; still no scientist
has taken the trouble to examine the
food on which this race lived and thrived.
The point is certainly, scientifically very

LINCOLN'S SELF-RELIiNCE.

"Burleigh" writes to the Boston
.IOurnaI: Mr.. Lincoln, before he moved
to Springfield, was postmaster in a small
Western town. The office was poor and
Lincoln was poorer than the Office. 1t
was known that he was very hard up, and
it was also known that the Washington
agent was i'll town to collect the little sum
due the General POstoffice. \ friend,
thinking Lincoln might be embarrassed,
came down to the office to loan him the
sum necessary to meet the demand. Mr..
Lincoln thanked him and said he did not
need any loan. While the two were talk
ing the gentleman came in. The sum
due was less than 500. Lincoln went to
his desk and took out an old stocking
and turned the coin on the table. 1t was
counted out and met the demand exactly.
Well it might, for it was not only the *
act amount due, but the identical money
itself that Lincoln had taken in. Old
fashioned Rix dollars, ~pistareens, six
penccs, Old-fashioncd cents, and all were
there. 81 never use money that belongs
to other people," said Lincoln, and tina
resolution did much towards making him
President of the United States.

".ILL Il NUDDLE."

There ncve yet lived a thoroughly
happy man OF wOman High bred or
low bred, humanity has tribulations.
Worry is everywhere. Poor mems wives
Worry because the bread won't rise, or
the stove won't draw, or the clothes line
breaks, or the milk burns, or the pane
of glass is mended with putty, or they
can't afford to hire help. Rich mems
wives worry because the preserve dish is
not Of the latest pattern, or because
somebody finds out how a party-drcss is
trimmed before the party happens, or
because some grandee's wife overlooked
them, or because their servants are I'm
ruly, break up tea-sets, spoil dinners,
get drunk, and cut up sheets into under

ages about the same. The scale of miles
is different on different maps, but places
remain just so far apart, and so do
