The United States seems to be al
most the only land Of abundance.
India has been and still is suffer
ing terribly from famine. China
reports distress, only less widespread
and disastrous, from the same cause,
and Brazil now crowds forward with
its sad story. In the province Of
Ceara, the secca, or dry season, has
produced most disagreeable effects.
In some pastoral districts cattle have
become extinct, and the loss up to
Oct. 1 was estimated at $4,000 head.
This, added to the failure Of cereal
crops and the damage to sugar and
cotton, has obliged the bulk of the
population to migrate to the seacoast.

THE LITTLE SUN BONNET.

All howl love that little sun-bonncti
When worn on the head Of my boy;
EncircIing the face of my soft-ipped darling

Although 70 is made Of the coarscst domestic
When tied close under his chin,
i protects from the sun sweet little head,
That never has known any sin.

Aud press It down close to his face
That two brighter eyes never peeped ron
beneath,
Nor a king wore a crown with sucd grace
We soon viii lay aside the little sum bonnet
When its wearisome course ithas uml
Wen roll it up carefully and lay it away
To keep for the good it has done.

being forced upon the public atten-

A Atolerably correct judgment Of the
way either man Tor wOman) takes
hold of life might be arrived at, a GER
tain philosopher once said, by no
ticing how he got up to go at the
end of a visit, either of business or
pleasure. If he did not move until
he was ready to start, and then went,
decidedly, there is faculty and prompt
ness and decision. If he made q
dozen starts, and advanced upon his
retreat by such parallels Of conver-
sation or movements that there was
never a certainty that he had any
purpose either to go or stay, his
mental and moral characteristics
might readily be tabulated.

obtains box at price Of five francs,

soles herself by rejecting that it might
be worse.

can be borne, but n bald head never,
