Forests In EurOne.

The proportion of land covered with
forests throughout Europe is 90 per
cent, of which Russia and Sweden fur
nish the greatest part. In Russia, 40
per cent. of territory is covered with
woods, and of this some 100000, 600
acres are covered with pines and other
cone-bearing trees. Sweden and Nor

maple, pine, fir and willow. Austria
has 29 per cent, Germany has 26 per

Agriculture In Ita,r.

The Journal of Chemistry saws
there is no nation in Europe so al
vanced in its methods of teaching agri-
culture as Italy. 1t possesses two high
schools of agriculture, a school of for
estry, school of horticulture, one of
viniculture, two veterinary schools and
twenty-one secondary schools, varying
in prominence and organization, but
which may be compared broadly with
similar French colleges. These insti-
tutions are largely subsidized, either by
the state or the province where theyare
situated.

Every intelligent medical man Of The
present day recognizes tho very great
value Of rest In the treatment Of disease
Rest and Activity might be aptly compared
to two Sentinels, who have between them
the duty to perform Of guarding camp
or fortress. They must take II In turns
when the one goes oil, the other comes on.
Were Activity to remain too long OIL duty,
the heart would autter and fail, the brain
would feO', and the sentinel drop dead Of
fatigue. On the other hand, Rest might
remain long enough on guard to drop
asleep. You see that rest may be over.

Bismarck on the French.

The Paris correspondent of the leading
English Journal quotes Prince Bismarck
as saying: There are really, as it were,
two Frances-the France of Paris and
France of the provinces. The France of
Paris is a vain pleasure-seeking, agreea-
BILE, extravagant France, which makes
revolutions, declares war, and has no
idea of economizing. Everybody brings
money to it and it squanders everything.
But alongside it is the other France, the
true France, that of the provinces, which
labors hard, is sober, and saves. The
latter pays for all the freaks and follies
of the other. When the former makes a
revolution it is the latter that suffers.
When the former declares war it is the
latter than fights, though ..h,a provincial
Frenchman dearly loves the soil and
there is no greater sacrifice for him than
to leave it for military service. When l
was in France, / took a great interest in
the soldiers, and often talked with them.
Their whole desire was to get through
the service and return to the fields If
the peasants were listened to France
would never make war; and yet he fights
well when he does fight. When he is
beaten he is sorry; when he wins he is
pleased; but, victor or vanquished, what
is clearest to him is that victory or
defeat alike bring the war to an end and
allow him to 90 home again"

tage. where it was found that life was
not extinct. He was fearfully bruised
and shaken, however, and was some
weeks in recovering his usual health.
This incident wrought an entire
change in the old couple. Whether the
attention and sympathy of the neighbors
had anything to do with it cannot be
said; but it is very certain that few are
proof against kind words and loving
deeds; sneers and reproaches may
harden, but who can resist the sunshine
of love?
Happily the Rawleys' hearts were
touched by the friendly solicitude shown
them, and they evinced their gratitude
in many ways. Selfshness gave place to
generosity, and perhaps the final recov-
cry of Mrs. Higgins invalids was, in
some measure, due to the frequent sup
ply of new-laid eggs which Mrs. Raw
ley's hens seemed to take as much de-
light in laying for other people as for
their own mistress.
Be that as it may, hearts which had
