MoItke and bismarck.

During the eight years which have
elapsedsince the German empire was found
ed at Versailles, the writers of the father
land have been very busy discussing the
merits of the leading personages in the
drama of the Franco Prussian war. BY
general consent, Prince Bismarck and Count
Moltke were admitted to be the two fore
most leaders; but opinion differed much as
to which is really greater. For some
time the imposing figure of Bismarck en-
tirely filled the foreground; but more re-
Gently there are many signs showing that
he is not unlikely to be supplanted finally
by the less obtrusive personality Of Moltke
The more the actual events of the years
1870 and 1911 became known, from both
official documents and private memoirs
some Of the latter as yet little known i'm this
country, while Of no mean historical impor-
tance-the more it appears certain that
Count MOltke was in reality the leading
spirit Of the time. He commanded not only
in the field but in the cabinet. lie drew
beforehand the plans Of battles; and as he
designed the meshes on which the German
hosts grasped the capital Of France. 80 he
delineated likewise the hard outlines Of the
treaty following the conquest. All this
was not known before, but is now gradual
ly becSming known. Moltke, throughout
the Franco-Prussian war, remained very
much in the same attitude he still assumes
IN the German Reichstag, where he sits
with arms folded, immovably 10 the same
place, speaking rarely, seeming often 20
dream, but still showing when he opens his
lips, that he has not lost word Of the de-
bate. il has in recent years been the
fashion in Germany, adopted from comic
papers, TO give nicknames 30 eminent men.
Prince Bismarck Is "der chriche Maker
the honest broker, while Count Moltke rs
called ''der Wagrnlcnker the driver. or
the man at the helm The title indicates
more nearly than anything else the position
assigned to tho great Captain by bis coun-
trymen.

CIDAR NINEGAR.-There is no vinegar
which wears, or which we can use
without distaste, like good cider vine
gar. If any OF our readers have pure
cider which they wish to change into
vinegar, IL can be easily done by filling
cask partly full, and setting il at the
south side of building or fence, where
1t will keep warm; putting junk bottle
in the bung-EOle, neck dOwnwards, to
keep out dirt and insects, and letting IL
stand through the heat OF summer.
Once week draw out "A few gallons
and pour back slowly. This will hasten
the process, and by fall very fair vine
gar will be had, which will be greatly
improved by keeping through another
year without freezing. The air will
circulate around the neck of the bottle.
and the occasional drawing out and
pouring back gives more air, thus tend
ing to hasten the process. A warm
temperature, with plenty of air, is all
that is needful in making vinegar-al-
ways provided you have good pure
cider to begin with, put up in clean
sweet casks.
