Funeral of Baron RGthschiIG.

At the funeral Of the late Baron
Lionel de Rothschild the first three
spadefuls of earth were thrown in by
the eldest son of. the deceased, $50 that
he might fulfill the duty of burying his
dead" The other kinsmen followed
in their order, then members of the
congregation. AS the coffin was lower
ed into the grave those present joined
In the words, May he come to his ap-
pointed place in peace" and plucked
few blades of grass before they left,
saying in acknowledgment of the resur-
rection, "And they shall blossom forth
from the ruins like the dust Of the earth"

THE DIFFERENCE.

Two babes were born in the self-same town
on the very same bright day;
They laughed and cried in their mothers ar m:
In the very selfsame way.
And both were as pure and as Innocent
AS falling flakes of snow
But one of them lived in the t,rraced house,
And one in the street below.
Two children played in the selfsame town,
And the children both were fail;
But one had her curls brushed smooth ant
round
The other had tangled hair.
Both of the children grew apace,
AS ali our children grow;
But one of them lived in the terraced house.
And one In the street below.
Two maidens wrought in the se.f-same town,
And one was welded and loved;
The other saw through the curtains part
The world where her sister moved
And one was smiling, happy bride,
The other knew care and woe;
For one of them lived in the terraced house,
And one In the street below.
Two women lay dead in the self-same town,
And one had tender care;
The other was left to die alone,
On her pallet so thin and bare.
One had many to mourn her loss.
For the other few tears would flow;
For one had lived in the terraced house,
And one in the street below.
If Jesus. who died for rich and poor,
In wonderful, holy love,
Took both of the sisters in His arms
And carried them up above;
Then all the difference vanished at last,
For in heaven none weuld know
Which of them lived in the terraced house,
And which in the street below.

the protection of Europe from increas-
ed humidity. The only possible north
ern outlet for air currents from Ell Juf
would be across Tunis in northeasteriy
direction over the widest part of the
Mediterranean. Currents moving in
that direction, if they reached Europe
at all, would touch the shores of Greece
after they had lost most Of their hui
nudity. M. de Lesseps, after careful
examination Of the question, is con-
WINGED that it would result in the gene
raj improvement Of the climate of Eu-
rope rather than its detriment. The
advantage Of the increased evaporation
to North Africa cannot be overestimat-
ed. The snow-clad cliffs of Alban, ly-
ing to the east of the proposed sea, and
the Kong Mountains to the south, would
bring down upon the parched desert
grateful rains, which, with the assist
ance of cultivation, would in time, no
doubt, redeem thousands of square
miles from the desolation of the sands.

the pen on the pad, shook the ink
