LA ROCHELLE, April 29.-Surprsingly little at
tention has hitherto been paid by the American
press to the system of harbor improvements inaugu-
rated by the present Government in Franco.
Whether, while Napoleon III. played his fiddle and
the people danced anybody bothered about the
commercial future Of the country, is q question
which ut this late day it is hardly worth while to
discuss. Let rather turn to the living present Of
to-day and say that the Republic Is wisely looking
beyond mere questions of abstract politics. and il
showugi its sagacity in q substantial way, by laying
the foundations of great commercial and indus
trial development.
The advent Of n. dc Freycinet to power was
fortunate step toward the carrying out Of these
projects, for he it who previously, in the capac-
ity of Minister of Public Works. had conceived and
iuaugurated them. NJ. de Freycinet. rs is generally
known, is a self-made mana fair type of the pos
sibilities which Republic offers anywhere TO men
of energy and genius. He comes nearer than any
other man In France. probably. to what we Occa-

What Is Fancy 2

1t Is strange what phantasies come in-
to the brain of one who 10 dying
Things never dreamed Of before find ex-
preston as the last breath Gibbs away q
language SO simple and beautiful that it
almost seems to flavor of the incense OF
heaven that hovers over the fast-chiIl
ing form, waiting to bear the soul up
ward.
Sunday night a little waif-an orphan
died In hovel on the flats. She had
always led an uncouth life, In harmony
with her surroundings. Her father and
mother died years ago--the mother bare
ly lived to. hear the little one lisp her
name-and yet, just before she died the
other night, the child turned her big
dark eyes up to star that you could see
twinkling through the cracks of the
roof, and exclaimed, as she stretched out
her little hands:
"Ohl there's mamma come to get
mel''
The sad tired expression that rested Oh
her face changed into joy and expecta-
tion as she gazed upward, and turning
to one Of the watchers by her side, she
said
Won't you please open the door and
let her in 7"
I" oh, I'm SO glad you came, mamma;
for maybe couldn't have found you all
alone, for heaven is so big.'
Her lips trembled and moved after she
had ceased speaking, as If she was whis-
pering very low to some one, but no
words escaped her until, as her face grew
paler, she clasped her hands tighter and
sobbed:
sis that it over there, mamma ? And
is that God ?''
Then the tiny hands relaxed their hold
upon the imaginary form they embrac-
ed, her eyes opened slowly, and the lit
tie one was dead. Who can tell il it
was fancied spirit that came to meet
her9 Perhaps it was it might have
been phantasy that came with the
dead cloud and then again perhaps the
eyes of her inner soul were opened that
she might catch glimpse of what lies
beyond us-Over Therein the Land. of
the Real.

staIghtened secend there was a
crash like the report of cannon; the
mare fell foreward on her knees tear
Ing up the ground as she went; while
the widow, the captain and Bill Tyke
shot up into the air about six feet and
alighted In semi-unconsclous condition
amid the wreck and debris Of what had
been the wagon.
1t was the end Of Captain Todd's
courtship. The wagon was an indistin-
guishable mass of kindllng wood the
mare had broken both forelegs and re-
quired to be shot, and the widow kept
her bed for three weeks afterward. The
captain again follows the sea, for as be
often remarks to his first mate
"T'he sea, Bill, is our proper spear
We know more about salln' vessels
than we do about drlvin' hosses."
"Speak for yourself Cap'n,'' Bill al
ways replies "At my end of the wag-
on did my dooty."

SUNDAY READING.
ProcrastlnatIon.

"Procrastlnation is the thief OF time"
This we all know, not only by observa-
tion, but by experience. The tendency
TO put Off Till tomorrow what we might
do to-day Is one which we should fight
against and strive to overcome, for 1t Is
an evil whose effects are so visibly seen
not In the present but In the future also.
Tomorrow we say we will do what, If
we would only act as we ought, we
would be done to-day.
The poor drunkard sometimes thinks,
after this week will drink no more;'
but how does II end2 Next week is the
same thing and so time goes on, and
the drunkard goes to fill drunkard's
grave and TO his final account, the vic
tim of procrastlnation and his own ap-
petite.
Men keep on putting Off the salvation
of their souls in the same way. " Next

gthe body and this worlds goods are my

and of their own free will refused the

You have friend sad at heart you

Hints.

Don't complain of the selishness of
the world. Deserve friends and you
will get them. The world is teeming
with kind-hearted people; and you have
to carry kind, sympathetic heart in
your bosom to call out goodness and
friendliness from Others. 1t Is mistake
to expect to receive welcome, hospitality
words of cheer and help over rugged
passes in life, in return for cold selfish
ness which cares for nothing in the
world but self. Cultivate consideration
for the feelings of other people IL you
would never have your own injured. -
Those who complain most of i'll usage
are the ones who abuse themselves and
Others the oftenest.
