The True and the False.

III anybody, man or woman, stands up and
says that "the man does not live who can be
trusted, l say they speak plain lie, or else are
not acquainted with their subject; or, perhaps,
possess 80 little of true manhood or woman
hood that they cannot recognize the same when
seen in others. II makes me mad that such a
thought is entertained of men generally. It's
true there are low-mnded men whom It's best
TO be guarded against-n whose company
young lady is misplaced to her grief; but, thank
God, are there not thousands of men whose
hearts in their noblenesS throb with compassion
for the fair young girl (yet foosh) who is about
to throw her life away for mere fop, whom she
has selected for her husband. in preference to
the man who truly loved her? And this same
true lover held nothing more sacred during
their courtship, than the innocence and purity
OF her he hoped Ia WIN for his wife, but whom
he lost because she could not discriminate be-
tween Trustworthy man and a rascal. And

mainly In our millions Of currency to-day
there are. of course, many counterfeit coins and
bills ailoat SO well executed that they pass for
months from hand to hand without detection.
Yet sooner or later the deceit is found out and
usually poor man must bear the loss.
Then what is found? Why we find. though
the coin is faultess in its "gct-up," that the
metal is alleged. and not from the United States

there was a genuine coin to copy from, or there
could be no counterfeit, az we all know. So are
there limitations of the true man. We meet and
converse with them every day, but, owing to
their fine cut and outer sembance TO gentle
man, We, perhaps, never know their worthless
ness and, if the revelation is made it is always
with an allotted amount of misery and unhap-
piness to parties concerned.

Do Animals Resist Termination.

Temptation frequently begets in the
dog, cat, and other animals the same
kind of mental or moral agitation, and
the same sort of result, as in man. Some
times we can see-in the dog, for in
stance-the whole play of the animals
mind the battle between its virtuous
and vicious propensities, its promptings
to right its longing for the wrong-for
the titbit which it would he improper to
steal-and the final triumph either of
virtue or temptation. The poor animal.
knowing or feeling the weakness of the
flesh, sometimes has the moral strength.
the force of character and good sense, to
avoid temptation altogether. The dogs,
like men, are apt TO have the most
trying temptations thrust unexpect-
edly upon them, and then comes the tug
of war of the appetites and passions-
the moral turmoil that may make ship
wreck of or that may strengthen virtue.
Sometimes, then. by the dog. as by the
man, temptation is successfully resisted
after perhaps n series of protracted and
painful moral struggles. that have been
very apparent to theon-looker. Unfort
unately, however, equally in dog and
man, the resistance to temptation is less
common by far than non-resistance or
in resistance, the result of
which is various forms of degree of wrong
doing.-Popuiar Science Monthly.

THE COST OF THE SWORD.
What German Unity Has Imposed
Upon Europe.

The London EconODaist shows, by "a
statement in three tables of comparison,
how terribly expensive the unity of Ger
many has proved TO Europe. For this
purpose it takes the budgets, the mill
tary expenditures, and the national debts
of the different European states III 1879,
and collates them with the respective
accounts for 1865, before the utter over
throw of Austria in the seven weeks war
had sent every neighbor of Prussia To
the armorer. Even fourteen years ago
the budgets of Europe were drawn upon
ON "A very liberal scale, and contemplated,
II they did not secure, adequate defensive
preparations. All the great powers be-
ieved themselves in condition to make
good their frontiers against any single
assailant; while Prussia, as the event
proved, had accumulated an irresistible
force out of estimates which amounted
to less than half the present expenditure
OF Germany. Yet the figures of 1865
look very small when placed beside those
OF last year. Here is the comparisons:
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1880-04-09
BUpGETs oF M EunoPEAN sTATEs.
Total. ......... 81, 1894, 100000
5000.

Here is an increase is 1895, go, O0O in
the annual national expenditures of the
European, states, an augmentation OF
46.9 per cent. OF this addition, nearly
two-thirds may be ascribed to military
expenditures, either directly for current
disbursements or indirectly for interest
upon national debts due almost ex-
clusively to war.
The military expenditures of the States
tabulated above amounted to 1901, 750,-
400 in 1879, against S5SS, 900, 600 III 1865,
an increase of $216, $50, 400 in the an
nual cost of the land and sea forces
maintained by European countries.
The national debts of the different
countries show still more appalling
augmentation. Every country on our
list, with the exception of Great Britain
and Holland, has added to its indebted
ness since 1865 The total of the ma
tional liabilities of European states
shows an increase of o. per cent. as
will be seen by the following statement:
NArIosAL DEBTS OF EUROPEAN STATES
Amount IN S2l .623OOO,OJD
Amount IN 1860 l3,l33 10000
Increase in fourteen years .......s Sass 100000
Thus, reckoning at the low average
interest of per cent, the EcOuOmist
estimates that the total increase of ex-
penditure, through war or fear OF it,
amounts to $685., 100000 per annum,
and that this sum represents a capital OF
$40, 600, 600, 900, or $4,000, 00O, 600
