1t appears, therefore, that the bulk of
the deficit CORES ponds to Great Britain,
bnt it must also be observed that as the
Continent is unable to feed its own popu.
latiOn we must in future look rather to
some other hemisphere for the needful
supply than to the supposed surplus that
Russia, Hungary, Holland, or Denmark
will have for disposal. This may at first
sight appear to aggravate the evil, and
to cause some uneasiness in the minds of
maLy of our readers 1t will be seen,
however, on examination to be.a decided
benefit to Great Britain, and to explain
in a measure the increase of wealth in
this country simultaneous with agricul-
tural decline. The number and tonnage
of vessels built last year in Great
Britain exceeded anything before
known, and reached in round
numbers 100000 tons. The quantity
of food brought to Europe during the
year exceeded 10000 tons, and as the
deficit on the continent increases, so will
the carrying trade of our shipping,
which is rapidly mOnOpolizing the com.
merce of the high seas Our colonies
also must benefit enormously by the de-
mand for grain and meat, the produc-
ton of which, especially in Australia,
is on a scale of magnitude sufficient to
dazzle Europeans We know that South
Australia raises a ton of wheat per in
habitant, big and little, and that New
Zealand can send home yearly a million
frozen sheep almost as easily as thou
sand bales of wool. The annual increase
of sheep in Australia is seldom under
% 600, 900, one half of which can be ex-
ported. Hence, it is manifest that both
agricultural and pastoral industry will
grow in dimensions and profit with the
demand from Europe.
1t was the boast of the Americans, as
Mr.. Consul Murray wrote in 1884, that a
day would come when the United States
would feed Europe, but in those days
Australia was not thought of. At pre-
sent the Americans have large popula-
ton of their own to feed. and the mum.
Der of sheep and cattle is little more than
that of inhabitants In Australia, on
the other hand, each inhabitant may be
said to possess twenty-three sheep and
three cows. Under such circumstances
Australia promises to become the prin-
cipal market for supplying Europe with
meat.

To Mend Stockings,

A lady, who finds in the practice of
the homcly art that she brings comfort
to her family, gives these suggestions as
to stocking mending.
Given dozen pair of woollen ribbed
hose. Select from them the two or
three pairs most worn; cut away the
heels and toes, and lay by the better
parts for use in mending -well. yes, for
patches. From the best hose retained
to be repaired, cut out the worn heel,
and from the patches cut new heel
precisely like the old one. First sew
the bottom Of the heel, then sew it to
the place made vacant. Use soft cot
ton, or else the fine soft mending yarn
which comes, of all colors, on spools.
Sew the raw edges "over and over"
about as close rs i nice overcast, so that
when this new heel is worn out, you
have only to pull the thread and insert
another.
The thread must not be so tight but
that the seam will tlatten and become
imperceptible to the foot. To sew in
such heel will require about one min
ute. If the toe is worn so that the new
darn seems to take from the old, and
the rent is made worse, cut it off 50 far
towards the instep as it is thin. From
the top of one of the socks put aside,
cut new toe like the old. Sew across
the end, and then around the foot, OBJ
serving to make the seam, as before,
flat and soft. When again worn out,
repeat the process, till the entire dozen
of socks, like the tabled ducks, have
eaten one another up.

The Arizona Duelists.

The editors OF the daily Tombstone
Epitaph and Tombstone Independent,
printed at Tombstone. Arizona. have
something to write about now, and they
write with all their might. Samuel
Purdy of the Epitaph and Patrick Ham
ilton of the Independent were to fight =
duel, and didn't fight because the pis-
tolls to be used couldn't be agreed upon.
So they went home guiltless of each
others blood, and explanations were in
order. Hamilton said that Purdy
weakened when the fighting parties
were few miles over in Sonora, and
as Purdy's party was the first to with
draw from the bloodless field he rises to
explain. The substance of it all is that
Hamilton, us the challenged party. un-
der the code had the right Of choice Of
weapons. He chose pistols and brought
pair along with him which he and his
second insisted should be used. Purdy
also brought brace of pistols, suppos-
ing he would be privileged to use one of
his own. Now, it happened that Ham
ilton's pistols were very hard on the
trigger and Purdy could not raise the
hammers without using both arms.
One of his wrists had lately been shat
tered by an accident and he had little
use of that hand. The agreement was
to fire and keep on firing until one or
both principals were down, and with
Hamilton's pistols Purdy would have
been at great disadvantage. Hamil-
ton insisted upon his pistols, and his
second said: "lf my pistols don't go
nothing goes" Then Purdv's second,
after u consultation with his principal,
proposed to toss up for pistols, but the
Hamilton second would not accept the
proposition. There's nothing for it but
to wait until Purdy's wrist gets we'll in
order to give him an equal chance in
the use Of Hamiiton's harl-cocking pis-
tolls.

''There it is again-another cashier

''And my friends will get me par

''But think of the disgrace!'
''Pooh! Think of the injury to the
bank, rather.'
''The cashier lights a twenty-center
and puts his feet on the table, and the
trio retire to a corner, whisper, nod,
agree, and the president returns and says:

the reporter, as the colonel paused.
''He wasn't so absent-minded after
all,'' said the colonel. "There was seven
beans in that box''
II found out afterwards that the box
had no bottom, or rather had covers at
both ends. On one Of the covers was
fastened three beans, and there were
four loose beans in the box. When the

Many years ago one of the Partisan
theaters came under the management
or at least the proprietorship-of a rich
native of the Ottoman empire, who new
ertheless kept a keen eye on the ac-
counts.
Among the items of expenditure was
one of three francs week for meat
for the eight or ten cats to protect the
canvas scenes, ETC., from the ravages of
the rats.
This item was promptly disallowed
by the Turkish proprietor, who wrote
upon the margin of the bill the following
dilemma:
..If the cats eat the rats, wherefore
the meat? If they don't, wherefore the
cats?"
