The Egyptian Army.

There exists a considerable diversity
of opinion about the national character
of the fellaheen, but on one point all
authorities have been hitherto agreed
that the fellah is one of the most un-
warlike types of mankind and heartily
detests military service. Any one who
travels in Egypt during the time of the
conscription must be painfully i'm
pressed with this fact. In the villages
he may be often reused at night by a
violent alteration outside, which begins
with gruff, bass male voices and culmi-
mates in shrill, hysterical, falsetto tones.
The first time he is so disturbed he
probably assumes that it is case of
burglary or manslaughter, and rushes
out with the intention of supporting
vigorously the party of law aud order,
but he finds to his disappointment that
it is nothing more serious than the
capturing of a recruit for the khedivial
army; and though it may be quite true,

Couldn't Stand 1t.

The Mulberton and the Ginsley fami.
lies are near neighbors. They live in
the suburbs of Austin. There is, OF
should be, q bond of unity between
them, for they are both very slow and
deliberate in spending money. Both OF
the families mentioned keep very frugal
tables. Mrs. Mulberton thought il
would be a fine stroke of policy to send
her children over to the Ginsley man
sion just about supper time. The re-
suit was entirely satisfactory, for the
next time the ladies met. Mrs. Mulber,
ton asked:
"Why don't you send your little dears
over to my house every evening"
II couldn't think of it. They come
home hungry as wolves, and would est
me out of house and home if they were
to keep it up"
There is now a glacial epoch existing
between the two families. Teas SIT

Noble Examples.

Two young ladies of our Louisville
Y. w. c. L. U. recently went TO New
York to be present at their brothers
wedding. Wine was offered there and
at the subsequent receptions. 1t re-
quired some character to leave the
wine untouched and drink the healths
in water, but these loyal girls were
equal to the test. At last the father of
the bride, touched by this quiet steal
faStness. rose and said, with look of
admiration: - propose the health of
our Temperance guests from Ken
tucky," which was drank with enthusi-
asm, and, let us hope at least, in water.
One of our leading Indiana workers

When asked to enter saloon in prose-

not think either of these pleas sufficient
to Justify departure from his strict
rule to allow no drink ON the premises,
and sacrificed his profits to his princi-
Piles, for the intending visitors politely
declined to come.

Everybody laughed and laughed, and
one man fell down and choked and
