THE GERMAN GAZETTE.
London, August 24.-The Times this
morning again comments on the arti-
Gle against France published recently
at Berlin in the North German Gazette
which has attracted much attention
throughout Europe. 1t says the Ga
gotte's article is gross and deliberate;
if it fails to shock the public opinion of
Europe, it is only because we are ac-
customed to hear Germany address
France in terms unknown wholly to
European diplomacy. To prefer an
, untenabe charge in langua ge calcu
lated to wound and humiliate France
is an outrage on decency and courtesy.
Diplomacy has abundant resources for
conducting controversies without re-
sorting to language of vulgar menace.
Paris papers give various reasons for
the article, including the recent UNI
yelling at Courbersire of the monu-
ment to commemorate the defense of
Paris.

their authority is very arbitrary and

anything. The leading and influential

PORTABLE HOUSES.

Il Nelc Enterprise Ia Minne0pOliS-4 NeaU
Departure IN Building Houses, Which
Cost Only Hall the Anaount of Ordinary
Houses.
Mr.. l.. Forrest, recently from Bellevue,
Ont, called upon the GLOBE and exhibited
a model of his new invention of a portable
house. It is made of sections three feet
in width and of any length
to suit the desired height
of the house to be built. Like Solomon's
temple, complete house is erected from
these sections without the sound of ham
mer. Not nail is used in its construction.
On the old Chinese plan everything is
grooved and. ''dove-tailed" together and
then made secure by the use of screws. It
is as nearly air tight as it is possible to
make wooden building. A number of
these houses have been erected in Winni
peg, and according to the press
of that city are models of
neatness and comfort, being perfectly
proof against the piercing blasts of the
winds of that country.
Messrs. Nelson, Tenney & Company,
lumber manufacturers on the east side,
have carefully examined the plans furnish
ed by Mr.. Forrest, and have submitted
written proposals, wherein they contract
to furnish and erect the houses at just
about one-half the cost of ordinary wood
en- houses and cottages, and consequently
it will prove a sort of boon to people of
limited means who whish to provide
comfortable no me for their families.

Hrs. Frank Leslie.
IPittsburg Dispatch. |

Mrs. Frank Leslie, whose receptions are
now one of the features of fashionable so
ciety, is very handsome woman, with a
Jewish cast of features. She lives in one
of the expensive "brownstone fronts"
among the fifty streets which is fitted up
in luxriant style, but in exceeding good
taste, and here one evening in every week
Mrs. Leslie is at home to her friends. This
winter Lady Hardy, the English tourist
and authoress, with her daughter, are guests
of Mrs. Leslie, and this takes many agree
able foreigners to the house, which is an
added attraction to Mrs. Leslie's evenings.
But society does not interfere with Mrs.
Leslie's attention to business. Every
morning at o'clock her coupe is at the
door to take her down town to the Office
of Leslie's magazines, where she remains
experimenting the business of that i'm
mense establishment until her coupe arrives
to take her home in time to make her
toilet for dinner.

The Farm.

In opening the lecture, he referred to the
matter of mental hygiene. 1t is point
which is constantly forgotten everywhere,
chat the mental condition of the members
of the family has very much to do with
their physical condition, and that the two
things are mutually interactive. The great
lack on the farm is the want OF other kinds
of culture than those which are involved in
the labor of the farm. Interest should be
shown by farmers in the game laws; the
interest of the boys in the dog and gun
should be encouraged. The farmer would
have stronger hold upon his boys if the
home life was madesa happy one as we'll as
a paying one. The facilities are sufficient
to make farmers homes much more at
tractive than they have hitherto been.
Even from the mercenary standpoint of
dollars and cents it would pay, and it
would do good deal to make home hap
pier for the mother. The women in the
towns know nothing about the isolatAons
which cultivated farmers wives feel in
their solitary farm house in the winter.

worried good deal by Mrs. Mintzer. Dr.
Mintzer was in sound mind on the dav the
will was made, the Sd day of Mrrch. and
no change took place in his condition tin

Mrs. Mintzer to be kept out of the room
as she worried and annoyed the doctor
DR.. Jones said that Mintzer was afraid of
his wife and that he said she would do
anything. He told DR.. Mintzer that that
was a hard way to talk about his wife.
when DR.. Mintzer replied: 'You don't
know her as we'll as do"
