victoria's Fortune,

Her Majesty possesses an immense
fortune. The estate at Osborne is II
least five times as valuable as it was
when it was purchased by the Queen
and Prince Albert about forty years
ago. The Balmoral property of her
Majesty now extend over 80. GOO acres.
Claremont was granted to the Queen
for life in 1866, with reversion to the
country; and her Majesty purchased
the property outright three years ago
for G78, 1000. Probably its marked value
is not much under ESQ, 900. The Queen
also possesses some property at Coburg,
and the Princess Hohenlohe left her
the Villa Hohenlohe at Baden, one Of
the best residences in the place. With
regard to personal property Mr.. Nield
left the Queen over $500, 600, and the
property left by the Prince Consort is I
believed to have amounted to nearly
f6OO, 600; but the provisions of his will
have been kept strict secret, and the
document has never been proved. The
Queen must also have saved a vast
sum out of her income, which has al.
ways been very we'll managed. Since
the death of the Prince Consort
the general administration Of the
Queens private affairs has been confid-
ed to Lord Sydney, who is consum-
mate man Of business. I have ress or
to believe that, in due course, applica.
ton will be made to Parliament on the
behalf Of the children of the Prince and
Princess of Wales. Indeed, there is to
be Royal message on the subject of

Queer Things in Ears.

A boy not yet twelve years old is al
most weekly visitor at the New York
eye and ear infrmary. WELL" said
the aurist, as he saw him come in rs
usual one afternoon, "what have you
got in there this time?" "Nawthin'
but bean" he drawled. The boy had
fallen into the bad habit Of putting such
things into his ears as shoe buttons,
pieces Of slate pencils and wads of pa
per. The aurist recently met with
remarkable illustration of this perni-
cious practice, which he related to q re.
porter of the New York Times:
A young woman of twenty three came
to me so deaf that I could hardly make
her hear by shouting through trum-
pet. After removing Q great quantity
of wax from her ears found something
metallic.
whats this?" I said. sHsve YOU
been putting something in your carr"
ooh, dear, no." she said. 81 am not
so foolish as that"
Imagine her surprise when I pulled
out round smooth button, with quite
q large shank to it. "This seems to
have been in there 8 great many years,
I said. To my surprise the young WON.
an crouched in the corner in undis.
guised terror.
20 doctor!" she said; "what is that
awful noise?"
It was nothing but q wagon rumbling
by, but ] instantly saw what the trou-
BILE was. Her hearing had become nor.
NAL when I removed that button, and
she WIS frightened and bewildered ct
the tumble of confusing sounds.
The ticking of the clock, chirping of
the canary, or dripping of water dis.
tressed her, and the rustic of her own
silk dress made her start with fear.
I sent one of the assistants home with
her in q carriage, and he said that the
clatter in the streets 80 distracted her
that he was compelled to hold her IN her
seat. About week afterward she came
in again
And wanted that button put back
again, suppose?" interrupted the re-
porter.
Oh no; she was brimming over with
happiness, though for q day or two she
was afraid to leave the house. But she
told me about that button.
when I was about eight years DID,"
she said, II was sent to the village
church in New England with my grand
mother. The sermon was always long,
and I used to amuse myself by pulling
ct the brass buttons on my coat.
zone of them came off one Sunday.
and I occupied my time with putting It
in my ear and shaking it out again.
Suddenly I felt it sink away in there,
and I could not get it out.
Il was afraid to tell my grandmother
at the time, and soon afterward forgot
it. At ten years of age I began to grow
deaf, and have been getting worse ever
since, but never once thought of that
button until you removed it."

Even q comparatively light burden be-

ithelps one wonderfully to lay it down,

or into them, and they always look
their thanks. Tie farmer is too apt to
make his life like the constant bearing
of the heavy load, or the drawing Of
the team. He does not have resting
and breathing spells enough; he seems
to think he cannot afford the time. He
forgets that the distance is much short
er to the rested horse, and the load
much lighter to the rested man.

year they will be more free from objec-
tionable features than ever before. Do
not think it enough that you go alone,
brother farmer; your wife needs rest
as badly Is you do, and often ten times
worse. Plan, therefore to take her.
And then the boys-they have been
good boys, and have worked hard and
faithfully; of course you will take them.
And the girls-well, you might % we'll

Go early and go every day. When you

politicians; 80 stick by them and
let the button-holers go. Take the
whole family about, and show them
the improved stock; call attention TO

find some new improvements in it. Be
sure to point ont everything. Make
yourself happy by seeing how much
you can interest them in what comes
from the farm, and what tends to light

II you see anything on the ground
that merits your disapproval, call the
managers attention to it, and beg Of
them to abate the nuisance. If they
