immense amounts Of capital are freely

they successful, would be Of incalculable
benefit TO mankind, and the losers get no
thanks from the public for their pains. 1t
might reasonably be supposed that, in the

An Organization Inouleatinx Purity %
Life, Thought and speech Among Men.
Demorest's Monthly
An organization with the above title has
been effected in New York, and viii soon
nave branches in all the leading cities OF
the country. Its object Is a notle one, for
it aims to inculcate purity OF life thought
and speech among mon A similar organi-
zation has had a beneficial effect on the so
cial life OF England. Tbs White Legion de
mands Of its subscribers that they should
apply the same rules OF conduct and CONVEX
sation 10 mon that have always been de
manded OF women. This organization does
not pretend 10 be religious in its aims, only
liberal It's object Is to create greater rev.
creme for the female Sex IL would have
all men regard all women as they would
their mothers, their sisters, or their wives
The White Legion intends, IL possible, to
stamp as ungentlemanly and unbecoming
loose and indelicate conversation among
men All II asks OF women is that they shall
pass as stern a Judgment upon men whose
lives aro IMMORAL as it now does on mem
bers Of their own sex who ave disregarded
the higher canons Of conduct. OF course it
is easy to ridicule the objects OF n society Of
this kind, but all good men and women
should In every way encourage it Branches
OF the White Legion will be established
among the young men In our colleges. Herd
ing together in their dormitories, and away
from the refining Influences Of their female
relations, young c~ollegians are apt to be-
come coarse in their conversation and i'm
moral In their Conduct, hence they need
some standards Of behavior to save them
from giving way to their lower natures
II Is always well to keep before the young
a knowledge Of the dual aspects Of love be-
tween the sexes. In one vsw the appetite Is
that experienced by the tiger. the goat, or
the hyena, but this same brute impulse be-
comes, under the manipulation OF human
king agencies, the inspirer OF all that is
noble in life. The romance, the chivalry.
tho self-sacrifice involved in the higher rela-
ton OF the sexes Is what makes life endura
BILE and stimulates all the sentiments that
center about the family and the home.
These higher sentiments are q matter Of Gull
t~ivation, and hence the value Of refined so
ciety, good books, inspiring poetry, re-
igious enthusiasm and influences such as
can be brought to bear by organizations
such as the White Legion.

Changes are Imminent in the constitution
OF the British empire. so far England has
treated her colonies us dependent province.
She has done the fighting with her own
troops In every part OF the old world. While
she has permitted local self-government in
Canada, Australia, New Zealand and else
where she has not allowed her dependencies
to a any part in imperial politics Oh
late years 1t has been proposed TO form IA
great federative nationality by admitting
Into the imperial parliament representatives
from all the British colonies. In that case
tho latter would be expected to contribute
directly to the imperial treasury and fur
nish their quota OF troops to the English
army, which so far has been recruited en-.

PENJDEH. THE NEW RUSSIAN
ACQUISITION.

The Gladstone ministry having con-
ocded Penjdeh 70 the Russians, it is IN
tcresting to quote from a recently pub
iished English work an account Of that
LEGALITY. Ak Tepe is the controlling point
Of the Penjdeh district, where the AT.
nhans built q fort last year. Ii is situated
IN a fiat piece Of alluyial ground, around
which the Murghab passes in q winding
rourse before joining the kushk. and con
irols not only the junction Of the two
rivers, Int the whole country between the
Two rivers, up to the hills overlooking
llerat Fort Ak Tepe. with its seven
ieen guns, is thus in every sense a gate to
licmt That gate the Russians would
lave seized long since il the Nlghans had
not foresialled them 1t is included in
ihe territory demanded by Russia. The
Penideh settlements lie south Of the fort
toward Herat. thickly disposed around
The village of Penideh. six miles from Ak
'repe, and stretching forty miles or so
higher up the Murghab to within sight Of
The Afghan stronghold of Bala Murghab.
When Russians speak Of Penjdeh they do
,ot mean the VILLAGE Of that name. but
The whole south district, with Fort Ak
Tcpe. As that fort is the principal mill
Iary point of the district il would have
been well if moro prominehee had been
given 10 it aud less to Penjdeh The
Afehans planted themselves at Ak Tepe
lsst year. Subsequently the Russians
.eized Pul-i-Khisti, or the Brick Bridge,
iilnninr the kushk a few miles from Ak
fepe and leading to the entire Penjdeh
district. The Russians retained this and
rendered the Afghan fort almost untena-
lle. The Russians also claim Chaman-i-
Bed, thirty or forty miles further up the
Knshk. aud are already in possession Of
Ak Robat, another important position
within eighty miles Of Herat. Penjdeh is
yariously estimated 10 be from 100 to 40
miles from Herai. so that before the
hattie reported recently was fought the
Russians yene already a long wayto the
rear ofihe Afghans at Penjdeh.
