RUssIA's REAL PURPOSE.

There is every reason to believe that
Russia in advancing her Afghan frontier
has no real intention Of pushing any nearer
to British possessions in India. With
Herat and the passes of the Paropamisus
ranges in her possession she will he suf-
ficicntly near to India to check by coun =
ter assault any effort on the part of Eng
land to prevent Russia establishing her
seat at Constantinople That this is her
ultimate aim is scarcely to be doubted
Rawlinson believes this to be her inten
ton, and her present push southwark to
mean precisely that. Skobelef in his life
time made no secret of this ambition on
the part of his country. Marvin is of this
belief, in part. but insists that Russia's
progress will not be stay ed at Herat ex-
cept by opposing arms A month ago he
warned England that if she permitted the
frontier question to ''simmer" until Rus
STA massed at Sarallhs and Merry and the
gates of Herat, more powerful army than
Lumsden and the Afghans control for the
defense of the Key Of India, she would
suddenly throw off the mask and deny the
right of England to garrison Herat. What
he prophesied has, practically, come to
pass. in fact Marvin, as a prophetic es-
sayist on the Central Asian question, has
achieved remarkable distinction, and when
his views regarding the possible Russian
occupation of Armenia and Constanti-
nople is taken into account with his fore
cast Of the present situation, fortified as
these views are by reason, we may regard
him as specially gifted in fathoming the
stragetic purposes of the Cars Govern
ment.

A Crazy Car caturist.

Poor Andre Gill, the great French carl
caturist, who died recently, was for some
years confined in a lunatic asylum, and
while there he contributed to La Nou-
velle Lune two most horrible sketches.
One was portrait of himself in his mad
ness. The other represented himself in
chains, covering on the floor of his cell,
while above him, as if seen in vision,
were a man and woman carousing, and a
banker offering him two huge bags of
gold These sketches were masterpieces

asylum, supposed to be cured He i'm

Peculiar VIII, els fer Maui S.

Two novel sulky wheels have been
made in Center street shop for the use
of Mr. Robert Bonner. The new wheel
has a slender rim of cast steel, from
which eight thin Tugs project in at regular
intervals toward the center. Thin strips
of steel connect the alternate Tugs, thus
describing two squares within the circle.
Each strip is a cord which strengthens
the arch of segment of the circle opposite
it. Slender steel wires run from each lug
to the hub which is thus suspended in
the center, its weight and the weight of
the axle being suspended from the upper
arch of the wheel instead of resting
through thick spokes on the under arch.
The weight of this wheel is all in the rim,
and its strength is great in proportion to
the quantity of metal used. Two wheels
made for Mr.. Bonner cost $500. They
are expected to lower the record of a
horse at least one second

Choice of Occupation.

Much is said in writings for youth as
to the importance of choosing such an oc
cupation for life as natures inclinations
aDnear to favor; and in some instances re-
sort has been made to professional head
and face readers to indicate the line to
which the uniformed mind should be di-
rected. But it is often the fact that even
a thinking and sensible boy is unaware of
any decisive "call" to particular pursuit.
Much of this indecision probably comes
from the fact that the call for choice oc-
ours at about the time in years and de-
velOpment when the subiec is untitled to
make a choice-"not a man. nor a boy,
but hobbledehoy, as an old saw has it.
1t is foolish to strike out map out,
or "arrannge" for boys future calling by
means of his expressed desire at the cal
low age; the boy will naturally gravitate
to his proper line if the circumstances do
not hinder-if those who have to deal
with him do not interfere. 1t is not diff
cult to ascertain if there is "bent" in the
boys inclination If it is decided, then
the influences and circumstances should
be brought to bear in that direction.
Many make mistakes because they did not
early mistakes extend through the
lifetime; but Eurritt was fair black
smith, Collyer was good one, Lincoln
was a good rail splitter. and Johnson was
a good tailor 1t would be assumptive to
to say that the course of these men would
have been better if at the beginning they
had become linguists, preachers. states
men. and presidents. Perhaps it was bet
ter that they were what they were at the
beginning
If there is any moral to facts, as to
fables, it might be that the best thing an
ambitious young man can do is to do the
first thing that comes to him, the first
thing he can reach by going for it, and
watch and wait opportunities for better
fhinps
