Egypt's Debts.

Egyptian finances still continue to
monopolize public attention in Europe,
and will, in all probability. continue to
do so for months, if not for years. to
come. For years past Egypt has been
unable to pay her debts without Dor
rowing money. She has borrowed
largely and mortgaged her income to
her creditors. Hence her present diff.
culties. If Europe had not come to
her assistance she would within the
next two or three weeks become bank
rupt, and the bondholders would have
to go short. But Europe has now
backed up the bondholders by advanc-
ing $3.50 900 at b per cent. interest,
which Egypt, in addition to all her
other liabilities, will have to pay. AS
most of the $40, 900, 900 of indebted
ness has been brought about by British
interference, Great Britain should in
justice pay the money; or, at least, that
country should pay the 1875, 600, 900
which is to be paid in the shape of in
IDENTITIES for property destroyed by
the bombardment of Alexandria.
That bombardment was purely an
English act. The Admiral who direct
ed the bombardment has been made a
peer and presented with a magnificent
reward for his services. But Egypt

the piper to the tune of some ST, $780,

pally tied around the neck of the old
mother of the worlds civilization by
British hands.

Biography WRITING.

Those who have attained a measure
OF reputation which justities a bog
raphy, are entitled to treatment of q
reasonable and discriminating kind,
1t is not necessary and it is not proper
that their private papers should be
ransacked for piquant details of their
intercourse with friends and acquaint-
ances, or that all the fippant and de-
rogatory observations of envious con-
tempories should be repeated against
them. They have a right to Justice
not only, but also to a certain degree
of charity. By the act of becoming
noted, they do. not authorize ready
liberty to be taken with their personal
records. 1t is the duty of the bioera-
pher to sift all the facts carefully, and
exercise a sound discretion as to what
belongs to the public and what is O
of the public's business, and this duty
he owes not less to his audience than
to his subject. The best biographies
are not those which go into minute
particulars, and follow the theory that
everything should be told, leaving the
reader to do his own discriminating
and to pass his own judgments. To
tell the story of a great mans life in a
fair, correct and impressive manner.
it is quite as essential to leave certain
things out as it is to put certain things

Napoleon l. and His Travelling Libraries.

The Academy.
Many Of Napoleon's biographers
have incidentally mentioned that he,
like one of them On. Thiers), used to
carry about a certain number of favor
lite books wherever he went, whether
travelling or campaigning; but it is not
generally known that he made several
plans for the construction of portable
Libraries which were to form part of
his baggage. Some interesting infor-
nation upon this head is given us by
Nj. Louis Barber, who for many years
had the carr of the Louvre Library,
and who bases his information upon
some memoirs left by his father, who
was librarian to Napoleon himself.
For a long time Napoleon used to car
ry about the books he required in sew
eral boxes holding about sixty volumes
each. These volumes, which were
either octave or duoAecimo, stood
upon shelves inside the boxes, which
were supplied by the we'll known cabi-
netmaker, Jacob. They we're made of
mahogany %attirst, but as it was found
that this was not strong enough for
the knocking about they had to 5
tain, M. Babier had them made of oak
and covered with leather. The inside
was lined with green leather or velvet,
and the books bound in morocco.
There was a catalogue for each case,
with a corresponding number upon
each volume, so that there was never
a moments delay in picking out any
book that was wanted. AS soon as the
editor had selected his headquarters
during a campaign these cases were
placed in the room which was intend
ed to be his study, together with the
portfolios and maps. In course of
time, however, Napoleon found that
many books which he wanted to con,
suit were not included in the %collec-
ton, and upon inquiring the reason
was informed that they would lot fit
into the eases. This, of course. was
an answer which did not satisfy one SO
impe:ions, and, while res ding at Bay
onne in 1906, he dictated the following
memoir, which was sent to M. Barber:
~"Bayonne. July II, 1903. The Empe-
ror wishes to form a travelling library
OF 1000 in small 12mo and printed in
handsome type. 1t is his Majesty's in
tention to have these works printed
for his special use, and in order to
economic space there is to be nc mar
gin to them. They should conta n 500
or 600 pages and be bound in covers as
flexible as possible and with spring
backs. There should be forty works
on religion, forty dramatic works,
forty volumes of epic and sixty of other
poetry, one hundred novels, and sixty
volumes of history, the remainder be.
ing historical memoirs of every per.
iod."

The Sandal Wood Of Japan.
Cor. Chicago Times.

Passing by a shop you see cords OF
wood cut INTO small blocks about six
inches long. This you learn is nothing
short of shoe-timber. These cords Of
wood will speedily be converted into
shoes of var Gus sizes, at prices rang.
ing all the way from 4 to 20 cents.
One feels quite exalted in a pair of &c
cent shoes. The wood is called kiri,
and is very light. The clogs are still
further lightened by following out the
center. So, in point of fact, there is
little truth in calling the shoes heavy,
although they appear so to the inexpe-
rienced observer. 1t must be admit
ted. though, they are u~nreasonably
clumsy. Sometimes the shoes worn
by the ladies are lacquered, and are
fastened by a velvet band passing from
either side W the lower part Of the
instep, and between the first and sec
ond toes. With this same kind of
wood is made bureaus provided with
strong iron handles, and the whole box
is adjustable in horizontal sections,
one piled above another. Owing to
the lightness Of the wood these boxes
may be filled with clothing and carried
OF on the shoulders of the coolie in
Vs. of fires, which so often vex the
people of Toxic.

The Merit OF Lord Bacon.

1t would heap too much honor upon
Lord Bacon should he prove to be the
author of the Shakespeare plays. But
such an extra award would carry out
the scriptural "To him that hath shall
be given" while from such a poor
deer-stalker as William Shakespeare
shall be taken away what little he
seemed to have.
But Bacon even if he was a dramat-
list did more as a philosopher than as
a dramatist, for his philosophy has
helped to make a great world while
the plays have helped to make only a
great stage. And yet the real truth is
that 40 one man composed either the
Baconian philosophy or the Shakesper-
ian plays. They we're both the slowcom-
ing results of a long past. In Bacon
and Shakespear the philosophy and
the drama reached a final climax and
became ready for a large service. The
plays are found far back of Shake
speare aud the philosophy far back of
Bacon.
Bacon's merit lies in the fact that
he called the attention o: scholars and
thinkers to the value of earth and mate
rial sciences; and urged them to gather
up terrestrial data instead of trans
cendental data and instead of seeking
definitions Of '.mind," "soul,h
''angel,'' awill," fate" s.man,''
''horse" and ''eternity," these thinking
leaders should gather up all informa-
ton possible about the soils, grains,
winds, rains, instruments, machines,
arts, and appliances of society, and
then draw conclusions that would
compel a general advance. Open any
of the great books of the old world
and there is ar amazing omission of
the domestic arts and sciences and a
wonderful attention to things moral,
imaginary, fanciful, romantic, and
fantastic. Angels, imps, nymphs,
large and small deitles, dwarfs, giants
and ghosts are born out of the fertile
human fancy as sparks rise from a
shaken fire, but in these thousands of
years nc thinking mind touches pillow
or reaping knife Or any implement to
make it do more good and with less
labor. The ground is plowed with a
crooked stick, the harvest is cut with
a case-knife; and while women and
children are reaping, and thrashing

The Lord Was Driving.
Bloomington Eye.

Bloomington Eye.
One of the prettiest cenceits in Mr..
Harris CUncle Remus) new book is
put into the mouth of an old negro
driver. He had run away from his
master and could not be caught; but
an old lady bought him, because he
had saved the life of her son, and he
surrendered himself and became q
faithful servant. When his old mis-
tress came to die her wandering mind
dwelt upon the negro who had served
her so faithfully. She fancied she
was making a journey. THE carriage
goes smoothly along here,' she said.
Then after a little pause, she asked:
SIS David driving9" and the weeping
negro cried out from a r of the
room: "'Taint po' Dave, mistr'ss 50! De
good Lord done TUX holt er de lines"
And so, dreaming as a little child
would dream, the old lady slipped
from life into the b%eatitudes, if the
smiles of the dead mean anything.

Birds and Their Feathers.

Magazine OF Art for June.
The best time for seing perfect feath-
ering is in the winter, or onward to
the spring; then after a very short hon
eymoon, the birds settle down to do
nestle drudgery with exemplary ar
dor. with the result that at the end of a
few weeks their tail feathers are rough
and irregular, their pinions worn and
ragged from constant contact with the
ninest sitting; and by the time their
new suit comes at midsummer, they
are more than ready for it. The
spring, of course, is the climax of a
birds life. With scrupulous care he
arranges hourly his feathers, all their
markings are seen to perfection, and
many pecnliaritics of decoration are
then and then alone displayed. The
fieshy combs and protuberances be-
comk scarlet and enlarged, and any
one who has not seen a pheasant or
cock grouse at this season of love
would be astonished at the alteration
from his normal state. The cock pig
con swells that part of his body most
adorned with iridesdent feathers to
make the grandest show he can; and
every humble finch and small bird
brushes up his modest finery. 1t is
said that not a single bright colored
feather on any birds body is left idle
or undisplayed. If birds have bright
colored tails, they raise them to their
highest and fullest and abase their
heads; if bright heads, then they shake
out their plumes, their eye distends,
and their wattles swell; and if, as in
some cases, they have large tippets of
feathers falling on both sides of the

 by the rummies as in favor of the fullest
 liberty to sell rum, rob drunken men, and decoy youth into the hellish traps set for their ruin A large percentage of those who vote for license, do so because, as they say, rum will be sold anyway, and the town treasury might as well get the benefit of it, though claiming themselves to be opposed to the rum traffic. Another class believe in licensing few-say drug gists and hotels only But whatever your motive, your vote for license, if carried, is construed to mean unlimited licensing of every interruptions man who applies, and it is fact that those who apply for saloon licenses are, usually, those most unfit for the business, most interruptions in their methods of selling, and invariably those who break laws and perjure themselves, when the public sentiment is by vote ex- pressed for no license.

RlLI0uSNESS.

Bilious symptoms invariably arise from indigestion, such as furred tongue, vomiting of bile, giddiness, sick headache, ir- regular bowels. The liver se- cretes the bile and acts like a filter or sieve, to cleanse impu- rites of the blood. By irregu- larity in its action or suspen- sions of it's functions, the bile is liable to overflow into the blood, causingjaundice sallow complexion, yellow eyes, bil- ious diarrh@a, a.! languid, weary feeling and many other distressing symptoms. Bilious ness may be properly termed an affection of the liver, and can be thoroughly cured by the grand regulator of the liver and biliary organs, BURDOCK BLOOD BITTERS. It acts upon the stomach, bowels and liver, making healthy bile and pure blood, and opens the culvertS and sluiceways for the outlet of disease. Sold everywhere and guaranteed to cure.
