A VAST CAMP.-The German GOV
ernrnent, as indicated by Count Won
MOltke's speech in the ReichstdG.
desires to maintain the present enor-
nous military expenditure of that en-
pire. The indications are that the
ReichstGg will be requested to renew
for seven years the existing estimates.
On its present peace footing the Ger
man army consists of 1877 ,274 men and
1918 officers. On a war footing. for
which the estimates are always made.
the army proper would consist of l.
456,6H men 5,69S officers, served also
by 3l2,731 horse. and 2,S0S guns In
addition to this great force there is the
landsturm, or military reserves. The
policy of Germany forces the mainte-
nance of great armies by all the other
continental powers. Europe is vast
camp. France maintains an army of
half a million, which in war can be in
creased to three and three-quarters
millions of men. Russia has a peace
army of 100000 and can put 2.30O.OOO
into the field. Austria maintains one
OF 2SO,OOO, and can increase it to over
one million of men. Turkey, Greece.
ROumania and Bulgaria have nearly a
million of trained men among them.
Italy maintains a regular army of 17O,:
600 men, and can put in the field nearly
two million of fighters keeping a per-
manent organization of 100000 fighters.
There is under arms or on call for SER
vice in the east of Europe, at least one
million more. The attitude of Ger
many is the key to all this vast arma-
ment. Her central position and pow
erful character make this the case

tbs whispered in the corridors of the
Interior Department that Mr. Lamar
intends this spring to have his hair cut
short. HE has always worn long
hair" said an ex-COnfederate officer.
II remember seeing him when colo
mel, riding into battle with those long
locks lying back on hisstout shoulders.
1t has always been a mystery to me
why he did not have himself shorn oc-
casiOnally. Once he did, though not in
tentiOnally. In 1876, when he was in
St. Louis, he went into a barber's,
flung himself down in chair and told
the Senegambian ascendant to trim his
hair and beard. The secretary fell in
to one of his characteristic fiCs of alb
straction and the shears kept at their
work until Mr.. Lamar looked like
another man. He was fearfully mad
about it when he got out and discov-
cred what had been done He did not
know anything about il in the barber
shop, but met an old friend on the
street, who told him of the change in
his appearance"

" Society" In Lent.
WHAT IS THE REAL SUPREME BEING
OF A CERTAIN CLASS.

To a foreigner unfamiliar with the
institutions, and more especially with
the religio, social institutions of this
country, the Oncoming of Lent would
present some very queer phenOma. He
would observe that 'society"-uhat So
ciety whose dOings are daily chroni-
cled in the newspapers-after q series
of receptions, balls, dances and the
like, suddenly stops all these, and di-
verts its attention to morning lectures
on Greek history and mythology and
on art, to madrigal clubs and musicales,
to luncheon parties and kaffee
klatsches, to Lenten riding clubs and
little excursions, and to the prepara-
tiOn and acting of parlor plays.
Our foreigner, on being informed that
the observance of Lent is considered a
religious duty, might very justly infer
that whereas dancing all night is ire
ligous, acting in parlor plays and eat
ing lunches in parties of a dozen must
be religious ceremonies of some sort.
In fact, if he should simply observe the
phenomena presented and draw his
conclusions as to the religion of society
from them, he would have a very queer
ANStt VI WutAG / SlOu COuSlSlS III.
Should he push his inquiries further,
however, he might possibly find out
that religion has some connection with
churches and, if acting on this new
idea, he should apply to the spiritual
directors of society for information, he
would discover that Lent is, in theory,
a season of fasting and prayer; that
society is supposed to believe in Su-
preme being, to worship is due, and in
a future life which is to be spent for
ever in communion with this Being.
An inquiry as to whether that future is
to include Kaffee Klatsches, luncheons,
! amateur theatricals, and the like,
would perhaps astOund the good minis.
| ters whose churches society attends
but would it not be natural? If Lent
is especially season of preparation for
the future life, would it not be reason
able for logical barbarian to infer
that its occupations must naturally
bear some reference to that life?
A contemplation Of his puzzlne
enigma might perhaps eventually lead
our barbarian to doubt whether society
does really believe in a Supreme Being
and future life, and to come to the
conclusion after all, that to all intents
and purposes, the real Supreme Being
Of society is society itself and and its
real worship an unending succession OF
social gatherings, to which only the
''best people" are admitted. Mail and

The PROPER WAY TO LICK A STAMP.
The average ingenuity of the hu-
man family" said a retail stamp clerk
at the post Office, must be very small.
Why, there is not one person in 500
who has gumption enough to put a
a stamp on a letter. | see the process
gone through with about a thousand
times a day, and l ought to know. All
the people at my window begin by put
ting the stamps in their mouths, rolling
their eyes like man trying to swallow
pill, and moving the stamps around
in their months until they are perfectly
saturated with saliva. They then Law
them on the corner Of the envelopes
and bring their clenched fists down on
them like pile driver Then comes
the profanity. See here, clerk they
say, this stamp is no account. Won't
you please put little mucilage on it q?
So strange that they cant put enough
mucllage on the stamps to make them
stick Now, the trouble is that these
people lick and chew all the gum off
the stamp before they try to affix it {;
and if the gum were an inch thick, it
would meet with the same fate. The
way they to put II stamp on is to
moisten the gum very slightly, and
then lay it on the envelope, and with
the end of the forefnger slip it back
and forwards once or twice until
the saliva and gum are mixed. l have
been licking stamps for forty years, but
l have never met with one which would
not adhere if it was treated in this
way.-ChicdgO Journal.

The CHEsTERTOwN STRAw-BOARD
MILL.-The strawboaTd mill has been
leased to Mr.. Wilbur Eliason for a pc
riod of ten years. Mr.. Eliason expects
to take immediate steps toward putting
the building and machinery in proper
order. He will make some necessary
changes in the mill and will introduce
new and improved machinery that will
very much increase the daily capacity.
Instead of the wooden tubs in which
straw was formerly boiled, no will in
troduce rotary boilers, by which the
process of preparing the straw will be-
come much more rapid. He believes
that the mill can be made, by some adj
ditional outlay, to produce pretty
nearly twice the daily yield without
any additional labor. The former yield
of the mill, in finished board, was a
little over five tons per day. It is ex-
pected that with the alterations and
improvements the daily product will be
something like ten tons. 1t is expected
the mill will begin work in August

A DOG THAT COULD TELL THE TIME
OF DAY.--An old farmer from AmbOy,
OswegO county, took great interest in
the trained dogs which appeared at the
! Grand Opera House this week. IL
used to have a dog which was the most
knowing and intellectual dog you ever
saw. He could tell what time it was by
the clock just as well as / could. He
would run into the house in the after
noon without saying word to any
body and look up at the clock, and if it
wasn't 5.15 he'd 90 off about his bust
ness. Then he'd come back again and
start for the COWS. Once my woman
thought she'd see if the dog could be
fooled, and at l o'clock in the after
noon she turned the clock to 5. The
dog came in, looked indifferently at
the clock, stopped, shook his head, and
then ran out to look at the sun. He
came back again, squatted down, and
eyed the clock as if he were waiting
for a rat. When the minute hand got
around to quarter past he started off as
usual, and before we could stop him he
had all them cows up in the barnvard
l drove them back, and a more mOrti-
fed person you never see than that
dog. He ran into the house, but the
woman had turned the hands back to
the true time. The dog jumped up at
the clock and acted as if lie wanted to
tear that clock to pieces. He always
seemed to distrust the dumb thing after
that"
