Remarkable Rivers.

Among the worlds natural curiosi-
ties are several rivers, each of which
has some positively unique Characters
tics. In Algeria, for instance, there is
a small stream which the chemistry of
nature has turned into true ink. II is
formed by the union of two rivulets,
one of which is very strongly impreg-
mated with iron, while the other, me-
andering through great peat marsh,
imbibes gallo acid. Letters have been
written with this compound of iron and
gallo acid which unite to form the lit
tie river. In Colombia there is a river
which, by admixture with sulphuric
acid, becomes so sour that it is appro-
priately named Rio de Vinagre, or
Vinegar river. Many varieties of fish
abound in the large Orange river of
South Africa until the river passes
through rocky region containing cop
per ores, below which the water is
said to be poisonous and to kill the
fish that venture into it. "China's
Sorrow" is the name that has been
given to the great Hoang-Ho, which
rises in the mountains of Thibet and
follows a wonderfully circuitous chan
mel for $500 miles to the sea. The
waywardness of this mighty volume of
water makes the river a constant source
of anxiety and danger, instead of
wealth, to 10000, 900 of people inhab-
iting the central plain of China. 1t is
known TO have suddenly changed its
course nine times. 1t has moved its
mouth over four degrees of latitude,
each time emptying its vast floods in
different directions and digging new
channel for itself where scores of vii
lagos had stood. 1t has greatly changed
the physical character of a wide area,
turning fertile regions into sandy waste,
or making shallow lakes of them, in
which nothing grows and over which
nothing can sail. Whether it is within
the power of western science to save
this great plain from disastrous over
flows and changes of the river bed is a
question that has been considerably
discussed in England of late years.

Something About Chinese.

Chinese is queer language. All its
words are only one syllable long. But
the sounds in the Chinese language are
not very many-some four hundred
siXty-fve at most-and their written
language contains about eighty thou
sand pictures, each picture represent
ing a thing or idea. And these pictures
must be committed to memory. This
is hard work, and not even the wisest
Chinese professor can learn them all.
But now comes difficulty. For of
course where there are so many words
and so few sounds many different
words have to be called by the same
sound. How then are they to tell,
when several different things have ex-
actly the same name, which of them is
meant? We have such words. For
instance, there is Bill, the name of a
boy; and bill, the beak of bird; there
is bill, an old weapon, and bill, piece
of money; there is bill, an article over
which legislatures debate, and bill, a
claim for payment of money; besides
bills of exchange, bills of lading, and so
forth. But Chinese is full of such
words of a single syllable, gen, for in
stance, which, like bill, means many
very different things. So they chose
number of little pictures, and agreed
that these should be used as "keys."
Each "key" meant that the sign or
signs near which it stood belonged to
some large general set of things, like
things of the vegetable, mineral or
animal kingdom, forests, mines, or
seas, air or water, or of persons, like
gods or men. 1t was like the game
called Throwing Light, in which. you
guess the article by narrowing down
the field until certain what it is. But
there Chinese writing stopped short,
thousands of years ago. There it is
to-day. There are now two hundred
fourteen of these keys and, by in
tense application, Cinnamon learn to
use their method with surprising quick
ness and success.-Henry Eckford, IN
st. Nicholas.

Poverty i'm Germany.

A Massachusetts young man, now in
Germany as a student, writes home of
the distressing poverty which he sees
in Germany, of the way women have to
work to keep their little ones from
starving; that they are glad to do
mans work, but cannot always find it
to do, and in that case they must beg;
that women bear heavy burdens of prod
duce to market, and, in addition to the
load on their backs, is frequently nurs-
ing babe in their arms; and he adds:
"The question arises, Where's the
father? Most likely in some beer
garden, with mug of beer before him,
without thought of the hungry mother
and child, who are wandering through
the dark and narrow streets crying for
bread" He says: Everybody drinks
beer in Germany, even the clergy, and
L do not care to associate with any of
the young men, as the great and all
important question with them is: Where
is the best beer sold? There
is no home sociability here. What So
liability there is is found in the restau-
rants, where women and children, high
and low, meet together, and the chill
uicn lodl Ii W uIllh pelore lucy ledru W
walk" Again he says: "I have be-
come convinced that it is the temper
ance principle that makes the homes of
America the happy, prosperous homes
which so many of them are, and that
the intemperance of German makes
German homes what they are" And
yet the brewers of America would, if
they could, transform the American
into the German type of home life, and
have everybody here, as in Germany
drink beer.-National Temperance Id

A Ragged Pair.

He stood in fierce despair-gaunt, hollow-eyed
with murder whispering in his tortured ear,
No work. His baby's cry broke down his pride,
His sick wife's pleading brought the horror near.
They heard his tale and carelessy they threw
golden coin. as If they thought the sting
That drove his soul crimes hated portals through
Would weaken at the moneys golden ring
His thin face settled In hateful frown;
The sneering charity unheeded lay;
They who had idly crushed his manhood down
VIII wonder at his dark revenge some day
man with coat as ragged rs his own
Held out a hand and spoke brave words OF cheer,
And lo The dark stern face has gentler grown
And in the hollow eye there shines a tear
Forgotten are the hdeous thoughts that filled
His soul; the way seemed brighter than before,
newer courage all his life has thrilled
And thrown CLEAN of sunshine through Hopes
door.
He gives the most who bravely lends hand
TO help his brother in the hour of need,
God keeps the record-he can understand
And of our slightest service will take heed

Business Signs.

The tailor, when he has finished a
new coat, places it where it may be seen
by the greatest number of customers !;
when the shoemaker has finished first
class pair of boots, he places them in
his window, because the exhibition
tends to increase his trade. With the
liquor-seller it is quite different. He
is ashamed of his finished work. With
him the raw material is always worth
more than the finished article. Were
he to exhibit that, he would lose his
trade. No wonder he is ashamed to ex-
hibit his work. A truthful sign-board
would read: Delirium tremens, fever,
disease, pauperism, crime, redness of
eye, wounds without cause, wretched-
ness, despair and death for sale here."-

Various Interesting Items from the
COnsul's Reports.

1t is singular fact in regard to the
immigrants to the Argentine republic
that they can never become naturalized,
and hence take no part in politics or
in the government of the nation. There
is not in the whole republic of Bolivia
what may be properly called manu-
factory. There is not single factory
run by either steam or water. The
Bolivian trade with the United States
virtually amounts to zero. Gold is
abundantly spread in the provinces of
Quebec, and yet, up to the present, its
production has not become one of the
industries of the country. American
carriages are imported in Ceylon for
private use, and the government uses
American headlights on its locomotives.
The Ceylonese use American cotton
gins, rice-hullers, stencil combinations,
coffee-hullers, steel barb fencing, safes,
rifles and revolvers, saws and locks,
canned goods, sewing machines and
type-writers. The average daily wages
of an agricultural laborer, finding his
own food, in Denmark, is thirty-five
cents day. The factory of Messrs
Louis Freres Bordeaux has an aver
age weekly production of 1000 pounds
of chocolate. The growing of tobacco
in Germany is on the decline. Russia
has adopted the American railway sys-
tenn and has equipped her railways with
American rolling stock. There is prob
ably no country in Europe where so
great an effort is made to satisfy the
demands of the working classes as in
Switzerland. The canton of Basic city
now buries all its residents free, the OBJ
ject being to save the poorer members
of the community from experiencing
the poignant distress hitherto incident
to the death and burial of one of their
family

Jamaica and Central America among
the poorer people it supplies the place
