This system does not profess to COM
pete with tramways where the ground
is suitable for such a mode of convey
ance, but the circumstances under which
its advantages are apparent are:
Where the ground is very rough, un-
even or gulchy, or where the gradients
are steep, as it has no difficulty in draw.

tion of the yacht now building to

WELL TREATK0 1TTNKRS-

Some employers of large numbers of work
 naen in France have been conspicuously suc-
 cessful in dealing with stthe labor problem, ?
 and the methods by which they have been
 successful are we'll worth the study of well meaning employers in this or any other coun- try.
 In this country few workers have harder lot than those employed in the coal mines It is interesting to contrast their condition with that of the coal miners in the depart ment of Gard in France. There are in this department twelve mines in which more than twelve thousand men are employed. A re- port which has recently been sent to the State department shows how they are treat ed. Most of the companies have built and maintain on their grounds hospitals, church es and school rooms, open free of charge to the workingmen and their families; medical assistance is also furnished gratis by num- Der of physicians in the service of the com panies, while relief and pension funds have been created, which insure the miner against utter destitution in case illness or old age makes it impossible for him to earn living. These funds are made up of deduction from the wages paid, to which the various compa- nies add an equal amount, and sometimes, besides this, certain percentage of the net profits of the year. The management of the fund is intrusted to a committee of working men elected by their comrades, the chairman being the only member appointed by the company. Fuel is supplied gratis to the miners, and in order to promote prudence among the workingmen the companies re- ceivs their surplus earnings on deposit and allow them g more liberal rate of interest than the national savings banks will give. The companies have also established stores where all the necessities of life are sold to the miners at a very small profit, barely sufficient to cover the cost of management.
 It is not surprising that under this system the miners and their employers in the de- partmeat of Gard get on we'll together. It is 8 pity that there are not more such cases.

A Gentleman,s ssBoudofr.p

lrfoiA tRc Lonoon l9uScnI
 The boudoir, which has been named the 'Lion's DeD," was completed for young Russian nobleman, who, with his tawny beard and leonine grace, and his fondness for Russian sable, recalls "Ouida's" hero. The piece de resistance of the lair was 8 tawny
 lions skin, all the harmonies of color start
 ing from the golden shock of hair and beard
 of the lordly owner. The floor, of light oak
 had wide border of marqueterie work exc
 cuted in graduated shades of horn and bone,
 from an Arabic geometrical design, copied
 from the fragments of a mosque in the South
 Kensington Museum. Some of the larger
 pieces of furniture were also inlaid with this
 exquisite mosaic, the horn ranging in color
 from transparent amber up to the hard and
 ebony black of the antelope's horn. Several of
 the chairs had backs, formed of broad elk
 horns, meeting in graceful curves, holding
 in the centre fur covered cushion. 4 low
 couch of bamboo was covered with cushions
 of tanned deerskins and from under peeped
 pair of Indian moccasins while the hookah
 standing close at hand suggested the dolce
 far nlente of Oriental ease and luxury As
 far as possible the presence of Arabian or
 Moorish architecture was indicated in the
 chief points of the room, in the pointed ar
 ches of the windows and the door frames.
 The curtains across the side and smaller windows were of plush, the tone of the lion skin, and were bordered with soft band of lynx, whose inner glow of color tints harmo- nlzed with the cold high lights and transpar- ent shadows of the silken fabric. The chains that held them back were strange combina- tion of ivory and dead antique silver, with an occasional gleam of turquoise and coral, so affected by the Arabs in their fligree work. The large portiere screening the r0roto orfro ria- .uhi oI swung from a carved Moorish lattice-work, was of the same fur -bordered plush, and was clutched back with bizarre effect by e small golden brown monkey with long silken hair, hfelike and eerie in it's attitude.
 The keynote being the lion skin, all the colering of the room was in delicate relation with it's various tones, so harmonized that nothing was conspicuous or violent. We are familiar with the sight of white bearskin spread out in vulgar flash, which tho up- holste1er calls effective, on dark Oriental carpet, the harsh contrast destroying the delicate tone of the one and the rich depth of the other, ,subordinating all points to spot of white on 8 field of black. As we approach the larger window, which is in a recess the har- monies become more delicate and tender l This recess is eurtained with soft ivory tint l ed Indian gauge, bordered with anarrow fringe like band of fox skin. Within the alcoYe the l entire effect is of white eff different degrees here exquisite cast of Diana, there an l ivory cabinet, and the coup de grace, mag nifcent white bearskin. A low chair, cover 1 ed with otter, invited to smoke.

Every business difficulty is referred to the
 guild for arbitration, and any member who
 suffers unjust oppression or extertion re-
 ceives the prompt aid of the organization to

 millions of money and fleets of vessels at their command, are subject, no less than the natives, to the influences of these great or Ranizations. They cannot anywhere in China fix the prices they will pay for tea, or silks, or other articles of export, but must submit to the prices and terms of the guilds, whose object it is, in years of varying plenty or scarcity of crops, to fix rates which shall enable producers to live. No native mer- chant may sell even 6 chest of tea for e1- port, unless under guild regulations and guild prices.

 The average duration of life has been made the subject of fresh investigation by Ger man statistician, who finds that the lowest average is for the day laborer (thirty-two years), and the highest among those who en- gage in manual toil is among the gardeners, sailors and fishermen, ffty-eight years. The professional occupations come even above regular open air occupations, as the averages given show forty-nins years for physicians, fifty four for jurists, ffty-seven for teachers and sixty-seven for clsrgymen.

"The powers which guide the operations of these guilds" writes Consul Seymour, fare invisible and silent, but when the occasion calls for prompt and decisive action all the wheels in the machiney of the guild concerned stop or move as if an electric touch of some control ling force had simultaneously communicated to every member of the guild an edict which is received and obeyed with utmost ob =dience as if each one's existence depended upon the combined action of al. :"
