Warmth of Drained Soil.

The curious paradox is presented in
UNDERWRITING land that it freezes more
deeply in winter, but so soon as spring
comes it rapidly grows warmer than
land not drained. There are rnch
greater extremes of temperature. and
both heat and cold favor the disintaore
ton OF the soil and the developmenf Of
plant food. In well-drained land there
IS no surplus of water beyond what the
sou VIII naturally retain. Its freezing
therefore, does not make a solid strat,T,,
OF ice and when it thaws the water
pereoianng to the tiles is followed bv
AIR which in spring is always warmer
man the soil: At night when the sur
race freezes the expansion of the soil
expds the air, which is replaced on the
morrow when the sun is shining brightly
ee3gnant water in the soil prevents the
SIfcularlon OF air, and thus keens dow,
Lne temperature until the water Is orad-
0aiIy dried out by the heat of the Sun

ENORMOUS FORTUNES.

wealthy Men In the United States, En-
gland and on the Continent.
Free England and democratic Amer
lea lead the rest of the world in very
rich men. The free play of modern in
dustries and the absence of paternal
government favor the growth of enor-
nous fortunes in the English-speaking
countries. Outside of the few Jewish
bankers, such as the Rothschilds, and
Herr Krupp, the great gun-maker, there
are very few millionaires on the CONT
nent of Europe. In Prussia, Herr
Krupp has an income of 5000, 600
marks, about 81, 250, 900 of our money,
on which he pays $S7, 900 tax to the
government. Next comes Baron Roths-
child of Frankfort, with about $3.50, 900,
and Baron Bleichreder, whose income
is about 100000. There are only two
other Prussians with an income over
$500, 900. We beat the world in mil
iOnaires. This is accounted for by the
fact that on the continent the rail-
roads and telegraph are owned mainly
by the government, and the profits on
transportation accrue to the benefit of
the National treasures. In the United
States the railroads and telegraph are
in private hands, and the manipulation
OF their stocks, as well as the profits of
the business, goes to pile up the enor-
nous fortunes of our Jay Goulds, Van
derbilts, Stanfords, Huntingtons, Sages,
not to mention the hundreds of others
who have become millionaires as the
result of manipulation in the stocks Of
corporations. 1t may be worthy of
note, in passing, that wealthy real es-
tate owners, outside of the Astor family,
are not very common in this country.
Our laws provide for the breaking up
Of great estates upon the death of the
head of the house, and this puts a
check TO accumulations of landed
wealth in few hands But personal
property, in the form of the ownership
OF shares in corporations, can be better
kept together in this country, and it
will be noticed that in the wills of Com
modore Vanderbilt and his son, Will
lam H., provision was made for con-
centrating the wealth on one or two of
the heirs. The Astor estate in New
York has been held together, it is be-
heved, by an evasion of the law regu-
laClng the discount of bonded property.
But the time must come when it viii

In conversation with friend of Mrs. Shaw
the reporter learned that an observation of
the lady's palate discloses long. narrow,
tube like vault, a popularity shared by all
prominent vocalists. Her naturally long,
slender waist developing into bust, chest
and shoulders Of charming symmetry affords
exceptional capacity for sustained and easy
breathing. She has quick ear for the in
tricacies of sound and reads readily at sight,
and finds that what is once learned she never
forgets.
She experienced at first that difficulty SO
troublesome TO the player upon brass instru-
ments-the flabby emhouchure Her chest
from bust to throat and shoulder to shoulder
has become wonderfully developed, and is
unusually firm to the touch She cannot
whistle on an empty stomach nor bear the
least construction about the waist, yet with
out corset she could not whistle Mt all
Her throat must be loosely dressed, and she
finds considerable increase in the fullness of
neck. One advantage Mrs. Shaw shares with
no whistler, amateur or professional is that
of looking at her very best while she whistles.
Her face remains absolutely free from con-

The Neuesten Nachrichten aus dem Morcen-
land, a German newspaper published in Pal
estlne, states that the city of Jerusalem is
growing in size and population at remark
