Boarding and Boarders.

1t cannot be asked OF those who take people
to board In order to make their own living
that they shall exercise any power of selec-
ton among those who apply to them, except
30 far as their social respectability and finan-
cial solvoncy Gre secure; nor can the ordinary
boarder always confine herself TO her cham
Der IN order to avoid others OF the incuneru-
Gus family whom she does not approve or
like. In this. eS in most other things, the
burden OF life falls moro heavily on women
than on men; for man L. absent ell day ct
his business, and the evening offers to him
thousand ADJUSTMENTS which ere never open
10 single women, nor to the married unless
their husbands choose to indulge them in such
rscreetions
Another argument il favor Of boarding is
that 1t allows women more leisure and re-
heyes them from the cares OF housekeeping

that there is scarcely a roof under

of the most popular and respected

A statement comes from London,

A statement comes from London,
England, to the effect that the pre-
liminary surveys ofa railroad To run
frori Jaffs. on the sea coast in Pales-
tine. to Bethlehem, have just been
completed, and that party of enai
nceTs were to have started from
London last week for the Holy Land
TO lay out the route. A company
has already been formed TO build
the road. in which a number of En-
glish and French bankers are inter
ested From all accounts it is a
purely business enterprise, without
trace of sentiment or religious
fervor. The travel in the Holy Land
of late years has been increasing
steadily, and it is believed If first
class railway Accommodations we're
furnished the number of tourists who
annually visit Jerusalem from all
parts of the earth would soon be
trebled.
This invasion of the Holy
Land as business enterprise, may
have in it deeper significance. 1t
is one of the incomprehensible
things in the history Of christian
ity, that the seat of the inhu-
ences sent out to conquer the
world to Christ, should have passed
to the possession of the followers
of Mahommed, and priest and alter
banished from that land 1t may
be that the returning tide of chris
tianity is about to be manifested in
the country which was hallowed by
the presence of our Saviour, and
that the material agency indicated
above is to be the forerunner to the
restoration of the Holy Land to the
control of the civilization which ema-
mates from the Cross, and is to as
sert its power over all people.

they will ere long be freely using.

corn in about twenty-five days.
Fate seemed against the project; the
rain washed it at one side before it
was rooted so that my faith in its
value was weak. 1t settled so that
besides holding the fodder of seven
acres, the silo took the stalks of two
acres ofpicked corn. / began to feed
forty head of cattle from il Jan /.
The top of the silage didn't please
me, but / believe that corn and husks
cannot be used in any better way to
as good advantage as in silo. En-
