William ILL.,, King of the Netherlands,
has been declared incapable of perform
ing his functions as sovereign, and is
thus practically dethroncd but this action
perhaps anticipates his death by very
short time, for though his Majesty is only
seventy-two years old, he has exhausted
the vital possibilities of an ordinary hui
man system. At last accounts, he was
somewhat Improved in health.
King William was twice married His
first wife was Sophia, daughter of the
King of Wurtemberg. His two sons by
that marriage are both dead. Tn january,
1879, William married Emma Adelaide
Wilhclmine Tlicresc, daughter of the
Prince Of Waldcck and Pyrmont. She
was then twenty-onc. Her daughter and
only child, Wilhelmine, was born in 1880.
This daughter will succeed to the throne
If she lives, and in the mean time re-
gcncy WILDE formed.

The Hebrews, Egyptians, Chinese and

lived in the second century b. c., makes
one of his characters speak of the fan as
used by ladies in ancient Rome: "Take

From this Roman origin the fashion OF
carrying fans was handed down to the
ladies of Italy, Spain and France and
thence introduced into Britain. Queen
Elizabeth when in full dress carried fan.
Shakespeare speaks of fans as connected
with lady's bravery and finery:

The French have tried the Spitz dog
for similar service, but with Indifferent
success. lie lacks courage, and while
very bright he does not possess the grit
and self-control of the German shepherd
dog. His color, which is milk white, is
also against him, for he can be very cas-
lily seen at night. Oddly enough these
German dogs take kindly to beer. a Ber-
lin paper tells of a dog belonging to an
officer ola North German regiment which
takes his beer regularly, and to such
success, whenever enough is offered him,
as to become exceedingly hilarious.
When he and his master go out for a
good time they return in u state of hearty
good fellowship and intoxication. Beer
being the national beverage the dogs are
offered more or less of it in every house
hold, until they find it quite as satisfying
as water.
Some years ago these dogs were i'm
ported into Australia in large numbers,
where they are used as couriers in the
great bush. They rarely get lost, and
are above the temptations to which most
dogs are subject in the woods where game
is plentiful
The Newfoundland dog would prob
ably prove as adaptable to military pur-
poses as any other breed that is common
in America. His uneven temper might
hopelessly disqualify him for the work,
but why not give him trial2 At forts

from your cheek the troubled tear; she

watched over and nursed you with a
tender care known only to u mother;
she has sympathized with you in ad-

success. You may be despised by all
around you, yet that loving mother
stands as an apologist for all your
shortcomings. With all that disinter-
ested affection, would it not be migrate
