"I will 60 u,.n said the Doctor.

Will 20 up, saiu the DOctOr. As
you say. I .nay do some good"
Good heavens!" said the Doctor to
himself. as he rode away. what an es-
cape l havemade. To think that there
should be such people in the world.
Poor and proud Poor and proud I!
That, l suppose, is the wdlole story.
To keep up appeara ices they let their
own flesh and blood die of starvation.
The last time made morning call at
the Whitbys, Miss Clara was sitting in
the drawing room, in costly slippers
and morning dress, dawdling over a
novel. What shams they are. It is
clear, too, that the heartless indiffer-
ence of her relations is Fastening this
poor old creatures death"
"Oh, yes. She sent, l know, just
before they went off to Saratoga. She
was too sick to so herself, so she wrote
note and got my eldest boy to take
it. But her sister-in-law wrote word
back that they'd enough to do to take
care of themselves.
DIR. Burnet did not go to Saratoga.
The Whitbys wondered why, and still
hoped he would come. till, at last, their
time was up, and they were forced to
60 home. But, when there, the mys-
terry was explained. A note was found
on the table, which had been left there
that day. announcing the death of their
aunt. The note was in the handwriting
of DR.. Burnet. A little inquiry re-
vealed to the Whitbys that the Doctor
had supported the invalid during the
last month of her existence, and even
made arrangements for her burial, sun
less, as the note said in conclusion,
"Mr. Whitby, as the nearest relative,
would prefer assuming direction of the
sad ceremonies"
They saw that no explanation that
could be made would satisfy the Doc
tor. So they did not attempt it. But
Mr.. Whitby paid the undertaker's bill,
and forwarded check to DR.. Burnet,
in formal note, for professional SER
vices" The check was returned in q
blank envelope.
DIR. Burnet is now married. He first
met his wife, we happen to know, in the
house of a poor family, where the same
common humanity had led them both.
He met her there several times, and
had fallen in love with her before he
knew her name. At last she passed
him one day in one of the stateliest
equipages Of the city. But he married
Helen Wakefield, not for her fortune,
but for her accomplishments and work.

What the Washington Star regards

What the Washington Star regards as
a long step toward democracy is en-
bodied in resolution to be introduced
in the English House of Lords, providing
that a peer of the realm shall have the
right to resign his place and stand fo'
election in the House of Commons. BY
this means the youthful and energetic
members of the oldest and most aristo-
cratic families of England may be en-
abled to get from beneath the burden Of
their birth and coming in touch with the
people lead on more speedily to that
democracy which must come, and which
will be the purer and better aud safer
democracy if it have as its representatives
and leaders the best men of the nation,
regardless Of the distinctions of birth and
class

brazilian citizenship is to be a definite
quantity, with no doubt Of vaguencss as
to its title. According to a decree Of
the new Government, every man of what
ever birth is considered a citizen of
Brazil, except as he definitely declares
his intention to remain under the Gov
crnmcnt Of his own land within six
months after the publication of the de-
cree. This, the New York Voice de-
clarcs, is reasonable, for, according to
that paper, one of the greatest difficulties
that any State has to meet is connected
with the mass of population that refuses
all duties of citizenship while claiming a
foreign allegiance, with its immunities
and special privileges. Every foreign
resident iu country should be com
PEELED to register himself once year,
declaring where he holds his citizenship.

Russia is at present in the throes OF
temperance campaign, which the cen

by the news from the department of

ing the abolition OF all liquor selling es-
adjustments within their boundaries.
Thirty.fve of these petitions were re-
jccted, but the thirty-sixth being accept

deprived of its drink turned out and beat
to death the man who had drawn up the
petition. They said he had been alto

The J0Huul dc 81. PeterSJ0Wg, in com
mcnting upon the German Empcrors
plans for ameliorating the condition of
the workingmen, says that only GOV
ernmcnt conscious Of its own power
would attempt such task, for the reason
that it is absolutely necessary for that
Government to be possessed Of means OF
checking any misconstucton of It's plans
that might be attempted, and preserving
public harmony in the event Of such mis-
understanding. The Berlin Post rtcos-
nizes the humane sentiments that
prompted the Emperor in formulating
the plans, but observes that he has en-.
tered upon a very dangerous path, and
compares his proposal to the similar at
tempt of Napoleon III. in 1863, at which
time the French Monarch announced a
European congress before he had con-
suited any of the other powers.

When we study the progress OF agrl-
culture we find, says the New York
Times, most conspicuous illustrations Of
the tendency of production to exceed the
demands of consumers. Corn, for in.
stance, has increased in quantity far
ahead of the increase in population. In
1874 the area in this crop was 41,OOO,-
900 acres; in 1856 it had grown to more
than rs, 900, 900 acres, an increase of 80
per cent. During these twelve years the
population increased only SO per cent.
The same excess has occurred in the pro
duction of cattle and hogs and the sala-
BILE products of these staple agricultural
products. 1t is not difficult to discover
the cause of this great and dispropor-
tionate increase. The extension OF rail-
roads in the great corn and cattle grow
ing regions has forced vast increase in
the population, and has led to the culti-
yation of enormous areas and the pro-
duction of enormous crops and herds OF
cattle with the inevitable result Of de-.
r-.'.-4 so
pressed values.

The French propose to protect thciI

definitely settled that foreign physicians
practicing in France must be taxed and
also pass an examination by Faculty of

latter will prefer, in the case OF Americans
