HARD times-very hard times-every-
where in Europe. From all Of the great
cities come heart-rending stories of wide
spread lack of employment and destitEtion,
rendered still more sOrroWful by the severe
weather which prevails. In England hun
dreds Of thousands of mechanics and opera
tives are out of work, and consequently
without the means to supply themselves
and families with the necessaries Of life.
II is the same in France, Germany and
Austria, though not so much is said about il
in the papers. In Italy, in spite of the
beggarly wages paid, fully 10000 mechanics
are reported out of work and suffering in
the three cities of Rome, Florence and
Milan.

SOME of the soldier-haters lay great stress
upon the point that the country has the
right to the services of all its citizens in
time of war" Certainly. So has it the
right to the property of its citizens, and the
same reasoning that would deny pensions to
veterans would apply with equal force to
paying neither principal nor interesr on the
money loaned by the bondhOlders to carry
on the war. This thought probably never
occurred to the anti-pension shriekers.

4" REAL RUSSIA"
by AUGUSTUS BUELL., crhe CannOneerl

This is most interesting account of expe-
rienees and observations in Russia, by the tai
ented author of "The Cannoneer's Story"
He was for time in Russia, engaged in rail-
road building, mingled intimately with the
people, and we need not tell our readers that
he kept his eyes open, got down TO bottom
facts all the time and is able to tell what
he saw and experienced in clear captivat-
ing way. 1t is without doubt one Of the
most valuable studies of Russia ever made,
and will be read with interest by everybody.
1t will be illustrated by photographs secured
on the ground. We shall begin its publica-
ton within few weeks.
