THE EUROPEAN SITUATION.

The Paris Figaro of Aug. 5 has a
letter alleged to have been written
by Prince Bismarck to the Russian
leader of the German party in st.
Petersburg. This letter makes the
German ex-ChancelIor declare that
the visit of the French squadron to
Cronstadt would not have occurred
had he remained in power. The
visit, the letter says, is the result of
three gross mistakes of German di-
plomacy. The first mistake was the
visit of Empress Frederick to Paris;
the second renewal of the triple
alliance, which was divulged with
such eagerness by Emperor William,
and the third was the Emperor's
noisy visit to London.
LIE Temps ridicules the report of
the Franco-Russian alliance. 1t de-
clares each nation will preserve its
liberty, and that France desires
friendship with England.
The North German Gazette de-
clines to invest the friendly co-opera-
ton of France and Russia with any
direct intention to disturb the peace.
Minister Lockroy of France, in an
interview, said he had no doubt the
handsome reception Of the French
feet at Cronstadt, if not the visit it.
self, was due to England's support
of the Dreibund While France was
isolated, he said, there was strong
temptation for the capricious Ger
man Emperor to plunge Germany
into war. The rapprochment be-
tween France and Russia removed
that danger France, however, had
mainly herself to blame, her obstin-
acy III her policy in the Egyptian and
Newfoundland questions throwing
England into the arms of Germany.

presented the annual Indian budget
statement in the Commons. He
called attention to the continued ex-
traordinary growth of the surplus,
which for 1891 he estimated at nearly
double that of 1890. This growth
was mainly due to the alteration IN
exchange consequent on the sudden
imitation of the rupee by American
legislation. He announced a large
decrease in revenue from opium, and
a steady increase in the land rev.
enue.

WHY SHE LEFT.

She Preferred Starvation to the Possi-
billty of Becoming FrecIcled.
A handsome young woman, who is
well known for her philanthropy and
who devotes a great deal of her time to
making light the burden of poverty
which other folks bear, recently found
family worthy of her assistance. 1t
consisted of a mother and several chill
dren, the oldest girl of twenty years,
wretchedly dressed. The young woman
cast about and finally secured position
in wholesale candy store for the girl.
The salary was fair, the hours were
not long, and all the girl had to do was
to pack candy. She accepted the situa-
ton gladly, and the young woman
left the family, feeling that she had
placed the girl in a position to earn
enough money to support them.
About two weeks later she called at
the tenement where the family lived, and
was surprised to find the girl at home.
"Why, what's the matter?" she asked
"Are you not working to-day?"
mo, ma'am," was the reply; "I'm
not working at all"
''When did you leave your placer"
'Last week"
''What was the matter?" Didn't they
pay you enough money!"
80, yes, ma'am; the wages was all
right. 1t wasn't that"
"Was the work too heavy for you?"
mo, ma'am; my work was light
enough"
The young woman began to feel very
uneasy. She dreaded what might follow.
But she faced the situation bravely, and
asked;
Were you not treated right, them"
80, yes, ma'am; I was treated all
right, but you see, ma am, they put me
to work in an alcove near sunny win
dow, Snd the sun came in nearly all
day, and was afraid I'd get freckled,

An Unequal Contest.

A sportsman was returning from
quail shooting, when he perceived a
sparrow hawk poise in the air short
distance from him and then dart
tiercely down into the grass. In mo.
ment the bird flew upwards with some
thing in its talons, and uttering cries in
which acute pain and the fierce Joy OF
victory seemed somewhat queerly
blended, 1t kept screaming and peck
ing at small object in its claws. The
sportsman brought his gun to his
shoulder and killed the bird. The bird
had driven its claws into the back of a
mouse, perforating the skin, passing
beneath two ribs of the little animal
and piercing the skin again in such a
manner that it could not turn it's catch
loose. The tortured mouse on his part
had seized one leg of the bird in his
mouth and buried his teeth in it just
above the joint in the leg, cutting the
bone entirely in two. Both mouse and
bird had been killed outright by the
the human animal of prey, the mouse
having received shot in the side and
the bird one in the head.--Waco Day.

Brighten the "Every Days" and You viii
Not Forget the Holidays.
j. M. Rice, Christian County, Mo-,
seems to know how to get the most of
true living on farm, and in recent
number of the Practical Farmer tells
how he gets some of it.
He says: "There should be time
when the work for the day is over,
when the harrassing chores are all
| done and real rest at noon be had, and
real rest and recreation in the even
ing.
''It is our rule to have the work to
stop in time, that the chores may all be
done before dark. Throw aside at
least some of the work-a-day clothing
and gather in a we'll lighted room where
books and papers abound.
Don't be content to have on your
table the interesting local paper and
even good farm and home paper; buS
let there be half dozen suited to tho
varied tastes of the family.
SIN our little circle of six, no two OF
us are equally interested in the same
things. Why should not the wants of
each mind be supplied so far as possi-
BILE? You may say you can not afford
it. We think you can.
I'VE were never so poor-and we
have often thought we were at the bot
tom round among common farmers
but what the library table was better
supplied than the dining-room table
We think more of the minds of our
children than we do of their bodies, and
in the little circle of growing boys
and girls we see the good fruits of the
outlay.
"Hhere has never been day or night
when the farm has not been our home,
and we have tried to make it pleasant
place for the young people, and we
have the satisfaction of seeing them
with deep love for the farm home,
with no desire to wander away from
its fold. Yet they have deep interest
and an active place in every good work
in the community.
Brighten the every days and you
will not forget the holidays"

When money flows in steadily the
wage-earners buy the best cuts of meat
and are liberal consumers of expensive
early vegetables and fruit. The dis
pensers of charity for a church, more
trustful than prudent, gave a mill fam
lily protesting to be in dire need orders
on grocer for certain amount week

the meat and meal indicated the trades
man was persuaded to substitute fruit,
nuts and raisins. At every door chill
dren squat around tin plate of sirup,
dipping in it big hunks of corn-pone
and smearing their yellow faces more
widely with each mouthful. The sweet

ways ready-a great advantage where
the housewife "bees tired" from her
