The Richest European Sovereign.

The czar of Russia is the richest sover-
eign in Europe and one of the richest men
in the world. The income of the impe-
rial family of Russia is derived from the
crown lands, which are regarded as the
czars private estate and treated as such.
They comprise over 100000 square
miles, about one third of the area of the
United States, and include farms, pasture
or grazing land, and forests, while hum
dreds of villages are built on them, the
inhabitants Of which pay their rent to the
czar. Many gold, silver, and other mines
are included in the crown property, and
the output of these is believed to be very
large. There are no means Of ascertain
ing the exact income of the czar, since
the imperial accounts are not more open
to the public than the books of private
individual, but it Is estimated by Rus
slams in official position at &c, ,450,00O a
year, about $l2,250,O0O OF this enor.
nous sum a portion is devoted to the
maintenance of hospitals. asylums,
churches, and theaters, but the larger
part is swallowed up by the personal and
official expenses of the imperial family.

Pointers for Shoe Saleamen,

"Please try the left shoe on, ~ said the
lady who sat next me in a shoe store
why was that?" asked the man who
had served her, when she departed.
Hole in her stocking. Oh, yes. You
would hardly believe how many ladies'
have holes in their stockings. We al
ways know it. It's try the right shoe
on or the left, never mind the other
Some of them say, I'm afraid have a
little break in my stocking. didn't ex-
pect to get my shoes tried to-day And
often the little break horrfies them, hav-
ing grown to big break during the day.
Oh, yes, little breaks come sometimes,
and the lady herself does not know it till
the shoe is removed. In those cases she
usually says nothing, but Just bushes.
The hole is always genuine case of acci-
dent when woman takes it that way.
Sometimes they gasp, SO that we shall
see how surprised they are, but then
some women pretend that. We can
usually tell the real thing. A successful
shoe salesman needs peculiar gifts of tact
and the genius Of patience, this one con-
tinued. when woman has a really
large foot it's best to bring q shoe slightly
too small, and then appear surprised that
it does not fit. Some feet look smaller
than really smaller foot is a good ex-
PLANTATION Of your error. Bring to the
woman who has a genuinely tiny foot a
shoe too big, and then fit down to her.
Nothing pleases her SO much. A sales
man influences the buyer tremendously.
i believe woman would rather have her
foot praised than be told she is clever.
Always humor woman with a big foot.
You can wear much smaller shoe than
this. of course, but you want this for
really comfortable wear That makes
her want to hug you. "-[New York Sun.

Mtsused Words.

The richness Of the English language
consists in the number and variety of its
synonyms. These synonyms have a
shade Of difference, but their resemblance
of meaning is sufficient to make them
liable to be confounded together. The
habit of discriminating the shades Of
meaning will guard against this liability.
The following eight words, which are
frequently misused by interchanging one
for the other. furnish examples of this
ever present liability.
Between for among.-The word "be-
tween" is properly used only when its
object consists of two items. Among"
should be used il the object includes
more than two items. Between" is a
corruption of "by twain, or "by two. {"
A father divides his property between his
among his five children.
Constant means occurring all the time
without intermission. @Frequent" means
occurring often. We frequently hear
constant used to denote events which oc-
cur quite often, but at considerable inter-
walls of time.
Custom for habit.-A person forms q
habit. A community or people have a
custom. 1t is habit with most persons
to confound these two words. Indeed,
this habit has almost become the custom
in some communities.
Depot for station.-The place where the
train stops to take in passengers is a
station, whether there be building there
or not. The depot depository is a strong
building for the temporary storage of
goods in the care of the railroad company
for delivery or for transportation. Ut
may be at station or it may not)

The hero of the popular song of "Robin
Adair, which is attributed to Lady Car
oline Keppel, was Robert Adair, SUR
geon Q710CD-179O), well known to the
London fashionable circles of the
eighteenth century as the Fortunate
Irishman.
His detection in an early amour drove
him from Dublin to London. On his
way he fell in with lady of fashion who
had been slightly hurt in runaway acci-
dent. He travelled with her in her car
riage to London as surgical attendant, and
on their arrival was presented with fee
of 100 gnineas and general invitation to
her house. There he met Lady Caroline
keppel, daughter of the second Earl Of
Albemarle, who, forgetting her high line
age. fell desperately in love with the Irish
surgeon at sight.
The Albemarle family, dismayed at the
project of such mesalliance, took Lady
Caroline from London to Bath, and tried
every means to make her forget her
lover, but in vain. At last their opposi-
tion was withdrawn, and the couple were
united.
1t was at Bath that Lady Caroline is
said to have composed the words of
Robin Adair, setting them to the plaint-
i've Irish tune Of Eileen Aroon, which
she had heard her lover sing.
The original song Of Eileen Aroon" is
attributed to one Carol O'Daly, an early
Irish bard who flourished apparently be-
fore the tenth century. A Munster poet
of the seventeenth century rewrote the
words, and In this form it was translated
by John Anster and paraphrased by
Gerald Griffin. 1t is in Grffin's para
phrase that the song is known to this
generation.-[Li [Lippincott's.

The New York World recently
printed three column article
about the life of the Clevelands A
their Buzzard's Bay home, which
closes with these beautiful and Sig
niiicant words
"The Clevelands have spent much
time this summer on the steam Yacht
Oneida, which belongs to +. c. Bene-
dict the Broad street banker. She is
a comfortable boat of seventy tons.
The yacht was anchored near the
house for nearly a month, except
when every one went on a cruise,
which was pretty often. But of late
Mrs Cleveland has not cared much
to leave Gray Gables. She doesn't
move about nearly so much as she
did.
"She loves best to sit upon the ver-
anda with her husband at her side or
walk slowly with him hand in hand
through the pine groves. Never has
she looked SO lovely as she does this
summer. Her face is brown like
chocolate, an exquisitely beautiful col
or. Soft loose robes cover her stately
figure. On her head is usually a
yachting cap.
"The Benedicts and their yacht are
gone now. Before they went away
MIR. Benedict, his son and Mr.. Cleve-
lsnd went over in Cape Cod Bay on a
fishing trip. Mrs. Cleveland did not
go with them. Formerly she has al.
ways accompanied her husband to the
Indian village, near which is to be
found such fine sport Mrs. Cleve-
lands mother is at Gray Gables now.

purple flecked shells will break be-
fore long.
Nearer and nearer do Mr.. and Mrs.
Cleveland seem to grow TO each other.
Somehow the villagers know about it.
Mothers draw their little ones to their
breasts as she passes and whisper a
prayer. They see soft, radiant
smile that shines from her dreamy
eyes, they notice the futtering of her
lips, and now and then the dew in her
eyes. They are quick to see and
know-these Cape Cod women.
That is because they are women, and
they know more in single glance
than men can learn in all their lives.
So when the shadows lengthen and
the nightly prayer is said, the de-
vout villagers have little whispered
sentence for her. The Pines breathe
it in each others ears. The rest
less waves gurgle and laugh over the
secret. The birds chatter about it
and the days move slowly by.

stitute preparation when a customer
calls for Hoods Sarsaparilla. Do not
allow any such false statements as

Two Billions in Mortgages.
CENSUS STATISTICS OF HOMES ON WHICH
THERE ARE INCUMBRANCEs.

The count of the farm and home
transcripts, made in accordance with
the mortgages collected by the Census
Office. is completed. The figures are
subject to slight notifications. There
were returned by the enumerators
2,4oI,93ofarms and homes occupied
by owners which are incumbered by
mortgages. This number includes
some farms and homes about which
the enumerators made no report, and
which belong partly to the class of
hired and partly to the class of owned
free, as we'll as partly to the class of
owned and incumbered. Until this
unknown quantity, due to the failure
OF the enumerators, is eliminated, it
may be regarded as approximately
true that two and quarter million
families of the twelve and one e-half
million families Of the United States
occupy and own incumbered farms
and homes, and that ten and quarter
million families occupy farms and
homes that are either hired or owned
free.
The proportions of hired and owned
free homes and farms will be known
when the population divisions COM
pletes the count of the returns per
tanning to them. The preliminary re-
suits indicate that the average debt
for farm in Iowa is $I2S3; home,
S7I0; average for farm and home,
SII4o. If these averages hold good
for the Union, the incumbrance on
the farms and homes of the United
States occupied by owners is about
S2,565,ooo,ooo.
The success Of this investigation,
Superintendent Porter says, has been
far beyond the anticlpations of the
most experienced statisticians, and
the result will be Of immense interest
and value to the nation. The first
volume relating to recorded indebted
ness will probably go to press this
year. Incomplete returns from several
Western States indicate that farms
and homes are mortgaged for about
one-third the value put upon them by
the owners.

DISPUTE. THE CASKET AT
SAN DOMINGO.

The press of San Domingo is urg-
ing convention of the representa-
ives of all the historical societies in
the world, TO be held in that city, in
order to settle definitely the vexed
question of the place where rest the
earthly remains of Christopher Colum-
bus. Havana claims to have the on
ly genuine bones, and this is indig-
nantly denied by the Dominicans, the
contest raging in the newspapers
with as much vehemence as the dis
pute as to the superiority of two West
ern towns.
1t is thought that if representative
body of men of that kind could be
gathered there on the scene of the
acts of dispute that the matter might
be settled forever.
The commissioner of the Latin
American department recently visited
the cathedral in San Domingo, viewed
the sepulchural urn, and in the pres
ence of large number of distinguish
ed persons was accorded the rare
privilege of a sight at the interior of
the casket. He was allowed to take a
large number of photographs, which
will be reproduced for exhibition at
Chicago.
His opinion as to the genuineness
of the remains as compared with those
in Havana was sought, but the com
missioner declined to express any
positive judgment.

To Cool a Bedroom.

If the sleeping room is warm, it
may be cooled for time by wringing
large pieces of cotton out of water
and hanging them before the open
windows, says IHe Ladies' Home
Journal. Leave the door open, and
as the air comes through the wet cot
ton it will be cooled. This is a good
device for cooling a sick.room the
clothes can then be wet again and
again. Keep the gas turned low dur
ing the process of undressing, and
sleep without light, unless it is tiny
