WHY THE POOR ARE WITH US.

The path that leads to a loaf Of bread
Winds through the swamps Of toll;
The path that leads to a suit of clothes
Goes over a flowerless soil;
And the paths that lead to the loaf of bread
And the suit Of clothes, are hard to tread.
The path that leads to a house Of your own
Climbs over the powdered hills;
The path that leads to a bank account
Is swept by the blast that kills.

file Loves HIS Family Far Better Than
His Country.
Alexander is, in the finest acceptatiou
of the term, family man; whenever he
can enjoy home life, as he does only at
Fredensborg, in Denmark, he is perfectly
happy. This is all the more remarkable
in man whose sovereignty is absolute,
who is almost pope, who could, like his
ancestor, Ivan the Terrible. cut off the
head of an architect to prevent his ever
building church finer than the one or
dered by his imperial master, whom none
in his empire dare resist.
Alexander III can with single stroke
of his pen free several millions of serfs,
but no one knows, probably no one car
guess, what he thinks, what he intends to
do, what he will do. The most perspica-
cious of foreign diplomats at his court
can only conjecture vaguely; he has no
certainty.
The car is reticent, silent, self con-
tanned; he shows no preference for any
one; loves to be with the empress better
than with all others; he is seriously af-
fected by any illness or misfortune hap.
pening to his children; he discounte-
nances extravagances in his courtiers
will not hear of immortality at his court
prizes responsibility, expects all those
who surround him to conform to his
standard, and is intolerant of scandal.
Under his reign the Russian court has as
clean a record as any in Europe.
