Whisky is an article more adulterated
than any other oil the mnnv agents

be pure and wholesome, besides being
distilled from selected grain, should
have age and care in maturing, and

But how strange and touching is the

who, to inspire her soldiers and to

the original convent was once locked
the embryo OF the new world. For its

first landed on the Spanish coast, and to

wonded his way to find in the kind
heart and wise head Of the prior source
OF encouragement that never withdrew
inspiration from the dark prospects Of
the beginning to the closing triumphs
OF that discovery that lifted one-half Of
the world from tho depths OF night to
the glorious dawn OF day.
A strange providence shapes tho des-
TIMES OF men, for in the priory OF the
Rabda convent Columbus found Il man
who knew the queens magnanimous

Of the old structure is, according to the
testimony ofSpanish visitors, very near
perfect. The cacti and the flowers that
adorn the historic hills OF the old have

new, and thus Intensified perspective

Everyone should see this old and
much passed by relic OF that dolorous
period, because tho whole Worlds Fair
is in celebration of an event that grew
out OF business conceived in that old
convent. Within stones throw Of the
quaint old carnvels can be seen paint
ings by the great artists, dead and
living, who have placed on tho death
less lincaments OF canvas tho varied
retrospect OF that lie dearer to the
great heart OF the western hemisphere
than life itself.
One will see in the work OF the mas
ter's pictures OF Queen Isabella that
will make the muititudes worship more
than exer nobility in woman. They all
represent her with face and eye ra-
diant with benevolence and sympathy.
Ono OF these pictures represents the
elimination OF the tragic and pathetic
in her romantic and interesting life,
and embodies, as if by suitable eXtrem-
ity OF contrast, also the idea OF mean
ness. Tho inehably kind and beautiful
queen is seen standing in her apart
ments and pointing to n large open case
OF diamonds and other jewels. In front
OF her stand two avnricious men whose
eyes, while she seems speaking to them,
have not rested for n moment on her
fair aud grand features, but are rivetcd
with hyena like gaze on the precious
gems before them. The possession OF
those CONS and the kind heart that
would for such an object offer to sacri-
flee them to the clutch OF rapacity were
the circumstances that above others
gave rise to the enterprise that resulted
in the discovery OF the new world.
There is world in this picture and
ycrv many others in the old convent
are suggestive in similar way. The
anguishing diatress OF that terrible and
protracted war with the Saracens would
tend to obiterato kindness from the
breast OF king who saw his country
pillaged, his treasury depleted, his
brave soldiers sacrificed.

THE LEGEND OF EVIL
BY RUDyARD K1PLING.

This is the sorrowful STORY
Told when the twilight fails,
And the monkeys walk together
Holding each others tails:
"Our fathers lived in the forest:
Foolish people were they.
They went down to the cortland
To teach the farmers to play.
Our fathers frisked in the millet,
Our faith erssskipped in the wheat,
Our fathers hung in the branches,
Our fathers danced on the street.
Then came the terrible farmers
Nothing of play they knew.
Only they caught our fathers
And set them to labor too.
Set them to work in the cortland,
With plows and sickles and fails;
Put them in mud-walled prisons,
And cut off their beautiful tails!
Now we can watch our fathers,
Sullen and bowed and old,
STOPPING over the millet,
Stirring the silly mould.
Driving the foolish furrow,
Mending a muddy yoke,
Sleeping in Inud-walled prisons,
Sleeping their food in smoke.
We may not speak to our fathers,
For if the farmers knew
They would come up to the forest
And set us to labor tool"
This is the horrible story
Told as the twilight fails,
AS the monkeys walk together
Holding each others tails.
