A great many northern papers are
expressing themselves very freely
about the pension business just now.
One Of the most outspoken Is the
Chicago Times, which, commenting
on the withdrawal OF pensions from
l25 men nj Pittsburgh, and the re-
solve Of the grand army posts to APP
peal the matter to the courts, very
perlinently says;
Does any one doubt that thou
sands upon thousands Of undeserv.
ers have been piled upon the PEN
sion rolls ? Men are continued
thereon rs invalids though no sign
of physical decrepitude is visible.
Widows who were not born at the
close of the war survive The old sol
diers whom they married and have
not made remarriage known to the
department. Thorough invesliga-
tion would, no doubt drop tens Of
thousands of names from the PEN
sion rolls. The work of an investl-
cation is an act of simple honesty.
The marvel is not that 125 names
were dropped at the Pittsburg agen-
cy, but that the number was not
ten times that.
Grand army posts that come
forth indiscriminateIy to shield un-
OBSERVERS, and struggle for the reten-
ton upon the pension roll OF people
who receive n stipend because they
lost their hair during the war Of
the rebellion or acquired corns on
some Of their toes, they di5credit
the name they bear and the associ-
ates they had during the war.
Economy Of federal administra-
ton has become an imperative ne
cessity. One reason for the strin-
gency Of the times is the exceeding
cost of goyernment-federal, state
and local. Too much is demanded
Of the resources Of the people IN
the name OF state and nation. The
largest single item of expenditure
is that fos pensions, which has
mounted mp beyond the anticipa-
lion Of the most exlravagant pro-
ponent Of wide-oFen pension laws.
If persons have certificates and do
not hold them honestly ii is within
the power Of the department to drop
such persons. They will never be
able to ascertain all of them, but
they should continue their invesli-
CATION in the hope Of diminishing
the number in every case that
search will develop. The trend Of
appropriations on pension account,
as upon all other accounts, must be
downward.

What Might Be Done.

What might be done II men were wise
What glorious deeds, my suffering brother
Would they unite,
In love and right,
And cease their scorn Of one another.
Expressions heart might be imbued
With kindling drops Of human kindness,
And knowledge pour
From shore 10 shore.
Light on the eyes OF mental blindness.
All slavery, warfare, lies and wrong,
All vice and crime might die together;
And vine and corn,
To each man born,
Be free as warmth Ia summer weather.
The meanest wretch that ever trod,
The deepest sunk in guilt and sorrow,
Might stand erect,
in self-respcct,
And share the teeming world tomorrow.
What might be done? This might be done
And more than tais, my suffering brother
More than the tongue
Fer said or sung,
II men we're wise and loved each other.

If the dining room is small and dark
and has no communication with direct
air and sunlight, pull down the gloomy
paper and substitute cream white,
pearl, atmospheric blue, custard or
some such cheerful and magnifying
tint. Wall papers sell as low as five
cents roll, and, although the quality
may not be desirable, it is preferable to
the finest grade in dark or heavy tints.
Don't carpet the floor Have it stained
or painted a light brown, and put rug
under the table, not large enough to
interfere with the chairs, but sufficient
to rest the feet. Put thin white mus
lin shades on the window, and if means
allow drape over them the thinnest cur
tains. In some of the finest houses in
New York, for summer service, the
windows are hung with blue holland
to keep out the sun, white linen to
temper the light and white tarlatan

trade upon the accidents that occurred

Toronto was the name of an Indian

capital of Upper Canada in 1894 and
named it York. There the seat of the

The Madeleine church is one of the
most beautiful buildings in Paris. 1t
was begun by Louis XIV. and complet-
ed in the'reign off Louis Philippe. It
is of Grecian architecture. The prin-
cipal facade looks upon the Rue Royale
and the Place de la Concorde and is
very magnificent. The interior of the
church is richly decorated in gilt and
marble. 1t contains many paintings
and sculptures illustrative of the life
of the Magdalene. In May, 1871, three
hundred insurgents were driven by the
Versailles troops into this church and
there killed.

elephant, before whom a whole people
bow the knee, is the emblem of the
kingdom of Siam. 1t is honored with
the most beautiful presents, for the
Indians, full of the idea of metamor-

animal could only be animated by the
spirit of Heaven or of an emperor.
Each white elephant possesses its pal
ace. vessel Of gold, and a harness re-
splendent with jewels. Several man
charins are attached to its service and
feed it with cakes and sugar cane. The
king of Siam is the only person before
whom it bows the knee, and a similar
is rendered it by the mon
arch
