which will furnish a Almsy excuse for

what France is doing, and proposes to

cowardice and robbery; cowardice,
because France would not think Of at
tempting it with a nation of equal
strength; robbery. because France
has no more right to the territorial!
privileges she claims than has the
burly ruffian who stops a cripple on
the highway and compels him to choose
between his money and his life.
But in acquiring Siamese territory
France may tread on the tail Of the
British lion. Great Britain will then
fly to the rescue of Siam. In the i'm
broglio that follows Russia wlllside with
France, for Frances success will aid
her in her encroachments upon Asiatic

does not in any way jeopardize the
Asiatic power that Great Britain is
trying to enforce, she will be per-
mitted to subdue and rob the weak
little kingdom of Siam, unmolested.
China's interference will amount to
little, as that country is indirectly a
protege of Great Britain. Thus the
history of the European dominion in
the Oriental has been written. Eng

"Cockoloruln Jlnks."

l am going to tell you about a
speckled Hamburg rooster that we
once had. He had no brothers or
sisters, and so we brought him into
the house and fed and petted him.
When he grew older he became very
handsome, and was the most amusing
bird l ever saw. We would dress
him up in dolls clothes, and wheel
him about in doll's carriage. He
would walk about the house, and was
very fond of picking flies off the
windows that reached down to the
floor. One day l was crying on the
stairs, and he hoped up beside me
and began chuckling away, as though
trying to comfort me, and asking
what was crying for. Another time
some ladies came to see Mama, and
as she was not in the room, "Cocko-
lorum links" Gor that was his name)
came struttlng into the room and sat
down on a chair, with his feet
stretched out in front Of him (the way
he always sat in a chair). When
Mama came into the room, he jumped
off the chair, gave loud crow, and
strutted out of the room as though
he had done his duty. At another
time a gentleman came to visit US.
When he rang the door-bell, CockO-
lorum Jinks heard him, and came

RlIndgIrlrs Bur,

BliRdman's buff under the new
name Of blindgiTl's buff is In our
midst. This is the way it Is done.
The pretty buffer is blindfOlded by
means of long black mask, which
effectually keeps her from gazing un-
derneath. She is then seated in the.
middle of the room, while the COM
pany, joining hands, slowly walk
around her.
AS the mystic circle silently passes
around the blindfolded enChantress
the latter brings down her wand
lightly upon the head Of any one
whom its aim may concern. He
quickly catches it, kisses the hand Of
the queen of the mask and takes his
place upon the throne, where he in
turn sways the scepter. Should a
young woman be touched with the
wand she embraces her ex-queen and
tries her own hand with the wand.
The game is made interesting by
the announcement that should the
queen fail in three strokes to touch
one of her subjects she is presented,
later on, with the court TESTERS paper
cap and bells. And should any sub
iect be so fortunate as to be three
times chosen she is given a jubilee
and is awarded a gilt crown, or,
prettier still, flower one.-New Or

When Sir Christopher Wren built
the town hall of Windsor, fldgety
member of the corporation, as the
story goes, insisted that the roof re-
Quired further support and wished
that more pillars should be added.
Vainly did Sir Christopher assure
him that the supposed danger was
imaginary, the alarm became in
fictitious, and the great architect was
finally worried into adding the de-
sired columns. Years rolled on, but
in later times, when architect and
patrons had passed away, cleaning
operations in the roof revealed the
fact that the supposed additional
supports did not touch the roof by a
couple of inches, though this was i'm
perceptible to the gazers below. BY
this ingenious expedient did Wren
pacify his critics, while indicating
his own architectural skill to future
generations.

Of the arch. Let the pillars be one

arch spring from point three inches
from the base of the pillars. Now
draw third pillar, one-half inch

the arch exactly in the apex and will

You will be surprised to find that
If this be done neatly, so that the
lines Of the arch do not show behind
the third pillar, the curves of one
side of the arch will seem to be lower
than those Of the other.
The Illusion is most complete when
the figure is drawn in outline with
out any shading; and that part of
the arch which is concealed by the
pillar should be omitted, and rubbed
out, as the traces of the outlines de-
stroy the illusion.
Another optical illusion is made
very simply by terminating lines in
different ways. The lines are not set

WASHINGTON, July IL. ls.-Comptroller
Eckels has received the following letter
from Henry Clews, the well known
banker:
"The national bank act certainly
should be amended to provide for notes
being issued up to the parvalue of Unit
ed States bonds, and another amend
endment would also be wise to provide
for an issue of notes against the surplus
capital of the national banks to the ex-
tent of rs per cent thereof. These two
changes in the law would make an
increase in national currency amounting
to about $50, 900, 600, and would
Provide the Nation
with enough new money for its needs,
and it would be the best and most legit.
innate kind besides. The New York
banks now have surplus over capital of
$70, 200, 600. The national banks of other
cities and elsewhere have probably
800, 600, 600 in addition. This backing
in cash or its equivalent to the notes
issued against the same would make
them the strongest and most Legitimate
character of money in circulation. Nc
stronger kind of money could be de-
vised. The surplus against which the
issue of these notes would be made
would be under the national bank ex.
