Columbus and Queen Isabella.

As it happened, Isabella had no money
at hand. Her war with Granada had cost
o prodigious sum. She found herself IN
debt even to her own servants. Political
reasons, of great weight with the resolute
Ferdinand, who was justly content with
the practical results of concentration OF
power, and economical reasons, of great
weight also with the conscientious Isa-
bella, who was most anxious to bring
about some system and regularity in her
revenues, induced their refusal, in view Of
the fresh outlays required for the expedi-
tion, and,of the exaggerated demands for
rank and Office should the expedition yield
its promised results But to the friends of
the discoverer neither Of these considera-
tions appeared sufficient TO warrant the
abandonment and rejection of such mar
velous plans.
AS soon as Santangelo heard Of the fight
Of Columbus he went to the queens cham

turn, being supported in this by the Mar
chioness of Moya. And when the queen

brazilian Coffee.

Does it not strike you as strange, consid-
ering the fact that more than half the cof-
fee consumed in the world Is grown in
Brazil that one seldom sees Brazilian cof-
fee advertised, Should you ask your gro
Ger for "best Brazilian he would not know
what to gvo you. The reason Is because
the best coffee grown in Brazil is sold un-
der the name of "Java" and Mocha" and
a large share of the inferior grades are
marked Bourbon and "Martinique.n
Yet nowadays the latter island produces
hardly more than 500 sacks OF coffee in a
year-a mere drop in the worlds biz
bucket; and Bourbon yields perhaps 5000
sacks per annum-just about enough to
supply the markets Of Rio for twenty-four
hours.
At least nine-tenths Of all the mocha"
coffee that you drink with such gusto be-
cause it costs an extra price is the small,
round bean of the Brazilian plant, picked
from the tips of the upper branches where
the tropic sun has had most chance to in
fuse richness into it, and afterwand "sepa-

do not sell their crops under any special
trade mark. Between the fazendeiro and
exporter class of "middlemen," unknown
elsewhere, intervene-half bankers, half
brokers-locally designated as commisa-
rios, who lower the standard Of the crop by
mixing different harvests, thus relieving
individual producers of all responsibility
and depriving the product of its true value.

Make a Beginning,

A good woman in Philadelphia twenty
odd years ago asked two or three of her
friends to join her in renting little room
where they could meet occasionally to
drink cup of tea and consult together
how to help other women whose lot in the
world was harder than their own.
Out of that little room has grown the
stately New Century club, with its col
lateral guilds, classes and clubs of working
women, which have helped and strength
ened many thousands.
Many readers who live in inland towns
are bewildered when they visit the cities
by the great libraries, hospitals, associa-
tions for charity, education or mutual aid,
and wish hopelessly they had the same
helps to broader and higher life in their
own homes.
Let them begin with little effort, and
persist in their good work. Some good
will come from every attempt of this kind.
The most firmly grounded institutions are
those which grew out Of poverty slowly,
and were not built to order.-Youth's
Companion.

ROSES.

With rarest Of roses my gardens replete;
Red roses, coquettish and dewy and sweet;
Pale vestal robed roses born Of a prayer;
Young blushing pink roses, sweetest TO wear;
Ruby red roses with deep golden heart;
Roses of Ophir, by winds kissed apart;
Roses who've folded the sunsets late ray
Close in their velvety petals away;
White roses that hide meath yelling Of snow
The dainty blush of the pink shells glow;
Roses illumined with ruddiest CLEAN;
Roses as pure as young maiden's dream;
Roses cream tinted rs foam on the sea;
Scarlet Tipped roses, caressed by the bee;
Starry eyed roses drenched with the dew;
Variegate roses, like hopes ever new;
Jacqueminot roses, martial in mien;
Royal blood roses, Saffrana, the queen;
Fair Duchesse roses. with beauty of state
Marechal Neil roses, pompous and great;
Roses all yellow with buds Of rare gtd;
Roses that whisper the tale that Is old:
Roses and roses, gay, tleeting and new;
But where is my rose love, tender and true?
or all the bright beauty the garden discloses,
She blooms in the summer, the queen of tn
roses.
