The following might be taken as
an illustration of very broad hint.
A great military man says that he
once sat next Prince Bismarck at a
party, and at a very slight
distance from the old emperor. Bis
marck was literally loud in his ex-
pressions of gratitude and loyalty to
his sovereign.
"He has great generosity Of dis
position" he declared. "One day he
said to me, How can / show my
sense Of the many obligations / am
under to you?'

but that if he would send me a few
BOTTLES of a certain hook he possessed,
it would be very welcome. That

This would be one advantage of rear
ing these birds In confinement. Un-
der such conditions also it would be
practicable to vastly improve the
speaking faculty by mating the best
takers together for generations,
Thus would be produced such feath-
cred onversationalists as are UNI
known up to date, 1t would certain
ly be profitable to breed and raise
the parrots known as Carolina para

high prices, though they used to be
very common as far north as Penn

the few survivors are almost wholly
confined to scattered localities in
Florida and the Indian Territory.

Wind tho Dootot Is.

Let any one, when his life Is in the
balance, try to realize what he would
like his doctor to be and to know, IL
does not need a vivid Imagination in
any man to conceive how much may
depend on his DOCTORS knowledge, on
his skill, and on his experience. 1t
is trite question, "What is life with
out health?" Few persons but have
had its truth wildly before their
minds when in pain or weakness.
Ones doctor may make all the differ
ence whether life is worth living or
not He is welcome when no one else
is admitted, Not only his knowledge
and skill and practical resource, but
his tone of mind, his honor, his cour-
age, his sympathy and his innate
power Of inspiring confidence, may
make vast difference to any of us,
a difference it may be between sanity
and insanity, between penury and
competence, or even between life and
death.
Few realize how much they are de-
pendent on the sense Of duty and the
honor Of the doctor apart from his
professional skill. What do they
know about the effects of the power
full drugs he gives? How can they
detect or counterfeit his mistakes?
Their bodies and their lives are in
his hands far more absolutely than
are the lives and fortunes of his sub
jects in the power of any Eastern
despot. From the public point Of
view the profession Of medicine is
filling year by year a larger space.
The community is looking to it for
more light and leading about santa
tion, about education, about the
choice Of occupations and professions
for young people, about how to keep
we'll and happy. Practical questions
connected with heredlty loom in the
near future.
Well might Mr.. Gladstone say that
of all the professions 1t Is the one
which is in the ascendant at present.
Mr.. Dlsraeli did not without cause
construct his epigram. "Sanitas SAM

CHAPTER vi.


"ARIsE, BLACK VENGEANCE, FROM THY HoL-
Low CELL -
The summer had melted into autumn,
the London season was over and the
Clanyardes had left their furnished
house in Eaton Place, which the Wis
count had taken for the season, to re-
turn to Marchbrook where Gilbert
Sinclair was to follow them as visitor.
He had proposed for Constance, and
had been accepted-with much inward
rejoicing on the part of the father; with
q strange conflict of feeling in the mind
of the lady herself. Did she love the
man she had promised to marry? Well,
no; there was no such feeling as love
for Gilbert Sinclair In her mind. She
thought him tolerably good-looking,
and not exactly disagreeable and 1t
had been impressed upon her that he
was one of the richest men in England
"a man who could bestow upon her
everything which a well-bred young
lady must, by education and nature, de-
sire. The bitter pinch of poverty had
been severely felt at March brook, and
the Clanyarde girls had been taught,
in an indirect kind OF way, that they
were bound to contribute to the restora-
tion of the family fortunes by judicious
marriages. The two elder girls Adelia,
and Margaret, had married well-one
Sir Henry Ellington, Sussex baronet,
with very nice place and comfortable
income, the other rich East Indian
merchant, considerably past middle
age. But the fortunes Of Sir Henry,
and Mr.. Campion, the merchant, were
as nothing compared with the wealth
of Gilbert Sinclair; and Lord Clanyarde
told his daughter Constance that she
would put her sisters to shame by the
brilliancy of her marriage He flew
into terrible passion when she at first
expressed herself disinclined to accept
Mr.. Sinclair's offer, and asked her how
she dared to fly in the face of Provi-
dence by refusing such a splendid des-
| tiny. What in Heavens name did she
expect, girl without siXpence OF her
own, and with nothing but her pretty
face and aristo ratio lineage to recon-
mend her? He sent his wife to talk to
her, and Lady Clanyarde, who was a
very meek person. and lived in state
of perpetual subservience to her hus-

daughter for upward of an hour upon
the foolishness and ingratitude of her
course. Then came the two married
sisters with more lecturing and per-
suasion, and at last the girl gave way,
fairly tired out, and scOlded into kind
of Responding submission.
So Gilbert Sinclair came one morn
ing to Eaton Place, and finding Miss
Clanyarde alone in the drawing-room,
made her solemn offer of his heart
and hand. He had asked her to be his
wife before this, and she had put him
of with an answer that was almost a
refusal. Then had come the lecturing
and scolding, and she had been schooled
into resignation to a fate that seemed
to her irresistible. She told her sutton
that she did not love him that il she
accepted him it would be in Difference

Imported Birds Are Delicate, but When

An industry which invites the at

practical to propagate and rear them
in lighthouses The best takers
among these birds, according to the
Washington Star, are the gray Afri-
can variety, with the red tail. They
are very delicate and make risky
stock for the importer. If one par

Immediately 1t is suspected that
the water in this country does not
agree with them. They are worth
from $40 to S12 unframed and when
trained they fetch almost any price.
They come from Liberia and Monro-
via, where they are caught in great
numbers by the blacks. The latter
make business of catching parrots,
and have regular parrot farms in
their villages. At the breeding sea-
son the men, women and children
scatter in the wilderness and rob
nests. They wait until the young
are nearly ready to leave the nest,
and then they take them. Trading
vessels buy them in quantities and
carry them to ports where steamers
in the African trade stop for cargo.
Thus they are forwarded to Europe.

WORSE THAN COOLIES.
Frlghtful Condition OF the Peasants OF tho
Island of Sicily.
ITO BE CONTINUED, |

Frightful Condition OF the Peasants OF tho
Island of Sicily.
The condition of the peasants of
Sicily, who recently rose against their
oppressors and well nigh precipitated
a general revolt against the Italian
government, is perhaps more wretched
than that of any Other civilized people
in the world. For ages the poorer
classes have been the prey of the richer
and have been burdened by the most
exorbitant taxation while the rich
have generally escaped without any
taxation at all. Corruption is rife in
every Office in the island and justice is
mere mockery, simply depending on
who can give the largest bride.
The land is owned by few noblemen
who live in Rome or Palermo and who
lease their estates to capitalists known
as "gabelIotti, or tax extOrters. These
in their turn divide the estates and
sublet them to "subgabellotti," who
again lease the subdivided land piece
meal to the peasants, or, if you wish
farmers. These latter are most shame
fully bled. They are permitted to
retain but one-quarter Of their crops,
no matter how poor the yield may
be. In addition to this they are COM
PEELED to pay ON enormous tax and pro-
vide themselves with seed and the me-
cessities of life. Reduced to the most
abiect poverty, the estate-owner pad
rome" sometimes lends them money at
80 per cent. year.
The day laborers lot is even worse,
if such thing is possible. The lowest
Chinese cody lives in luxury compared
with the Sicilian day laborer. The re-
suit of this is that agriculture, which
is the chief support OF Sicily, has be-
come totally ruined, The petty farm
ers and peasantry are held in complete
slavery by the capitalists and land
owners.

KNOWLEDGE
