81 Contrast Between tho HE

Points 81 Contrast Betw6en the Rich m
America and In Europe.
The English sand the Americans are
both rich, but which are the richer?s
Perhaps the statisticians know OF can
find ont, but it is not certain that the
statistical answer would give the infor-
nation that one really wants and which
involves the distribution Of wealth as
we'll as its mere existence. Most Amer
leans have to work; but, as is well
known, considerable proportion Of
English people toll not nor spin, and
make no pretense of doing any thing tor
a living. Is that because the English
are richer than we, or b it a matter 81.
taste or a result Of primogeniture? So.
also it appears from close study Of
documents submitted by Anthony Troll
lope and other contemporaneous histo-
rians- that British gentlemen in re-
spectacle circumstances employ from
five to fifty servants and have several
houses apiece, all of which they live in,
and travel much besides. An Ameri-
can who lives in that way is looked
upon as man Of very exceptional re-
sources, but it would seem that an Eng
lish gentleman who does not live in that
way is thought to be somewhat strait
eaed. In England there are 800 OF 400
hunt clubs, and something like 20, 900
/ Britishers ride pretty regularly to
hounds. But hunting is an expensive
sport that takes both time and money.
These English seem to have both to
! spare.
A returned traveller was speaking of
the shoals of agreeable English people
he met in the Riviera and in all the
play places Of southern Europe. When
asked if they were rich people, he said
| not, but that they were able to live as
they did because they knew how ard
got their moneys worth. He thought,
! too. that the we'll to do English bad a
more complete domestic apparatus ready
! to hand than most Americans and
could spend a larger proportion of their
incomes on travel and amusement.
Houses and furniture and such expen-
| sive vanities they had already by in
1 heritance and were not compelled to
spend useful money in providing them.
Regarding the English habit of pub
/ fishing novels in three bound volumes
would the American buy novels in such
costly form? Are not all the habits of
living that we borrow from the British,
| from dock tailed horses to indoor men
servants, more costly than the customs
they supersede? They must have great
deal Of money to spend, those enterpris-
ing islanders. No one would hesitate
| to say that the Americans are richer
than the Russians, or the Italians, or
the Germans, or even the thrifty French,
but the Briton gives us pause. Is he
really richer than we are, or is he mere

Child Performers in Lond on.

Fain would l utter my protest
against chilu entertainers those poor
little mites with pale cheeks, sunken
eyes anu old faces who are expected
10 amuse a mixed company with
music hall pattcr aud coster dittieS
II the little creatures understand
what they sing, woe betide them; IL
is terrible 10 contemplate their fut-
ure. IL they do not, they are no bet
ter than well-trained monkeys and
ought togivc less pleasure TO Il grown
up aud ence.
Child life Is beautiful in itself in
its natural grace and unconscious
ness and Innocent seltiShness, but a
child who mods and winks and in
tonates like a low comedian, with
leering glance, alluring gestures and
a repertory OF double meaning is TO
me positively rcpulsive. Clever, no
doubt, the performance is, and, per-
harS, IL may do the child's moral
nature no great harm, but suffer IL
must in its physical constitution.

spoiled by the guests, fed on cakes
and sweetmeats, breathing the vi.

in an atmosphere OF slang, low fun,
and hard work, there can be little
hope OF a healthy and happy future
for IL. Ii we must have music hall
artists TO entertain our tiabby, eilete,
and worn.out company, let them at
least be men and women who under
stand what they say and are able To
take care OF themselves, not srbor
little farmed out mites bringing grist
to the mill OF their elders. What the
life means was vividly impressed on
me at once when l said To the

TIE antipathy between judges and
newspaper editors is by no means
confined 10 America. What is now
known as the Brausewetter scandal
in Germany arose out OF the disgrace
ful sone sideness of a Berlin Judge
pres ding n trial OF Prussian ed
itors for alleged contempt OF court
Brausewetter, the Judge, with the
connivance OF the crown prosecutor,
disgraced his Oifice by virtually join
ing with the prosecution. 1t is AZ
encouraging sign OF German progress
that not only the press but the bar
OF Berlin are unanimous in denounc-
ing the outrage. Only a bad Judge
would THIS violate his oath, and in
Germany, as in America, il is only
the bad judges who hate and fear
the press.

Canadian exhibitors OF agricultural
implements were deliberately
swindled out OF awards to which they
were entitled by venal and corrupt
Judges 1t is difficult, OF course, 10
dsprOve a charge OF this kind, but it
is equally difficult to prove it, and
the Canadians have not proved it,
Neither will most people familiar
with the subject believe that there is
any truth in the indictment. Under
the management OF John Boyd

Drilling I'm Corn.

Ii seems 10 me that corn is being
raised with the least thought and
many times with the least care OF
any Of our main farm crops. l have
had considerable experience in rails
ing IT, and think there are many
points in favor OF drilling II in rather
than planting IL in the old way.
With the aid Of boy or man l can
drill ten acres in one day. When the
corn is up two or three IN. with u

Last year l left about twenty feet
which did not drag and the dilcr-
encc could be plainly seen during the
whole season in the summer grass in
the row.
The difference In cutting hilled or
drilled corn is greatly in favor OF corn
planted IN the hill. l pay 81 per
acre for cutting planted corn and
81. 80 for drilled corn. A reaper will
work very successfully cutting drilled
corn, as the knife never has TO cut
but one or two stalks at time. or
course the reaper cannot be used
when pumpkins are raised; but the
main difference is when the crop is
harvested i can yet much larger
yield per acre OF grain and fodder.
