Phrase. f.om Scott and Others.

In spite of scotts continued popu- iarity. few people remember that from "oid Mortality" we have "A sea of up- turned faces" and Byron is never thanked for Flesh and blood can't bear it" The most humorous and least ex- empiary of British parsons" is known to have thought "They order things bet ter in France" and "God tempers the wind to the shorn lamb." but we seldom credit him with q saw tho iron enter into his soul" Yet that keen image Of grief. so often on our lips. may al- so be found in the Sentimental Jour ney."
 cowper is comparatively little read the immortal John Gilpin" always ex- cepted-therefore we may be forgiven if the source of hand and glove" or "Her dear live hundred friends" has slipped our memories. The same may be said Of Rogers ITO know her was to love her." Congreve's Married in haste and repent at leisure" Farquhar's lover the hills and far away" and southey's March of intellect" Sir Philip sid- ney. who was poet. philosopher, and, best Of all, hero. should share q better fate. How many can tell that 1t was he who first said in English. God helps those who help themselves" ?-The Cornhill Magazine.

Finland Politically.

{ Politically the position of the Fin flanders is peculiar Their country en- joys large measure of freedom and internal independence, yet 1t Is under the ultimate supreme control of Rus sia. Most natives demur to the Idea that 1t has been absorbed In the Rus sian empire, and they point to the fact that each successive czar during the present century, on assuming office as grand duke of Finland, has entered into solemn pledge to maintain unal- tered the original rights and constitu- .tional laws of the grand duchy. copy of the first imperial warrant to this effect, granted in 1909, is hung up on view in all the churches of Finland. The administration of the country is presided over by a governor general who Is appointed by the czar, and with that functionary there Is associated a secretary of state, who must be na- tive of Finland.
 The four legislative orders are con- voked every three years, and each sits separately, but they may deliberate in common if this Is asked by one of the orders and supported by another of them. The privileges of the nobility have been abolished, except 80 far as concerns representation in their own diet, where, unlike the other orders, they are allowed, if absent, to vote by proxy. The clerical chamber Is al- ways presided over by the archbishop, and includes the bishop, and twenty eight deputies elected by the priests, al- so two chosen by the universities, and certain representatives of the public schools. The third chamber consists of fifty-six representatives of the bour- geois class, one from each town, except in places with population of over 5000, where one extra member is al- lowed for every additional 6,000 inhabi- tants. s
 With the exception of the nobility, clergy, women, soldiers and servants, all ratepayers in towns have vote, but the rating qualification isShigh, and ex- cludes large portion of the inhabi- tants from the electoral register. If a resident has not an Income of more than 200 marks yearly. he is not rated, and consequently has no vote. What is known as the. Swedish party, com- prising the bztter class ofstdwnspeople, defend Spfaral voting Those refermers who call themselves the Finnish Ma tional party advocate both lowering and simpliacation of the franchise The fourth, or peasant chamber, consists of sixty members, and every 2,0OO electors return a representative. Members of the parliament must be natives of Fin land, like all those who vote for them.- The Westminster Review. /

Railway Travel in India.

The railway handbooks abound with curious information and rules inter- esting to the naturalist. "Sheeps, pigs, goats, calves, If sent singly, small tame deer, etc, ,and tiger, pather, and cheetah cubs in cages, and which are so young as to be harmless, if carried by passen- ger train, are charged at double the dog rates for each animal" "Cats, ferrets, mongooses, monkeys, and rabbits, se- cured with collar and chain, are chargeable as dogs"
 Prudent natives, when shifting their quarters during the snake season, fre- quently take along the family mon- goose as precautionary measure. For those unfamiliar with this unpreposses- sing but harmless little beast it may be here remarked that he belongs to the ichneumon caste, and as his voca- tion is the killing of snakes, he is every- where welcome visitor. He looks something like an undersized otter, is quick and spasmodic in his move- ments, and is often found under the bed in long-vacant Dak bungalow, whence he suddenly seutt1es away as the door is opened, and disappears with a whisk of his tailin the chimney place or down the nearest hole. \ At one station four coolies passed along the platform carrying aloft a 'charpie," on which reposed a. cheetah. chained and blindfolded. When we first caught sight of him he was sitting up like a cat with his ears lying flat against his head, wearing the sulky and injured look which all felines have un- der adverse circumstances. A few pas- sengers who got off before we reached Jodhpore were provided with falcons and hawks, some of them so large and bulky az to be rather unwieldly: and while these passengers fumbled for their tickets. the birds sat on their shoulders, or balanced themselves on their voluminous turbans. -Harper's Magazine.

Remained In that Attitude. ri, [from tho Chicago Heraldl
 Dayton. O., Oct. 2t.-ope Of the most remarkable exhibitions of power and influence of catalepsy. form of hys- teria that contracts the muscles and di- vests the subject of the sensation to voiition. occurred in this city few days since in which Thomas Purdy. iaborer. was the subject. In com' pany with several other workmen Pur- dy was engaged in digging trench.
 He was standing at the top of the trench with long-handied shovel re- moving the gravel which a workman below threw to the top. when with the suddenness of an electric flash the man became transnxed in position, as im- movable as a piece of statuary. He was in the act of raising the shovel when attacked. Ills right hand tightly ciutched the shovel handle near Its end. and the left hand near the middle. His left leg was advanced. and slightly bent at the knee, while the blade of the shovel pointed at an inclination of about thirty degrees. His eyes were closed.
 Every muscle of the 1.-the and com pactly built workman was as taut and rigid as though constructed of iron. One of the workmen who observed his con- dition got out Of the trench and under took to remove the shovel held by the silent workman. The shovel, though, was clutched with an iron grip, and, although he tugged hard he was unable to remove 1t from the clutches of the possessor. The mans feet were firmly planted on the ground as though nailed, and he stood there as rigid and mos tionless as piece of statuary.
 Physicians were summoned to the scene, and the marvellous sight was witnessed by hundreds of citizens. Sev- eral unsuccessful attempts to remove the shovel from his hands were made, when Police Captain Alaback, assisted by several officers, succeeded in remov- Ing IL rom his grasp, although It seem- ed that they would surely break off his fingers in so, doing. The mans heart beat with the ordinary pulsations, and the lungs were performing their voca- tion. F s
 After the man had stood in this position for over two hours he was picked like piece of marble, placed in the patrol wagon, and conveyed to a hospital. He remained substantially in the same condition for two whole days, during which time his bedside was amost constantly surrounded with physicians who were intensely interest ed in the case. There were indications that the man was conscious of all his surroundings. Although improved in condition, he has not yet been able to relate his experience.

 New York. Nov. s.-To-day's market was almost at a standstill. and politics received more attention than stocks. The weekly statement of averages of the associated banks shows a loss in lawful money of s46s.o00. and an in- crease In the loans of SLIPS, ,00o. These two items are mildly encouraging. as Indicating demand for capital. The two changes are reflected more accurately than usual in the deposits. and the net result Is a comparatively decrease in the surplus reserve. -'>
