A FORGOTTEN KING.
Once He FILLED "A Place. Bot Now He IL
Unknown.

Unknown.
Frances IL, once king Of Naples,
passed away up in the Austrian Tyrol
recently, says the Buffalo Courier 1t
is a striking commentary on the march
of events that few people of this gen.
Grafton remember anything about him.
For thirty years he has had no more TO
do with shaping the course of Naples
than had citizen of the United States;
for he belonged to the old order which
passed away when Garibaldi fought aud
Cavour planned. sfter his overthrow in
1861 he attempted 70 organize re-
volts against the new Italy, but success
did not attend him. He became forth
with en- anachronism in Italian history.
Francis was born in 1886 and sue
ceeded his father, Ferdinand IL, as
king of Naples in 1883. Like the young
ear, he began his reign by iberating
prisoners, but hopes that he would re-
move the abuses of his fathers reign
were soon disappointed. Then came
thc onset of Garibaldi. The king fed
before the attack of the republican
soldier, and, with his queen and fam
ity, took refuge in the fortress of Ca
eta, which fen after siege, during
which the queen, Bavarian princess,
displayed notable courage. Francis
reign was short and tumultuous and its
sudden termination was deep disap-
pointment to an ambitious man
The misfortune of this king was that
he appeared on the scene at the time
when the Italian national spirit was
ready to express itself in action, under
the lead of Sardinia. Particularism
had had a long day IN Italy. The
little states were extremely jealous of
one another, and up to this time no CO.
hesive force had been found. That the
states of the peninsula did well in
drawing together into more powerful
kingdom there can be no question.
Italy is still in g bad way in many re-
spects, bat she Is far better off than
she would have been had she continued
to divide her strength by upholding
group of small states like Naples.

Cleaning Kitnhsn Mnndunr,.

A houselleeper with half a century's
experience says that cleaning kitchen
tables and sinks with soap is u great
mistake. 1t disintegrates the fiber of
the wood and turns it yellow. She says
that very hot water and borax, or very
hot water alone with plenty of strength
win give the very best results This is
all very true, provided one uses cheap
soaps made of chemicals and ali sorts
of denominations, but homemade soap,
which should abound in every we'll
regulated kitchen, will not produce
this effect; and the work is much more
easily and quickly done than with
simple hot water and scrubbing. One
of the points of grace in women's work
is to have learned to do things easily
as well as to do them thoroughly. A
woman might, with much more profit,
occasionally buy a new table than to
wear her strength and life out clean
ing the old one, when by little knowl-
edge of science and chemistry she
could neutralize the grease and wash
off the compound of.oil and alkali with
a few dashes of boiling water.-N. Y.

Animal Humbugs,

In military stables horses are known
to have pretended to be lame in ORDER
to avoid going to military exercise.
A chin panzee had been fed on cake
when sick; after his recovery he often
feigned coughing in order to procure
dainties. The cuckoo, as is well
known, lays its eggs in another birds
nest, and to make the deception surer
it takes away one of the other birds
eggs. Animals are conscious of their
deceit, as shown by the fact that they
try TO act secretly and noiselessly; they
show a sense of guilt if detected; they
take precautions in advance to avoid
discovery; in some cases they manifest
regret and repentance. Thus, bees
which steal hesitate often before and
after their exploits, as if they feared
.punishment A naturalist describes
how his monkey committed theft;
while he pretended to sleep the animal
regarded him with hesitation, and
stopped every time his master moved
or seemed on the point of awakening.
