Between Norway and Sweden bond
f political union has existed for moro
than eighty years. Such, however, is
the radical difference between the two
Nations that, instead of being stout
cofdage, this bond of union is merely
a,limsy eobweb. Not only does it
fail to unite the people into one har.
monious body, declares the Atlanta
Constitution, but it sharply accentu.
ates the pecullarities which exist be.
tween them and renders amalgamation
impossible. While Sweden is strong.
~ disposed in favor of royal princi-
pies, Norway, on the other hand, is
strongly inclinced toward Republican,
ism. Both inherit in their veins the
fiery temper OF the old original vik-
inga and being of most inAammable
nature, the differences which exist be-
tween them often give rise to bitter

thought to be q lasting one. From
subsequent events, however, it ap-
pears that the conditions upon which

Ii Hung Chang said the Chinese
1aborer was superior to the laborer of
any other nationality because he
possessed in higher degree the three
great virtues-thrift, economy, tenn
perance. ''But the great statesman"
declares the New York World,
''overlooked greater virtue than any
of these, great though they be. That
il the virtue of ambition-capacity
and inclination to improve. This
virtue the Chinese laborer has not.
And that is why he is not on the one
hand desirable or on the other hand
dangerous.

The British army has rejected be-
cause of O false tooth d man who
sought to enlist. Had the decayed
tooth been left in its place, or even
habit been stopped, it would not have
1nsttered; but the fact of possessing
one "not grown on the premises" dis
qualified him for the service of his
queen. A lad was rejected by the
naval surgeon because his toes were
slightly curled, although this did not
prevent his walking or running in any
way. Still, forced marches do not
often fall to the lot OF naval officers.
