SHOCKED THE PR1NCEss.-Several
members of the German Second Guard

lake the other day and neglected the
formality of using bathing clothes. The
spot they selected is retired one, but,
unfortunately for the bathing warriors, q
carriage road runs along the lake shore
near by. Just as the men emerged
from their bath and climbed up, drip
ping from the water, a carriage drove
by In plain view, and among the women
it contained was the sister of the EN-
press, who, shocked beyond expression,
became hysterical and tainted. The
matter came to the Emperor's ears and
measures were taken to discover the
culprits. None of the soldiers belong
ing to the Guard would confess, and, as
a consequence, the entire regiment is
now being punished for the offense OF
the real offenders. Extra drills have
been ordered daily, and, it is announced,
all furloughs in the regiment will be
denied until until the guilty soldiers
are given up for punishment.

THE WORLDS BEER MUG.-A French
statistician has become interested in
the question whether more wine than
beer is drunk on the globe. He figures
out the annual production of wine in
the whole world at $4,000, 900 gal
Ions, while 1850, 600 gallons OF
beer are annually brewed. The con-
sumption of beer is, therefore, 1885,
100000 gallons larger than the con-
sumption of wine. 1he largest beer
consumers are Germany, with 1885,
100000 gallons of beer, and England
with l.269, ,0O0,0 900 gallons. Then comes
the United States with 999, 100000 gal.
Ions, Austria with 37S,0O0,0O0, and
France with 270,0O0,000 gallons. Gu.
rously enough, little Belgium con-
sumes almost as much beer as France
and is next in order.

Ii HUNG IN PARIs.-Upon the arri.
val of Ii Hung Chang at Paris the other
day very comical incident occurred,
which for moment perpleXed the
diplomats and the gentlemen of his
suite present very much. The terrace
of the Grand Hotel, where apartments
had been reserved for the Chinese Vice
roy, was lined with guests and their
friends anxious to catch glimpse of
the famous Oriental statesman. AT
the head of the stairs stood the gigantic
PORTER of the hotel, in his brilliant uni
form, resembling somewhat that of q
Swiss Guard of the Pope in the Vati-
can. This figure is very we'll known to
all foreigners who have visited Paris;
fully aware of his Importance, he stood
there erect, awaiting the distinguished
guest. LII Hung Chang, arriving,
climbed carefully out of his carriage,
and walking up the few stairs, caug ht
sight of the dign6ed individual, who
upon his uniform wears heavy silver
chain, with large medal. Ii Hung
Chang must evidently have though
him person of high rank, and stretch
ing out his hand toward him, grasped
that of the porter, pressing it long and
warmly, at the same time making as
deep a bow as his advanced age per-
mitted. 1t is not difficult to see now
ridiculous this scene appeared TO all
preseot, and how embarrassed the
gentlemen of bis suite must have felt.
The gigantic porter, however, is now
more than happy. and has grown at
least one inch in every direction; that
is, in his own estimation.

we tried Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera

very speedy relief. We regard it as

market for bowel complaints.-Miss Z.

certainly is the best medicine ever put
on the market for dysentery, summer

prompt relief when used in reasonable
time and the plain printed directions
are followed. Many mothers have ex-
