How short lived are the animosities of nationsI A few months ago there was no epithet too harsh for the German em- peror. He was gibbeted ill music hall ditties, he was rallied at in the press, and in society unrepeatable things were said of him. Now there is a distinct re- vival of the batter about "blOOd being thicker than water," and we are rapidly returning to the conclusion that the kaiser is a splendid fellow. The naval architects toasted him with enthusiasm, and with happy tact the master of many legiOns has sent 0 gold wreath to the First Royal dragons. of which he is colonel, to remind England that Prussia fought by her side at Waterloo. The truth is that the loves and hates of na- tions arc founded, not on kin~L,ip nor on history, but on self inter(,.t, nd as this changes publlr feeling changes too Saturday Revi,.w.

Prince Bismarck is a great pipe col lector, and the gem of his collection has curious history. Many years ago. as Bismarck was strolling in the suburbs of Friederichsruh with his two hounds, he was accosted by Bohemian peddler and asked to buy a plain meerSchaum pipe of tho typo that Bismarck most af- fectcd. At first Bismarck declined, but the peddler claimed for the pipe power of forecast and told him he would serve three emperors as minister, and that three important changes in his life would be foretold by accidents befalling the pipe.
 Laughing, Bismarck bought the pipe. He has sinco served three emperors- Two days before the historic moment when he was refused an audience the stem of his pipe separated and went to pieces Later he chipped piece from the side of the bowl, and within a month he was practically dismissed by the present emperor. The third sign has vet to come. Berlin Correspondent

Consumption Quarantine.

That consumption was contagious was
an old theory and the Spaniards, centuries
ago, were in the habit of destroying the
bedding and belongings of consumptives,
and In some cases even the house in which
they lived, for fear Of the spreading of the
plague. That 1t is not very actively con-
tagious is proved sufficiently by the fact
that the dwellers in cities are alive at all,
for statistics prove that from one-tenth to
one-fifth of all the deaths in large cities
are due directly or indirectly to the dis
ease, and that consequently number Of
sufferers from the disease must be present
in every large gathering Of people. FIX
cept in the later stages the patient is not
confined to his bed. He mingles In all so
cial and industrial avocations Of life. Not
infrequently he is "the life of the party"
