Praise 20 the Face.

Harper's Bazaar: once saw father
walk up to a map his little boy had made
and pinned on the wall He stood before
it long time in silence and in silence
walked away. The little fellow was sit
ting in the room, and his father knew he
WAS there. He was watching with his
eager childs eyes, waiting anxiously for
a word OF approval. AS none came, his
poor little face fell unhappily. Straight
into the next room walked the father,
and said, carelessy;
Robert has drawn q very clever little
map in here Look at it when you go
in"
"Dd you tell him it was clever"
asked a judicial listener, following from
the room where little Robert sat
"Why. no; ought to have done so. 1
never thought to mention it,"
well, you ought to be ashamed OF
yourself" was the deserved reply 60
back now, and tell him"
We ought all OF us to be ashamed OF
ourselves q dozen times day for like
sins OF omission. 1t costs 80 little to
say nice things-and the result in anoth-
er's pleasure is out OF all proportion to
our trouble.
Praise to the face; open disgrace"
No such thing. The proverb is wrong.
Praise to the face is one OF the sweetest
things on earth, and there is no disgrace
in it, unless untruth enters, or unless
the praise be undeserved. 1t is the more
grateful, because one may ask for open
praise and receive by asking. When it
comes thus at call it is not praise; its
fine favor is quite gone. and it is but
hattery.

Turkeys Enormous Debt.

Everyone knows the rotten state OF the
Ottoman empire in other respects, and its
financial condition is no exception to this
rule. Between 1851 and 1873 the gov
eminent contracted fifteen loans, the en-

At length, in 1873, the policy of paying
old debts by contracting new ones at q

her coupons in gold and the other half in
bonds. which were to draw interest at the
rate Of five per cent, with the illusory

At the Berlin congress in 1873 the great

In work on the morphine habit, late
ly published IN Paris, much interesting
information is given concerning morphin-
ism and p1orphinomania, some Of which
will be new to American readers. 1t is
stated that Germany, France and the
United States are the countries in which
the vice is most widespread, but that
it has its victims in Russia, Sweden and
Turkey, and that even in the extreme

with ID per cent; then merchants s per
cent; while peasants, clersymen and pol.
iticians occupy the lowest positions on
the list. Women of means are the most
numerous class among the females, AZ

men, 10 per cent. In Germany there are
entire villages whose inhabitants are all
addicted to the use Of the drug, but the
general belief that the morphine habit is
more extensively practiced in Paris than
in any other city is contradicied. Nor

Bulgaria and the other states at that
time separated from Turkey were each
required TO assume their portion of the
debt. In 1881 wholesale conversion Of
all outstanding obligations took place,
but this step did not by any means put
stop to further borrowing. Four per cent
loans were issued in 1890 and 1891, and
one at 81, per cent in 1894. But the
most important loan in recent years was
that at per cent in 1896, based on the
security of the Turkish customs. The
amount issued was about $4,000 900

was taken in Paris.

relief. Tho doctor said was not
strong enough to stand the operation,
but that he would cut tine nerves in

only relieved me for the timebeing,
and three times again have l gone
through the same operation without
receiving any help. Utterly discour-
aged, went to Or. Cropsey for treat
ment He would not promise mo any
thing because he saw the effect of the
knife, and yet he has relieved me in
few treatments. My face is free from
jerking, and am stronger than at any
time since those operations. The time
has gone by when have been having
those terrible pains, as have had
time and again, with no sign of return.
