The Roman Carnival.

For the carnival, n festival which orig
inally began on the Feast OF the Epiphany
ard continued to sh Wednesday, when the
fast of Lent made an end of the preceding
feasting means liter ally Farewell to
Meat; and was about as much observed
in the time of julius Caesar as was Wash
ingtons Birthday and the. Fourth of July.
1t was in the amphitheater, not in the
carnival, that there was debauch OF
blood. There, on ascending terraces, a
multitude gathered, protected from the
sun by canopy Of spangled silk. Be-
Meath was an arena, three box Xes wide
carpeted with sand, with cinnabar and
borax. In it the fighters assembled,
Sarmatians, Sicambrians, Parthians and
Ethiopians, their different idioms uniting
in single cry: Caesar, we salute you. >
The sunlight filtering through the spangled
canopy checkered their tunics with burn
ing spots, danced on their spears and
helmets, dazZled the spectators eyes.
From above descended the caresses of
flutes; the air was sweet with perfumes,
alive with multi-colored notes, the ter
races were parterres of blending hues,
and into that splendor hundred lions,
their tassefed tails sweeping the sand,
entered obliquely Leisurely they turned
their huge, intrepid heads; to their jowls
wide creases came. There was a glitter
of fangs. shiver that moved the name,
a flight of arrows, mounting murmurs, the
crouch of beasts preparing to spring, a
deafening roar, and, abruptly, tumultu-
Gus mass, the flash Of knives, the snap OF
bones. the cry OF the agonized, the fury
of beasts transfiX ed, the shrieks of the
mangled, combat hand to fang, from
which lions fell back, their jaws torn
asunder, while others retreated, black
body swaying beneath their terrible teeth,
and. insensibly, descending quiet. Per-

The Canadian girl knows how to dress
anc she is particularly famous for the
conscientious manner in which she takes
care Of her health. The extreme rigor
of the winters of Canada, coupled with the
universal tcndency to outdoor sports, com
pels her to recognize the necessity for care
full clothing When the call comes for it
she dons mittens, moccasins and fur caps,
with chanois under jackets and every
thing possible ever devised to keep up
the fine circulation in her strong young
limbs. When she goes golfing she wears
a scarlet coat as much like her brothers
as possible and her bicycling costume is
made first to serve the purpose of warmth
and comfort, with what beauty left after
these other essential qualities have been

THE CANADIAN GIRL.

The point where the Canadian girl differs
from her American sister is sngularly
elusive one, but IL certainly does exist, and
to a remarkable degree. Perhaps she is pre-
eminently superior in her love for and abil-
ity i'll strong physical exertions There is
rarely anything of the timid, exotic strain
about her She thinks no more of walking
to the next town than does the American
girl Of walkinga few squares. Golfisplayed
by her as whole, not as the Individual, as
is the case i'll the States Hockey, thanks
to the ice 50 loyal to northern rinks, is n
certainty to her during all the winter
months and she enters into the dangerous
sport with fatthfuiness rarely witnessed
in the girl farther south, who, by tempera-
ment and circumstances. takes such pleas
ures as supplement- rather than recog-
nized part of her amusement.

international BimetaIlism.

The only countries that have
escaped the financial embarass
ments of the past ten years and
continued to improve industrially
have been silver standard coun-
tries, while the country that has
suffered more perhaps than any
other is gold standard AnstI ALA.
Australia had more gold per cap
lta than any other nation except
France and Belgium, and practi-
cally no silver or paper money,
yet she experienced a financial
storm far more severe than any
which we have passed through.
Practically all the banks in
Australia suspended, and were
enabled to resume only by forcing
the depositors to take bank stock
for their deposits.
Had such steps been taken by
the United States the cry of re-
pudiation would have been sound
ed on every hand, but it has come
to pass that anything that an
Englishman does financially is
emlnently proper, so we have
heard nothing of Australia repu-
dlatlon, yet we are deferred from
bringing financial relief to the
world by the cry "repudiation." {"
Lord Lidderdale, formerly cover
nor of the Bank of England, is
perhaps the most distinguished
banker London has known in this
generation. This great financier.
at banquet given at the Mansion
House in London last year, used
tnlS language: "lf the American
people had the courage of convic
ton and adopted the double
standard of gold and silver. no
matter what the ratio, they would,
inside a year, command the trade
of the East India straits, China
and Japan. Unless England
should follow suit and adopt a BIZ
metallic standard, she would in
side of eighteen months, cease to
be a commercial factor in the
markets of the world" Yet it
seems that nothing can move the
American people to assert their
financial manhood.-Chicago Dis.

Look here, Mr.. Speaker" said
Senator Tillman, 81 wish YOU

which the dispensary bill can be

"Let me see," drawled the

blandness, "that is bill to over
ride the decision of United

"No, SIR" retorted Senator Till
man hotly, "it is to express the
wishes of the people"
"The people of the United
States or the people of South Car
olina 2" inquired the Speaker,
with tantalizing smile upon his
round, fat face.
"The people of South Carolina"
replied Senator Tillman quickly,
beginning to realize that he was
not making much headway with
his request.
"The legislature of South Car
olina legislates for the people of
that State" was the Speakers
non-committal, but exasperating
response to the Senator.
"That fellow Reed thinks he
is Atlas, with the responsibility
of the world on his shoulders"
remarked Senator Tillman in
disgust, as he retired from the
tilt with the Speaker, minus an
assurance of n special order for
his pet Washington Post.
IT'S FALSE.
Speaking to-day of an alleged

Reed in reference to the Latimer
