A long time has passed since Napo-
leon declared that Europe must be-
come either republican or Cossack;
and Europe is neither the one nor the
other. Yet there is q base of truth
underlying the brigand-E mperor's cpl
gram. In all Western Europe democ-
racy has made tremendous strides
since England put the loser of Water
100 on his rock of St. Helena; and the
first general census OF Russia, Just
taken, shows that the population of the
Czar's domfnions exceeds 1923, 600. 900
souls. With the growth of constitu-
sional institutions in other lands the
5lav has increased his stature. Rus
STA to-day has two and one-half times
she population of Germany and more
Than three times the population of
France or the United Kingdom. There
Is no single Power on the Continent
It is doubtful if there are any two
Powers-that could whip her, main
:ains the Commercial Advertiser, if
Russian armies were led with a fair
degree Of ability and provided with
IN efficient commissariat department.,

Diamonds in a Volcano.

An interesting discovery from a
geological point Of view was recently
made, says LIE Genie Civil, by an ex-
plorer in the mountains Of Whites
Hook, Natal. On the summit of an
extinct vol Gano, on the edge of a lake
that occupies the crater, soundings
revealed a layer of sand ~inclosing
small diamonds. It would be inter
esting to know whether these diamonds
were there accidentally, that is as the
result of washing operations carried
on by the natives, or whether this dis
covery corresponds to an actual mine
of diamonds, for the hills of Whites
Hook are not situated in regions
known to be diamond bearing. On
the last hypothesis, the presence of
precious stones in the crater of q vol.
cano would doubtless throw some
light on the formation OF the gems in
nature.

Government Bank Notes.

Curiously enough, the United States
government has its bank note printed
ON paper made by a private firm, the
pulp being a mixture of linen, cotton
and silk, the silk threads coming into
prominence after passing through the
printing machine. There are some
nine kinds of Bank of England notes.
all of them printed on somewhat SINH,
lar paper, but they are now always in
two Or three colors inScotland. French
notes are of paper that has hair in it's
pulp, the hairs coming out SO strong
when photographed as to render n
attempt at forgery on that line impos-
slble, While some nations use colored
INKS, the only ink used by the United
States is black, characterized as q
wonderfully hard and dry preparation,
n said to be manufactured in a spe-
clal manner from napthha smoke.

What Your Teeth Can Tell.

1T is possible" said a well-known
dentist, for a medical man to tell
0 Of the disposition and constitu-
ton of a person by the teeth than by
any other part Of the body.
1.-THE first thing that an army doctor
does when a man is brought up for en-
ilstment is to look OF his teeth. If thew
show any signs Of decay, it is evident
that the mans constitution is delicate.
and his services as a soldier are i'm.
mediately declined. Men with irrecu-
lar teeth-teeth Uneven and imperfect
declined by medical men where
there are arduous duties to perform.
1t is said to be a sign of bodily weak
ness.
another popularity noticeable in
many persons is a spotted tooth. This
IS 9 tooth covered with dark specks.
and is usually found among persons Of
weak intellect; it is in fact, a sign of in
sanity. Large teeth show braininess.
more especially if they be regular. 4
set OF perfect teeth is the surest sign Of
= good constitution"

The London Times publishes an

The London Times publishes an ex-
haustive account of the remarkable
exploration in northern Babylonia OF
the Haynes University of Pennsyl-
yania expedition, which for five years
has been excavating the great mounds
Of Nuffar, the site of the ancient city
Of Nippur, the sacred city of Multi, or
the older Bel of the Semites. They
form, says the Times, the greatest dis
soveries of modern times, carrying the
history Of civilization back to an an
tiquity never thought of. Here is
one suggestive passage: "In the face
Of this evidence from Nippur we may
have to reconsider the question of
Chaldean influence on. Egypt, and
possibly reverse the old theory that
the tower of Urgur rests upon a mas
sivs brick platform of crude brick.
Excavations conducted below revealed
the existence of a second pavement of
much finer construction built of kiln
burnt bricks Of great size, the dimen-
sions being fifty centimeters square
and Of great thickness. Nearly all of
these bricks were inscribed, and bore
the stamps of Sargon I. and Naramsin,
his son, and their date, therefore, is
just one thousand years prior to the
buildings of Urgur, namely, B. G.
$500. The priority of Chaldea in the
use Of the keystone arch is clearly es-
tablished by further explorations of
seven metres below the pavement of
Urgur, and 4.57 metres below that of
Since there we're no great
temples to crumble into ruin, it must
have taken many centuries to build
up the great mass of debris found
there. The estimate of from 1900 to
1000 years before the time of Sargon
does not seem too high"
The Opelousas courier., 1897-12-11

The Rev. DR.. Barrows, of Chicago,
said In a recent lecture: 1.-THE time
will come, before two centuries have
passed, when the centre of the uni
verse will be at the mouth of the Hud-
son, or more probably on the south
west shores of Lake Michigan, instead
Of on the Thames"

General Lew Wallace says that ate,
. diligent search for a short name for
the hero of his great book, he came
across the name "Hur" in the Book of
Genesis, and by adding "Ben," which
means "the son Of" he obtained q
name both short and odd.

THE DAISY.

Are you never weary
or the world below2
Dearest little daisy,
Tell me all you know.
Is your life all glalness,
All so fair and bright?
Eravest little lower,.
Is 1t ever night?
Can't you see the shadows
OF the autumn ewes?
Hear the qniverins sadness
OF the falling leaves?
Farewell, gentle daisy
Will yeu tell mo more
When / loarn the language
I've not learned before?

Brightest little daisy,
Nodding in the grass.
Swaying with the breezes
AS they gently pass;
Now q look of wonder
In your golden eye
Tell me what you whisper
To the passing sky.
Tell me, little daisy,
With your petals white.
Do you love the green fields
And the sunshine bright3
Dainty little flower,
Full Of light and love,
Can you hear the lark sing
In the clouds above?
