WORLD POLITICS.

category as running a hotel, edit
ing newspaper, and hosting a
heavy safe to a high floor. In
deed, as to the second outlet for
genius, the direction of interna-
tionai affairs is nowadays a regu-
lar branch of newspaper work.
Still, diplomatists persist in stick
ing to their stubborn craft like
burrs to the trousers of a climber
of Tantalus. international politics
will not go the way the amateur
genius of the age will have it, so
the diplomatists think they may
as well be and not have been for a
while yet. They will hold on
to their jobs at least until
some better way than theirs for
restraining the devil in nations
prove its merit by results. When
the Turkish outrages in Armenia
were horrifying the world, many
good people in the United King.
dom clamored to have their ma
ton jump in and smash the Turk,
leaving the risk of general war
that would incarnadine' the world
to heaven. Lord Salisbury, how
ever, had no dispatches from
heaven to authorize him to take
action that, to all human ken,
would almost certainly involve
the sacrifice of millions of human
beings for the peace and comfort
of thousands. Another wonderful
development of the genius of the
age, for having things done by
short cut, which was manifested at
that time was the echo of the Bri-
fish clamor for war in the United
States of America. But the good
people and the just men writing
the papers in that country did
not call on their own nation
to take hand in max |
ing the Turk behave himself. |
They adopted pious resolutions
and exuded printed rhetoric by |
the yard to the effect, virtually,
that the British arm was divinely |
ordained to wipe out all earthly
wrong and make a full end of in
iquity among all nations. There
was little, but very little, sug
gestion on the part of these lyce-
um and newspaper disposers of
human destiny that the United
States had any call for grasping
the whip of Nemesis, although the
pointings of providence gave that
nation rather more of u pretext
for getting after the Sultan with a
sharp switch than they did any of
the old world Powers. For it was
the fact that the Turk had treated
American missionaries of the Cos
pei of peace with scarcely less in
dignity than the Armenians, and
the good Offices of the American
minister of state in Turkey Oh be-
half of his abused countrymen and
countrywomen were met with
sheer contempt, or evaded
with that consummate capacity
for acted as we'll as spoken lying
in which the Turk is supremely
peculiar. Now that Greece has
rushed or been pushed into Crete
-ostensibly to make the "evil
beasts" OF. that island stop cutting
each others throats, but like as
not to serve the dirty purpose of
one or more of the Powers-there /
is resumption of the clamor for
Great Britain to cut loose from
the trammels of European diplo
macy, at least to get out of the
European orchestra, and, even as
some would have it happen, go |
right in with the Greeks and {
essay to finish their work for
them. IL Great Britain got out of
the general agreement now, she }
would simply become nonentity .

THE RANGE FIRE.

Watch and see that clinker is not al.
lowed to form on the Innings.
In giving the fire thorough raking
remove all clinkers with the poker.
At night the firebox should be even
full of coal after raking out all the
dead ashes and cinders and putting on
the nights supply.
The ashes should never accumulate
in the ashpan until they reach the CRATE.
II this happens often the CRATE will
soon be burned out.
Never use the shaker when it is possi-
BILE to avoid it; instead use the poker
freely, and you will have brighter
fire and use less coal.
Remember that shaking banks the
fire down into a solid mass, and as the
air cannot circulate through it the
draft will be poor.
When the fire from any cause be-
comes dull do not stir it over the top
or put In wood, but rake out the ashes
and put on the drafts.
Keep the stove well polished; it the
lids become greasy turn them over and
let the top of the lid come next to the
fire until the grease is all burned off;
then polish as usual.

So small life-so short life,
And yet so much to do!
Brief days with aching sorrows rife,
Brief years to struggle through!
Strong men cry out for time, for time,
Only the time to build,
To see their structures grow sublime,
To see their dreams fulfilled;
With passionate hearts, with willing hands,
They strive in sun and rain,
Till threads are twisted into strands,

But death Is faster far than they,
Far faster than desire:
The turrets that should greet the day
Shall never brave its fire.

LABOR-SAvlNG DEVICE.
Intended to Hold Flooring Before II
Has Been Nailed.

Many carpenters, when laying floor
find it possible to fit the strips of stuff
closely enough by placing a block OF
wood against the outer edge Of the free
board, and stri<ingly it smartly with
hammer. Then when the tongue of one
strip has been wedged into the grooves
of the other the nail is driven which
holds the newly laid board in place.
But with some kinds of stuff, especial
ly hardwood, it is desirable to hold the
strips temporarily with some sort of
jack or with chisel until the work
man is ready to drive nails. IraA. Smith,
of East Berkshire, VT, who is an archi-
tect and builder, has been so dissatis-
fled with tlH usual methods adopted in
such cases that he has invented a
'squeezer" of his own. The sketch re-
