advance of Prince George of Greece,
but one fails to see the point of com
parison. With this class of papers 1t
is defence of the policy of the Govern
mcnt. no matter how frivolous or far
fetched IT may he.
The true inwnrdness of the policy is
given boldly y those who attack IT,.
II is a financial reason. German bond
holders possess pretty nearly the en-
tire state loan of Greece. French,
English and Austrians are the happy
possessors of the Government bonds of
Turkey. \ war between the two ma
tions would complicate the financial
question considerably. Both Turkey
and Greece in time of war, would
largely increase their liabilities and
there would he less chance of liquida-
ton The debt of Turkey is 1921 ,000,-
600. while that of Greece is over S107,-
100000. 1t can be well seen that the
investors have been bringing pressure
TO bear upon the various Governments
interested. 1t is not the first time
that the great banking firms have put
a stop to war.
Whether the mass of the people who
own no banks and who never hope to,
but who sympathize intensely with
Greece in her action toward Crete, will
be able to obtain reversal of the
present policy, is quite a problem.
There is no doubt about the pop
ularity of Greece among the proleta-
riat and when once its passions are
aroused no European Government can
hold them. If bankers have been able
at times to prevent war, the mass of
the people have, in their turn, swept
their Governments into war against
the wishes of sovereigns and cabinets.
AS was remarked the other day, wait
till the ice breaks up and then the
Great White Gar will talk.

The Roman Catholic world, and in
deed the whole world, is looking for
ward as to who shall fill the papal
chair upon the death of Leo Mi, and
how he will be elected. Up to recently
the various Catholic powers claimed
the right to veto over the election, the
Emperor of Austria tried to use this
right at the election of Plus TX, but
his messenger arrived too late. Re-
Gently the right has been formally
abolished. At the last conclave it was
announced to the representatives OF
the Catholic powers that no interfer.
ence on the part of the state would be
tolerated. Indeed the Cardinals have
determined to retire from Rome and
hold their conclave in some more fav.
orable place if they do not get the alb.
solute independence they desire. II
would be odd if that Favorable place
should prove to be America, but how
the prelates would be chased by the
reporters.

THE Story Of a Pine Board is the
title Of an article by w. S. HARDWOOD in
St Nicholas. Mr.. HARDWOOD says Of the
numbering IN Wisconsin and Minnesota:
About 4,I6o, GOO, 900 feet of logs
were cut in the season of lS95-that is
TO say, what is equivalent to 4, I60,0 00,-
600 pieces of board ~ inches square and
! inch think wonder If even the lum-
Der men themselves, and the log cutters,
and the manufacturers of lumber in the
great mills, realize what an enormous
amount OF lumber this is. Why, it
would build a house around the globe,
with a main room ten feet high and a
large attic. ceiling up the inside walls
and roof with sweet, fragrant pine. 1t
would put down a matched floor, and
then. when the house was all com
pleted. there would be left enough lum.
Der to build tight board fences on either
side of the house 81 feet high the whole
distance around the globe. Besides all
this there would be shingles enough for
a good portion Of the house. and then,
if the mighty builder of such a globe
girdling house wanted 70 ft it up a lit
| tie more neatly, there would be a large
supply of laths, and. / suppose. the
plasterers could furnish him enough
stucco and lime.
Or if be wanted 20 construct a ROOF
| shelter for all the people on the globe
our mighty builder could accommodate
them all. allowing to each man, woman
and child a clear space of two square
feet in which to stand, and still have
room left over for 500, 900. 600 men
with the same room in which to stand.
And, 10 lCR at it in still another way.
this same builder would have material
to construct a bicycle path of pine, a lit
Gle over two feet wide. from the earth
20 the moon. for there would be nearly
500. 900 miles of board a foot wide and
an inch thick. In saving this lumber mp
into the required length and thickness
there was n great waste IN sawdnst-so
great, indeed. that the sawdust pile
would stand liz feet high On a city
square and 500 feet square az the base.
and this is saying nothing about the
vast amount of pieces of slabs which
are split up into kindlings.
This enormous quantity OF lumber
represents merely the output OF we

the stare of Wisconsin. and the other ! n
the northern part of the state OF Minnie

cut up there will not be a piece OF pine
