Commercial Geography Of Europe.

1t is interesting to observe the geo
graphical reasons for the distribution
of manufacturing industries. Cotton
spinning and weaving are confined in
Great Britain to a few places in the
west because there is the district of
cheapest coal and also specially moist
atmosphere owing to the effect of high
ground upon the misunderstanding
winds fresh from the sea; and for spin
ming and weaving cotton q moist
climate is very important. The French
coal fields are SO widely dispersed aud
comparatively unimportant that the
mills and factories are distributed, not
with regard to them, but with q view to
the convenience of obtaining local and
foreign supplies of raw material. The
wooden mills, for instance, are in the
north where most of. the sheep are
grown and where it is easiest to bring
in the large amount of Argentine wool
that France consumes.-Cyrus G. Adj
ans, in Chautauquan.

Many and many's the time I have
heard Blev make his brags about how
he could ''come into the game with
marry pair and take the pile" and in
regards to that he is the onlyest man
I have ever saw that could handle the
