power when prosperous times came.
He gave q list of colored men that

He was fire into with interrogations

Altogether the meeting was a very
successful one, and will do the party

PRINCESS VICTORIA.
The Simple Life of England's Queen
in Her Childhood Days.

The Simple Life of England's Queen
in Her Childhood Days.
There was an occupation in which
the wee woman of seven years, wearing
simple white gown and large straw
hat, was frequently seen engaged. 1t
was watering the garden plants. One
of those who saw her said that as he
sometimes watched her intently at
work, he wondered which would get
the most water, the plants or her own
little feet!
The princess was an early riser, get
ing up at seven, frequently earlier in
the summer, and breakfasting at eight
o'clock. Her breakfast was just as any
well-caredfor little girl, who was not
princess, might be expected to enjoy;
bread-and-milk and fruit, placed on a
small table fly her mothers side.
When breakfast was finished the lit
tie princess went for walk or drive,
while her half-sister, Feodore, her al
most constant companion, studied with
her governess. From ten to twelve the
duchess instructed 'Drina, after which
she was at liberty to wander at will
through the rooms, or to play with her
many costly toys.
Two o'clock was the dinner-hour Of
the princess, though the luncheon-hour
of the duchess. Plain food, nicely
cooked, was placed before the little
girl; and she did it justice, for she was
healthy and strong, and enjoyed her
meals. After dinner she received as
sistance in her studies till four o'clock,
when she was taken by her mother to
visit friend, or perhaps to walk or
drive, or she was permitted to ride a
donkey in the gardens.
At the dinner-hour of the duchess her
little girl supped, seated next to her
mother. Then came romp with her
nurse, Mrs. Brock. BY the time the
romp was finished the house-party
would be at their dessert, and then the
princess would be called in to join
them.
Nine o'clock was bedtime, and she
never prolonged, her day beyond that
hour. No matter whether she was at
home or at the house of a friend, mine
o'clock bedtime was rigidly enforced"
Her little bed was placed beside her
mothers larger bed, 80 that by day and
night mother and daughter were never
far apart.
Regular study, regular exercise,
simple food, and plenty of time out OF
doors, plenty of play and plenty Of
sleep, distinguished the up-bringing Of
England's future queen.-James Cas-
sidy. in ST. Nicholas

London, Sept. 20.-The Globe this
afternoon in an editorial on the fulfil

(which disregard alike the legal pre-

America has lost all sense of proper

Eel blood for snakes.

Some years ago the naturalist Mosse
found that the blood of cells, particular
ly that of the sea cells, contained poi
SON which acted, when transferred into
the human system, similar to the venom
of vipers, although weaker, inasmuch
as the eel poison brought about sim
lar reduction of the temperature of
the blood as the snake poison. Based
upon this fact, Prof. C. Phisalik made
very interesting researches, which he
presented recently to the Academy of
Sciences at Paris. He concluded that
the blood of cells possessed immunity
ing agencies upon snake poison. BE
succeeded by heating solution of eel
poison to So degrees Centigrade to de.
stroy its virulence, 50 that it was pos
eible to inoculate . Guinea pig with the
huid, the only effect being the raising
