In an article on the Famine in In
dia," in the North American Review,
Sir Edwin Arnold states that 115,O0O,-
900 of people in that vast country de-
pend on the rainfall upon 126, 100000
acres which falls upon the whole dur
ing two seasons in the year. If it fails,
there is failure of crops over the en-
tire area. In this country no drought
covers the entire country; there it
does. Equally interesting to us is the
further statement that all the good
ground has been taken up in India-a
fact which should silence the fears of
wheat growers that India has many
millions of uncultivated wheat lands.
Besides, the customs of the people pre-
vent larger and better cultivation The
farmer uses a pointed stick as pillow,
as did dis ancestors 5000 years ago,
and tills only as much land as can be
easily reached from his village resi-
dence, morning and evening, by his
slow-moying cattle.

Former Disposition of the Fat Scrap
inRs from Fur.
Here is an echo from the days when
it was not reckoned unlawful to sell
oleomargarine as butter:
eve no longer have the same profit
able way of disposing of our waste prod
ucts that we had a few years ago." said
fur dealer the other day. He looked
Retrospective and tribe regretful, as
he continued: There was always a
ready market then for every particle of
the fat scrapings from the different
skins. Who took them? Why, the oleo-
margarine manufacturers, to be sure.
They would send wagons up to my
place every day and carry away several
barrelfuls of the fat and grease which
have to be taken off the under side of
the heavy pelts. Skunks, opossums,
all kinds of animals contributed. It
all went into the butter. But that is
over with now. Since this new law has
been in operation, that branch of bust
ness has been dead. People could eat
skunk and opossum grease, you know,
so long as it was called butter, but if
the dealers are obliged to come out
frankly with a description of its real
character, their customers object"

An Old PrOyerb.

John Haywood. the playwright and
epigrammatist, once wrote book the
object of which. as disclosed by the
title page, is singular: "a dialogue,
containing in effect the number of all
the proverbs in the English tongue,
compact in a matter concerning two
marriages" When the marquis of Win
chester, lord high treasurer, was pre-
scented with a copy of this book by the
author, he inquired what it contained,
aud being answered: "All the proverbs
IN English" replied: What all? No,
no. Bate me an ace, quoth Bolton -
form of speech once much in vogue.
by my faith," said Haywood, shat is
not in" 1t happened that the marquis
had casually uttered the only proverb
not in the book.

STORY OF FRENCH REVOLUTION.
Times When Mems Lives Depended
On Small Issues,


At the time of the French revolution
Houdon, the celebrated French sculp-
tor (whose statue of Voltaire we have
all admired in the foyer of the Theater
Francaise), was thrown into prison,
says an exchange. Nine. Houdon, in
despair, went to Barras and with
streaming eyes implored his assistance.
Barras shook his head; he feared he
could do nothing. Houdon was a man
of genius and, therefore, as David was
one of the oondemning judges, he feared
there was little chance for salvation.
Nine. Houdon refusing to accept this
opinion as final and using all the arts
and Requirements of which an astute
French lady is capable Barras at last
condescended to ask her if her husband
had any statue for sale at that time in
his studio. Madame replied that the
only finished statue at present in his
atelier was figure of st. Scholastic,
holding a scroll of manuscript in her
hand.
On hearing this the willy Barras rang
the bell and said to his answering sec
rotary: IN. Houdon has just complet-
ed splendid statue of Philosophy
Meditating on the Revolution Hasten
and purchase this sublime work of art
and have it placed in the assembly"
Barras' orders were carried out, with the
result that not OILY was the sculptor's
life spared, but he received more COM
missions for statues than he was able
to execute. On such small issues did
the lives of men hang in those tremend-
GUS times.

nOunced by those who have tried it
as the very best blood purifier and
nerve tonic. Try it. Sold for SOC or

Limiting the Death Penalty.

Our national laws have retained
much of the severity of the
colonial period, and prescribed the
death penalty for a large number of
crimes. A bill has been passed by con-
gress which substitutes hard labor for
the death penalty in all but five classes
OF crime and permits the same substitu-
ton, even in certain of these classes
when the jury in it's verdict directs that
the penalty shall be without capital
punishment"
