LITERARY NOTES.

A Russian military paper not long ago
informed its readers that the life Of the
officer in the British army was one Of the
utmost ease and luxury; every officer.
even the humblest subaltern, owned his
yacht, his race horses and his box at the
Opera-when QuarteIed, that Is to say,
wheresuch luxury could be obtained
(the. yacht and the racing stud were
eyeryyyheFelTwhile the more wealthy
possessed their grOuse-mOOrs, their deer
forests etc. the majority playing cards
every might for enormous stakes, and
spending large sums on presents TO
actresses and other fOllies.
Such description is more picturesque
than accurate, for although in many
corps the cost Of living is high. yet fool
ish extravaganza is the exception rather
than the rule. In Her Maiesty's House
hold Brigade, for instance, which is the
corps d. elite, although the officers are
nearly all wealthy men yet the style of
living does not approach the magnif-
cence with which it is credited in the
Imagination of the foreign journalist
and by the the facile pens of some of the
lady nOyelists. Life in the guards is
very pleasant, according to the British
officer who writes Of Social Life in the
British Army" in HARPER'S MAGA-
ZINE for September, il the member is
blessed with good private means; his
mornings, and occasionally the greater
part of his day, are taken up with the
drills and routine duties of his protes-
sion, which are no great tax on his in
telligence OF on his physique, and his
spare time is devoted to those amuse.

Mr. warden Not the Next sherInr.

VIM. Warden will not be the next
sheriff Of LOrain county. The facts are
as follows: The term of the present
sheriff, A. 3. Lord, expires on the first
Monday in January next. A new law
fixes the beginning Of the term of sheriff
hereafterat September 1st or the first
Monday p September. This leaves Lo-
rain county eight months with no sheriff
except man who must be appointed to
fill the unexpired term. The state con-
stitution lays down the fact that no
county sheriff can serve but four con-
secutiye years in any six years. This
being thecase, it will leave Mr.. Lord
out Of the disappointment, as he has served
four years,
Mr.. Warden would not like to break
into his first two year term, II elected,
by being appointed for the short time.
Two candidates, the present deputy
sheriff Charles Salisbury, and George
Boyd want the honor Of signing their
names as sheriff during those eight
months. The county commissioners will
have the power to appoint the sheriff for
the eight months, but the appointment
will not be made until 1899, when the
vacancy will occnr.-LOrain Herald.

Do Not Read In the Cars.

A London publisher whose eyesight
has become SO impaired that he finds
himself able to do scarcely any reading
warns readers against working their
eyes when travelling in the cars. He
says:
"For many years past have been in
the habit of reading and writing for
some hours in the train almost daily,
and my present trouble is undoubtedly
traceable to this cause"
Oculists are now unanimous in the
statement that after certain time,
which varies in different individuals,
reading in the cars is positive danger
to eyesight. The page is in constant vi
bration, and the eyes are strained in
trying to follow automatically the rapid
movements. Too much light is almost
as bad as too little. Reading by pow
erful electric light invariably brings on
eye troubles. People would make their
eyes remain serviceable much longer If
the instant the printed letter becomes
bury or the reading matter gets out
Of focus they would seek the best pro-
fessional skill and prepare to use glasses.

We wish. to enter q protest against
the opening of American markets to
Canadian farmers and stock raisers.
Our members of the high joint COM
mission, now sitting at Quebec, know
that, with our growing capacity for
the production of raw material In the
way Of farm products, we have come
to : point where our home markets
must be held primarily for the benefit
Of out home producers. II Canadian
farmers and cattle-raisers want to Sc
cure the benefit of American markets,
let them bear the burden of promoting
and building up the markets, and then
there will be no unfair competition with
our own people. The capacity Of
farmers Of the United States, in the
production of cereals and the finished
products, in the way Of meats, has
already reached point where our
home markets must be looked after and
guarded very CAREFUL; and besides,
foreign outlets are absolutely necessary
In order to secure stability Of prices.
Let ~ protect our home markets, and
sesk reciprocal outside markets for our
surplus products, rather than open the
door to Canadian farmers and stock.

markets with the equal advantages Of
American farmers. - Prairie Farmer.
