Mr.. and Mrs. Il. y. Riblet. From ear
Hest infancy the little prodigy has TAX

who is an expert rider and practical
bicycle machinist. He constructed a

supposed to be the smallest in the
world, having n frame that measures
but nine inches and wheels only four
teen inches in diameter. This wheel
the little lady Is mistress Of, and rides
it fearleSsly upon the street at a rapid
speed without any assistance, and Gre
ates quite a sensation wherever she
goes. The wheel is made after the reg
ulation pattern, and is a decided nov

much less than the government thought
they were worth, and a new appraise-
ment was ordered. The new appraise-
ment raised the value Of the stock
some S10.955, which, with the fine FOR
differentiation, will make a nice sum
for Mr.. Hineman to pay the govern

me with your love. From all parts or
the kingdom, from all classes of So
ciety, young and old, / have always re-
ceived striking proofs Of attachment.
After the death of my venerated father,
nil your attachment to the dynasty was
transferred TO me. On this day | am
ready 10 accept the splendid though
weighty task whereto l have been
called, and | feel myself supported by
your fidelity. Receive my thanks. My
experience hitherto has left ~inetfacea-
BILE impressions and is an earnest OF
the future. My dearl yloved mother,
to whom | am immensely indebted, set
me an example by her noble and ex-
allied conception of the duties which
henceforth devolve upon me. The aim
of my life will be TO follow her eX-
ample and 10 govern in the manner eX-
pected of a princess of the house or
Orange.
.'True 10 the expectation, | desire TO
strengthen the respect for the name
and flag of the Netherlands. AS SOW
ereign of possessions and colonies east
and west, | desire to observe justice
and to contribute so far as in me lies
10 the increasing intellectual and mutu-
al welfare of my whole people. ! hope
and expect that the support of all, IN
whatever sphere of official or social ac-
tivity you may be placed. within the
Kingdom or without, will never be
wanting.
Trusting in God. and with a prayer
that he give me strength, accept The
government. -Wilhelmlna.

The following protest, by Rev. J. II.
Croker of Buffalo, against the charge
that the attitude of our country among
the nations is that of Isolation" will
be accepted by many OF our readers.
The 90 sweeping declaration is very
well controverted. 1T seems to me-
said the preacher. "that a distinguish
ed American statesman is wrong when
he charges us with isolation. AS a
people we have been very much abroad
An the world, and In the noblest and
most e~ffectual way. Who have trav-
eled SO widely or wisely as Americans
We have SEN great numbers OF stu
dents to foreign universities. Thou
sands of devoted missionaries have
gone from our shores to distant lands.
We are e1riching our life from every
source; we are pouring out our life
and shedding our influence upon every
race and tribe. What greater good
can we do to the world than by these
peaceful services? We should arrest
our own development and diminish our
influence by stepping down from this
pedestal and meddling in the affairs of
distant nations and assuming charge
OF savage hordes."
