USES OF ROYAL KINsHIP.

Some Instances in Recent Interna-
tional Affairs in the Old World.
The candidature of Prince George
Of Greece for the governorship Of
Crete is striking illustration of the
personal relations OF the reigning
houses in Europe. He wrote a letter
to his cousin, the Emperor of Russia,
asking him to support his claims. The
emperor at once adopted him as the
Russian candidate. They are not only
cousins, each being a grandson of
King Christian TX, of Denmark, but
are also intimate friends of nearly the
same age. They We're companions In
a journey around the world, and
Prince George, by his GOODNESS and
courage, had saved his cousins life
from an assassin's attack in Japan. A
personal appeal for support could not
be disregarded.
| The governorship of Crete has re-
manned an unsettled question since the
war between Turkey and Greece. The
European powers, while pledged to
protect the island and to reform its
| government, had been unable to agree
| upon candidate for governor. One
name after another had been propos-
ed, only to be rejected. The willy Sui
tan objected on general principles to
every candidate When Nicholas II,
| ordered his ministers to propose
Prince Georges name the significance
of the nomination as the personal
choice of the sovereign was perceived
| throughout Europe. France, tas Rus
| sia's closest ally, at once supported the
candidate. Lord Salisbury seconded it
| gladly, especially as the prince was
the nephew Of the Princess of Wales.
Italy acqiesced- The attitude Of the
Kaiser is not yet known.
| Greece had plunged into war in or
der to liberate and annex Crete, and
had been disastrously defeated. The
| appointment of son Of the King Of
| Greece as governor of Crete would be
a considerable victory for the pros
| trate little kingdom. The Sultan re-
fused to consent to 1t and appealed to
| the German emperor. Russia at once
applied pressure by demanding the
payment Of arrears of interest on the
unpaid war indemnity contracted by
Turkey in the campaign Of 1875.
| Whenever the Sultan is obstinate he is
| forcibly reminded that Turkey owes
| Russia a great deal of money. This
candidature, which will at once do
| much to retrieve the fortunes of
Greece and will offer a practical solu-
ton of a troublesome question of Eu-
ropean diplomacy, is the outcome of
| the intimate relations of the two cous-
ms, who were together in the far east.
In the same way the German emper-
or, in entering upon diplomatic and
naval campaign in China. commission
| ed his brother to visit Queen Victoria
at Osborne. Prince Henry is a fav-
orite among the queens grandsens,
and in consequence of his visit more
| friendly relations between England
and Germany have been established.
Whatever may be the rival policies of
Russia and England in China, the
| family relations of. the two courts
| tend to promote compromise and
peace. Nicholas II, has married a
| granddaughter of the queen, and is
strongly influenced by his mother who
is a sister of the Princess of Wales

zoAR's FALL CAUSED BY A RIB
BON.

BON.
do you know said a Cleveland
man who has considerable to do with
the Zoarites during the past eight or
ten years, how the breaking up of
the Zoar community began?
I'll tell you. 1t was all on account
of a piece of ribbon. One of the things
that the people of zoar foreswore
when they settled there was gaudy
raiment. They dressed themselves in
unthought of. AS long as that plan
was adhered to Zoar was safe; but
when people got to going there from
the cities, to board at the hotels, the
beginning of the end was inaugurated.
1T was the law of the community
that all the earnings of the people
were to be turned into the common
treasury, and that nobody was to have
cent to spend for his personal benefit
or pleasure. The trustees did all the
buying and everything was owned in
common.
After while, however, the girls
who worked at the hotel began to get
presents of money from visitors, and
oAiS VI liiCill, OiiG ddy, tOh' a lew Scllo
out of the change she had received
and bought a piece of ribbon.
1T was like introducing the measles.
1t was catching, and presently the
other girls began to come out in glori-
Gus colors.
This deadly work had been done.
The trustees We're. powerless. Girls
who We're not fortunate enough to be
assigned to work at the hotel went
aWay--out into the world, and it was
not long until the boys began to follow
them.
''That was the manner in which
Zoar fell. The people there to-day are
nearly all old, and for that reason the
community cannot last. The property
is to be sold, the receipts will be di-
vided, and zoar will be but a memory
/ of what might have been but for a
piece of ribbon. "-Cleveland Leader.

Many a man and woman can testify to
blessings received at previous conferences.
Is Gods arm shortened that He cannot do
wonders again next August? VIII He
withhold His blessing if we come before
Him in the right spirit?
The war that is now upon MS should not
interfere with the conference. Rather let

pray aud take counsel regarding his work
Sin and vice have become more rampant
the line between the world and many pro-
Tossing Christians has been almOs. oDliter-
ed. Sabbath desecraton has become more

Let Us confess our sins as a nation as well
as individuals. and let us cast out any
Achan that may be in the camp, lest the
favor Of God be turned away from rs.
In the 18th chapter Of Exodus We read
that God promised to take care Of the
land Of the children OF Israel when they
went ND to Jerusalem to keep the appoint
ed feasls. Let us take this promise TO
ourselves, believing that in this time Of

DUMMERsrON,


A travelling salesman with fluent speech
and deceitful tongue passed through Dunn
merston Centre last Friday forenoon. He
had several packages Of insect powder in
one hand and a grip in the other After
making a few inquiries regarding the loca-
ton of houses, he began operations north
of the village with the intention of making
sales at every house. He had been very
fortunate in making sales of his goods in
Brattleboro, having sold more than a 800
worth in that town during the last fort
night. the meat-market men in particular,
having bought several dollars worth of the
stuff The power Of Saint Patrick to drive
reptiles out of Ireland was trihug COM
pared to what the wonderful insect pow
der would accomplish in driving away
flies, ants. moths, fees. bedbugs, cock
reaches and hen lice,
PIT a little Of tile powder in tumbler
of water, let it stand in a room with closed
doors over night and in the morning the
flies would be so groggy through fear that
they can be easily caught and destroyed.
Scatter the powder among ants and it
makes them sneeze SO violently that it
causes great dread and drives them all out
of town Bedbugs treated to a dose of the
destroyer cough violently instead of sneez-
ing and when the paroxysm is over, leave
suddenly for parts unknown.
To treat fees on dogs, put some Of the
powder in a pepper box, dust it on the dog
freely, saturate the hair with a quantity
of kerosene and set it on fire with a match.
In less than a minute the fees will all be
gone, and the dog, also, unless the fire is
soon extinguished.
The foregoing directions about using the
dreadful powder that drives out from dwell
ling houses all kinds of insects through fear
of its presence therein may seem to be eX-
aggeratiors, but the man himself was an
exaggeraton. He exaggerated about the
out of town. He exaggerated about the
merits of this wonderful expeller of insects
and, as he invented it himself, to obtain
money by misrepresentation, it certainly
must be an exaggeration in every partic-
uIar.
