Blykins laid down the book whose eading

page to cast blameful glances and said:
Julia are you aware that we pay rent
for only a portion OF this building? Does
IL occur 10 you that while We have a right

we are not morally justified in causing

There said Mr.. Blykins as he reached

Rabbits In Australia.

Mr.. Walter Dalrymple Severp recent
~ delivered an illustrated lecture 10 a
large audience ut the Imperial institute,
London. on The Rabbit Plague ia
Australia The lecturer said it was at
the period of the highest prosperity Of
Australia and New South Wales that a
patriotic gentleman thought il would
be a good thing to import a few rabbits
into the coloay, as they would serve for
food and for sport
He accordingly imported three couple
of rabbits and they were turned loose.
1t was not long before il was found that
the district in question had been trans
formed into a gigantic rabbit warren.
Indeed, il was discovered that n single
pair o. rabbits, under favorable circuac-
stances, would in three years have a
progeny numbering Is. $4,000. Sir
Saul Samuel. in moving a vote Of thanks
to the lecturer, said the government
of New South Wales had 1880 schemes
sent in when the f25.0 600 reward was
offered, but none OF them were really Of
a practical nature. and the reward WAS
withdrawn.

Chatauquan: A ~Spaniard was born

Cuba. is not a S%paniard, but a Cuban.
II a Cuban should 90 to Madrid when
he Is two weeks old, and spend his life
in the palace, he would still be a Gu
ban, and not quite as good as a Span
lard. If a Spaniard should go TO Ha-
yana when he is two weeks old. and
spend all his life in that city or upon
IA plantation, he would still be a Span
lard, and enjoy the distinction and So
ciaI position which a Cuban car never
attain. The sons and daughters of a
Spaniard are Cubans if they are born
in Cuba; but the sons and grandsons
and great-grandsons of a Cuban must
always be Cubans, no matter il they
were born in Madrid and spend their
whole lives in that city. No Cuban can
ever become a Spaniard, no matter
what happens TO him, and from the
Spanish point of view he is a degener-
ate.
