AN ANIMAL PARADISE.

Horses are treated very humanely in
Holland and the barbarous check rein
is conspicuous by it's absence. In none
of the large cities of Europe will one
see the straight check, which draws
back horses head painfully. Side
check reins are sometimes used, but
never inconvenience the horse.
The animals which are lucky enough
to live in Holland are fortunate crea-
lures. Cows and pigs dot the land
scape in every direction and roam with
the sheep and horses in the pastures
bordered by the canals, which they
cannot cross. In Switzerland, on the
other hand, the cattle are kept shut
up most of the time in dark, sitting
little stables because there are nc
fences and otherwise the animals would
stray.
The happiest dogs live in The Hague.

ing story connected with the history
of William the Silent, prince OF Orange,
may have had an influence in dispos.
ing the Dutch people to a general re-
gard and love for dogs. On the monu
ment of this prince in church al
Delft is an inscription referring to a
favorite dog of his. On one occasion
when he was in great danger from
Spanish assassins, who were about to
enter the tent where he lay asleep, the
dog jumped on his bed and by bark
ing loudly awoke him in time to make
his escape. Afterward, when he was
assassinated, the same dog is said to
have pinned away and died of grief. The
fine statue of William at The Hague
also has the dog at his feet, looking af.
fectionately up to the face of his mas
ter.

What mighty drama is unfolded in
the development of the Russian en-
pire! The whole world watches it with
absorbing interest. But there is a
tragedy in progress in the empire. A
Russian journal says that the lower
classes in the tsars domains have one
third less to eat than their grandpar-
ents had. The lack of proper nourish-
ment in uncounted homes is a shadow
which dims the splendors of imperial
ism.
