Of the man went far to redeem the
faults of the king, and with posterity
he became at once the most sympa-

it would fetch far more than he has

Citations with gruesome memories
would be quite irresistible. The most
superior person is attracted, though he
may deny it, by such horrors as book
bound in human skin, or by instru-
ments, like the Maiden of Nuremberg,
which he knows to have been used for
torturing real men and women~to their
death. This relish of bloodshed-as
distinguished from mere love of ad-
venturous deeds-has given vogue to
whole schools Of romancers; 1t helped
to account for the sudden popularity
of Mr.. Rider Haggards tales, as it
made the fame Of Maurus Jokai. The
taste is, no doubt, morbid, and ought
not to be encouraged. But it is natural
and has to be taken into account. And
the psychological interest of it Is to
show that we are not, in our feelings,
so far removed from our barbaric an
cestors as we like to think.

Some Queer Trees.

The breadfruit tree of Ceylon Is very
remarkable. It's fruit is baked andeaten
as we eat bread and is equally good and
nutritious. In Barbutu, South Amer
lea, is a tree which, by piercirg the
trunk, produces milk, with which the
inhabitants feed their children. In the
interior of Africa is tree which pro-
duces excellent butter. 1t resembles the
American oak, and its fruit. from
which the butter is prepared is not un-
like the olive. Park, the great traveller,
declared that the butter surpassed any
made in England from cows milk. At
Sierra Leone is the cream fruit tree, the
fruit of which is quite agreeable in
taste.
At Table Bay, near the Cape Of Good
Hope, is "a small tree the berries of
which make excellent candles. It is also
found in the Azores. The vegetable tai
low tree also grows in Sumatra in AL
geria and in China. In the island of
Chusan large quantities of oil and tai
low are extracted from its fruit which
is gathered in November or December,
when the tree has lost all its leaves.
The bark of tree in China produces a
beautiful soap. Trees of the sapindus
or soap berry order also grow in the
north Of Africa. They are amazingly
prolific, and their fruit contains about
8s per cent of saponin. Ladies' Home

FRIDAY AFTERNOON, APRIL IA.

Our very newsy and enterprising
neIghbor, the Springfield Republican,
remains intensely sensitive over the
Philippine question, and never loses a
chance to show its hand. In para
graph regarding the remarkable scare
ity of senate document 81, the Repub-
lican refers to the contents of this
document as 1.-THE illuminating evil
dence of our treacher0us and high
handed dealings with the Filipinos."
A somewhat harsh way of putting the
matter, and hardly in accord with the
views of great majority of the people
of the United States, who, white de-
string, with the Republican, only tue
fairest and most humane treatment for
the natives of those farawaY islands,
are not convinced, as that journal
seems to be, that the American gov
eminent is entirely or mainly respon
sible for what has happened there dur.

The ceremonies which ended the
war with Spain, and assured peace be-
tween this country and that, took
place at the executive mansion in
Washington on Tuesday, the 18th, and
it is a gratifying coincidence that
Tuesday was also the first anniversary
of the issuing of the ultimatum which
gave Spain the choice between relin-
gushing it's hold on Cuba or going to
war with the United States. A very
pleasant thing in connection with the
formal completion of the treaty Of
peace, too, is the announced intention
of Spain to resume Diplomatic rela-
tions with this country; a graceful act
