London Truth: The National Congress

bled in London, has not as yet disturbed
the gayety Of nations.
This is the more surprising seeing that
several Of the delegates are in favor Of
total abstinence in every direction-ex-
eept in the direction of dress.

young Empress had had a chance to wear

SO twice in her life did she see the
power disappear when almost within her
grasp. But bitterer fate was yet to
come.
1t was confidently expected this time
that young Kaiser Wilhelm who sue
ceeded to the throne at the age of thirty
would call upon his mother for assistance,
and would even ask her to rule with him
in joint rulership, he the nominal, she
the real head. But far from doing this
he came out openly against her policy;
and gave her to understand, in so many
words. that he would rule the German
empire as he wiled. The wilful young
fellow banished his mother to the winter
palace and there, upon an allowance, he
ordered her to live and finish bringing up

duke as well as to three Of the finest
estates in the United Kingdom, and a
racing stable that cannot be surpassed.
Another child millionaire is the infant
Marquis of Titchf1eld, who is but six
years Of age. The young marquis is the
eldest son Of the Duke of Portland and
while it is impossible to estimate the
value Of the property that he will in
herit it probably will not be less than
$40, ,000.0 900. This includes a large amount
of the most valuable land in London as
well as several country estates, upon one
of which. Webeck Abbey, the late duke
spent nearly $10,000,00O.
The infant Marquis Of Blanford, who
is still teething and knows nothing Of
another Of the great millionaires of the
next century. AS is we'll known he is
the son Of the Duke of Marlborough and
will not only succeed to his fathers es-
tate Of 23,40O acres, the glories of Blen-
helm Palace, six titles of the .peerage
and two titles of prince, but WI also
come in for the very comforta bles fortune
of his mother, this alone being estimated
at more than $5,O00.O00. with the pros
pect of an additional bequest at the
death Of his American grandfather.
The seventeen year old Earl Of Dunn
fries has certainly bright future before
him. He is the heir of vast wealth and
distinction, for his father. the Marquis
of Butte. is one of the wealthiest of the
English peers. AT present he is the lord
of l17,0G0 acres, sixteen titles, and his
income is estimated at not less than $5,DpO
per day. Il
Another heir to millions is the ten
year old son of Sir Saville Crossley. The
vast fortune that he will inherit was
made by his great grandfather, Thomas
Crossley. who took advantage of4tlle in

ufacturng OF carpets. While others were
content with the hand loom he solved
this problem of how to use steam in his
business and he died a millionaire.
Still another millionaire whose fortune
was due to modern trade is the Baron
Duneath, whose millions were made in
linen. At present the family is out OF
! trade and the heir to the title and vast
| estate is Master Andrew Mulholland, of
| Belfast.
| 1T is probable that the greatest land

heir to the Duke of Sutherland, the ten

THE HAPPY FARMER.

The farmer is a happy man
(Sometimes).
He lays a wealth of dollars up.
And dimes.
He has no cares to worry him
Or fret
His soul, because he never is
In debt.
When he is hungry, all he has
To do
Is to go out and blithely dig
A few
Potatoes or to pick some fresh
Green peas.
His life is full Of simple joys
Like these.
He sees the sunrise nearly ev-
'ry day.
Oh, life to him is only sport
And play.
He does not have to think about
His dress; ~
He gets along with one good suit
Or less.
His wife so seldom has to SO
In town
She only needs to have one ging-
ham gown,
And he is never tortured with
The blues.
Because the children never need
New shoes.
Oh, life is just one round of joy
And fun
To farmers. How I wish that I
Were one!
I'd blithely lay the dollars up,
And dimes.
Just as the happy farmer does

Intelligent Clerks.

a young man who is department man
ager in one of the big retail houses of New
York conceived a rather novel plan for
paying his vacation expenses. He got up
a lecture for clerks. In the lecture were
bits CT advice CT the utmost practical value
TO those who make their living in trade
The lecturer explained the Importance of
wise and polite way Of dealing with GUS
toner. and told his audience how to make
suggestions without being officious, how
TO avoid disputes. how TO meet complaints.
how TO refuse credit when necessary, and
how TO do the hundred other little things
which make up each days work, and tie
success or failure of the business The
lecture. it is said. was a great success,
and there is a possibility that the young
man may devote his entire time to this
profession.
II is not an exaggeration to say that
several of the most successful business
houses in the country owe their success to
the intelligence and ability of their clerks.

others in making bargains for their goods.
they may not know the market any better.

find that the clerks are polite without be-
ing officious, Intelligent without being de-
termned to show their omniscience and
ready TO wait on customers without being
at their heels all the time, that place of
business is going to make success unless
prevented by some extraordinary misman-
agement in other directions Moreover.
the intelligent and tactful clerk is not only
valuable TO his employers, but the good
strokes of business which he does for them

A Fluid Lighter Than Cork.
(From the American Machinis

Now that hydrogen has been liquefed, there
seem to he worlds to conquer in that
special direction. 1t remarkable coinci-
dence that the first public exhibition OF this
latest wonder made in connection with the
centenary of the Royal Institution of Great
Britain. Prof. Dewar in opening the exhibit
tion, spoke OF liquid hydrogen as a new instru-
ment Of research, which it eminently is by vir-
tue of the extremely low temperature at which
alone it can exist, and which low temperature it,
by its presence contact enables other substances
approximately to reach. The liquid was exhibited
in a state of gentle ebullition in vacuum tube
immersed in liquid air, the latter serving to i'm
pede the access of the heat. The hydrogen is a
transparent liquid, and, besides being the codest
is also the fightest liquid known. A cork drops
Immediately to The bottom of it. At the bot
tom of the vessel containing the liquid there ap-
peared whitish substance, which was in fact
solid air, or air ice. 1t is impossible to avoid
the air ice in the bottom of the vessel as the
air at the surface of the liquid is, by the in
tense cold, condensed, liquefied and subsequently
solidified,, ard, heing much heavier than the
hydrogen, it sinks and accumulates at the bot
tom. To show that the liquid was really hydro
gen. light was applied to small quantity,
which at onre burst into brilliant fame. Solids
immersed inahetliquid long enough to attain the
same temperature were, upon being taken out,
covered with liquid air, which would run down
and drop off. ~
