timed stuff. Morris had nothing to do
with buying or serving it. He did his
share of eating, but not of the work,

would cut off a slice, chew 1t while,

BEAUTIFUL LACES.
Some Exquisite Possession of Euro
pean Royalty.

The most beautiful handkerchief in
all the European courts, says the Du-
chesse de Belimere, belongs to Queen
Margherita, of Italy, and it is at the
same time the most costly, being valu-
ed at 100000. IN making this marvel
three artists worked constantly for
more than twenty years. 1t is so fine
that were the eyes closed and the hand
kerchief passed across the hand a per-
son of the most acute sensibilities
would find it impossible to feel any
thing. The queen keeps it religiously
in a tiny jewel case in the form and
size of an ordinary bean pod.
The queen of England owns a dress
which almost equals this. 1t was a
wedding gift from India, and is so fine
and light that the whole dress can be
placed in a small fan box. on this
nine persons worked during ten years.
The queens collection of laces is worth
1876, 600, and that of the princess of
Wales is not far behind, as it is now
valued at $3.50 900, her stock having
been increased by the legacy of her
mother, the late queen of Denmark.
Though eX-Empress Eugene lost
many pieces of great value on her
flight from the Tuileries, still she has
considerable, and what she has is very
beautiful. One piece alone cost $3.50
a yard. The laces of the Vatican are
rated at $S75,000

Great Britain is In distress over tho
state OF affairs existing in South Africa.
Americans who sympathize with the Beers
are not necessarily unfriendly to the
British. They simply do not indorse tho
British cause for in their deliberate judg-
ment they believe Great Britain to be-
grievously in error. This class OF Ameri-
cans is in the ascendant. and ought to be;
not essentially because this country is
republic, and by tho affinity OF govern
ments kindly disposed towards another re-
public, but because a chivairous people,
by original impulse. are moved to worthlly
extend their sympathy 10 a struggle under
taken to preserve the independence OF the
citizen and the sovereignty of his state.
Moreover, we'll ordered public intelli-

cluslon that behind England's demand of
suffrage for the Outlander lay the real
cause of England's precipitation of the

termination to take forcble possession OF
the gold fields of the Transvaal region.
Recent events have shown that the gold
of South Africa has been relied upon to
preserve tho gold standard policy of the
English government. With the Influx of
gold from the Rand cut off by vicious
war; that Great Britain has not been able
TO put down as speedily as 1t thought,
The Bank OF England has been pushed to
its limit to supply gold enough to main

concerns. Attempts to buy gold with
heavy interest rates from other govern
ments has been met. in most cases, with
defeat, while these governments in order
