MADE HEIR TO A THRONE.
IL In Line. Through Sew
epal announcements.

Queen Nictoria's sons have inherited
from their father, the prince consort. a
petty principality and throne in Ger
many. This is Saxe-Coburg and Gotha,
a duchy with u territory of about $50
square miles-three-fourths of the area
OF Rhode lsland-and a population ex-
ceeding 200, 900. IL is not a stronghold
of power and influence. but a good deal
of money goes with IL, and makes it
worth while 20 keep it in the family.
The prince Of Wales renowned his
rights to the duchy because he was heir
TO the Lnglish throne. The duke OF
Edinburgh accepted the inheritance,
but he has no son to succeed him. The
duke of C%onnaught was the next in
line, but he and his son have renounced
their rights. The heir to the throne is
the son Of the late duke of Albany, the
queens fouI Oh sou.
lie is a 1choolboy, in his fifteenth
year, and Las no prospects In England.
lie will now 20 TO Germany to finish his
education, and will cease to be an Eng
lish prince. lie will owe allegiance to
the German emperor, and Will probably
serve his time in the army.
The inheritance has ben arranged
by Queen Victoria, whose will is law
in the English royal family. She has
provided for one Of her favorite grand
sons a snug and comfortable little
throne on the continent, where he will
have little to do, and where his income
will be large.-Iouth's Companion.

SPINSTERs
Many Of Our Lady Cousins Across the
Pond Live In single
B~iessedness.

The number of single wumen in Eng
land constantly increases. Many thou
sands Of women have to earn their own
living in place Of spending and hus-
banding the earnings of men. They
pass their time in an incomplete and
separate existence of their own, in
stead of completing and embellishing
the existence Of others. From the ex-
cess in the number of women, thou
sands take service In factories, while
others overcrowd the ill-paid ranks of
needlewomen and seamstresses
Even in the richer classes, says a Lon
don exchange, there is the same in
equality OF numbers, and those who are
relieved from the necessity of working
for their daily bread have yet to seek
some occupation, some interest in life,
to relieve the tedium of an objectless
existence. Some pursue pleasure mere
ly, though this soon pals upon the APP
petite; others take To charitable pur-
suits, doing, perchancc, an equal
amount of good and mischief. Those
whose tastes lead them to literary or
artistic pursuits are perhaps the least
unhappy.
That a redundancy Of unmarried
women exists is evident, but it must
not be regarded as caused wholly or
mainly by n disparity in the number of
the sexes. This difference does not, at
the most, amoun to six per cent;
whereas, the number of unmarried
women in England amounts not to six,
but actually to 30 per cent-that is to
say, only two out Of every three wom-
en- are ever married.

Cat Adopts Four Rabbtts.

without, The day after the kittens dis
appeared the cat wac observed carrying
something to the barn in her mouth.
Three times she was seen making the
same journey, and then Mr., Harris made
an investigation. He found, hidden in
the hay, three baby rabbits. While he
was looking AZ them puss appeared for
the fourth time, carrying another little
rabbit in her mouth, II was deposited
with the Others, and she lay down with
them. purring with the greatest OF
pride and satisfaction. The young rnb-
bits are getting along finely. They hop

ris is proud Of his cat and il permit

are constantly calling 10 witness this
