Switxerland's Army Is Large.

There Is no country in Europe, with
the exception of the little governments
OF Monaco and San Marine, which
Spends less for military purposes than
Switzerland. The annual cost of it's
army is only about 100000, and yet,
in case of necessity, it can put into
the field within two days 100000 train
ed soldiers and retain at the same time
another 100000 as reserves, in addi-
ton to its militia, numbering 100000
men, says the New York Herald. In
Switzerland young men are trained to
become good rife shots, and there is
not a hamlet in the country, without a
volunteer association formed for this
purpose. Military service is also COM
pulsory from the twenty-second to the
thirty second year, forty-five days SER
vice being required during the first
year and sixteen during every sub
sequent year. The soldiers keep their
weapons and uniforms at their own
homes, and are held responsible for
them by the government, which in
spects them carefully once year.

I'll polish your shoes and fetch your
paper every day for nothing Pepe's
eyes shone like black diamonds.
OF course the little fellow was ire
sistible and the loan was made, hap
PLY upon more advantageous terms
for the young borrower. One Ameri-
can dollar was worth nearly two in
provincial coin; and to encourage
thrift as much as to try Pope, agreed
to let him work 1t out, with the men,
tai reservation of paying him in full
for his services If he proved trust
worthy.
And for week no one could have
been more faithful. Every morning
La Correspondence duly made its ap-
pearance and my shoes were neatly
polished. And then-Pepe stopped
coming! i A.
More than the paper I missed the
smiling countenance, the large and
dark eyes, the shock of blue-black
hair, of my little friend. His graft
tude I could not doubt, because. not
content with fulfilling his part of our
bargain, he had several times brought
me fruit, and only desisted from such
practice upon my resolute and almost
angry command. Apparently Pope
was lost. I was loath to believe him
unfaithful, and inquired for him In
the basement Of the house in the
Gale del Cristo, from which he had
accosted me, but the inmates could
give no tidings of him. And I never
saw him again, which is a bad and
unsatisfactory ending for this simple
little story. but, alas! it is a truthful
one!
j Shortly after this episode I left San
Juan, and a few weeks later I re-
ceived letter from the army surgeon
in charge of the smallpox hospital in
that city, of which the following is
true extract:
From the description given me by
the little fellow, and the fact OF your
speaking Spanish with these people,
I am sure that you must be the officer
in question. He did not remember
your name, but said that his own was
Pope. In his last moments his chief
concern was not himself, but that you
should receive the dollar bill which
I enclose. You need have no fear,
as It has been thoroughly disinfected."

When the American governor gem
eral issued his famous order requir-
ing all children to be properly clothed
in the street there was CONSERVATION
in San Juan. Previous to our occu-
patton the lower or working classes
had never thought of putting clothes
upon young child, especially in the
country; and as result the island
was filled with brown little Adams
and Ewes. without even the biblical
fig-leaf to hide their nakedness.
Porto Rico, you must know, is near
ly as thickly populated as Belgium,
and many Of the people are very poor.
To some parents it was a positive
hardshiptto clothe their numerous off,
spring, and, moreover, 1t was not con-.
sidered necessary, because of the mild
climate. The governor general, how
ever, entertained other views. To his
military and somewhat stern eye the
picturesqueness of the landscape was
not enhanced by any number of naked
babies. He would have liked to put
uniforms upon them, such is the force
Of habit and education.
Clothing them was at least step
In their "Americanization," and, to
do him Justice, he believed that the
somewhat abnormal mortality among
the infants was due to their naked
ness, especially during the season Of
"northers. - And SO the fiat went
forth. ..-
