BONES FOR OUR AMBASSADORS.

A report that comes from London that
the United States Government Is looking
at a London house, with view to buy
ing it for the residence of its Ambassa
dor, ought to be true. though possibly
1t is not. The duty of buying houses in
foreign capitals for his Ambassadors and
Ministers is one that Uncle Sam has neg
sected Internationally long. 1t is SO
clearly sensible and expedient that it is
surprising that it was not done long
ago; but, for that matter, 1t is surprising
that the Ambassadors salaries have not
been increased. Possibly the necessity of
providing a safe and permanent home for
the American legation at Picking will
serve as a precedent for acquiring real
estate in other capitals; but whenever
the houses are bought, adequate provi-
sion should be made for the support of
our representatives who are to live up to
them. The labor of finding and hiring a
furnished house in foreign city ought
not to be imposed any longer on our AM
bassadors. 1t wastes time and strength
and thought, which are needed for other
more important uses.-E. s. Martin, In
Harper's Weekly.

These 10.000,0o0 cards, a German con-
temporary says, would, If piled up, form

the whole world whose pupils are all

members of the royal family The age
of the princesses varies from ten to
fifteen years.
