Guess What Does the Business.

The success of Russian diplomacy
with the Chinese and with the people
of Central Asia has always been the
marvel of the world. In the present
case the responsible officials of China
seem to be as anxious for the success
of the Russian proposals to practically
hold control OF large part of Man.
churla as the Russians themselves.
Since the Russians themselves are
little more than Tartars with some
thing of European polish, they have
little difficulty 10 understanding how
to handle the Chinese, and it is an
easy guess that a handsome corruption
fund for high officials is the thing that
does the business.

The Call to Peary.

The child holds to its ear the sea-
shell to hear the murmur Of the ocean.
Some such murmur must be sounding
in the ear Of Commander Peary to
lure him back to the polar sea, though
the Arctic regions are more remarka-
BILE for intense stiffness than for the
sound of restless waves beating on the
shore.
But every region has its spell, which
lures back to 1t the men who have
most cause to dread it or avoid it.
The desert, the prairie, the mountains
and seas have the witchery which gets
into the blood of men. Peary has
seen the Arctic regions six times and
cheerfully goes once more.

This is about the season of the year,
remarks an exchange. when the So
called wholesale grocery man will be
abroad IN the land Offering granulated
sugar at Al cents, but at the time the
farmer will be expected to buy pound
of IL cent coffee for Is cents, pound
of 80 cent tea for 30 cents, q 10 cent
baking powder for 40 cents. and many
other things In proportion. The
granulated sugar is the bait that
causes the unsuspecting public to bite.
But when the bill is complete there is
not a grocer IN yonr town but what
would duplicate the bill, quality con-
sidered, at discount Of from to 10
per cent and make q big profit.
