"A TERRIBLE BUSINESS"

cit is a terrible business" wrote
Lord Elgin nearly fifty years ago,
this living among inferior races
have seldom, since I came to the East,
heard a sentence which was recOncil-
able with the hypothesis that Chris
tianity had ever come into the world.
DetestatiOn, contempt, ferOcity, venge-
ance, whether Cinnamon or Indians
be the object There are some three
or four hundred servants IN this
house. When one first passes by
their salaaming one feels a little
awkward. But the feeling soon wears
on, and one moves among them with
perfect indifference, treating them,
not as dogs, because in that case one
would whistle to them and pat them,
but as machines with which one can
have no community or sympathy
Yet, it is a terrible business. And
now, for many generations, large and
ever-increasing numbers Of our yell
low countrymen have come back from
contact with inferior races" bringing
with them contempt for the rights of
human beings whom they deem lower
than themselves in the scale OF hu-
manity And the poison has spread
through all ranks of society.
What shall it profit a man if he
shall gain the whole world. and lose
his own souI2" A nation. no less than
a man, may ask the QuestiOn.-LOn-

THE DANGER IN KISSING.

A new danger has been discovered
n kissing. The discovery is made by
a scientist, of course. All these dead
" dangers in kissing are discovered
by scientists.
The New York Medical Journal an
nOunces that to the danger from
germs ''is superadded, in the case of
the neuropath, that of shock highly
injurious to the nervous system"
This, if true, is bad for the neurO-
path. But is it necessary that anybody
should kiss as a neurOpath?
That a shock comes with kissing,
many people know. But would any Of
them have it dispensed with if he
could? No, indeed. A kiss without a
shock would be a dull affair
That there are actual dangers in
kissing it has not remained for mod
ern psychologists to discover If we
might project the Imagination back
to most primitive man we would per
haps see there and then, as we do
here and now, a thousand things for
kissers to be afraid Of
The old mans boot and the rival
young BUCK have become traditional
among a multitude Of other dangers.
The men Of all ages have felt fear
Of these dangers, far more material
and threatening than mere germs, and
braved them. So viii they ever meet
and face them.-ChicagO Journal

AN ocToeENARIAN's MEMOIRS.

In comparing the manners and Gus
toms Of my youth with those of the
present day, I should say one of the
chief differences is in the attitude Of
children toward their parents. Ger
tainly my fathers word was law which
we never dreamed of disputing, and
a girl never acted independently Of
her mother. At the end OF each dance
she returned TO her chaperOn, and
never heard of a young lady receiving
presents from or driving in cabs with
her partner before being engaged. In
the matter of dress l think it was
much simpler and less complicated
than it is now; at least, I was never
allowed to wear anything in the even
ing, winter or summer, but white mus
lin made low with short sleeves; and
I remember that when my elder sisters
were going out in London all their
ball dresses and even their court
dresses we're made at home by the
maid. Almack's was the fashionable
rendezvous of the elite of London so
ciety; no one was admitted except by
ticket from one of the lady patron
esses. On one occasion my mother
saw one Of her friends, who happened
to be very absent-minded, walk up the
ballroom with only one stocking on,
he having altogether forgotten the
other one. The effect of the pink foot
appearing in contrast to the white silk
stocking on the other foot may be
better imagined than described.-Pau
Mall Gazette.

NoN-sINKAsLE BOAT.

The Board Of Supervising Inspect
DTS Of Steam Vessels Of the United
States has indorsed the merits Of the
Eaglehart coIIapsfble boat, and au-
thorized the adoption OF the same on
passenger steamships A contract for
building one Of the boats has already
been awarded The question Of pro-
viding sumcient lifeboats on trans
Atlantic and coastwise steamers has
for q number OF years been q serious
one. The ordinary IifebOat takes up
too much room, and II was In hope OF
providing something more compact
that a number Of inventors have for
several years been experimenting
alsng these lines. Capt Valdemar
EngIehart Of Copenhagen, Denmark,
has been one Of the most successful
Of these in his experiments. He has In
vented the boat mentioned above,
which not only presents excellent
features in taking up One-third the
space Of an ordinary Efeboat. but is
said to be nnsinkable- The new boat

THE AGE OF HURRY.

There is no backwater to which this
impetuOus tide of hurry has not pene-
trated; and if we try to find one
wherein We may lie in a punt on pink
cushions under a tree We are certain
to be made restless by the long single
boot Of q fussy steam launch or the
short double one Of a tearing motor
car, and instead OF lying still we jump
up and cry, "Oh, wait for me and take
me! I'm in a fearful hurry to get
there and do it with yOu!" And when
we are taken in and have recovered
our breath and are well on our way
there to do it, we remember to ask
where We are bound for and what we
are going to dOl-'A Countess" in the

POLITELY pIsoeEplENT.

Twenty years ago a famous Amerf
can millionaire, speaking Of his IN
ruly and pampered little son, said with
a smile: Yes, Harry is a politely
disObedient boy" The other day,
after a disgTaceful career extending
over two continents, that boy was
placed behind the bars, a prisoner OF
justice His polite disObedience was
but the seed OF future lawlessness-
Obedience is not only the soldiers
first duty, as We have been told, but
the first and most important duty OF
ali Of US; and the place to learn il is
in the home; and the time, when We
are children, says Robert Webster
Jones in the HOusekeepeT- The dan
ger Of acquiring the vice Of disObedi-
ence is not confined to the children
Of the rich alone 1t is a constant
menace in homes Of all grades Of
society. No greater harm can be
done to a child than 70 permit him to
be disObedient, either politely or i'm
politely. There are many troubles
laid up for him who has not learned
early in life 20 obey. Obedience to
parents, obedience to teachers, Obedi-
ence to employers, obedience to the
law, are all allied. Failure in the first
means failure in all
The question is often asked wheth-
er the children Of the present genera
ton are as obedient as we're their
parents and grandparents. Certainly
there is not the outward reverence
that characterized the children Of a
former generation, but we need not
say that the feeling OF respect and the
desire to obey are not there. The dan
ger, however, is right here: that the
omission of the outward appearance
Of reverence and obedience may lead,
in time, to the omission Of those vir-
tues themselves. The parent who per
mits child to grow up without learn
ing and learning thoroughly, this
great lesson of obedience, commits a
crime against society. There are pris-
Ons waiting for the politely disObedi-
ent boy"

THE BRITISH EMPIRE.

The British Empire occupies about
one-fifth Of the surface Of the habi-
table globe and consists of the United
Kingdom, with It's attendant islands,
and about fOTty-three dependencies
under separate and Independent gov
ernments, varying in size from Can
ada, which is thirty times the size Of
the United Kingdom, TO Gibraltar. the
area Of which is two square miles.
. Thus the area of the Brit
ish Empire is ninety-eight times that
Of the United Kingdom, while the
area Of the self-gOverning colonies
alone is nearly sixty times as large
as that Of the mother country.-LOrd

vic diseases have no idea that their
trouble IS due to catarrh. The ma jority
of the people think that catarrh IS a
disease confined to the head alone.
This is not true. Catarrh is liable to
attack any organ of the body; throat,
bronchial tubes, lungs, stomach, kid
neys aEl especially the pelvic organs.
Many a woman has made this discOv-
cry after a long siege Of useless treat
ment- She has made the discovery that
her disease is catarrh, and that Peruna
can be relied upon to cure catarrh
wherever located
