RATE WAR ENDED.
Compromise of Steamship Lines to the
Mediterranean.

New York, Feb. 24.-It was announc-
ed, today, that various steamship
lines in the Mediterranean service have
at last come to an agreement to end
the steerage war that has been on for
two months. the new agreement pro-
viding for a division of the steerage
business between the various lines and
restoring the old agreement as to Diff
ferentials in rates, with some slight
concessions.
The lines affected are the Fabre, the
Italian Line. La Veloce Navigazione, a
F3pore Line, the Anchor Line, the
Prince Line. the Hamburg American
Line. and the North German Lloyd
Line.
Under the old differential agreement
the two German Lines made a steer
age rate og $50 between New York and
Mediterranean ports, the smaller lines
making rate ranging from s25 to So.
Rate cutting was started and for some
times rates have been demoralized.
Daily conferences held by representa-
tivos of the lines for over a week pa st
have now resulted III an agreement
which will be ratified at a meeting of
the officials in a day or two.

ought to at least look good this year,

The King ana the Preacher.

DR.. South on one occasion after
preaching before Charles H., who, by
the way, did not care any more than
the humblest dissenter to listen to u
read sermon, was twitted by the king
Of having read from manuscript
How is it, DIR. South" said his majes-
ty, that you. who are so famous for
preaching without book, should read
your sermon when you preach before
meY' May l answer your majesty
with another question:" replied the
witty doctor. How is it that your
majesty always reads your speeches
to your faithful commons?" "Odsfsh,
doctor" said Charles, because l have
asked them for money so often that by
this time 1 am ashamed to look them
in the face" DR.. South, it must be
admitted, had fairly laid himself open
to the retort.

signs of Old Age.

'.Do you know the surest indication
of old age?" said a physician the other
day. .'The surest indications in man."
he continued, "are moist eye, a dry
palm and shrinking of the calf Of the
leg All the indications are due to
some action Of the nerves consequent
upon advancing years. In the matter
Of the eye the fifth section is interfered
with, and it Is this that causes flow
of water. The dryness Of the palms is
caused by an interference with the
functions of the body, also due to the
action of the nerves. and the shrinkage
of the leg follows from similar causes.
'In old age, too, you notice some men
become more corpuient than in the ear
ly portion OF their lives. With drinking
men the change is often produced by
the quantity Of saccharin which they
consume with their drinks, and with
those who do not drink it follows from
other physiological changes. With wo-
men the dimness of the eye does not
come SO soon as it does in men,"

Such an image of course gives power
fully the sense of fiXity. the opposite of
the fluid potentially of youth Yet in
the same poem we have the hint that
not all is glorious in youth:
And oonstancy lives in realms above
And life is thorny, and youth is vain.
Friendship becomes rid of some van
ity, it becomes more noble and satisfy
ing to the deeper thoughts and ideals,
when the roots of it grow back into
long distant past, and if we can keep
the power of making a few new
friends in age as we need them to sup
plement those inherited from youth,
which grow fewer with the years, but
ripper and more select, friendship should
play a satisfying role far along toward
the end Of life, the best role indeed of
its career, il, as Emerson thinks, a life
time is needed for it's completeness,

periods naturally take the place of
