Accent on the operate Stage.

No Englishman with daughters
could do a rasher thing than permit
them to take lessons from eminent
professors with view of going on
the stage. The opera stage in Eng
land scarcely exists. At Covent ar
den woman who can speak good
English can only get in by force of So
cial influence, and abroad foreigner
has very great difficulty because she
cannot speak or sing with a perfect
accent. The foreign lady or gentle
man comes across here and on oc-
casion will venture to sing in English,
and their mistakes bring nothing more
than smile to the faces of the audi
ence. But let an English singer go to
France or Germany and something to-
tally different happens.
In 1897 Tamagno sang at Monte
Carlo before an audience which was
mainly French. He mispronouncel
a word, and peal of derisive laugh
ter covered even his stentorian notes.
In Brussels l heard an American
tenor laughed at because some of his
yowels were not quite pure-Brusse!s,
where their French is the most vii
famous patois | have ever heard. In
Germany l have heard both French
and English artists laughed at be-
cause their accent was not absolutely
correct Saturday Review.

Day OF the RoiIing stone.

In that place called Monte Carlo
every time the wheel turns and the
ball rolls into Its place, it marks a
fresh condition Of the game, an abso-
.lutely new chance which has nothing
whatever to do with anything that has
gone before or is to appear in the fi-
ture. Each spin ls the year / of the
bnnk. Therefore the bank wins.
America has appreciated the year j,
and that fact has not been unconnect-
ed with yankee success. You will find
that man loses money MS farmer.
n mechanic, book canvasser and sud-
denly rises to wealth as a builder, The
peg has found the hole at last.
An Englishman, unappreciatiye Of
the year !, would have been chained
to failure by the precedent Of centu-
ries. He would have argued that he
had always been a farmer, that his
father was farmer and his uncle
dairyman. Therefore 1t was plainly
impossible that he could ever make
money as builder. In conclusion
ne would have quoted you that fals-
est of all false proverbs, "a rolling
stone gathers no moss"
I say. false" only in the English
application of the ancient proyerb.
For otherwise It is an up-to-date mot
to enough. The rolling stone Of to-
day remains polished and fit for busi-
ness. The stationary stone is liable to
accumulate such quantity OF moss
that it is only fit for n cushion--to be
sat on by all and sundry.-London

EQUESTRIAN STATUE OF PETER
TIE GREAT IN ST. PETERSBURG.

The equestrian statue of Peter the
Great is the Leading monument to be
found in the Russian capital. It
stands in the Admiralty square be-
tween the Isaac Cathedral and the
Neva, toward which the Car is look
ing, while his right hand points to the
city which he founded on a Finnish
swamp. Falconet, Frenchman. cast
the statue, but Marie Collet modelled
the head. The marvellous balance of
the horse is due to the tail, which
weighs 10000 pounds and rests upon
the serpent which the spirited charger
has ,trodden under foot as a symbol of
the difficulties which Peter the Great
overcame at home and abroad. The
huge mass of granite forming the base
weighs 1900 tons and was quarried at
Lakhta, a village on the Finnish coast
four miles from st. Petersburg. 1t is

,Matrimony and Tongues.

A young woman who had graduated
from college and then taken a mas
ter's degree returned home, after two
years of travel abroad, to find that
during her absence her native village
had fitted her out with an embarras-
sing reputation for learning.
To her mingled annoyance and
amusement, she discovered that PEG
pie were surprised to see that she
was much like other ordinary and
agreeable persons, and that perhaps
after all this educating process she
was capable of sus staining the Ia
lions of ordinary life;
Among those who tallsd to see her
soon after her returl were two sec
ond cousins, girls in their early teens.
Their surprise at finding the much
discussed master of arts SO perfectly
lovely appeared during the inter
view in their irgenuous remarks.
AS they we departing from the
yard their words flo tel up through

Value of an Emiorant,

Old DR.. Farr, the late Superinten-
dent of Statistics in the Office of the
Registrar-General, made an estimate
of the money value of a man on the
bases of the capitalized value of his
probable net future earnings. On the
basis of the agricultural laborer's
wages at that time, he calculated that
each indivldual-map, woman and
child-was on an average worth about
clio to the country. In the same
way he calculated that the emigrant
of that time, because OF the larger
proportion of adult males than in the
general population, was worth an
average of about G170 to the coun-
try.
Since the date when these calcula-
lions were made by DR.. Farr wages
have risen, and the future earnings
have been increased by the greater
average length of life. 1t is probable,
therefore, that the average value of
an emigrant at the present time is not
less than G2O0 and of a family of
four persons about $500.
The emigration of 5000 families
would thus mean a loss of about four
million sterling in the capital value
of the population of this country re-
garded merely as profit making ma
chines.-Saturday Review.
