ToLsToYs EXPERIENCE IN WAR

1t is interesting in connection with
tie present war to find in Prince kro-
potlliu's "Russian Literature" an ac-
count of Tolstoy's youthful military
rrc wess. "He lived through all the
dreadful experiences of the defenders
of Sebastopol 3 % g * He has the
RIGHT to speak Of war: he knows it
from within" kropotlin points out
he pertinent facts that Tolstoy ''eb-
-tiaa,ely refused during the siege to
become an officer of the staff and re-
pa ned with his battery in the most
iane orous spots" ard that though he
verse he at that time composed. in
he unusual metre language of sci
he described the blunders of the COM
manders which ended in the Balak-
lava disaster. The song, written in
an admirable popular style could not
BE printed but it spread over Russia
II thousands of copies. and was wide
ly sung. both during and immediately
after the campaign. The name Of the
author leaked out. but there was some
uncertainty as to whether it was the
author Of the Sebastopol sketches or
some other Tolstoy." And now Toll
stoy's son is taking part in the new
war. The fathers attitude is reflected
n a letter written recently by Nine
i'olstoy to friend: "Some imagine
that the pcpole are regarding war and
death with wisdom and equanimity.
This is not correct | am living in
the country. I have seen son of my
own off to war. I have experienced
and seen these partings with heart
rendng grief, and never have I wit
messed aught else than tears, sorrow
and condemning of the cause for
which the men were being sent away.

LOVE AND BLACK PAINT,

Cupid has been after H. H, Cook
with a sharp stick.
II. Fl. Cock lives in Elgin. I'll.
II seems that Cupid has q summer
home at Elsin and spends good
deal of time there.
One of the favorte haunts of Gu
pid's estate is Lovers Lane.
Now this lane runs directly past
Cooks house. and right under Cock :
bedroom window is a garden seat.
What good would a Lovers Lane
hc without garden seat?
But Cook. cruel. heartless Cook,
objects. He says he can't sleep with
such silly talk going on under h =
window. OF course il would be in
teresting enough to keep almost any
one awake. but Cock wants to sleep
At night when one cart sleep
thoughts are likely to come 10 one.
Thoughts came 10 Cook. ugly, inhu
man thoughts
One CT these thoughts was that Tor
few cents he could buy q paint brush
and can Of black paint annd give
that particular garden seat bad repu-
tation.
This he proceeded 10 do He was
not satisfied with giving the seat one
reputation. He put fresh one on
every night for a week CT so.
Then Cupid discovered what was
doing. He GOT thought, too.
Four couples swore out warrants
ard Cock was arrested.
Anyone who sets traps for any of
CGpids summer boarders wants to
keep both eyes open and go easy on

BEGGARS OF THE WORLD.

Wherever there are men there are
Deggars. Every nation has its mand-
cants, and, although some people hold
them tG scorn, there are others who
venerate them and recognize their
business as legitimate.
Strangely. the greatest nation of
beggars in the world adjoins that
which has, perhaps, the smallest, or
one of the smallest, percentages of
beggars-and these countries are
Italy and Switzerland.
That beggary is a result Of indol
ence is shown by the fact that the peo
pie OF every warm climate are over
run with mendieants Egypt India,
and Italy are the worst examples.
Among civilized nations besgary has
taken on form of criminalty. The
professional beggar bees, not for want
or prlvatlon. He has reduced his
Whines for help to a fine art which
yields riches in many cases
Werever charity and pity exist there
will be found besgary. The people
with whom the fight for existence is
bitter and productive of ce!fishness
have few who beg while wealth and
luxury breed hordes of parasites who
su5sist upon the kindness of those
who have to give.
The most picturesque beggar in the
world, perhaps, holds place of power
and big pull at Loong Wah in
China. Covered from head to foot
with rags. this man controls the beg
gar industry of province and has
scores of others working for him.
Blindness draws more pity than
anything else, annd most of the beg
sars OF Cuba and Porto Rico either
are blind or feign blindness
The Egyptian beggar often is a pat

and distinguished in plying his trade

trade, especially along the Nile. where
tourists frequently are forced to use
whips or clubs, or hire guides to use
them, to drive away the swarms oi

the boats to beg.

"PAUL'S WALKERS"

A curious usage was brought to an
end on August 8. 1854. when the may
or and common council prohibited the
use of old st. Paul's for such 'irrev-
erent' purposes as buying, selling
promenading, etc, and imposed a fine
on all who should offend in the future
The abuse must have been pretty bad.
for the name of "Paul's Walkers" was
siven to the dandies of the period, of
whom Bacon was one in his youth,
who loved to walk up and down the
aisle of the cathedral at certain fash
ionable hours of the day. The ordi-
nance had to be supplemented by an
other in Elizabeth's reign, when. Gin
