the pertinent facts that Tolstoy ''ob-

become an officer of the staff, and re-
rlained with his battery In the most
dangerous spots. and that, though he
seems never again to have written

the unusual metre language of sol

he described the blunders of the com

lava disaster. The song, written in
an admirable popular style, could not
be printed, but it spread over Russia
in thousands of copies, and was wide

after the campaign. The name of the
author leaked out, but there was some
uncertainty as to whether it was tbs

BEGGARS OF THE WORLD.

Wherever there are men there are
peggars. Every nation has its mandi-
cants. and, although some peop!e hold
them to scorn, there are others who
venerate them and recognize their
business as legitimate.
Strangely, the greatest nation of
beggars in the world adjolns 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 mendicants. Egypt India
and Italy are the worst examples
Among civilized nations beggary has
taken on a form Of criminality. The
professional beggar begs, not for want
or priyation. He has reduced his
whnes for help to a fine art which
yields riches in many cases.
Werever charity and pity exist there
will be found beggary. The people
with whom the fight for existence is
bitter and productive of Eelfshness
have few who beg, while wealth aud
luxury breed hordes of parasites who
subsist upon the kindness of those
who have to give.
The most picturesque beggar in the
| world, perhaps, holds place of power
and a 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.

Basketball as game for women is
increasing in popularity each year. 1t
was invented about twelve years ago
by an instructor in a training school
for boys. The students had tired OF
the monotony of regular gymnastics,
and the teacher endeavored to plan a
new game-cne that would be benH-
fetal to body and mind, and vet be
interesting to the participants. Sever
al things were tried, but beasketbaIl
fell at once into popular favor.
For a while the men and boys mo-
nopcIized the game, but instructors
in physical training for women soon
reccenized it's merit. and it was then
adopted in women's colleges. It sup
pulled a long-felt want combining
as it does. the beneficial results of
gymnasium exercise and the interest
Of competitive sport.
Interesting the game most certain
1y is both to the participants and spec
tators. There is very little expense
attached TO it. and It IS very easy Of
comprehension, so that I cannot think
OF a better game to recommend to my
readers who are looking for a health
fuI sport.
It has the advantage of being both

What on earth is the matter with

Here's another wife winner.
Geo A Witzhoff is said to have
wooed and won 100 wives
We are told that Withoff's busiest
matrimonial week was one in which
he married wife a day
It must be easy to fool woman
Some women must be anxious for
husbands. II they are not, why do
they marry men of whom they kncw
nothing.
Witzhof could have had but ljttle
more than speaking acquaintance
with many of his wives.
How could he so dupe them?
It's a woman's inordinate desire fer
something or someone new that is at
the bottom of such mems matrional
successes.
All man has to DO is to dress in
the latest fashion, fatter the women,
unite his purse strings, drop himself
into a new field of unplucked spinsters

Whereupon Mr Hyde ordered his

The station agent told the conductor

Common people suggested that
good money had been paid for the pas

The conductor was sorry.
Also during the wait the question
was raised as to whether the road ex-
