King Long Sought by Greece.

Norway is not the first country that
has had trouble to find a king. Bull
garia sought the sovereignty of prac-
tically every royal prince of Europe
and the plight of Greece was even
more remarkable. By 100000 votes
out of 241 900 the Greeks elected the
duke Of Edinburgh their king, but
the British parliament would have
none of it. The duke of Saxe-Coburg
would have accepted the crown, but
not, as they wanted, merely until his
nephew, the prince of Coburg- Cohary.
should come of age. The Due d'Au-
male and the king of Portugal, the
then Lord Stanley and Sir George
Grey were also among the unrespon-
sive desirables. 1t was almost as u

There is greater hope for Russia

cannot say positively that the worst

have been at ST. Petersburg to discuss
the placing of new loan have post
poned negotiations. They are to
leave ST. Petersburg tomorrow. Man

some time ago by the revolutionists
that future loans made while the
autocracy was in power would be re-
pudated after il was Overthrown. The
bankers seem to think it may be over
thrown.-Chicago Tribune.

WIRELESS" ON THE RAILWAYS

The American consul at Chemni'z
states in consequence of numerous ac-
cidents on the railways of Germany.
the question of employing wireless
Telegram ply for the purpose OF keeping
trains apart is being discussed. TWO

menced. and they are said to have
been continued until recently on tn"

The experiments are unOfticlaliy re
ported to have shown that the dlher-
emf stations on the line can at any
time communicate with tram run

states further that ii is not eXpec'e"

The peasants are rapidly being con
verted to belief in the creed that the
land belongs to those who till it..
Their education has gone so far that
peasant congresses are held in which
the large land owners. the state offic-
ials. and the priests are denounced as
enemies. Even if peace shall be re-
stored in the cities the increasing pop
ulatiol will remain to be dealt with.
The reforms in government conced-
ed by the car ought to pacify. and
probably will pacify the educated
classes They will gain all that they
can reasonably ask for. They should
place themselves on the side of the
government as against the social
democrats and revolutionary social
lists. The latter will not abandon
their campaign for land and liberty

are imbued with socialist ideas, will

Biped and Quadruped Hogs.

The Arabians may beat us on

but when it comes to swine, America

EDUCATION ALONE NOT ENOUGH
Natural Ability Also Requisite in
Achievement of Success.

The Self-Hade man is always per-
son of brains, resourcefulness and
ambition, otherwise he would never
be heard of. He may lack the ad-
vantages of a collegiate education, but
he learns in the school OF experience
and thus becomes educated in those
things that are necessary to success.
The business world is full of men to-
day-men who are known as cap
tains of industry never saw
the inside of a college or high
school Of course. it is recognized
that, all things else being equal, the
men with the best education will
make the most rapid strides in adj
vancement. But at the bottom there
must be natural ability. The era of
the self-made man will not be past
until the time comes when children
of the poor are born with less brain
power than children of the well-to-dO.

cHEAPNEsS OF BUILDING STONE
Result of the Development of the &C.
ment Industry.

Result OF inc OcNCIOpIIICTt VI AuC SC-
ment Industry.
It is now quite possible to have the
exterior of a house built of stone at
price not much greater than the
cost of clapboards or shingles. This
condition of things has come about
through the development of the &C.
ment industry in this country. Given
reasonable access to transportation
line and a sand bank, and the posi-
bility of a stone house is yours. One
part of cement, two or three parts of
sand, and four to seven parts of
gravel or broken stone, mixed to-
gether with enough water to make
paste, will produce stone that is
next to granite in hardness and
strength, not affected by fire, as are
marbles and limestones, and much
less susceptible to injury by frost
than sandstone.-Country Life in

Care and Attention.


Care and Attention.
Knee-deep in the sweet straw the
race horse munches his oats. or like a
tired boy he stretches himself in his
bedding end enjoys that delightful re-
pose which comes after strenuous
play. They close the doors on him
ana keep him from prying eyes. He
is a winner now and he has paid for
the months down there on the farm.
His boy sleeps with him or near him
No moment is he forgotten or neg
lected. If he stirs in the night there
is a voice to calm him. Ii he leaves
a cup of oats in his box the fact is
nervously reported. The water which
he drinks is given at proper tenn
perature, and when next he goes forth
for battle, he is the thing which
great crowd rises to and applauds as
he comes from the obscurity of the
sheds. He is the perfect product OF
human care.-Metropolitan Magazine.
