SPLENDID PRIVILEGES.

Each passing year leaves its mile
stone to mark the fall of throne. If
the royal prerogative itself is not set
aside altogether, new limitations are ap-
piled that render it but a name, and a
tribute to the traditions it stands for.
The Republican spirit is abroad in the
world, and this nation is responsible
in a tremendous degree for its universal
flight and adaptation. There is, within
all this, lesson of supreme Importance
to the American citizen. He must keep
his country and Government beyond re-
proach in the manner and form of its
administration and in jealous analogy
with the glorious principles that actuat-
ed its founders and made possible the
record and example that is so readily
used by nations abroad. II is the great
est and most masterful thing in the
compass of human action to be able to
guide word in the vital processes and
successes of government, and TO hold the
privilege we must be Sans Peur ct Sans
Rsproche."

SIGN OF AWAKENING.

The National Anti-Duelling League of
Spain, which hopes soon to make the
killing Of ones man in an affair of honor
just common murder, is going about its
work in a way which shows a keen ap-
probation of the national character.
One Of its most illustrious converts is
Jose Echegaray the dramatist, who has
written a play in which duelling is held
up to ridicule. The spirit of him who
laughed SPANS chivalry away" must
look down with kindly interest upon the
efforts of his successor in a worthy
cause BY the way, can't some Ameri-

AT THE DANGER POINT.

The limitless scope of inventions that
contribute to personal comfort and con-
yenience, nova days, in the public and
semi.phblic places used daily and hour
ly by the masses, is slowly but surely
setting up an arbitrary standard of
utility and service that far out.reaches
the limit of the ordinary purse and tends
to mimify the normal and home environ
ment of the poor man. The endless
line of splendidly appointed eontrivances
in hotels, offices, factories, and other
common resorts of the great bulk of
working and travelling humanity, never
find truer measure of contrast than
when the restricted elements of person
al comfort in the home are in full play
of comparison, to the latter's reproach.
This may sound farfetched but bit of
logical figuring and the application of
personal experience to the question, will
reveal the tendency to discomfort and
supply one of the unconsidered causes
for it. The remedy, unlike the cause, is
in the hand and heart of the poor man
himself, and must be applied and assim-
Hated as he shall have the courage and
manliness to use it.
