 Goose ImnIOrtaIized by Dickens.
 The great Dickens never wrote any thing about pig. but he immortalized goose. Recall that famous goose of the Craehit's Christmas dinner. There never was such goose. Bob said he didn't believe there was ever sneh a goose cooked. Its tenderness and fla vor. size and cheapness were the themes of. universal admiration, Fixed out by apple sauce and mashed pota- toes it was a sufficient dinner for a whole family; indeed as Mrs. Crachlt said with great delight (surveying one small atom of bone upon the dsh), they hadn't ate 1t all at last; yet every one had had enough and the youngest Crachits in particular were steeped in sage and onion to the eyebrows"

Special Cable to The Advertiser by
 Henri buBois
 Paris, Dec. as.--M. F4arduin, who is considered one of the most brilliant of French writerss has pronounced him self as follows, concerning the difficulty between Japan and the United StatesE
 War between the United States and Japan will not break out under present conditions. At least that seems moat probable: but 1t will inevitably occur in a more or less near future"
 Why? Because humanity Is sub jected to certain physical influences from which 1t cannot escape
 "As it was predicted (by me)' that the Russians would be driven out of Man churla. so can 1t be foretold that in the struggle between America and Ja- pan, it is the latter which will be Over- come.
 This will not be due to any reason of superior military value, but because of general physical law, superior influence.
 'f have once before explained what this law is. The earth revolves from west to east, and humanity Is swept in the opposite direction by the solar rays which strike this planet. By reason of this movement the throngs of human it's descend from the lofty plateaus of Abld anu kuauS tHSiT way dCFOhS europe till they came to the ocean which stop ped them.
 ''But as soon as America was diacov. cred the westward march of humanity began again. The struggle which has begun between America and Japan As only a further evidence of this west ward trend of humanity forever pushed onward by the solar rays.
 This is why the Americans will ba victorious over the Japanese who will have to fight not only against men. hut against the forces of nature. This Is the reason why the Russians, having undertaken to march against the sun. were hurled back upon their tracks,"
 
 French court has just awarded damages amounting to 9l,00O to the parents of a little servant who recently died of overworlS. The child who was only about 16 when she took a. posi- tion as general servant in a family of three people, of which one was a small baby, was strong and in perfect health. Tn a year, at the advice of a doctor. she was sent back to her parents com pletely broken down and shortly died of cerebral meningitis.
 It has transpired In the course of the debates that the girl was obliged to- rise very early, work like a slave all day and get up several times during the night to attend to the mother and baby. When she complained of fatigue. she was threatened with the docking of her wages, and when she eventually fell ill, her employers refused to give her any money at all to go home.
 The child had taken the place in orr der to help her old parents, who were unable to do much work themselves.

 The alchemist who had long been experimenting with view to the manufacture of gold. believed that he had at last solved the problem. One night he called his wife and three ohil- dren into his laboratory and showed them what appeared to be a nugget of gold.
 While he was explaining to them the process by which he had manufactured the gold he happened to push basin containing gunppwder near to the lamp
