No Ban on Small Soldiers.

Concession to the slight statue
of the Porto Ricans is made in a
general order just issued by
the general staff of the army pro-
viding that five feet two inches
shall be the minimum height of
men admitted to the Porto Rican
provisional regiment. Hereof
fore the minimum height for the
insular regiment has been five
feet five inches, which is the
height required for admission to
the regular army in the United
States. The new order does not
extend TO officers of the Porto
Rican regiments, who will still
be required to come up to
American standards.
Other minimum measurements
are also reduced by the general
order in proportion to the height.
Recruits five feet two inches tall
are required to have chest
measurement of 81 inches at ex-
piration and mobility of the
chest amounting to two inches.
one hundred and twenty.four

weight for this height.--Ex.

Noble Sentiments.

What can we do? We can
help man. We can help clothe
the naked; feed the hungry. We
can break the chains of poverty
from the poor cripples of the
earth. We can help weave
garment of joy that will finally
cover this world.
Go around the world, and
where you find the least super
stition, there you will find the
best men, the best women, the
best children. Two powerful
levers are at work-'ove and in
telligence. The true test of man
is generosity, that covers a null
titude of sin.
| believe the family to be the
hottest of holies, and where there
is a good family, there virtue
dwells with love. 1t is a lily
with a heart of fire-the fairest
flower in all the world.
Ignorance is a poor pedestal
to set virtue upon; and mock
modesty should not have the
right to prevent people from
knowing themselves. Every
child has a right to be well born
and ignorance has no right to
people the world with scrofula
and consumption.
Real victories can only be won
for the right, The triumph Of
justice is the only peace. Such
is the nature of things. He who
enslaves another cannot be free,
He who attacks the right assaults
himself.
Gratituue is the fairest flower
that sheds its perfume in the
heart.
Courage without conscience is
a wild beast. Patriotism with
out principle is the prejudice of
birth-the animal attachment to
place.
When the will defies fear, when
duty throws the gauntlet 30wn
to fate, when honor scorns to
compromise with death, that is
heroism.
| would wish that the friends
who bid us good night in this
world would greet us with good
morning there. Just as long al
we love one another we will hope
for another world; just as Ions
as love kisses the lips of death
we will believe and hope for a
future reunion. | would moi
take-on hope away from thu
human soul.

From the London Standard.
One of the most appalling pictures of
modern life ever painted has been given to

practiced on the occasion of the Dosah,

festival of the Egyptians year No good
dervish can suffer pain under any tor

other ground glass between their teeth.
other mutilated themselves with knives

triumphed.
As they arrived at the place of trial they
fell violently upon their faces. They were
packed by Others close together, so as to
leave no space between the bodies where
the horse might set its hoofs, and thus
they formed one long pavement over
which the animal was to walk. The latter
was a big solid cob, shod. and ridden by
a heavy man. One man, shrieking with
horror, leaped ana ned from ms place III

crowd and flung into his place. The horse
walked over the bodies, upon them. The
scene. as graphically and Indignantly de-
scribed in Mt. Buffers book, is too ter

wounded were sent away to Cairo, and
the dead buried secretly, lest it should be
