Indignities to q Statue.

The statue of William III. which,.
1t is stated, the Kaiser contemplates:
presenting to London, is not likely to-
have so checkered career as the.
equestrian efigy Of the Prince Of Orr
ange which has literally withstoods
the storm of centuries on College:
Green, Dublin. y.
The Dublin statue has had many an,
escape from destruction. On one oc-s
casion fervent patriot was found
astride the steed calmly cutting or
the head with saw. Later still, I'M
the last century, the statue was
blown up with gunpowder On that
occasion the late Mr.. Ralph Bernals
Osborne ESQ the story goes) sent an
urgent message to Sir Philip Cramp-s
ton, a leading Dublin surgeon, to at-s
tend "a titled gentleman" who had
been thrown from his horse in Cole
lege Green and badly hurt.
During strike OF police in Dublin
the efigy was crowned with q. bat

head for some days.-Pall Mall Gao

To Remedy Damp Walls.

The following simple process is
said to effectually do away with all
Gampness Of walls. Applications are
made alternately of dissolved CASTLE
soap and dissolved alum. Three
fourths Of a pound of soap is melted
in one gallon Of boiling water. The
liquid thus obtained is thoroughly
beaten to cause stiff froth. This
and the water are then completely
incorporated by stirring and made
boiling hot. The time for preparing
the wall should be after long dry
spell, and as the wall must be as free
from moisture as possible this condi-
ton can be assisted by the judicious
use of fires. Then brush the surface
to be covered until as clean as possi-
BILE. With a wide fiat brush coat the
surface with the boiling soap prepar-
alton, working it back and forth un-
til the wall is covered with small bub-
bles. Let it remain twenty-four hours,
to dry out, then apply an alum solu-
ton made by dissolving half a pound
of alum in four gallons Of water.
The alum coating may be nearly at
blood heat. This should stand a day
or two to dry and harden; then an
other application of soap, the same
as the first, must be put on. How
many coats are needed depends on
the condition of the wall; sometimes
half dozen would be necessary,
says Woman's Life. The soap and
alum form a coating insoluble in
water, and this unites with the ma
terial in the wall, filling all of the
crevices and making thoroughly
waterproof surface.-New York Tel
egram.

Wholesome Fruit.

1t would seem like paradox tos
say that fruit both warns and cooIss
the body, but such is actually the:
case. Iu summer its acids temper
and equalize the heat, and in winter;
its sugars warm. Sugar and acid, In
fact, are so equally balanced in this!
food formed in the great laboratorYs
of nature that neither preponderateS
unduly or to the detriment Of the
other. We may take the testimony
Of the birds as to the healthfulnesS
of fruit. The Arabs form good ex-s
ample Of nation that, to a very
large extent, lives on fruit. Who caIi
be more brave than the Arab, or
who possesses more dash and elanas.
"Give an Englishman his beef and:
cheese" says a writer. BY alls
means, we say, but let him and the !,
Americans, too, combine with them
good, wholesome fruit. AS we have
frequently pointed out in these col-.s
umns, the employment Of fruit as an.
article of diet is invaluable, and, We
are happy to say, that its consump
tion in the United States is CONSTANT
ly increasing, and /our California;
fruit is the finest in the world.

Man as a True Sport.
By THE EDITOR OF LIFE.

Our hearty thanks ought to be CIV
en- to certain scientists and other
great men for revealing the fact that
most foods which we like are really:
dangerous to human life. The SIM
pie fact Of eating harmless things
from day to day becomes so monoto-
nous for awhile that half the charm
is gone. When we are told, how
ever, that ali oysters contain more or
less typhoid germs, that milk is In
fected with tubercle-bacilli; that all
maat and fish are afflicted with pto-
maines and that fierce, migratory or
nomadic germs are wandering from
vegetable to vegetable, then the pro-
cess of absorbing food becomes a
genuine sport, enlivened at every
turn by the prospect of being cut.
open for appendicitis, or having our
stomachs removed and renovated by.
willing experts while. we wait.
All of US being gamblers by nature.
it becomes truly a pitiable condition
when there is no longer any harm in:
anything. One-half the pleasure OF;
indulging in what we know to be dan:
gerous is the thought Of what It may
lead to. Is there anything better,
for example, than hot mince piea
Containing, as it does, practically
everything that is not At to eat, so
many complications for the future
are bound up in it that our pleasure
is sure to be enhanced in proportion
to the varieties of danger it repre-.
sents. There is pleasure in the act
of eating it alone, quite enough TO
make it worth while. When we add
to this the thought of the suffering
that may come, the JOY OF the act
rises at once to moral grandeur. It
is just such sacrifices as this that
show the differences between man,
the thinking being, and the brute
beast.
A dog foolishly and instinctively
avoids the things that are not good
for him. A professor Of Greek eats
clam chowder, lobster Newburg and
ice cream because his intellect de-
mands it, and his stomach Graves big
game. Time was when we fought big
game in the jungle. Now we do 1t tn

: A friend, giving no name, sends
