Russia's Great Library.

One Of the greatest monuments to
the memory of that benevolent despot,
Peter the Great, is the imperial IL
brary of Russia, established by him in
liza. Present ranking places 1t third
among the worlds great libraries. 1t
is preceded by the National library of
Paris and that of the British museum
of London. 1t contains 100000 vol
umes and $4,000 manuscripts The
most important accession 1t ever re-
ceived was probably at the time of the
suppression of the Society OF Jesus In
Russia, when most of the Jesuit col
lections were transferred to the i'm
perial library. Among them was the
famous collection Of Count Zaluski
consisting of 100000 volumes and TO-.
900 manuscripts. The most important
manuscript in the library Is the Go
dex Sinaiticus" OF the Greek Bible
brought to Russia by Prof. Tischen
dorf in 1859 from the convent Of st
Catherine on Mount Sinai.

Poetry Won Bandits Heart.

Prof Bliss Perry tells story to IL
lustrate the advantages OF literary
wisdom. A friend, he says, was trav-
cling In French mountains when on
lonely road he was stopped by high
waymen, his life threatened, and his
valuables demanded. His literary in
stincts we're to the fore, even in his
extremity, and half unconsciously he
burst forth with an appropriate coup
let, quoted from some obscure French
poet
Hold" cried the leader Of the high
waymen. my comrades, this gentle
man is acquainted with the works OF
our friend, NJ. So-and-So! He is, then,
our brother"
The purse was returned, courtesies
extended, and the traveller and three
bandits adjourned to an inn near by
and spent a pleasant evening.-Bos.

Queer Effect of Extreme Cold.

Some idea of the effect of extreme
cold can be gained from the account
given by DR.. Kane Of an incident
which occurred when an expedition
went north in search of Franklin. The
crew organized some amateur the
atrlcals, says Dr. Kane, and the con-
densation was so excessive that we
could bo, ely see the performers; any
extra yehemence of delivery was ac-
companied by volumes of smoke;
their hands steamed. When an excited
performer took off his coat he
steamed like a dish Of potatoes"

Abelard and Helolse.

Heloise was noted as much for her
Intellectual ability as for her personal
beauty. She was familiar with the
literature of four or five languages
Italian, French. Greek, Latin and
Hebrew. Her knowledge was remark
able, her conversational powers were
brilliant. II was her bright mind and
varied learning that first attracted the
attention of Abelard. Abelard died
1142, Heloise 1l6i. First buried at st
Marcel, Abelard's remains were shift
ed several times, but finally reached
the well-known tomb at Pere-la- Chaise
wherein also rest the ashes of Heloise

KNOWLEDGE OF Reality.

Nothing is so valuable as knowI-
edge of reality No other knowledge
is permanently valuable without It..
The extent to which the human mind
Is capable OF deceiving itself with
knowledge of phenomena, the better
to avoid the temporary discomfort of
recognizing the vital truths of prog
ress, is only less remarkable than the
extent of the power 1t is capable Of
exerting when once inspired by the
consciousness that it has become the
vehicle CT some truth necessary for
the worlds advancement.-Willi

Tjnfoii Valuable.

Several of the best-known choco
late manufacturers on the continent
are advising customers not to throw
away the tinfoil In which the choco-
late is enveloped, but to keep 1t until
called for by an agent, who will gladly
pay the market price for it. The pres
ent high price of tin is due to the &C
ton of English and Dutch spectators
who have forced 1t far beyond its
actual value The chocolate industry
in Europe spends nearly $4,O0o,OOC
annually for tinfoil which is generally
thrown to the winds.

Tha American In Canada.

The American farmer is a practical
man: there is no cleyerer-headed citi-
zen in the world, and moreover he Is
frankly honest. When he finds in
Canada system Of jurisprudence un-
der which law is everywhere respect
ed. when he learns that Canada has
never seen a lynchng. that Canadian
history tells of no Indian wars, he Is
very willing to acknowledge that
there is little here he would wish to
change. The fact is that In his gen
eral views and attitude toward life
no one is more like Canadian than
an American. The fact that they are
subjected to similar environment and
TO the same broad sweeping continen-
tai forces readily explains how by
merely crossing north or south an
imaginary boundary line Canadian
and American alike pass from one citi
zenship to another with far less fric
ton than an Englishman can he trans
