been greatly reduced, so that the small
farmer receives almost nothing fer hAs

Lucky He Stuck to His Opinion.

Lucky HE stuck to HIS opinion.
Pride of opinion is perhaps the most
common fault of us fairly educated
and intelligent moderns. We form our
judgments and then, as it were, defy
any one to change them. 1t is said
that no one has ever been converted
by abstract argument.
At the time of the great disaster in
Martinique the italian bark Orsolina
was taking on q cargo Of sugar there.
Her captaal was accustomed to v0lca-
noes, and he did not like the appear
ance of Mont Pelee. Not half bis
cargo was on board. but he decided to
sail for home.
"The volcano is all right" argued
the shippers. Finish your loading"
81 don't know anything about Mont
Pelee," said the captain, "but if Vesu-
vius looked that way I'd get out Of
Naples, and I'm going to get right out
Of here"
The shippers threatened him with
arrest. They sent customs officers to
detain him, but the captain persisted
in leaving. Twenty-four hours later
the shippers and the customs officers
lay dead in the ruins Of st. Pierre

The HUNGARIAN Crown.

The Hungarian crown worn at their
accession by the emperors Of Austria
as kings of Hungary is the identical
one made for Stephen and used at his
coronation over 500 years ago. The
whole is of pure gold, except the set
tings, and weighs almost exactly four
teen pounds. The settings above allud-
ed to consist of fifty-three sapphires,
fifty rubies. one emerald and 33S
pearls. 1t will be noticed that there
are no diamonds among these precious
adornments. This is accounted for BY
the oft quoted story Of Stephens aver
sion to such gems because he consid-
cred them "unlucky."

A Miser's Luxury.

There was o Middlesex couple once
who lived on a sum to shock the most
reckless Of our correspondents. Daniel
Dancer was the man. he looked on
saving as an art and saved for arts
sake. His father left him farm and
eighty acres, and his sister helped him
carry out his scheme Of life. BE let
the land lie fallow, says the London
Gest. 1t costs money to cultivate land.
For food the couple believed in one
day, one meal The batch Of dump
lings baked on Saturday lasted out
the week. For clothing he depended
on hay bands "swathed round his feet
for boots and round his body for
coat" But Daniel had weakness.
He would buy a clean shirt each year.
And out Of this arose the tragedy OF
his life-a lost lawsuit over three
pence which, In Daniels judgment, the
shirt seller had wrongfully pocketed.
He died in 1904 worth $4,000 year.

Gxnsy Wordless Language.

To communicate with one another
gypsies now use letters-and they use
the telegraph, too, when necessary
especially in this country. But the
modern Romany also follows the pat
teran," tracing the footsteps or wagon
tracks Of his friends on the road by
the same method employed by his an
cieut prototype, reading directions
where no words are written rs clearly
as the gorgio does roadside sign
board. But the patteran can be read
by the gypsy only-it is hidden and
secret, although 1t may be in plain
sight, as q signboard is open and pub
lie. The patteran may be formed or
sticks or stones or grass placed cross
fashion at the parting Of roads in such
manner that only gypsy would in
stantly notice and understand. To him
it means much-frst Of all, the direc-
ton taken by Romany predecessors

A Test IF Civilization.

The stage of civilization in the cOun-
tries of Europe is tested when cholera
gains such foothold on that continent
as it has now. One of the most terrible
of pestilences puts the efficiency of
governn ents and the development of
society to the proof 1t is certain that
Russia will make bad work of its
struggle against cholera through the
remainder of the summer and the fall.
The Russian authorities have proved
unable to stamp out the disease in ST.
Peters burg, the capital of the car s
empire, in the winter. much less to rid
their metropolis of it in warm wealth
er.
In Southern Italy the conditions are
such that the government will be hard
pressed to stop the pestilence quickly
and prevent it from spreading. Obedi-
ence TO the civil authorities is not Yet
a confirmed habit of thought and act
ION in those parts of the Italian PENN
sula.
But when cholera reaches the Ger
man frontier it will be stopped, almost
absolutely. It may never gain the
smallest foothold in the German en-
pire Austria Hungary will prove near
1y as well able to keep out the pesti-
lence which all Europe breads. France,

How He Got Good Results.

Over in Hartford, Connecticut. they
have beautiful park that the super
intendent thought out to be of great
er interest to the people than they
gave sign that it was. They didn't
come there to see the beauties of ma
ture nor to admire the park officials
dexterously developed flower beds, nor
to rest their souls in the peace and
quiet of the place. And the superin-
tendent of the park wondered why
and then he wondered how he could
bring 1T about to make them come.
He bethought himself of music. But
probably he didn't have any right to
hire a band. Perhaps he preferred q
simpler arrangement than that in
volving a lot of players. We don't
know how this was. but what hap
pened was that he advertised an auxe-
tophone concert for q certain evening.
and, providing the music machine, he
sat himself down and waited.
And 10! the people came. They
came in numbers that threatened the
welfare of the grass; they came in
numbers to do the Superintendent
heart good. They came to hear the
music, and without doubt they saw
the park and after that came again
and again and got their moneys worth
of pleasure out of their investment in
the park. Perhaps they lent their in
dorsement to the music in the park

preferring mechanical music. Perha ps
they will wisely conclude that though
it's pleasant tc listen to music, after
all the parks the thing, with it's flow
ers and trees and green grass, and
space and sun and shade-and quiet
and peace and rest.
How this all is we do not know,
Time enough has not gone by to tell.
