sPAiN's SUMMER CAPITAL.

San Sebastian, the summer capi-
tai of Spain, is growing seaport
city and the capital of the Basque
province Of Guipuscoa, in which
Carlist sentiment is believed 10 be
strong. The city is situated on the
peninsula at the base of a steep hill,
which is crowned with one of the
strongest castles in SPAN. The
shore along the roadstead is most
beautiful and many thousands Of
visitors are attracted to the place
every year. The king has fine pal
ace there, known as Mirawar, and
the court is often transferred to it
during the hot weather.
San Sebastian has undergone nu-
merous sieges, the most memorable
of which was in 1918, when a
French garrison Of 5000 men held
the city for time against the duke
Of Wellington. The English loss in
the siege was 5000 men, and on its
capture the greater portion of the
place was burned.

IGNORANT MAN WAS PacFAsE
About. he 10 Rot Likely
60 Swear.

Two men were disputing violently
as TO a matter which we knew good
deal about. They we're strangers,
and we simply overheard them. Thew
seemed to be mad and each contend
ed, with much gesticulation and
some profanity. for his side Of the
case. Now the fact is neither knew
what he was talking about. They
were both ignorant of the fact in
volved. They had sem half or q
quarter Of it and thought they had
seen it all.
Ignorance is inclined to get verv
demonstrative. 1t sometimes. ,erv
often, gets wild and swears. When
q man swears in an argument. then
it is pretty certain he is wrong. The
truth doesn't make a man swear It
tends to soften him and subdue his
emotions. And when a person gets
violent and begins to rage and swear,
he should stop short and say to
himself: "There, | am wrong again
l will build little altar to truth.
send up some sweet incense. and
maybe will win her back" O.
