TCRMS AND PniCCS WITHIN THE Risen The English and German Expert Specialists 731 The Bssad Raklau The "round robin" bad its origin several centuries ago in Friuce. It was used,, there by officers of tbe army as a method of expressing their dissatisfaction with the course of the kiug or bis ministers. By signing iu circular form tbe leaders of tbe move ment could not be ascertained and sin gled out for punishment. Tbe first instance on record of tbe ana of this form of protest in the navy oc curred in 1635. At the instigation of the Duke of Buckingham, the king'B favorite, an English fleet, under Ad miral Bennington, was dispatched to Rocbelle to aaist in the coercion of tho Protestant subjects of Louis XIII of Franoe. But the EngliBb tars, in com mon witb their fellow countryman, looked witb favor upon the resistance of tbeir coreligionists against tbe pros elyting zeal ot the French king, and they signed a "round robin," express ing their determination not to fire a shot agaiusc them, and without waiting for a reply they weighed anchor and brought their ships back to England. The admiral, however, received a per emptory order to return to Dieppe, wberenpon tbo wholoof tbe crews quit ted tbe shipa without furtbe parley. Providence Journal. A Dlapearln Ballsey.

Horae Raelasr mu4 Socialism. In the Hilitar Woohenblatt, a leadintr 1 German military organ, Herr Von Ploeta recommends horse racing as a panacea for socialism. He says that the reason why there is no socialism in England is that they encourage horse raning there and that "the love of th sport is th connecting link between all classes of men, enabling tbe poor to comprehend the necessity for a difference of fortune. " Following out Hetr Ploets's idea, it is said that gambling on horse racing is increasing in Germany at a tremendous rate, though so far no diminution of Uclalism baa been noticed. Oae Dar at a Ttaae. It is a blessed secret, says th British Weekly, this of living by th day. Any one can carry his bnrden, however heavy, till nightfall.

Fight today's temptations, and do not weaken and 'distract yourself by looking for ward to th Ings you cannot see and oould not understand if you saw them. God gives us nights to shut down the cur tain of darkness on our little days. We cannot see beyond. Short horizon ; make life easier and give us one ot brave, true, holy living.
