The writer says: Strang-e, indeed, that so near Berlin so old-time and curious a community could have remained reasouablj' uncon taminatcd by the hordes of picnickers. The Spreewald is too near a great cap ital for foreigners to hear much of it. The museums and palaces of Berlin, the palaces of Potsdam, absorb all the spare energy of foreign visitors. And for convenient, outflights it is a little too far for most burghers of Berlin. Seme have country places in and near the Spreewald. Many visit it occasion ally. It is a favorite place for people from Dresden and Leipsio who can give several days to exploring- its watery labyrinths. Especially for the teaching guild is it a favoriie resort. Every vil lage has its itms, and at Burg, where Vcndish services are held in the old chim-h and the costume remains the most antique, there arc several famous taverns. One is the blcachery where Frederick the Great established a col ony of dyers and weavers, who have dis appeared, although the art is still prac ticed by private means for personal use in many farmhouses. But. the fine green, orange, pink and lilac headdress es and the turquoise, gray and yellow skirts are now bought at Cottbus or in Berlin. Color Line In British Army. Vi1h all England's condemnation of the social disadvantages to which the colored race is subjected in. the United States, she is giving abundant evidence of being imbued with radical preju dices that are every bit as strong. Thus, the volunteer regiments of the great universities have declined to ad mit to their ranks students of Indian or of African origin, and a number of other volunteer and militia corps, in cluding the Inns of Court- batallion, composed of members of the legal pro fession, have followed suit.

" A life on the ocean wave, - - ' And a home on the rolling deep. Where the scattered waters rave And the winds their vigil keep.' "I don't know that 1 have the quota tion exactly right,"" said Mr. Biiileby, according to the New York' Sun, "but it will serve as an introduction to what I want to say. "I am very fond of yachting, but I don't go as much as I wouW lake to, on account of the expense. But I am not without the enjoyments of yachts ing; for when the desire for water comes over me, as it does every sum mer, I manage to go yachting at home. "Every spring I buy about a pound of tar, which I keep in a bottle tightly corked. When it comes along some drowsy summer day, and I feel that I would like to be lying on deck baking in the sun, with the yacht nodding along lazily in the summer breeze, then I take a trip at home. "That night I eat fish for dinner, or clam chowder, and I go to bed early. Before going to bed I start the water running in the bathroom; the sound of it makes the waves, lapping against the bow of the boat. I clew up the awnings only partly; the starting of the awnings when the wind gets in their folds does for the swaying sails. I bring out the bottle of tar and un cork it, and set it on a chair up by the head of the bed. I douse the glim and tumble into bed, 'Rocked in the oradle of the deep.' " Food Lawn in France. France knows how to protect the rights of her people. Anybody who doubts the genuineness of an article of food that he has purchased from a Parisian tradesman may take it to the municipal laboratory for anaylsis. It will cost him nothing to have it ana lyzed and the fact determined whether it is unadulterated or adulterated, and if the latter the law deals with the oiTender without further action on the part of the purchaser. The shopkeeper is liable to be heavily fined and im- Iprisoned, and has to display con- 's:Tiifiinii:l v In niR fihrm window nr rvn his door for a year a large placard bearing the words: "Convicted of Adulteration."
