PAYING MILLIONS A MONTH To persons who served in the wars of the United States or to their Widows, Children, or Parents. Do You receive a pension ? Had You a relative in the War of the Rebellion, Indian or Mexican Wars on whom you depended for support? THOUSANDS ARE ENTITLED UNDER THE NEW LAW 1 1 Cliffs Within the Arctic Circle Where Millions Nest. Within the arctic circles are the great bird colonies. The largest and most remarkable is that of Svaerholt Klubben. Every inch of this wonderful cliff,, which rises about one thousand feet from the water"s edge and is of consid- . erably greater breadth, says the Den- i ver Times, may be said to be used by j the birds. The discharge of a small cannon in the immediate neighborhood will darken the air with millions of birds, but even then a field glass will reveal the innumerable ledges white with the undisturbed millions. j These consist almost entirely of the ' small gull (Itissia tridactyla), and they are a source of considerable incomo to the owner of the colony, who lives at the little fishing station close by. j About the middle of May each year, by means of a long ladder placed against 1 the foot of the cliff, he proceeds to col-1 lect the eggs. Of these there are at most three to each nest, and the num ber taken averages from six thousand to ten thousand annually, or the prod uct of, say, three thousand pairs of birds. Ropes are not used for this purpose at Svaerholt, as they are in the Faroe isles. o thai tho lilirVies of i'm nhnvc figures represent oniy a very small per centage of the yearly production of the colony, mm by far the greater portion of the cliff face, where the nests are packed as closely as they can be, re mains absolutely untouched.

ChkeCo A Precious Mone tv'liit li Is Just Now the Fad of the f-nidiloiiulile. A precious stone on which the decree of fashion has. nt tins present moment, set a fancy value is the piridot, or "evening emerald," as it has been called. It is certainly a lovely stone, with its exquisite shades of transparent green, the best suggestion of whose hue is the effect produced by looking at the litrlit, thrnnch n delicate leuf. . Jewelers sav that the peridot is a species of olivine, of the same class as the beryl, nqnuimirine and topaz and that it is, in fact, the ancient "topa.ion," otherwise known as the chrysolite. It la found in Egypt, Ceylon and lira7.il, good crystals being extremely rare. Of its various shades of green olive, leaf, pistachio, or leek the clear leaf green is the most admired us a rule. At a recent fashionable wedding one of the most beautiful and costly of the presents was a set of ornaments coin posed of peridots set in amethysts; the blending of the soft mauve green was exquisitely artistic. Of all the precious Btones the peridot la the most dltncult to polish, nuys the 1 jiladelphia Time. The final touch la given on a copper wheel, moistened with'sulphuric acid. The stone has the peculiarity of becoming soluble. Some times it is rut in rose form, or en cabochon, like the carbuncle, but it is better and more valuable when worked in small steps, us the brilliance la there by increased. A Valuable Manuscript. A hithertounknown work of Maimon- idea, the greatest Jewish theologian and philosopher of the middle agen, lias been discovered by Prof. Custer among antimliT of Hebrew manuscript, which he acquired from the cast, and is soon to lie published by him, with a transla tion and note. It Is a short treatise written In Hebrew, entitled "Commen tary on the Sacred ami I'rofane Xuinca of (iod In the IV litateiich, by Uabbi Mosca lien Maltnon." Intended aa a guide to the aerilicH of the Sacred Scroll, who, if they miule a mistake. could erase and rewrite the profane names of si run f e dei'lin, but might not rraxe the Micn-d nuim a of (iod, and ao must copy over tlie.wliolc column. BROKEN UP INTO FACTIONS. The House or Commons a Network of Small Parties with Diverse Objects. Parliament is no longer in the main the image of the whole nation, says the London Spectator; it is a network of petty miniatures of all sorts of fac tions of the nation, the Irish party; the Welsh party, the disestablishment party, the temperance party, the labor party, the socialist party, and the anti vaccination party. The larger inter ests, moreover, are all growing weaker, and the smaller interests stronger. Even the conservatives can hardly hold together on the traditional lines. They go home to dinner while the smaller groups, full of the petty enthusiasms which are engendered of sectional di visions, ignore the wants of the body for the pleasure of taking their little revenges and enjoying the sense of their temporary power. And the reason of this is, we suppose, that not only the house of commons, but the na tion itself, is more set upon small things than it used to be and less anx ious about its larger and more charac teristic life. Not only the house of com mons but the nation, is in fragments. "A plague of microscopes," as Emerson said of Goethe, has fallen upon it. The habit of devoting one's self to small causes has superseded that large sleepy pride in national integrity which used to predominate among us. Instead of being Englishmen any longer, we are almost all of us becoming devotees of some small, though it may be excellent, purpose, the relative insignificance of which we quite forget. We have become - absorbed in bimetal lism or monometallism, or in ar dent opposition to the opium traffic, or in the Gothenburg system, or in pro portional representation, of women' suffrage, or in recreation classes for the overworked, or in children's break fasts. All these may be most useful objects, but we have lost our hold of the true proportion of things. We are forgetting that the whole significance of life depends upon the dne propor tion of our interests, and that a man who is more eagerly devoted to the pur poses of his group than he is to the purposes of country is really even more lost to his country than if he Ignored politics altogether, for in the former case he adds to the disintegrating forces of the hour, whilo in Vho latter casp ho is rnorol" nnntral.

A MUSCULAR "SCRVANT. Trained to carry Ammunition and to Meek Out the Wounded In liattle. Some very interesting experiments as to the utility of war dogs were recent ly made m connection with the Dres den international dog show on the race course near Dresden, says a foreign exchange. A company was supposed to be covering some transports of horses against an imaginary enemy. In order to do this more effectually some non-commissioned ofllcers, accom panied by dogs, were sent forward to watch the approach of the enemy. They advanced about a mile and a quarter, whilst keeping up communi cation with the company by means of the dogs. In this way the company was kept fully informed as to the movements of tho enemy, and could stop the transport of horses in good time before the attack. The same dogs were nlso used for carrying ammunition to the tiring line, each dog being provided for this pur pose with a kind of saddle holding about three hundred cartridges. The animals will go along tho lines, stop ping in front of every man, who takes the nfunhcr of cartridges he requires. When the ammunition is exhausted the dog will hurrv back to receive a fresh supply, and thereupon resume the dis tribution. The dogs are also trained to find the wounded and attract the attention of the ambulance men in various wnys, some remaining near the man and barking until assistance arrives, stuuc running o:T to tiud un ambulance man mil lend him to the spot, ami othiri taking the man's forage cap or teuring away a piece of his clothing and carry ing it to the attendants. earliest of women riders, and it is said was taken to task for it by the king, her uncle, but succeeded in converting both him and the queen before the mat ter was ended. The young queen of Holland rides, while the princess of Wales and her daughters ride tricycles at Sandringham, and even appeared in the parks of Denmark on tandem tri cycles. With such high examples, of course, the ladies of the nobility are not left behind; and some of them possess very beautiful wheels of ivory or silver plate and oxidized metal. Lady Dudley owns one enameled in white, with lining of blue and gold, and ivory handles. But with all this magnificence these ladies probably reap no more pleasure or benefit than the untitled American who spins alon;r democratic roads on a plain black and nickel wheel, the equal for the time being of any duchess or queen ot them all. BACK YARDS ARE WASTED. Old Gardener Tells How the Suae Can He Well I'tlllied. An old gardener told a Cincinnati Times-Star reporter that the most won derful thing about city folks is their ig norance of what they could do with tho little stripsof ground surrounding their houses, and especially with their back yards. "They aro not big enough for lawns," said he, "so most people just use them to walk on, but if they had some gumption they could enjoy many a garden delicacy of their own raising. A strip twenty feet long and a foot wide against the wall would furnish enough grapes for two to eat. Tho next foot would supply them with peas; the next with beans; the next with radishes and turnips and lettuce; one bush in each of the four corners would produce plenty of gooseberries; another foot in width ' would supply all the strawberries, another foot raspberries; another, blackberries; another a month's supply of potatoes; another, sweet potatoes; another with several fine messes of corn, and so on. There are ten feet plauted, but give what I have named twenty feet, as almost any oily back yard could do, and they would grow wonderfully. A back yard twenty by twenty would rniso plenty of amall truck for two people, yet how manr back yards aro wasted!" RUPTURE Instantly Relieved and Permanently (CURED WITHOUT Knifo or Operation.
