'FAVGRED ELDEST SON.

| THE DOCTRINE OF PRIMOGENITURE | IN DIFFERENT NATIONS.

— —_—— fei First Born Was of Sacred Import

Ameng the Jews—Greece, Germany,

France, All Divide Equally Among

the Children—The Law as It Is in Canada

Mr, Cecil claims to be the firs: writer who has, so to speak gone all round the world, and all through history, in search of primogeniture. He glances at the Jews With their habit of attaching a sacred im- port to the title of first born. In classical Greeve he finds no trace of primogeniture. Asimancient Germany, equal division was the rule. The Mahomeians know nothing of it, They gave each male iwice as much of the inheritance as two females, and so stopped by anticipation all nonsense about women’s rights. The invading Teuton grafted primogeniture on the Roman juris- prudence by using his system of chieftain- ship as the thin end of the grafting wedge. It grew slowl} among us as a feudal mea- sure, but it was long after the Norman conquest before the descendants of the first-born obtained a settled priority over an older representative of the previous generation. According to Sir Henry Maine, it owes its eventful supremacy to the pitiably low level of social organiza- tion which characterized the declining daysof the Carlovingian Empire. Any- thing was better than chaos, and the old scramble was carrying affairs into that domain.

In the sevententh century Jersey pray- ed for a law of entail to stop the infinite subdivision of its land, and its prayer Was granted.. ‘‘The children of the bet- ter sort, depending on their partitions, give not themselves to trades.’’ It was a mistake, and the island is now slowly working its way back to the old stage of things. Our colonies take their own course, in this as in other matters. In Canada primogeniture has virtually dis- appeared. That is to say, it has not en- foreed by law, and in practice no one thinks of making an eldest son. This is exactly the state of things in the United States. An American enjoys perfect lib- erty of bequest, but he rarcly employs it in beggaring ali his children but one. A few of the older families have indulged in that luxury, and they have their re- ward, such as it is, in a hereditary succes- sion of millionaires. But public opinion is altogether against the practice, and it is generally understood that rough coarse- Hess and brutality must be counteracted at less cost. In Lower Canada equal divis- ion is the rule, without distinction of sex, or primogeniture. They are not of John- son’s way of thinking. ‘‘An ancient estate should always go to males. It is mighty foolish to let a stranger have it be- eause he marries your daughter and takes your name. As for an estate newly ac- quired by trade, you may give it if you will to the dog Towser, and let him keep his own name.’’ The Lower Canadians compel even Towser to share and share alike with the rest of the family.

So, notoriously, they do in France. There is an equal distribution among all ‘the children without distinction to sex or age. With this, however, as the princi- ple, there is an option of leaving away a fraction of the property, and out of the _fund thus created slightly increasing the share of any child. But each of the child- ren is quite sure of getting a portion, and by that great principle France stands or falls. It is the chief reason why she stands, though our author fails to see it. The general diffusion, not of wealth, but of means, is the cornerstone of French prosperity. Everybody has something, or the hope of something. None is so poor but he has his prospect of a little inherit- ance. Hence the enormous wealth of the communlty asa whole, the facility with which the people, as distinct from the mere financiers, raise millions in a single night at the back of a Government. There is nothing like it eleewhere in the whole world.—London Daily News.

A Cold Light.

The recent investigations of Professor Ebert form an interesting sequel to the researches of Tesla on the production of electric light with the minimum amount of heat. The goal, of course, is to get the light with no heat atall, except that which naturally belongs to the lumninous rays; that is, to get rid of the obscure or dark heat altogether. Only about five per cent. of the energy expended in an in- candescent lamp is turned into light, the remaining ninety-flve going into waste heat. Professor Ebert has now not only deduced the laws according to which ap- paratus should be made to produce cold light by means of alternating currents of high frequency, but he has succeeded in obtaining a light of about one-thirteenth of a candle power, with about one-thou- sandth of the energy required in one of the standard candle power lamps. This, of course, is a very small light, but Pro- fessor Ebert is confident that lights of practical brightness may be obtained ac- cording to his method.

Don't Snub, a

Don’t snub a boy because he chooses a humble trade. The author of ‘‘Pilgrim’s Progress’’ was a tinker.

Don't snub a boy because he stutters. Demonsthenes, the greatest orator of Greece, overcame a harsh and stammer- ing voice.

Don’t snub a boy because of the ignor- ance of his parents. Shakespeare, the world’s poet, was the son of a man who was unable to write his own name.

Don’t snub a boy who seems dull or stupid. Hogarth, the celebrated painter and engraver, was slow at learning, and did not develop as soon as most boys,

Preserviag Cat Flowers. Do you know that you should always pull all the leaves off the stalks of flowers before putting themin water? I mean, of course, all the leaves which would other- wise be in the water, not those above it. And another wrinkle given here is that with such flowers as lilac, for instance, i or any other hard-stocked sort of shrub, the bark should be peeled off as well as tlie leaves. The flowers liye ever so much longer if these precautions are taken. A scrap of charcoal in the water is also a great preservative.

Merely an Irishman'’s Hemorrhage, —~ There was 4 crowd on the street corner below a sky-seraper in course of erection. A painter had let his pot of green paint fall and the emerald liquid now streak ed the sidewalk gorgeously, About this 2» crowd of idlers had gathered. A new- eomer, trying to push his way to the un- |} @an magnet of attention, met a man equally eager to get out, and accosted him : “‘What’s it all about?’ ‘Nothing, much,”’ said the other; ‘‘just an Irishman had 9 bemorrhpgy.’'—Vanity Fair.

Mr. Stratton, of West Peterboro, has given notice that he will introduce in the Ontario Legislature a bill to regulate bicycles, which, among other things, will declare all bicycles to be carriages, under the regulation of municipal councils and authorize municipalities to license all suck machines provided that the moneys obtamed from the taxation are applied to improving roads and making pathways \ for persons using wheels.

CONTRASTS. I see the tall church storr’ss, They; r-ech) so fur, so few | But the eyes of my heart we Ce wereld’: great mart Where the starving people are.

I hear the church bells ringing

Their chimes on the morning etr; But my soul’s sad ear is burt t& hear

The poor man’s cry of despatr.

Thicker and thicker the churches Nearer and nearer the sky; But alack for their creeds while the poor man’s needs Grow deeper as years roll by. —Klla Wheeler Wilcox. Bear Your Own tuarden.

Every man should bear bis own burden of sorrow. When the burden comes upor him he has a righi to expect sympathy from his friends; he has a right to expect help and fellowship from those that ar near and dear to him. But one has no right to carry his gloom into others’ lives: no one has a right because he is walking in a shadow to shadow the paths of those about him. That is my objection to the wearing of mourning. Ido nct mean to the wearing of every kind of black, but tothe wearing of that form of black which says to everybody,*‘I am in grief.’’ I object to it because in its essence it is selfish, because in its essence it gives no- tice io every one, ‘‘I am in trouble’ and 80. rolis off a part of that trouble upon others’ shoulders, When sorrow comes to us let us receive into our hearts’ recesses our friernd:; let us even ask them to wate by our side while we wrestle in our garden of Gethsemane; but let us not throw the burden of our grief on other hearts.

I sce from the newspapers indications that suicide is on the increase, Iam not sure whether this is true or whether it i: only true that the newspapers are mon enterprising and we get more widespresd reports than we used to. But every sui- cide, unless he is insane, is a coward, and every temptation towards suicide is a cow ard’s temptation, for when a man faces bankruptcy or shame or ignominy of an; kind and goes out of life by his own hand: he rolls that burden off upon a wife, upon a child, upon a friend, upon a home, upoh some one else to bear for him; hi runs away and leaves the poisoned ar- ows to pierce other hearts. The suicide is a coward.

This is our duty to bear bravely, hero- ically, courageously, nobly each one his own burden.—Rev. Lyman Abbott.

There's Something tw This,

“Men will believe anything you tell them about themselves,’’ said the clever woman in New York as we sat over ow Bohemian breakfast, served on the flap o! a davenport by the aid of a gas drop stov: and sundry paper bags. ‘‘Anythin; nice?’ IT suggested. ‘‘Nice or the othe. thing. Only the better make of man i more apt to believe the other thing..’’ thought I'd try how this worked one da; since, and began on a man who know nothing whatever about art. I asked hi opinion of a painting, hastening to assur him that I should think a good deal of i: because people knew he was an authority, and that I had heard him quoted on se veral occasions. That was all true, with twist in it. He gave his opinion, and not a week after I heard him say, ‘‘ You know I'm a bit of an authority on color, and what I say generally goes."’ But for all this I don’t quite believe in what thx clever woman said about ‘‘the othe thing.”" Men would be much miore like ly to resent any information about thei failings, and to think little of their in formant. And so they should.—Lad, Gay, in Saturday night.

Near the top of a mountain spring, evidently a siphon, and the wate: rushes from it with sufficient force t carry it up the side of a very steep hill! for nearly half a mile. Reaching th crest, the water flows on to the east, and eventually finds its way into the Atlanti: ocean. Of course, it is of the same natur as a geyser, but the spectacle of a strean

The Napoleonic Fad, A peripatetic exhibitor of the phone graph in Holland seems determined to out distance all competitors as regards the ex cellence of his records. He was exhibit ing the machine in the streets of Utrech: and a number of customers were listening to selections of tunes. Suddenly the tun ceased and there was a pause. Then in x loud, clear tone was heard the one word. *‘Halt!’’ delivered in a tone bespeaking authority. ‘‘What is that?’ asked one of the listeners. ‘‘That,’’ was the reply, *‘is the voice of Napoleon Bonaparte giy- ing an order at the battle of Waterloo {’’
