LIFE ASSOCIATION,

Good Acivice.

In a recent speech, Mr. Gladstoue gave Mr. Ashmead-Bartlett the follow- ing piece of good advice which might be profitably studied by all young poli- ticilans :—

'

} ‘* The hon. gentleman is young, the

‘hon. gentleman takes great paius. He

ihas plenty of time to gain instruction ; he’

‘has plenty of time to uulearn aud cast joff error. Let him apply that time to ‘good purpose. Let him learn this—that if he wants really to make en impression ‘upon the world, if he wants really to give ‘aid-to his friends, or inflict disaster upon | his adversaries, the very first lesson he imust learnis to restrain his universal and sweeping propcsitions within bounds of fact and actual experience—to submit himself to be taught by the lessons of the 'world and the lessons of the day, and to

earn and know that moderation, reserve, | consideration for those with whom you i have to deal, and the endeavor to bring |your propositions into exact conformity }with the circumstances of the case, are, ‘for him aod for everybody else, the very first conditions of useful and durable success.”

To See the Land.

Special Agent for P, E. I./visir ro CANADA OF MR, A. STANLEY HILL,

M, P., FOR WEST STAFFORDSHIRE.

Mr. A. Srantey Hint, a member of, the British House of Commons, has been! in Toronto and has been interviewed b the Globe’s reporter, The present is: Mr, Hill’s first visit to Canada, and he} pronounced himself thoroughly well: pleased with what he has been enabled’ to see of the country so far as he has gone. Mr. Hillis one of that body of, English gentlemen who adhere warmly | to the idea of Imperial federation. His: idea is the institution of a Council of, State, which should be composed of re- presentatives from Great Britain and all the Colonies, this Council to be empow- ered to execute all commercial and other treaties with foreign nations, and to en- act all laws relating to the general wel- fare of the Empire. There would also be instituted a Legislative Assembly in each of the various Colonies and in Britain, similar to our Provin- cial Legislatures, to provide for the gov- ernment of local affairs. The idea is not by any meaus a new one, as every one who is acquainted with English poli- tics knows; but the scheme has been 80 generally discountenaneed that it is some- what unexpected to find a man of Mr. Hill’s apparently very practical nature adhering to it. Mr. Hill is also a strong advocate of the * fair trade” cry in Eng- land, which simply means the adoption of the retaliatory system in the tariff. He would place on the corn imports of the United States and Russia a 5s. tax, and en those articles of luxury which are imported from other highly protected countries, an impert duty of ten or twelve per cent, while imports from the Colonies would be continued on the same free trade principle as at present.

Rules for Right Living.

BY MRS. E. H. LELAND, AUTHOR OF “FARM

HOMES, IN-DOORS AND OUT-DOORS.”

1, Keep the body clean. The count- less pores of the skin are so many little drain tiles for the refuse of the system. If they become so clogged and so deadeved in their action, we must expect to become the prey of ill-health in some one of its countless forms. Let us not be afraid of a wet sponge aud five minutes exercise with a coarse towel every night or morning.

2. Devote eight hours ont of the twenty-four to sleep. If a mother is robbed of her sleep by a wakeful baby, she must take a nap sometime during the day. Even ten minutes of repose strengthens and refreshes, and does good ‘like a medicine.” Children should be allowed to sleep until they awake of their own free will.

3. Never go out to work in early morn- ing in any locality subject to damps, fogs, and miasms, with an empty stomach. If there is not time to wait for a cup of coffee, pour two-thirds of a cup of boiling water on two teaspoonfuls of cream, or a beaten egg, season 15 with salt aud pepper and drink it while ‘ict before going out. This will stimulate and comfort the stomach and aid the system in resisting a poisonous or debilitating atmosphere.

4. Avoid over-eating. To rise from the table able to eat a little more is a pro- verbially good rule for every one. There is nothing more idiotic than forcing down a few moutifuls, because they happer to re- main on one’s plate, after hunger is satis- fied, and because they may be “ wasted” if left ! It is the most serious waste to over- tex the stomach with even an ounce more tuan it can take care of.

5. Avoid foods and diinks that plainly ‘disagree’ with the system. Vigorous out-dosr workers should beware of heavy indigestible suppers. Suppers should al ways consist of light easily-digested foods —being, in the country, so soon followed by sleep, ard the stomach being as much entitled as the head to prefound rest. The moral pluck and firmn2ss to take such food

THR AMOUNT PAID FOR ART EXCOURAGE- MENT IN ENGLAND,

Writing in Good Hiurds for August, Mr. Beavingien Atkinson gives some interest- ing particulars asio the extent to which art is studiedin England. He tells us that no fewer than 146 Government schools of art are how in operation, affording syste- matic instruction to 29,191 scholars. There

alzo «exist, he says, 400 art classes with 16,000 students, besides 4,489 elementary schools wherein, under the

inspection of the Government, drawing is taught concurrently with reading, writing, and arithmetic. Altogether it would appear that uo fewer than 795,444 scholars are annually receiving in Ergiand tuitica in drawing, painting, and model- ling. The cost of all this is, of course, not snali, There are fees which are paid by the parents of the pupils, but even with those the drain upon the country’s purse is svmewhat heavy. As a matter of fact, the lust Government grant amounted to £69,- 423, which by many will doubtless be con- s.dered an extravagant sum to be devoted to such a purpose.

A Military Demonstration at Cairo.

A Cairo despatch says :—Four thousand soldiers, with thirty pieces of artillery, have surr unded Abden, the Khedive’s resid: nce. They ask for the assembling of the notables, and the dismissal of the Khedive’s Munis- ters. The leaders of the demonstration previously sent a circular to the foreign consuls, assuring them that no hostile in- tentions were entertained against Euro. peans. The troops also demanded a con- stitution and the increase of the army to 18,000 men. The British consul went to the palace with the foreign consuls and ne- gotiated with the discontented colonels.

Finally the English consul hand- ed them a decree of the Khedive

accepting their demands and appoiiting OCherif Pasha President of the Council. The troeps then cheered the Khedive and withdrew. It is thought a foreign oecupa- tion of the country will be imperaiive.

An Authentic Portrait of Columbus

A most curious discovery has just been made ia the Spanish Colonia! Office at the capital of a pertrait of Columbus, one in fact made during the life of the great dis- coverer, The pertrait is in a perfect state of preservation and the inscription is intact. It reads :—‘* Columbus Lygue Novi Orbis Repertor.” The portrait represents Col- umbus at about forty years of age, without any wrinkles on his broad forehead, with dark, thick hair, a brilliant eye, and a beak A first copy, which has been made, has been offered to the Duke of Veragna, a lineal descendant of Columbus. Sub- Secretary Correa has ordered another copy to be placed in the Colenial Office. The size of the portrait is half a metre leng by forty-two centimetres wide. It is supposed to be by an artist of the end of the fifteenth century.

The New English Grain Port.

A new grain port is soon to be opened up in England by the erection at Fleetwood, in Lancashire, ef a mammoth grain elevator of over a million bushels capacity. The building is rapidly proceeding. It is to be fitted with all the mest recent appliances and improvements for elevating grain di- rect from ships, including machinery for elevating, weighing, cleaning and storing grain in deep bins, on the American sys- tem. Hieetweod connects by railway with all parts of England, andthe enterprise, which is the firstin England on such a complete scale, is likely to attract a con siderable share cf the grain trade to [ leet- wood harbor end docks. The machinery for this mammoth elevator includes 500 horse-power Corliss engines and steel boil- ers.

Postmaster-General James, of the United States, appears to be maintaining his re- putation as a thorough-going reformer of the civil service. He is eaid to have in- troduced in his department, with excellent effect, a system of competitive examinations for appointments and promotions.

To illustrate the manner in which steam power for threshing is superseding the old here power system, thet. Thomas Times makes the statemeat that Haggert & Cochrane of that city have sold 160 portable engines during the present season.
