As Comptroller General of the British Natioual Debt—an office which he has held since 1873 and which he only resigned last month, Sir Rivers has had charge of funds amounting to the stupendous total of between two hundred and thirty to two

hundred and forty millions of pounds sterling. The income of this vast sum

amounts to some fifteen millions of pounds sterling, allof which it was part of the duties of his office to invest. It will be re- alized, therefore, that it is not the amount of the interests which have been confided to his care which troubles him.

In appearance Sir Rivers is very much like the Marquis of Dufferin, both in form and feature. He is thin and tall, and might be a man of some fifty-five years of age. His hair has not yet turned, although his whiskers and moustache are quite grizzled. He has a most amiable, indeed a Winning face, with a decidedly humor- ous twinkle of the eyes, but, all the same, there are certain omiuous lines about the mouth which would suggest that this same kind face can be very hard and firm

Some years ago four criminals,condemn- ed in Russia to die, were taken to a house and shown several beds, in which they were told a number of cholera patients had died. As a matter of fact, the beds were new, hever having been sleptin. The criminals were informed that they would be set at liberty if they would undergo the ordeal of sleeping several nignts in the beds. From the prisoner’s point of view it was a possible, though desperate, chance toescape. They one and all decided to take the ehances, At the end of the time prescribed, two were uninjured and went free; but the others developed all the symp- toms and died of Asiatic cholera.

Sir Rivers was brought upin that nur- sery of good breeding and repose of man- ner, namely, the Treasury Department of the government, and he shows it in every move, His manner is full of subdued bonhomie, with a distinct touch of a Ches terfieldian politeness, and his method of speech is slightly of the Parliamentary order, with the halting “er” of the public speaker, and his voice is very clear and penctrating.

Sir Rivers is aboye all things adiplomat, and shows it in a thousand different ways. Whether speaking of men or places, he always conveys the idea that he knows a great deal more of the subject than he is saying, aud this gives him a suggestion of reserved power, with a suspicion of the iron hand in the velvet glove. As regards his dress, Sir Rivers is a bit of a dandy,but only to the extent that after leaving him no one could recall one prominent feature of his attire.

lt is, of course, with Egypt that the name of Sir Charles Rivers Wilson must be always associated. One circumstance stands out in this connection which speaks for itself. When he first went out to Egypt. in 1876. as the representative of the British government, the country was prac- tically bankrupt, and the seven per cent. unified bounds were quoted at 23. To-day, after various conversions, these same

unified bonds. the interest on which f) has been scaled down in the |! meantime to four per cent., stand

at about 108. To enter into the history of

his Egyptian career would be impossible fi but the jf)

within the limits of this article, document which has passed into history is the report of the Commission d’Enquete, of which he was president, in succession to the late Ferdinand de Lesseps, which had for a result the practical recovery of 450,- 000 acres of the most fertile land in Egypt, which had been “‘annexed” by Ismail Pacha, and the placing of the finances and taxation on a basis of prosperity of which the wretched aud downtrodden fellaheen had never dreamed or sup;osed possible.

Another historical episode in Sir Riyers’ Egyptian career was when he threatened to adjourn the conference and withdraw. lie went to the palace to make his adieux to the Khedive, who, after mumbling out an incoherent speech, placed in his hands adocument which meant the complete surrender of his authority, accepting a constitutional government and placing himself entirely in the hands of England, France and Italy. Not the least of Sir Rivers’ triuniph in this connection is the fact that it was his personal influence which induced the Rethschilds to float a loan of eight and a half millions sterling on the security of the lands which he had compelled Ismail to disgorge. In leaving the Egyptian sketch of the career of this great financier, itshould be recorded that he still is one of the three English govern- ment directors of the Suez Canai

On the subject of Ferdinand de Lesseps Sir Rivers is very eloquent. He had been a colleague of “the great Frenchman” and has uothing but admiration for him. He claims that De Lesseps should not be judged by the standard of ordinary men, aud pays high tribute to his generous nature, broad views and enormous mental and physicial activity. The manner in which he approached England when Lord Palmerston was Prime Minister—the terest enemy of his great scheme—after he had won his fight, commends him to the liveliest recognition. He knew that once cut the best and largest customers the canal would have—they number. about eighty per cent of the whole—would be Englishmen, and so he approached them in the most liberal spirit and made them con- cessions which earned for him the odium of his fellow countrymen to an almost malignant extent.

“When I think,” says Sir Rivers, ‘‘that this man, who was no engineer, no financ- ier and an unsuccessful diplomatist, achieved a scheme which beat the great Napoleon himself, I am lost in admir- ation.”

Pe

Disase of Slate.

The reasons assigned by the school com- mictee for the discontinuance of slates, slate pencils and sponges in the public schools and the substitution of paper, lead pencils and rubber erasers in their places are as follows:

1. Alight gray mark upon a slightly darker grey surface is more or less indis- sinet and trying to the eyesight.

2. The resistance of the hard pencil upon the hard slate is trying to the muscles, and the resistance to which the muscles are thus trained must be overcome when beginning to write with pencilor pen upon paper.

3. The use of slates, slate pencils and sponges is a very uncleanly custom and leads to and establishes very uncleanly habi : i a ;

How I account for my business Wscing successful last year is that J did my best to satisfy my cus somers, both in PRICES and WORKMANSHIP. Believing, as I do, that I can do work CHEAP- ER and give as SATISFACTORY A JOB as any firm in the city, naturally I am looking for an 1n- crease in business, and will try and give the public good, honest work, lowest prices aud entire satisfaction. If I have not done work for you before, give me a trial order for BLANK BOOKS, JOB PRINT- ING, ete.

of a practical joke at the hands of the students. They met him one after an- other, and each successively inguired after his health, saying that he looked ill. He tvok to his bed, a physician was called and for days the professor imagined he was ill.

Remarkable Trained Animals.

The most remarkable of animal trainers is, without doubt, Prof. Bonnetti, whose troupe of educated foxes, yeese, ducks, fowls, ravens and dogs is marvellous. His foxes jump over hurdies and through hoops, they jump vver ducks and fowls,

they feed with these birds, whom it is |

their nature to feed on, and they ran about the arena with foxhounds, whom they usually runaway from. When the children see the professor's beautiful cat walk a bamboo bar, on which are eighteen lovely white mice, they cry “Did you ever?” aud clap their hands in delight.

Of the trained animals now in London, however, the Siberian bears of M. W. Per- m:.ne attract the most attention.” To see them standing on a swing and “talking” to their master is really killing fun. The way they will sit down at a table and drink stout out of bottles is an edifying sight for any total abstainer to see. Perhaps the climax of comicality is reached when one of these unwieldly creatures hus a lady’s straw hat tied to around the stage on M. Permane’s arm, trying hard to kiss him all the time, and waddling about with all the gracefulness of any mature maiden lady of unceriain age among my acquaintances. That bear will shake hands with M. Permane like a thoroughly good fellow, but if you were to try to shake hands with him you would find his heartiness a little trying.—Strand Magazine.

Gt Keep the Chin In to be Healthy.

“If my daughter were going to Europe to spend a year without her family,” said a wise mother the other day, “and I were to give her a brief rule asa guide to health, it would be this, keep yourchin in.” This seemed unintelligible until she elaborated it and showed the effects of such an ob- servance. She said: “To keep the chin in means to keep it well drawn back horiz- ontally. That causes what physical cul- turists call a lifted chest ora live chest. A lifted chest insures deep and full breath- ing, and hence pure blood and perfect cir- culation, Perfect circulation is the great- est safeguard against contagion, and it prevents chilliness, the forerunner of colds. A lifted chest also throws the whole body into a graceful poise. The abdomen recedes, the thumbs fall into place by the side, the weight of the body falls upon the ball of the foot instead of the heel, and the shoulder blades flatten. These effects are produced when standing or walking. There are also effects in sit- ting. A lifted chest then insures a straight backbone with the end of spine against the back of chair, instead of a curved spine, which many women assume while sitting. Vhe habit of retaining a lifted chest is is easily formed, provided the clothing is reasonably loose.’’—Prairie Farmer.

' A Dead-Living Juryman,

A friend cf mine, says a writer in Lon- don Answers, once paid an official £10 never to be called asa juryman. He was told all he had todo was not to turn up, even if he were called, in future.

When the day came for his attendance at the court, my friend (John Jones, I will call him) could not resist the temptation of seeing how his money had been invest- ed, and repaired to the court.

He described the sensation of hearing “John Jones” called out as rather pecu- liar. It was called out a second time, and he could hardly resist answering to his name. When it was called ont athird time he felt quite eerie, and much more so at what took place in consequence.

A person in deep mourning, and with a voice broken with emotion, exclaimed:

“John Jones is dead. my lord.”

And his lordship, with a little reflected melanchuly in his tone, observed:

“Poor fellow! Scratch his name out,”

Prof. Froude’slroperty The late Prof. Froude has “cut up” bet- terthan any historian since Macaulay, The total value of his property, which, I am told, is about £60,006, isin marked contrast to the estate of his ancient enemy, Prof. Freeman, which only figured out at £5,041. There wouid seem to be something in a picturesque style and a robust literary conscience after all. Mr. Froude got into hot water through some of the highly flavored. Carlyle correspondence which he published, but the fact that he has ordered in his will that a holocaust should be made of the remaining Carlyle lettersand manuscripts seems to indicate that he could have startled the world still more had he chosen.—Lonion Figaro. ———»s-—__—
