Whether his humility was sincere or not, he certainly laid aside his dignity of station whenever he could also lay aside his duties as ruler of the holy Roman empire. In Au Couchant de la Monarchie the Marquis de Segur tells of one occasion when the emperor went to France to j visit his sister. Queen Marie Antoinette. The Parisians, accustomed to the luxury and magnificence ut the court of Versailles, were astonished at the extreme simplicity that Joseph II affected. He preferred not to be recognized as emperor at all, and traveled, with one or two gentlemen, or alone, under an assumed name. Once his quick wit alone preserved his incognito. He had stopped for the night at an inn, and in the morning was shaving before a small glass, while the land1 ?1 kaIsI q hfluin nf water 1UI u a uau^iuci uciu ? .. for him. Something about the man or his belongings had roused the girl's curiosity and suspicion, for she presently asked, in a respectful voice: "Are you not connected with the court or in the service of the emperor?" Joseph, who saw what her questions might lead up to, replied quickly: "Why, certainly, my dear girl. How did you guess? I shave him." His ready answer, which did not pass the bounds of truth, lulled the girl's suspicions completely. Watte Not, Want Not.?Gerald had just bought a little car and in it he was taking the girl of his heart for a spin between tea and supper. Proud of being able to turn a corner without seriously damaging the hedges, he was letting the car out a bit. Up hill and down dale they tore at a gallant pace. "Oh Gerald, isn't it 1-o-vely" chanted Hypatia, as they topped a mighty hill and beheld the country suread out far below them. But she got no answer, for they were already dashing downwards like the stick of a rocket. Gerald with a moist forehead and bulging eyes, shouted in her ear: "The brakes have give way!" "Oh, Gerald how awful!" shrieked the poor girl, beginning to cry. "Can't you stop it? Oh. Gerald dear, I'd give all the money in the world to get out!" Don't part with a ha'penny!" gasped Gerald, who was of Scottish decent. "We'll both get out for nothing when the car hits that gate down here!"?Philadelphia Public Ledger. More in His Flock.?There was a certain bishop who had a pleasant habit of chatting with anybody he might meet during his country walks. One day he came across a lad who was looking after some pigs by the road side, and the bishop pausing to ask him what he was doing, that being his usual opening to conversation. "Moindin' swoine." the lad replied stolidly. The bishop nodded his head thoughtfully. "Ah, is that so?" he commented "And how much do you earn a week?" "Two shillin's" was the reply. "Only two shillings? remarked the bishop. Then he continued, pleasantly, "I, too, am a shepherd, but I get more than two shillings." The lad looked at him suspiciously for a minute, then he said, slowly: "Mebbe you get more swoine not me to moind."?Philadelphia Ledger. He Knew She'd Guess It.?For five years John Henry had been keeping company with Hannah May, but not once in all that time had he whistled any tune that sounded like a wedding march. Naturally Hannah May was beginning to feel a trifle concerned. One evening, however, John Henry came to the house looking as if he might propose, and a great hope filled the heart of the fairy one. Hope developed into certainty when the young man drew a small jeweler's box from his vest pocket. "Hannah, dear," began John Henry, In a gentle voice, "1 have brought you a little present, but I'm afraid it won't fit your finger. Will you try it on?" "Oh. John!" ecstatically cried the dear one, "do you really mean to say that you have brought me?" "Yes." was the hope killing rejoinder of John as he handed over the box, "a thimble. I knew you would guess it the first time. Old Stuff.?A few days ago we ran across the ghost of old Doc Homer, the well-known (among five or six) sport historian of ancient Greece. "Say," he said in well modulated ringwarder accents, "can you slip me a coupon to this next world series?" "Sure," we answered, remembering that the fellow once had some talent, even if we never cared a lot for his stuff. "Who," asked the ancient bard, "will probably work the opening game?" "It will probably be Matty against Plank," we replied. "Then never mind the ticket," he came back with a poorly suppressed yawn. "I saw enough of those two guys in a world series when I was sporting editor of the Grecian Bugle 4,000 years ago. I'll drop around about I960 when there's some new stuff on the programme." Worse to Come.?The regular trombone player of a Scottish orchestra was laid up with a cold, and the conductor reluctantly accepted the services of a brass band amateur. Ho was a little doubtful, however, sis to the suitability of his substitute. After the first performance the new player asked the conductor how he had done. The conductor replied that he hsid done pretty fairly, but that perhaps he would do better next night.

The fortifications of Paris and their ability to resist a siege, is receiving the close attention of military observers, now that Paris is the announced objective of the German forces, and the French.ministry of war is rapidly strengthening the city's defences. The general character of the city's detailed defences are well known to military experts, who recognize them as among the strongest fortifications in the world. The fortifications consist of three distinct circles sweeping around the ritv?first, the solid wall of masonry 5 18 feet high extending for 22 miles ( around the old sections of Paris; sec- I ond, the system of 17 detached forts ' arranged at intervals, two miles be- } yond the wall, and making a circuit of < the city 34 miles long, and, third, an 1 outer girdle of forts 75 miles long. * Each of these circles of masonry and steel is a complete defense in it- 1 self.

They sustained the German siege of -a-LJ-=-^?=-*? ? 1 * ^ V^oi?n jlrwn I0<u-ii ami intr uuin iu? 10 nu?v w>*>wv been greatly strengthened. The third line of forts are of modern construction with the latest types of batteries and heavy guns. The inner wall about Paris surrounds the best known and most important sections of the city. Outside of the wall a circle of suburbs extends for many miles, among which are dotted the forts of the second and third line of defenses, protecting them and the approaches to the capital. The wall contains 93 bastions and 67 gates. The second line of forts includes the famous fortress of Mont Varerain, which was the center of attack in the German siege of 1870. South of the city is the row of forts at Ivry, Bictre, Mont Rouge, Venves and Issy. North and east of the city are three great i forts around St. Denis, and two others at Fort Aubervilliers and Fort Charenton. commanding the approach of the great wood of Bondy. The outer circle of forts, of the most modern type, have from 24 to 60 heavy guns and 600 to 1,200 men each. In all the three lines of defense require 170,000 men to operate them, not counting troops assembled within the city. According i to military experts, it would require a I force of 500,000 men to invest these | defenses. General von Moltke, field marshal' of the German forces at the time of' the siege of Paris in 1870-71. states in a report on that siege that the French artillery armament consisted of more than 2,627 pieces, including 200 of the largest calibre of naval ordnance. There were 500 rounds for each gun and a reserve of 3,000,000 kilograms of powder. Von Moltke points out that the bombardment of a fortified place in the heart of an enemy's country is ditficult, if not impossible, until tne invaaer is master ui me iau?u.?o or waterways by which heavy siege artillery can be brought up. He explains the failure to bombard Paris at the outset of the former siege by saying it would have required 300 heavy guns with 500 rounds for each gun. The movement forward of these heavy guns would have required 45.000 fourwheeled wagons and 10,000 horses, which were not available. At a later stage the Germans brought up their big siege guns, attacking the enciente and ports and dropping 300 to 400 15-centimeter shells daily into the heart of the city. Notwithstanding the fury of the German attack, Paris withstood the siege for 132 days. Since then the entirely new and outer third line of defense has been erected and military experts say the fortifications as a whole are far more formidable than those which resisted the former siege.

Britain uses the Lee-Enfield; France uses the Lebel and Austria uses the Nlannlicher. While Germany, Russia ind Belgium use the Mauser, the rifles of these three armies are very lifferent, and it is simply the basicprinciple of the Mauser that governs its name. Many changes have been made with rifles in recent years and now these magazine guns can shoot and kill at 2,000 yards and the bullets will carry much further than that distance. Generally the far sights on these rilles are set at about 2,000 yards, but on the German Mauser they are set for 2,882 fards.

Since 1906 it has been gradually replaced by a shorter wea pon, and now the long Lee-Entteiu is used by the soldiers of the second line of defense. That rifle weighs nine pounds four ounces, and with the bayonet attached it weighs 10 pounds 3 1-2 ounces. With the bayonet attached the Austrian gun is the lightest, weighing a quarter of an ounce less than nine pounds, and the French soldier again has to carry the heaviest, his piece with bayonet weighing 10 pounds 11-2 ounces. These rifles all have magazines. The French is a tube through which the cartridges pass to the shooting chamber, and the others have a box or a charge fltted to the gun just under the stock and in front of the trigger guard. This charge on the Mauser and the Mannlicher holds Ave cartridges, and with one shot in the barrel the soldier has six bullets ready for use to be discharged as fast as he can pull the trigger. The French carry in the tube eight cartridges and the British in their magazines carry ten cartrifl The British use the shortest ritle. It measures three feet S.5 inches and is live inches shorter than the rifle used until after the Boer war, which measured four feet 1.4 inches. The Austrian ritle is next, four feet two inches, and then comes the Belgian, four feet 2.25 inches; the Russian, four feet 3.8 inches, and the French, four feet 3.12 inches. The difference in length between the short British and the French arm is a fraction over seven inches and the French ritle is an inch and three-quarters longer than the German. With the bayonet attached the French rille measures a fraction under six feet, or to be exact, five feet 11.84 inches. This may give them an advantage in close fighting. The German ritle with bayonet attached measures live feet 9.75 inches, or a fraction over two inches shorter than the French weapon. The Russian arm mpsisiirps five feet nine inches, the British five feet 1.7 inches, the Belgian four feet 11.75 inches and the Austrian four feet 11.5 inches. This shows that the French bayonet is the longest. being 20.72 inches, th 20.61 inches the British and Russian 17.2 inches, the Belgian 0.5 inches and the Austrian the shortest, 0.2 inches. The Germans were the lirst to use the pointed or Spltzer bullet as it is called. This was in 1005, and France followed the German example at once. Its advantage is that it tlattens the trajectory and increases consequently the danger space. The German cartridge measures 3.22 Inches with the round bullet and 3.13 inches with the pointed bullet and the weights are 413 and 360.0 grains respectively, fhe British use a round bullet and the cartridge measures 3.05 inches and reigns 4 1grains, ine di'ibiun <in*ridge measures 3.0f?5 inches and EFUGEES FLEEING FRO Wsji?

In the British cartridge there is 15.5 grains of cordite; in the Belgian and Austrian 19.7 grains of nitroglycerine.

The greatest is that of the German ritle with the pointed bullet, which is 2,882 feet a second, and with a round bullet 2,093 feet a second. The French rille has a muzzle velocity of 2,380 feet a second with the pointed bullet and 2,073 feet a second with a round bullet. The muzzle velocity of the British rille is 2,069, of the Belgiam and Austrian rilles 2,034 and the Russian 1,985 feet a second.? Exchange.

ANALYSIS OF MILITARISM It is a System that Does not Commend Itself to Common Sense. A picture for which we will have to wait for history to furnish the key is drawn by Dr. Charles E. Jefferson, dealing with the spectacle of this century's militaristic display. "Delusion," he calls It, for the article was written before the war clouds rose above the Servian horizon. Now the significance of everything is changed, but the details that make up the picture still have their salience. He notes in the role of the historian of the future, the preparations made for war ever since the century began, especially among the nations which confessed allegiance to the Prince of Peace. He seer that these "preparations were carried forward with tremendous energy and enthusiasm, and that the air was filled with prophetic vices picturing national calamities and predicting bloody and world embracing conflicts." Alongside this fact the historian of the future will find another fact no less conspicuous and universal, that everybody of importance in the early years of the twentieth century was an ardent champion of peace. In the Christian Century, Dr. Jefferson con tinues: "He will find incontestable evidence that the king of England was one of the truest friends of peace who ever sat on the English throne, that the German emperor proclaimed repeatedly that the cause of peace was ever dear to his heart, that the president of the United States was so effective a peacemaker that he won a prize for ending a mighty war, that the czar of Russia was so zealous in his devotion to peace that he called the nations to meet in solemn council to consider measures for ushering in an era of universal amity and good will, and that the president of France, the king of Italy, and the mikado of Japan were not a whit behind their royal brethren in offering sacrifices on the altar of the Goddess of Peace. A crowd of royal peacemakers in words surcharged with thoughts and threats, of war, a band of lovers strolling down an avenue which they themselves had lined with lyddite shells and twelve inch guns, this will cause our historian to rub his eyes. His bewilderment, however, will reach the climax when he discovers that it was after the establishment of an international court that all nations voted to increase their armaments. Everybody conceded that it was better to settle international disputes by reason rather than by forces, but as soon as the legal machinery was created by means of which the swords could be dispensed with, there was a fresh fury to perfect at once all the Instruments of destruction. After each new peace conference there was a fresh cry for more guns. Our historian will read with gladness the records of The Hague conference, and of the laying of the foundation of a periodic Con[ gress of Nations, and of a permanent high court. He will note the neutralisation nf Switzerland. Belerium and Norway; the compact entered Into by the countries bordering on the North sea, to respect one another's territorial rights forever; the agreement of the same sort solemnly ratified by all the countries bordering on the Baltic; the signing of more than sixty arbitration treaties, twelve of these by the senate of the United States; the creation of an International Bureau of American Republics, embracing twenty-one nations; the establishment of a Central American High Court; the elaboration and perfection of legal instruments looking toward the parliament of man, the federation of the world. He will also note that while these splendid achievements of the peace spirit were finding habitation and a name, the nations were thrilled as never before by dismal forebodings and the world was darkened by whispers of death and destruction. While the Palace of Peace at The Hague was being built, nations hailed the air-ship as a glorious Invention, because of the service it could render to the cause of war. This unprecedented growth of peace sentiment, accompanied by a constant increase of jealousy and suspicion, of fear and panic, among the rtii#tr\no '?f t Un oq rt h t?* 51 1 unt nnr hiu. torian to work to ascertain the meaning of this strange phenomenon, the most singular perhaps to be met with in the entire history of the world. Peace was seen to be the one supreme blessing of the world, but to preserve the peace it was necessary to prepare for war. This lay at the centre of the policy of the twentieth century. Xo guns were asked to kill men with?guns were mounted as safeguards of peace. Xo battleships were launched to tight with?they were preservers of peace. Collossal armies and gigantic navies were exhibited as a nation's ornaments?beautiful tokens of its love of peace. And following thus the Angel of Peace, the nations increased their armaments until they spent upon them over $2,000, 000 every year, and had amassed national debts aggregating $35,000,000,000. The expenditure crushed the poorest of the nations and crippled the richest of them, but the burden was gladly borne, because it was a sacritice for the cause of peace. Tt was pathetic and thrilling testimony of the human's heart's hatred of war and longing for peace, when the nations became willing to bankrupt themselves in the effort to keep from lighting. The militarist is comic in his seriousness. He says that if you want to keep the peace you must prepare for war. and yet he knows that where men prepare for war by carrying bowie-knives, pence is a thing unheard of. and that where every man is armed with a revolver the list of homicides is longest.?Literary Digest.
