In both county and borough contests the Tory expenses were considerably in excess of those of the Liberals. In the English and Welsh counties the respective totals were £455,- 015 and £303,735; in the boroughs, £346,010 and £335,690.

In Ireland the Toriesspent c ose on £6,000 in excess of the Liberals.

In reference to poly am the report stated that the pretend rig t of one man to more than one wife was an attempt to rob some other man of any, and involved the equal right of a woman to more than one husband. By the laws of Christian nations polygamy was held as a high crime against society and punishable by a heavy penalty. Utah had, been and was now in an attitude of defiance against the nation.

In New England the proportion of divorces was one to eleven marriages. The fre- quency with which divorces were obtained and the laxity of popular sentiment on the subject were shocking.

To be sure, there are diversities of mothers-in-law ; and it does he pen some- times that a worthy and we conducted man finds himself subjected to a mother- in-law who is a real afiliotion. All the saints have been made perfect through suffering. The thorn in the flesh some- times points the way to celestial joys. A terrific mother-in-law may be good for 1discipline. She should be regarded very much as an ascetic hair-cloth shirt. But a good mother.in~law is a very different per- son. She is really a well-spring of pleasure to a properly conducted husband. She is assiduous in takingoare of the baby. and the serviceableness of her knowledge con- cerning the most effective methods of carrying the infant through critical periods. the efficiency with which she disgenses paregoric. measures out ipecao. an com~ pounds plasters, fills the minds of just men Evilth sentiments of admiration and thank- u uses. Why do married men. as a race, dislike their mothers-in-law? The mother-in-law is not responsible for her positionâ€"proba- ‘bly does not admire it. Yet she has been the subject of countless stories. myriade of offensive jests and quantities of sarcastic rhymes. Into all of these has entered an element of bitterness which does not appear in the gibes that are hurled at the widow and spinster. Malice is the inspiration of the assault upon the motherdn-law. Per- haps it is savagery born of a sense of detected guiltâ€"which has been hidden from the too-confiding wife, but detected promptly by the penetrating eye of the mother-in-law. She is not blinded by love for the man, and to perfect olearness of vision she adds an experience which is as} usefulas second-sight in enabling her to see to "the bottom of things. ‘ This letter is accompanied by one from W.

About a couple of miles outside Beyrout there are some pine woods, with a few hostelries dotted about. which form the favorite promenade of the citizens of Bey- rout on holiday afternoons.

The coming rival of Apollinaris and possibly of champagne is “ Zoedone." One might think this new beverage, which is now having a good sale in London. was an affirmative sort of “ Sozodont," but it is not. Mr. Jennings describes it as a highly superior and agreeable form of ginger ale, suchas that which is or usedtobe imported so largely from Belfast for consumption in the United States. Zoedone itself will no doubt be cut out in time by a beverage still more tempting to the palate. Some people say they cannot tell it from champagne, but this is doubtless because they have‘ never tasted champagne. except that variety of it which is made from the homely gooseberry and the domestic pie- plant. A few weeks ago a report appeared in the newspapers of a man being sum- moned before the magistrate for selling champagne without a license. Two police- men went into his shop, ordered a bottle of champagne, drank it and straightway in- formed against him. The champ e, they admitted. was most excellent. be case seemed to be proved. and the magistrates were about to inflict the usual fine when ‘ the defendant called witnesses to prove that the liquor which he had really sold to the policemen was zoedone.
