THE RULERS OF EUROPE.
A List of the Living Emperors, King's
and Presidents.
New York Run.
Queen Victoria now holds a place
among the oldest sovereigns of Europe.
In May of next year she will be seven
ty years of age. She has been on the
throne for half a century. She enjoys
good health, and bids fair to live and
reign for many years yet. If she at
tains the age of her grandfather,
George III., she will wield the scepter
(barring accidents) up the year 1901. If
at that time her son, the Prince of
Wales, becomes King, he will have
reached the ripe age of sixty years, and
his tendency to baldness will, doubtless,
have become more marked than it is
now.
The new German Emperor Freder
ick is now fifty-seven years of age, and
the Empress, the daughter of Queen
Victoria, is forty-eight. Judging from
photographs he docs not closely resem
ble his departed father in the face, but
she looks very much like her mother.
If Frederick should live to be as old
as his father, and perhaps he may, he
will wear his crown (barring accidents)
up to the year 1822. Ilis ailments dim
his prospects, but the Scotch I)r. Mack-
enzie may banish his ailments,
if The King of Belgium, Leopold II.,
'f is fifty-three years old, and if he should
} reign till he reaches the age at which
his father died he will be King up to
H 1910. He has been on the throne nearly
$1 twenty-three years.
The Emperor of Austria, Francis
| Joseph, is fifty-eight years old, and he
M has worn the imperial crown for forty
[§’ years. His predecessor was his uncle,
f| who abdicated the throne in liis favor
11 when but fifty years old, because he
was tired of the turmoil and trouble.
Francis Joseph is a polished scholar, a
linguist, an equestrain, an admirer of
military pomp, and a charmer. Ho is
healthy, and bids fair to reign for a
long time yet (barring accidents.)
The King of Italy, Humberto I., is
forty-four years old, and lias worn the
crown since the death of his father, ten
years ago. Ho is but tlie second of the
Kings of United Italy, and his throne
is in the eternal city of Home.
The Emperor of Russia, Alexander
HI., is forty-three years old, and;mount~
ed the throne after the murder of liis
father, seven years ago.
The King of Denmark, Christian IX.,
is seventy years of age, or a year older
than Queen Victoria, and is the second
.oldest monarch in Europe. He has
wielded the sceptre for a quarter of a
century, or just half as long as the
; British Queen. One of his daughters is
the wife of the Russian Czar; another
H of them is the wife of the heir appar
ent to the British crown, and his sec
ond son is the King of Greece.
The King of Sweden and Norway,
Oscar II., is in his sixtieth j'ear, and
f I has reigned for sixteen years. lie has
i\ X favored some reforms.
The King of Portugal, Louis I., istif-
| ty years old, and is a man of enterprise
II jy gild progress. He has been twenty-
seven years a King.
■' The power and authority of the King
• of Spain, Alfonso XIII., who is not yet
*two years old, is limited by the regen
cy of his mamma. He never saw his roy-
fjfcl sire.
The King of Greece, or King of the
ellenes, Georgios I., is forty-three
years of age, and has been King for a
[uarter of a century, or since lie was
igliteen; at which age he was elected to
lie Hellenic throne
comber last. lie is a graduate of the
Polytechnic School in Paris, and held
various offices before his election as j
President. There are over 38,000,000^
people in the French republic.
In the republic of Switzerland the i
highest official of the goverment is the ;
President of the Federal Council, who is
elected by the Federal Assembly, bolds j
ollice for the term of one year, and en
joys a salary of §3,000 per annum. The
President for the present year is Mr.
W. F. Ilertenstein. A President is not
eligible to re-election until a year after
the end of liis term of office.
The people of the Kingdoms and
Empires of Europe, besides sovereigns
with their families and courts, have the
privilege of upholding a prodigious sys
tem of aristocracy. It is well for us
that our fathers broke the royal power

The Great American Desert.
Overland.
On maps published ten years or more
ago the words “Great American Desert”
will be found printed across the indefi
nite area lying west of Great Salt Lake.
As exploration has advanced this desert
has contracted its imaginary bounda
ries until now it is about 50 by 100
miles in extent. This is a barren waste
and fulfills all our expectations of what
a true desert should be. Although but
a fraction of the desert area represented
in the geographies of our youth it is yet
of quite respectable dimensions, as any
one will admit who lias traversed its
dreary expanse. On some of the trails
crossing it the distance “between
drinks,” or, more accurately, between
springs, is 50 miles.
A desert is generally considered as a
barren waste of sand—probably on ac
count of our familiarity’ with descrip
tions of the sandy deserts of Egypt-
The American deserts, however, are
fiat mud plains, the beds of ancient
lakes, and are but seldom covered with
drifting sand. During the dry season,
when not a drop of rain falls on their
surfaces for four, five or even six
ligious history,—ecclesia in ecclesia,—a
church growing within a church that
had lost the power to satisfy the aspir
ations of the human spirit. About 1091,
a dozen 3’ears after their beginning,
some of these associations came under
the intluence of the reformatory im
pulse set a-going by the revolution of
1088; and by this means losing their
merely pietistic character, they under
took to co-operate for the suppression of
the prevalent vices of the time. Three
or four years later the hidden leaven of
the societi**s began to make itself felt as
a force to be reckoned with, and Queen
Mary and Archbishop Tilloston
thought it worth while to lend their
approval to this new movement, which
had grown while sovereign and prelates
slumbered and slept. By lTul there
were twenty allied societies l'or the re
formation of manners in the British
Islands, besides forty ‘devout societies’
of the original kind.
“The most conspicuous outgrowth of
the devout societies was the Methodist
movement of the eighteenth century,
though I do not know that the connec
tion has ever before been pointed out.
The so-called Holy Club of Oxford,
whence issued the Wesleys and Whit
field, appears to have been merely one
of the religious societies which had al
ready flourished for fifty years, and
some of which were in existence thirty
yeais later. From this same familiar
model Wesley doubtless borrowed the
outlines of tiie plan that resulted in
the more highly organized Methodist
society out of which in lime have come
the great Methodist bodies.”

such times they bear a striking resem
blance to some of the old Roman pave
ments made of small blocks of cream-
colored marble.
When in this condition one may ride
over them without leaving more than a
faint impression of the horse’s hoofs on
their smooth, glossy surfaces. In the'
stillness of night—and no one can ap
preciate the stillness of a desert until
he has slept alone with only the bound
less plain about him—the hoof-beats of
a galloping horse ring out as on the
pavements of a city. As the summer’s
sun dries the desert mud, the salts that
the waters bring to the surface in solu
tion are left behind and gradually accu
mulate until they are several inches
thick and make the deserts appear as if
covered with snow. This illusion is es
pecially marked when one traverses
the deserts by moonlight.
The varying condition of the desert’s
surface, owing to changes in the weath
er, is sometimes a matter of grave im
portance to the traveler, as may be il
lustrated by the following incident:
The writer was once crossing the
Sevier desert, Utah, with a pack train,
in April, after a few weeks of cloudless
weather, during which the desert sur
face had become sufficiently hard to be
traversed with ease. When midwa3'
across the plain a sudden storm of snow
and rain swept down from the neigh
boring mountains and in a few moments
changed the hard surface on which we
were riding to a sea of plastic mud, into
which our animals sank deep at every
step. The desert became almost im
passable even for men on foot, and had
the storm been of much duration our
Mutton Suet as a Remedy.
It is ver>’ vexing and annoying, in
deed, to have one’s lips break out with
cold sores, but, like the measles, it is
far better to strike out than to strike in.
A drop of warm mutton suet applied to
the sore at night, just before retiring,
will soon cause them to disappear.
This is also an excellent remedy for
parched lips and chapped hands. It
should be applied at night in the liquid
state and be well rubbed and heated in
before a brisk fire, which often causes
a smarting sensation, but the roughest
hands,by this treatment,, will soften and
be restored to their natural condition
by one application. If every one could
but know the healing properties of so
simple a thing as a little mutton suet
no housekeeper would ever be wit hout
it. For cuts and bruises it is almost in
dispensable, and where there are chil
dren there are always plenty of cuts
and bruises. Many a deep gash that
would have frightened most women
into sending for a physician has been
healed with no other remedies than a
little mutton suet and plenty of castila
soap. A wound should alwa3’s be kept
clean and the bandages changed every
day or every other da3 r . A drenching
of warm soap suds from the purest
soap that can be obtained is not only
cleansing but healing; then cover the
surface of the wound with a bit of old
white muslin dipped into melted mut
ton suet. Renew the drenching and
the suet every time the bandages are
changed and you will be astonished to
see how rapidly the ugliest wound will
heal.
condition would have been critical.
A New Origin Attributed to Meth
odism.
The following is from Dr. Eggleston’s
illustrated historical paper in the May
Century: “About 1679 there spraug
up in England what were known as the
‘religious societies,’ and though a great
part of the religious history of England
and her colonies in the eighteenth cen
tury lay in embr3*o in that movement,
we cannot tell the name of its originator
or the source of his inspirations. It is
possible that some stray seed from
Spener’s pietistic meetings in Germany
had been wafted across the Channel,
but it is more probable that the English
societies were indigenous. The mem
bers of these obscure associations stir
red up one another to devotion, and
resorted to the communion of parish
churches in a body. It was the pheno
menon so often seen in tlie world’s re-
