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 in the United States and North Ameri ca. 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.” R.

At 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.
