It is true that political passions and socialist aspirations have been lately at the white heat point in France, and that M. Felix Faure will have to face more difficulties than his says predecessors. A writer in Harper's overthat unless a revolution should throw both him and the Chambers, he Is sure to stay in power so long as he will be able to find men willing to form cabinets to replace those thrown aside by parliament. Nevertheless, it must not be forgotten that he was elected Jan. 17 by only 430 votes, most of them given by senators, and that the chamber presided over by his defeated competitor, M. Henri Brisson, will not be to the new President. M. Faure is the representative of the opportunist party, which Itself represents the small bourgeoise, whose ancestors made the revolution of the last century, and which has governed the French republic since the resignation of MacMahon in 1879.

It may be interesting to naturalists to learn that this cat, though deaf, Is by no means dumb, and that it mews In the same tone of voice as other cats which are In posession of the faculty of hearing.

So as all o' them beasts holes up in the winter, there ain't no danger o' Squeezer runnin' ag'in any of 'em and gittin' scared to death. Then what does he do when spring comes and they begin to come out o' their holes? Why, just as soon 'as the ice goes out of our lake and the weather sets in fo bein' warm, Squeezer turns in and goes to sleep, and don't muclvof any-thielse but snooze till cold weather comes ag'in. But if there wasn't any ice Squeezer'd never survive a winter, I don't think. I'll tell you why. 44 Yon know what picker'l fishin' through the ice is, maybe? 'If you do, you'll know that sometimes you'll have to shift your quarters on the ice a dozen times or more a day, and maybe not get a fish, after all. Why do you have to do it? 'Cause picker'l runs in schools in the winter time, and just as like as not, while you're foolin' around in one place tryin' to find 'em, they'll be a mile or more away huntin' for you.
