The Egg Dance in India.

A much more pleasing performance,
and one which might perhaps better
have been mentioned in connection with
the exploits of the jugglers, is the - egg
dance" This is not, as one might ex-
pect from the name given it, dance
upon these fragile objects. 1t is eXecut-
ed in this wise: The dancer, dressed in
corsage and very short skirt, carries
willow wheel of moderate diameter
fastened horizontally upon the top of
her head. Around this wheel threads
are fastened, equally distant from each
other, and at the end of each of these
threads is a slip moose, which is kent
open by glass bead. Thus equipped.
the young girl comes toward the Specta-
tors with basket full of eggs, which
she passes around for inspection to prove
that they are real, and not limitations.
The music strikes up a jerky, mOnoto-
nous strain and the dancer begins TO
whirl around with great rapidity. Then.
Selling an egg, she puts it in one of the
slip nooses, and, with a quick motion,
throws it from her in such a way as TO
draw the knot tight. The swift turning
OF the dancer produces a centrifugal
force which stretches the thread out
straight like ray shooting from the
circumference of the circle. One after
another the eggs are thrown out in these
slip nooses until they make a horizontal
aureole or halo about the dancers head.
Then the dance becomes still more rap
id, so rapid in fact that it is difficult TO
distinguish the features of the girl: the
is critical the least false step,
the least irregularity in time, and the
eggs dash against each other. But how
can the dance be stopped? There is but
one way-that is, TO remove the eggs
in the way in which they have
been put in place. This operation is by |
far the more delicate of the two. 1t is |
necessary that the dancer, by single !
motion, exact and unerring, should take |
hold of the egg, and remove it from the |
moose. A single false motion of the hand, |
the least interference with one of the |
threads, and the general arrangement
Is suddenly broken, and the whole per- /
Torrance disastrOusly ended. At last
all the eggs are successfully removed:
the dancer suddenly stops, and without |
seeming in the least dizzied by this
dance of twenty-five or thirty minutes.
she advances to the spectators with a
lrm step, and presents them the eggs,
which are Immediately broken into a
lat dish to prove that there is no trick
about the performance.-Scribner for
NOUe7nber.

A Remarkable Example Of Love and
Consistency.

There are many unwritten pages of
romance that would be pleasant to
weave with the realities of life. could
we obtain the permission of heroes and
heroineS to let our pen wander at will
through the charming realms of their
private affairs, touching them up with
the rosy hues of fancy when the supply
of fact runs low.
Now and then chapter comes TO us
| through design or accident, and pleas
antly varies the monotony and dizziness
of prosy everyday life, as, for instance.
in these days when fidelity and constan-
cy are but minor considerations in mat
tiers of the heart, is it not pleasing re-
lief to record the history of Henry Rev
nor's and his inamorata's love, and the
circuitous route by which it was brouobt
to happy denOuement on the broad
rolling prairies of Iowa, on Wednesday
of last week.
AT Puget Sound, off in a remote north
western corner of the United States. the
hero of our romance dwelt for years af-
ter he had quit the merry shores of Eng
land, leaving his lady-love behind him
while he came to seek his fortune in the
land of the free and the home of the
brave. For five years the lovers remain
ed true to their betrothal promises, and
in spite of time and distance renewed
their vows and told the old, old story
with all the fervency with which true
love inspires the pen as well as though
spoken by word of mouth. But hope
deferred maketh the heart sick, and Mr.
Reynor decided at length that the ocean
should no longer separate him from the
girl he had left behind him. There were
difficulties in the way, to be sure, but
love laughs at lockSmiths, or, for that
matter, any other difficulty that we have
ever known to interpose between Cupid
and his designs. So although Mr.. Rey-
nor could not 90 to England for his
bride, it was decided that they would
annihilate all obstacles, and that each
starting from their distant homes should
meet at Monmouth, Iowa. Accordingly
the true, brave-hearted lady started
from Leeds for London, from whence
she came by steamer to New York,
thence to Chicago and Clinton, arriving
at Monmouth by the evening train one
week ago to-day. Mr.. Reynor, in the
meanwhile, was jOurneying over the
dangerous and mountainous regions of
the far West, coming to Portland, Ore
gon, San Francisco and Omaha, arriv- |
ing at Monmouth by the morning train
on Tuesday last The timetables had
been well studied, and the plans of tray
ell neatly arranged, so that the long-sep- |
lrated lovers had not long to wait at |
The appointed place of reunion. On |
Wednesday, the day following their ar
rival in Iowa, they were married, and |
IN Friday visited friends in Dubuque,
congratulations over the hap
oy finale of a long and eventful court
'hip.-Dubuque Herald.

Real Pearls Instead Of Sham.

One OF the vacant shops on the Rue
de Rivoli, says the Paris correspondent
OF the Philadelphia Teleqraph, was occu-
pied temporarily by one Of those Arab
vendors of pipes, perfumes, imitation
lewelry, shawlS, etc, wherewith the Wis
Itors to Long Branch and Newport at
home have become familiar. A gentle
man residing in the upper part of the
city stopped at the stall the other dav
and purchased a string of imitation
pearls, for which he paid ninety cents.
This necklace he gave to his daughter
for one of her dolls. A celebrated Jew
eler happened to call one evening while
the child was engaged in amusing her
self with her new toy. "How foolish
you are to let a child have so valuable
an OBJECT TO play with, remarked the
leweler to the father. "Valuablei',
responded the latter. al gave four
francs and half for it the other dav.n
The Jeweler took the necklace from the
little girl, and examined it lone and
Il do not care what Won
paid for it," he said at length. "bnt
this much | do know, the pearls are real,
and the necklace is worth ten thousand
francs $4,000 at the very lowest COM
putation. If you doubt my sincerity. |
viii prove it by giving 5000 francs for
it on the spot" The next morning the
gentleman fastened with the necklace
10 the place where he had purchased it,
but the shop had in the meantime been
rented and the Arab had disappeared.

How Thunder Showers Come Up.

In order to convey a more definite
idea of our theory, we will choose a GER
tain locality which may serve the pur-
pose of diagram to our demonstra-
ton; and this locality shall be the re-
giOn of Westfield River. This river
takes its rise among the forests near the
summit of the Green Mountains, at a
height of some 1000 feet above the level
OF the sea, and, flowing southeastern
40 or 80 miles, empties into the Con-
necticut River about 10 miles from the
southern boundary of the State. Dur
ing not summer day the sides of the
deep valley of this river reek with in
tense heat, and cause a flow of moist
air upward toward the summit of the
mountain ridge, from the valley of the
Connecticut, and also from the sea.
This moist air, meeting with the gen.
eral current from the southwest, piles
up an immense mass of cumulous cloud,
of many square miles in extent. So
long as the great heat lasts the cloud
increases in size; grows blacker with
its dense vapOr, and casts a gloomy,
lurid glare over the face of nature,
darker than that of any eclipse. The
vapor, pushed up by the ascending cur
rents of heated air, attains to great
height above the sea, where the tenn
perature is very low. But finally, at
the hour of the afternoon when the heat
begins to decline, the accumulated
vapOrs, no longer augmented or sus-
tanned by heated air from the valley be-
low, fall in rain.-P0pular Science

tent, with men and cities, unaccustomed
to rainbOws and windmills, has been
known to delay start for about half an

obvious difficulties in the way of Grub
bling his nose" against the rainbow or

blindfolding him did not occur to his
friends until his suspicious touching the
wonderful works of nature and of man
had reached height at which enforced
blindness seemed more likely to aggra-
vate than mitigate the evil.

The Mothers FayOrite.

One OF the most touching stories ever
set in circulation is that of the little girl
who, on account of lack of beauty, was
sighted by vain mother who lavished
all her love and pride on the poor child's
lovely sister. One day, when madam
lay on her lounge in her own room,
languidly reading a novel, knock
sounded on her door. ais that you,
darling?" asked the lady. "No, it's
only me, mamma" timidly answered
the poor little neglected one. "Only
me :" What story of sighted love
and meek humility those two words ex-
pressedi The mothers heart was touch
ed, and from that time she strove to d.
vide her love more equally between her
two children.
There should be no favorite in the
family; such an arrangement is a blot
and curse upon it's perfect happiness.
In the first place, the favored child is
harmed by favoritism. If boy, the
chances are that he turns out very bad
ly, if a girl, she is spoiled in her temper,
and If she does not become a vixen, de-
velops into a young woman as soft and
lmpressionable as a bit of wax, and
without some severe after-training, too
likely some singing chastisement, quite
untitled to be wife and mother. Then
the mischief done to the other children
Is incalculable. In our own experience
we have seen many families shipwrecked
on the fatal rock of favoritism, and in
most cases the chief offender was the
mother. So that a mother with a fami-
ly of daughters should strive to her ut
most to be mother to all of them, be-
slowing the same warm kiss and hue
upon the plain-featured Kate as upon
the outwardly more attractive Ethel,
her supreme thought being that the
mind and future of the one were as
precious in the sight of motherly,
Christian duty-as of the other.
A mother having favorite child, and
showing her Partially, unconscious
though it may be, sows the seeds of
envy, jealousy, rage and mortified vani-
ty in the minds of the rest of her off
spring; and so in after days, when self |
is mere idle sniveling over the |
delinquency, brings on them and herself |
the blacklist of clouds. A mother
should spread her love as evenly as she |
spreads butter on bread, not squander
its whole wealth on one, and that, too, |
daughter among daughters; for
sighted sons can rub off the impression
in contact with the work-a-day world,
but in daughters il is ineffaceable. The
memory of kisses and presents in which
hey did not share clings to them
through life, and must, to a lesser or
greater extent, weaken the texture of
heir moral nature.

On Nervous Horses.

"Give a horse every chance to look
about him and to examine every object
before him and he will not shv." saws
the Russian coachman, according 10
Mr.. o. Vail. For that reason the Rus
sian horses wear no blinkers. Nor are
b!inkers so common in England-or
even in London, where there is every
thing conceivable TO upset the equanim-
lty of a nervous horse-as they once
were; though the old cure for shying is
still prevalent enough. That cure is TO
. 1t i'm over the 'ead;" and it seems
singular that it should prevail, if it be
nefficacious as well as rather brutal.
among a people credited with more
horSe-loving and horse-taming than any
Grecian tribe immortalized by Homer.
But there are in many cases serious OBJ
stacles in adopting the plan attributed
TO the Russians. First of all, the horse
has SHE'D already, without your know
ing that there was any thing which
should cause him to shy. Then is YOUR
time, If you have not broken your neck,
to let him investigate this object, after
which he will never shy at that particu-
lar object again. "Let him rub his
