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 iugglers is the Z" egg dance" This z
Is not, as one might expect from the name
given It, dance upon these fragile OBJ
iects. 1t is executed in this wise The
dancer, dressed in a corsage and very
short skirt, carries awillow.wheel of mods
crate diameter fastened horizontally upon 4
the top of her head. Around this wheel
threads are fastened, equally distant from
each other, and al the end of each Of these
threads is slip-noose, which is kept open g
by q glass bead. Thus equipped the
young girl comes toward the spectators
with basket full of eggs, which she
passes around for inspection to prove that
they are real, and not limitations. The
music strikes up jerky, monotonous
strain and the dancer. begins to whirl
around with great rapidly. Then seiz-
ing an egg she puts 1t in one of the slip.
nooses, and, with quick motion, throws
II from her in such a way as 10 draw the
knot tight. The swift turning of the
dancer produces a centrifugal force which
stretches the thread out straight like array
shooting from the circumference of the
circle. One after another the eggs are
thrown out in these slip-nooses until they
make horizontal aureole or halo about
the dancers head Then the dance be-
comes still more rapid, so rapid in fact
that it is difficult to distinguish the feat
ures of the girl; the moment is critical;
the least false step, the least irregulariiy
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 a single
motion, exact and unerring, should take
hold of the egg and remove ii from the
moose. single false motion of the hand,
the least interference with .one of the
threads and the general arrangement is
suddenly broken and the whole perform.
ance disastrously ended. At last all the
eggs are successfully removed; the
dancer suddenly stops, and without seem
ing in the least dizzied by this dance of
twenty-five or thirty minutes she advances
to the spectators with firm step and pre-
serts them the eggs, which are immedi-
ately broken in fiat dish to prove that
there is no trick about the performance

Big Books.

Beyond doubt too many books are pub
lished, as well as too many editions of
good books. There would not be much
chance of the latter if they were of the
bulk of the Chinese version of the Bud
dhtst Scriptures, copy of which has Just
been given TO the India Office Library in
london by His Excellency Iwakura Tom
omi, Chief of the Japanese Embassy
which visited England some years since.
This work, the Athenaum tells us, is put
up in seven large boxes, weighing about
three and quarter tons, and will require
a room TO itself. Big enough, certainly,
to be entitled to its three names-Tripita-
ka in Sanskrit, Santsang in Chinese, and
Issaikio in Japanese. There is another
good little book in the same library, set
of the Tibetan version of the Buddhist
canon, IN 1874 volumes. Whether this be
the same book in different tongue is a
question, for an answer to which j must
refer to Mr. Conway, whose studies have
for long time been vigorously pushed
among Oriental literatures and religions.
A third treasure of the India Library is
the Pail Tipitaka," written on PALM
leaves, in the Burmese character in fifty
boxes. One is not much in the habit of
computing books by boxes instead of vol
umes, but it will be safe to e0njecture that
a number of volumes may Be Contained in
one box.-Smdltey's London Cor. N. ].

To Stop a Runaway Horse.

We know Of nothing which will create
such disturbance in town as a runaway
horse.
Let horse get loose and start out to go
il on his own hook, and nine-tenths of the
men, all of the boys and dogs, and few
women, will quit business TO run out into
the street and see how he manages.
In view of the fact that Tunaways are
very common occurrences, everybody
ought TO know how TO stop a runaway
horse.
In the first place scream at him with all
your might. No matter whether you
scream "Whoa" or "Hir' or "Hop'
one interjection is as efficacious as an
other. Swing your hat at him. Flourish
your cane in his face. Shake your coat
tails at him. Throw clubs at him if you
can get them, if not, bricks win do.
Set the dogs on him. Head him of
and let him turn dswn some cross street.
The turning will bring things to a crisis
sooner, and everybody knows there is
nothing so hard to bear as suspense.
Keep screaming. Besure and not slack
up on that. Jump in front of him and
shake your fists at him to let him know
that man is his master, and then jumpone
side when he comes along, for fear you
might scare him If you got him by the
bit.
When he has smashed things, and is
stopped, it will take from dozen TO
fifteen men TO hold him, and feel of his
legs, and screw up his smouth with the bit,
and pull him hard by the head TO show
him how abominably he has behaved, and
every one Of these fifteen men ought TO tell
what he would do with "that horse II
i were only his.-Rate Thorn, IN N. Y.
Weekly.
THE late Mr. John Jones being asked
by friend how he kept himself from be
ing involved in quarrels, replied; BY
letting the angry person have all the quar-
rel TO himself"
