A Haunted House.

\ house in Mayfair belongs to a noble
lord. 1t was let some years ago to Bra
lillian Minister, whose wife died there.
This house beng recently in the market,
was purchased by friend of the owner
On this the wife of the owner wrote to a
friend, and begged her to rescind the pur-
chase, the reason alleged being that she
would have no peace in the house, as a
ghostly woman in green had the unpleasant
knack of wandering about the staircases
and rooms, and occasionally passing through
a window and airing herself on the balcony.
The popularity of this ghost is that she ap-
pears by day as well as by night. Many
attempts have been made to grapp!e with
her. but they all proved futile. Now, | dc
not believe in ghosts, but who is this mys-
terious visitant that actually prevents the
sale of a house in London

The Fam

In India and China the original
model of the fan is SAID to have been
the wing of a bird; and an admirable
fan can always be made from two
birds wings, joined by stripe wood.
The fan of the high priests of Isis was
in the form of half circle, made of
feathers of different lengths. Such,
too, were the fans carried in triumphal
professions, and among which the
Egyptians served as military standards
in time OF war. The Sibyls are said to
nave been in the habit of tanning them
selves as they delivered their o-acles
the fan being evidently not regarded
in those days as In any way connected
with frivolity; and even now, not in
the East alone, but in Europe, the fan
plays an important part in certain re-
ligious ceremonies
Do as your conscience dictates anu
/ voayill not pO far astray.
