a TALE OF RoYALTY.-M Florian Phar-

Humbcrt of Italy, who is fond of shooting.
During one of his excursions he was met by a
peasant, who looked on with admiration ut
the havoc the King had made among a
covcy Of partridgcs. He did moi know the
monarch, and seeing him in the dress of an
ordinary sportsman, could not recognize
him. He complimenteG him on his skill
with his gun, and then told him that if he
would come to his farm on the following
morning at daydreak and kill Il fox which
had made several raids on his roost he
would not mind giving him Il couple of
francs for his trouble. King Humbert
kept his appointment, and was for
tunate enough to kill the fox. The delight
ed peasant welcomed him on his return.
called his wife and children out, and insist
ed on the King sharing their breakfast with
them. At the end of the repast the peasant
took leave Of his visitor pressing two
frame piece in his hand, which the King Toss
ed up in the air and caught. declaring it
was the first money he had ever earned.
Two days afterwards the peasant was sur-
prised to see IN officer in uniform ride up in
an open carriage with presents from the
King for his wife and children He then
learned to whom he owed his obligation.

which he had hob nobbed with royalty.-Lon-

CANALS ON THE PLANET MARs.-The
Rev. T. W. Webb, author of Celestial OBJ

to the London Times respecting Schiapar-
ellis discovery of canals on the planet
Mars: 1t has long been known that the sur
lace OF the planet Mars is SO mapped out in
TO brighter and darker portions as to sug-
gest the idea Of continents and oceans, and
the analogy thus implied with the arrange
mcnts of our own globe is strengthened bv

which may well be explained by the sllpp0-
sitlOn OF VapOrous atmosphere.
In the autumn Of 1877 and spring of 1878.
Il number ofminute. straight. black or tluskv
bands were detected by Schiaparelli, trav-

been called from their aspect canals

rather to the appelation of straits, or very
long, narrow arms of the sea. a very few
OF these had been previously seen by various
observers. but to the Italian astronomer be-
longed the credit ofdeveloping and delinea-
ting them as system. At the ensuing re-
turn of the planet in lS79-'S0, they were
again detected and drawn by him, with very
little difference. But during the course of
last January and February he has been so
fortunate as to perceive the duplication of
these dark streaks by the addition of paral-
lei lines of similar character and lengths in
no fewer than twenty instances, covering
the equatorial region with q strange and
mysterious network. to which there is moth

NEVER SAW a WoMAN.-Meadow's his
tory of the Chinese, published in London, in
q chapter on love, has the following story
"a Chinese who had been disappointed in
marriage, and had grievously suffered
through woman in many otherways, retired
his infant son to the peaks of mountain
range in Kweichoo, to spot quite mac
cessible to little-footed Chinese women. He
trained the boy to worship the Gods and
stand in awe and alb, orrencc Of the devils,
but he never mentioned women to him,
always descending the mountain alone to
buy food At length, however, the infrmi-
ties of age compelled him to take the young
man with him to carry The heavy bag of
rice AS they were leaving the n" ,rket 'wn
together. the son suddenly stopped short
and pointing to three approaching objects,
cried out Father, what are these things
Look look! what are they?' The father
instantly answered with the peremptory
order, Turn your head, they are devils?'
The son in some alarm turned away, MOTTO
ing that the evil things were gazing at him
with surprise from behind their fans. He
walked to the mountain in silence, eat no
supper and from that day lost his appetite
and was afflicted with melancholy. For
some time his troubled and anxious parent
could get no satisfactory answer to his in
quiries, but at length the young man burst
out, crying with inexplicable pain, oh,
father, that tallest devil that tallest devil,
