Roral customs in AMMAN.

A member of the French mission at
Hue, who has contributed an interesting
account of his eighteen months residence
i'm the capital of AMMAN 10 a French
paper, mentions among many other curl
Gus things which he observed there the
trading propensities of the princes of the
blood royal Every year one or other
of these princes opens a regular bazaar
shortly after the New Years festivities in
the court of his palace. where the most
varied assortment of merchandise is ex-
hibited for sale. Odds and ends of
European glassware, curios of different
nationalities, "articles de-Paris," bottles
of decoction of sarsaparilla and of the
bicarbonate of soda form the motley
stock in trade on these occasions. The
mission was surprised to find a
plentiful supply of the best brand
Of Manila cheroots on one of the stalls
in 1880. The Spaniards had made
present Of 5000 genuine " Imperiales
to Tu-duc, who, preferring the native
tobacco for his own consumption, gave
them to the princes, and they, in turn,
were not above making an honest penny
by retailing the royal gift I'm quantities
TO suit purchasers" A still more curious
commerce practiced by them is the sale
of bricks. Their residences are sur
rounded by thick walls of brick, built at
the kings expense. The unfortunate
scions of the royal house who depend
entirely on the kings liberality-which
is grudgingly bestowed, it would seem
for their support, are often glad to raise
a little money by selling the bricks of
which the walls round their compound is
built. The walls are consequently riddled
with breaches in their entire circumfer-
ence; and the writer states that he has
never seen a complete and unchanged
wall around the residence of any of the
princes Of AMMAN.

The Old Rush Light.

Young. and even middle-aged, people,
accustomed to the convenience OF the
modern lucifer-match, can hardly imagine
the time when the Undertook, with its
clumsy flint and steel and broad brim-
stone matches, was the only means of
procuring a light Some people were
more skillful than others in striking a
light and blowing the spark and match
TO a flame; but often on wlntry morn
inc it was weary work with the servant
who had to kindle the first fire if the
finder happened to be damp, or worn
out, or the flint and steel : IN tenn
per-" Indeed in many houses a rush
light was in some bedroom or other
always burnt, so that in case of sudden
illness or any disaster there might be light
ready. The rushlight, having, as Its
name implies, rush wick, was
about fifteen inches long, and was burnt
in a huge perforated shade; 1t was the
= farthing rushlight, . which very poor
people were said to use for other pur-
poses than night-hght. The picture of a
half-starved seamstress in her garnet
would, in those days, have been incom-
plete without the thin rush-candle; but
its flame was so feeble that / can hardly
fancy any eyes could have served to thread

An African Funeral.

a letter from Africa thus describes
funeral on the Congo: The body OF the
dead man had been previously smoked
and dried over a slow fire, so that the
flesh, except upon the hands, was
shrunkcn and reduced TO a leathery COW
eIing round the gaunt bones. The face
had been gaudily painted with scarlet,
yellow and white pigments, and the
whole body was incrusted with the red
dye Of the camwood tree. Round the
nose and mouth was wrapped band Of
cloth, and patterned cottons swathed
the body. For some reason the hands
were quite plump and well covered with
flesh as if in life. The dead man had
been placed in his grave in sitting pos
ture, many layers Of native cloth lying
under him, and ready to cover him
up on the top were piles Of cotton
stufis received in trade from the far
oil coast, and representing TO these
natives considerable amount of
wealth. In the vague, halfdetermined
notions which the people here have con-
ceivcd as 10 a future existence, every
thing in the spirit world is supposed to
be pale copy of things existing on the
earth, so that for this reason they put
cloth, vessels of pottery, and, in the case
Of chief, dead slaves into the graves, in
order that the deceased, on arriving at
the Land Of Shades, may not appear UNI
provided with the necessary means of
making fresh start in new life. The
grave in which this man was buried had
been dug in hut, and the head of the
corpse was notmore than two feet bclowthe
surface We could not ascertain whether
the hut, or rather house-for it was "a
substantial building of poles and thateh
would be abandoned or not. / fancy
not, as it is only in the case of a chief
that this is done; and the man. that was
dead, although rich and influential, was,
after all, only the favorite slave of the

Trout striped with Gold.

w. 5. Bender. chief clerk of the ophir
company, who has Just returned from
lnyo, saws that in some lakes situated well
up toward the summit Of Mount Whitney
are found trout that have along their
sides golden stripe Ne such trout are
-ound in any other place in the world.
They are from ten to eighteen inches
in length. and those who have seen them
say they are the most beautiful fish they
have ever seen in any part OF the world.
After the fish have been out of the water
for time and have become dry and
shriveled the brightness fades out of the
golden stripe TO considerable extent.
These beautiful trout are found in chain
of lakes lying in deep canon. Recently
a fishing party went up from Independ-
ence and caught two hundred of these
trout. Without much trouble they might
be planted in many places in the lakes

Considering all the ills that attack
little children, it is wonder that
any of the poor little youngsters
live to grow up.
There are children who are truly
ia.E objects Of pity. They seem almost
bloodless. Their cheeks are thin
and pinched; their eyes are hollow;
and their skin is tightly drawn
over their foreheads. There is
3 nothing hearty about them. They
'.' do not enjoy their lives. They are
suffering from the debility that
leads to marasmus. Poor things
Do a good deed for the pale,
poor puny, pallid child. Hand its
mother a bottle Of B,oun's Iron
Biteys Here is life even for the
most delicate, the most debilitated;
.ab for the child almost given up for
dead. Iron in the blood is what the
I'll child needs to bring it up. The
little digestive apparatus will re-
cover. The pale cheeks will fill out.
The weary groan Of the child will be
exchanged for the merry prattle of
infantile gladness. Your druggist will
tell YOU what wonders B,oacn's Inn
