The devotion Of the Indians to the
memory of their king who was strangled
$50 years ago is very touching. When
the last of the Incas' fell he left his
people in perpetual mourning, and the
women wear nothing but black to-day.
It is q pathetic custom Of the race not to
show upon their costumes the slightest
hint of color. over a short black skirt
they wear a sort of mantle, which re-
sembles in its appearance, as well as in
its use, the 'manta" that Is worn by the
ladies of Feru. and the ''mantilla' of
Spain. It is drawn over their fore
heads and across the chin and
pinned between the shoulders. The
somber costume gives them a nun-like
appearance, which is heightened by the
stealthy, silent way in which they dart
through the streets. The cloth is woven
on their own native looms of the wool
OF the llama and the %vicunas, and is n
soft, fine texture.
While the Indians are under the des-
potic rule of the priests and have ac-
copied the Catholic relion, $50 years of
submission has not entirely divorced
them from the ancient rites they prac-
ticed under their original civilization.
Several times n year they have feasts or
celebrations to commemorate some
event in the Inca history, and, like the
Aztees in Mexico, they still cling to a
hope that future ages may restore the
dynasty under which their fathers
lived, and destroy the hated Spaniards.

'fSaloop loop loop was formerly n
well known cry in London. The decoc-
ton sold under this name seems, how
ever, to have been superseded by coffee
when that article became cheap. Saloop
seems to have been sold down to mod
ern times at street stalls, from
n late hour at night to early
morning. Just as coffee is sold
now. Charles Lamb says of it: There
is a composition, the groundwork Of
which | have understood to be sweet
wood ycelpt sassafras. This wood boiled
down to a kind of tea, and tempered
with an infusion Of milk and sugar,
hath to some tastes a delicaoy beyond
the China luxury. This is Saloop, the
precious herb-woman's darling; the de
light Of the early gardener; the delight,
and oh l fear, too often the envy of the
%unpennied sweep He goes on to speak
of those "who from stalls and under
open sky dispense the same savory mess
to humble customers, at the dead tim9
of dawn, when las extremes meet the
rake reeling home from his midnight
cups, and the hard handed artisan
leaving his bed TO resume the prema-
ture labors of the day, jostle n an
other.

A western preacher once compared
swearing 10 driving spikes into polished
rosewood, and Mr.. Beecher is credited
with the assertion that there arc times
when a man must either swear or burst,
and that at such times he prefers the
former. Why human nature should find
u better vent for pent-up Indignation in
profanity than in he explosive %utterances
of such a trisyllahle as Timbuctoo is not
easily seen. but the fact is beyond contra
diction.
According TO The London Telegraph
even animals are sensitive to the stimulus
Of a round and ellmouihcd oath. On
Stewards marches the camels made about
three miles an hour, while on Graham's
their pace seldom exceeded one mile The
mystery vas explained when it was dis
covered that Stewards men swore at the
burden bearers. while Graham's men used
only the pcrsuasives which are quiet and
decorous. The chaplain preached against
swearing. but there was no gainsaying the
stern fact that If Il camel was to travel
three miles an hour somebody must swear
at him W hen Mr. Gladstone is trying
his best to get out of Egypt. perhaps even
Limited amount of this vicious indulgence
