gress with English and can quite easily
carry on short conversation on ordin-
airy everyday society topics. She has a
chirpy, bird-like way of speaking, and
| conveys her meaning quite as much bv
her expressive face as by her words. Her
gestures are extremely graceful and her
conversation is animated when with her
friends. She is fond of talking of dress,
society doings and other ladies' chat in
English, and i'll her native tongue is an
animated and brilliant conversationalist
IN handling more weighty subjects. Our
English proper names and idioms puz-
zle her and are the only things in our
language that tax her memory very
much.
This is how this charming little lady
from the Orient spends her day gener-
ally: She has her coffee and roll in bed,
French fashion; gets up about 10 OF IL,
practices talking English, has late
breakfast or luncheon, studies great
deal, sometimes for six or seven hours
If she doesn't go out; makes and receives
calls, practices on the koto, writes let
terS to her friends i'll Japan, working for
hours ut the long columns of puzzling
japanese characters, and, most delight
full of all to her, chats to Mr.. Mutsu.
Then comes Ill the evening an elaborate
dinner of six or seven courses, and later
some amusement at home or away from
it. Neither the Minister nor Nine.
Mutsu drink wine, but always have it
for company. With every box from
home comes japanese food, but Amer
lean cooking pleases them very well, es-
pecially our roast beef and potatoes.
They have bright daughter of about
fourteen or fifteen named Saya Cpro-
nounced Si-yah), who goes to school.
She is taller than her mother, a trihe
darker, and has the rosiest of rosy
cheeks. She speaks English very we'll,
is quick at repartee and full of life and
fun. In speaking she is very dramatic,
acting what she tells, and talking with
eyes and hands and tongue. She has a
big mastitf for pet that is over three
feet high and weighs 13S pounds.
Both the Minister and Nine. Mutsu
as wellas Saya arc fond of fun, are witty
and obseryant, and have n keen sense of
humor. They learn our ways quickly,
almost unconsciously, and have keen,
minds, and their politeness is
part OF their lives, not merely veneer
ing as that of ours so often is. The
Legation is furnished i'll the American
but there are many beautiful
Japanese screens, cabinets, embroider-
les, Japanese ware and pictures. In the
drawing room the position of honor is
given to large painting of Fujijama,
the highest mountain i'll Japan. Two
of the eight servants that wait on the
Minister and his wife are Japanese.
They have given two large entertain
ments since they have been here, one an
evening entertainment celebrating the
promulgation of their constitution, and
the other a large afternoon tea, for
invitations to which our society people
resorted to every stratagem.- Il New York

The Myrtle Orange.

The myrtle orange is very sparingly
propagated by Florida nurscrymen, and
seldom found in any considerable guam,
tity even i'll our largest groves. Iu the
City of New Orleans, however, and at
several places on the Mississippi Sound
it is much priced, and planted for both
ium size-seldom attaining tho height
and expanse of the more common
sweet or sour Orange-but when highly
cultivated and web cared for has no
superior in beauty and athactiveness,
even in the beautiful citrus family.
Ii is of rather dwariish habit, with
nall, very compact, ovate, sharpe poiut-
, | leaves, and small, round fruit, of q
..mewhat austere and acid flavor. If
glly cultivated it is often in flower
fruit Mt the same time, and on this
count may be made quite an ornment
p,lr gardens and grounds. 1t is said
I've employed by the Chinese gar
aers(who thoroughly understand the
II dwarfing) as an edging of flower
lis. in the same manner rs 1.-THE dwarf
y, is used in Europe and America.
Tie myrtle orange, | repeat, requires
Il 81, culture, which it amply repays by
Il great profusion of flowers and fruit,
the latter often crowding together on
the branches i'll almost solid cluster and
masses. 1t has no value us IN edible

when properly preserved, produces n

A Grotesque New Yorker.

The New York Star prints descrip-
ton of the most grotesque looking in
dividual who walks the streets of New
York. Somebody has dubbed him ''the
Fulton street dude" and his figure must
be familiar to all downtown people. He
has been goodness knows where
for the past several months, and turn
ed mp again only the other day. He
usually walks on Fulton street and Park
Row, but takes an occasional walk on the
Brooklyn Bridge in the afternoon. No
one can pass him by unnoticed. If one
is not attracted by his ballet dancer
step, one must be by his burlesque ap-
pearance.
He wears very small, old-fashioned
silk hat, polished to the last degree of
nicely with stove backing. A piece of
blue ribbon is pinned to collar which
is eternally rising up to his ears in the
back. The ribbon is adjusted as neck
tie in front. His hair is long, black
grey, and is waXed stiffer than starch.
No one knows where he lives CT what he
does, and words of sympathy for him
are frequently expressed. He hardly
needs sympathy, though, as his bearing
indicates nothing but extreme content
ment and self-importance, happy form
of insanity, if he can live ON it.

The Era of the Aztecs.

The period of fifty two years formed
a complete era for the Aztecs, and they
questioned whether at the end of that
period the great heavenly clock, having
performed it's revolution, might not
stop forever. This era menaced con-
siderable number of the population
once in their lives, and some of them
perhaps twice. The night on which the
fifty second year would expire was a
solemn moment to them, and was sig
naliZed by cXtingnisling the sacred
fires in the temples and those on private
hearth-stOnes, and by breaking all
vessels that had contained provisions;
and the evening was passed in darkness,
with trembling and fear. The day was
in November. when the Pleiades would
culminate at midnight, and this moment
was the termination Of the century.
AS the hour appeared, the human victim
was sacrificed, and the sticks were rub
bed over hIs still quick body for striking
the fire for his funeral pile and the i'll
&uguration of the new era, Men were
waiting with torches ready to be lighted
with which the new fire was to be dis
tlibuted to all the provinces. The mo-
ment of midnight was hailed with
shouts of Joy. The world hnd not come
to an end, and men could hope that it
would last at least through another era.
Those who could not attend the public
ceremonies watched kEeeling on the
roofs of their houses. The secular fest
ival was suppressed by the Spaniards,
the last human victim having been sac
rihced on the pyramid of Taloc in 1907.

Can Snakes Charm Birds ?

Three different incidents of snakes
charming birds have fallen under my
own observation, says letter from
New Madrid. Once L saw blueiay
/ charmed by what is commonly known as
the "blue racer" snake. The next in
/ stance was n redbird charmed by a
"blue racer" and the next was a cat
bird charmed by ''cowsucker." As
a&ese snakes are cIasso1 rs non poison
ous, they could not have bitten the birds
and then quietly awaited their death.
In the first case the bird was in an
apple tree, some ten OF twelve feet from
the ground, when its attention was first
arrested. The other two were somewhat
under the influence of the snakes charm
when first observed. / would Judge that
it takes from one to two hours for q
snake to bring bird completely under
the spell, which they can most certainly
do if not disturbed after the birds atten-
ton is once gained.
have never seen snake charm q
frog, though L have seen them catch
frogs often. They are more than n match
for the frog in footrace; consequently
they have frog legs to eat whenever they
wish, provided the frogs can be found.
| The greatest trouble is to swallow the
frog after catching him. The frog is
swallowed heels first Whether this is
a preference ON the part of the snake or
whether it is because this is the first
part overtaken and laid hold of, 1 do
not know. When caught the poor frog
cries out in the most pitiable terror.
Then the struggle of life and death be-
gins, with determined animal instinct
ON the part of the snake; nay, l might
say with devilish triumph-for he knows
that victory is sure in the end-and al
most human horror on the frogs part.
The instant the snake seizes hind leg
it is swallowed, and the hard part of the
job is to get hold of the other leg with
out releasing the one he already has.
The frog soon finds it useless to strug-
gle to release the leg already swallowed
by the snake, and seems to realize that
its only hope is to keep the leg that is
free out of that horrible mouth which
has such wonderful suction power. l
once saw garter snake push frog over
thirty yards, endeavOring to force the leg
of the frog that was free against some
obstruction, that it might get a hold
upon that also. 1t finally succeeded,
and the struggle was soon over after
that. When both hind legs are once
in the snakes power a deeper horror
seems to take possession of the poor
little creature who has battled SO hard
for life; its eyes dilate with terror and
assumes a CLASSY stare, its whole body is
stupefed, paralyzed with an awful
dread of its impending fate. The snake
does not swallow; it crawls over its
prey. 1t does so by means of strongly
contracting muscles in the throat.

Extinction OF Plants,

A committee of the British Associa-
ton for the advancement of Science has
reported eighty-five flowers that have
become completely or practically extinct
in Scotland. The white water-lily WAS
curiously found to have been nearly ex-
terminated in the lochs about Dumfries
by the rava8es of single individual,
who has now been warned off the estates.
plant which existed only in one local
ity in the country, the bog of Methven,
was undoubtedly destroyed by flock of
black gulls which settled in the bog and
devoured everything in the shape of
vegetation. Another plant, growing i'll
shingle on the Bay of Nigg, was com
pletely exterminated by the use of tho
shingle for concrete piers; and n grass
which was confined to patch near
Moray Firth was destroyed by the over
turning of tree. The disappearance of
plants has been largely due to the in
judiciousncss OF botanists.- Prairie

Laughing at Ben Franklin.

The American Ambassador, Benjamin
Franklin and Silas Deane, We're received
by King Louis XVI, of France, and his
| Queen Ill years ago last March %. On
the following day the Russian Count
/ Tschernscheff found ON the top step of
! the entrance to the Royal palace in Ver-
sailles letter addressed to M. de Sar-
tines and signed by Nine. de Lamballe.
! Tschernscheff took the letter home with
him and read it, and sent copy of it
! to his sovereign, Katherine Ii, of Russia.
| The last number of the Revue Nouvelle
contains the letter. Nine. de Lamballe
wrote thus:
'"This morning 1 was at the Queens
levee, which, ON account of the presence
of the American Ambassadors, was
frightfully long. / have such head
ache that / would not write did L not
know how anxious you are to know how
We liked the gentlemen from America.
Well, SO, so, Ia, la. You have the Coun-
tess julie and me to thank for even this
much. 1t cost us no little trouble to get
the Queen into the mood to hear them.
Unfortunately Nine. Bertin had been
with her, and you know how unfavora-
bic to the interests of the mOdistes the
war with England is. Nine. Bertin had
poked so much fun at the American Am
bassadors, that, when they entered, she
could hardly preserve her dignity and
straight face, and L do not wonder at it.
They were, in fact, wretchedly dressed.
There was nothing distinguished about
them. We described to the Queen in
vain the simplicity of the costumes
of these people and their pre-
judice against all forms. Say what
you will, answered the Queen, they do
look something like canaille.' We
laughed at this and she regained her
good humOr which she had lost on ac-
count of these barbarians But L beg of
you spare our decorum and send us
your clown when they come again, so
that we may not break down entirely.
The Countess julie and promise you to
do our best to cure the Queen of her
prejudice"
After copying Nine. de Lamballe's
letter Tscherncheff returned it anony-
mously to M. de Sartines, who was so
provoked by its loss, and by the mysteri-
BUSINESS of its reappearance that he of
fered the police reward of 10000 francs
for the discovery of the finder. His
curiosity was never satisfied. Tschern-
schef's sovereign was 50 pleased with
his cleverness in handling the letter
that she sent him her picture and
50, 900 snuff box. In her next letter to
him she intimated that Marie Antoinette
seemed to be doing a good deal of
and that ''she laughed best
who laughed last"
