Acnnlrine Personal Grace.

One Of the best-known teachers 81
physical culture and oratory in the city
tells of a certain prominent divine. who
recently came to him for instruction in
the art of prayer. The prayers were
carefully discussed from the oratorical
and dramatic standpoint, aud the clefgy'
man asked.for frequent rehearsals until
he was satisfied that each phrase was
made to carry its utmost weight OF clio.
quence. Lessons were then taken up in
the art of p~osturing, of genuiection and,
above all, the divine asked that special
attention be given to the art of making
the sign of the cross in the most graceful
manner possible.
"Nor was this a novitiate in orders
said the teacher, stbut a middle-aged and
successful clergyman, who had simply
come to the conclusion that personal
grace and effective oratory are more es-
sential to-day than simple devotion. "a

Lecturer and Desperate. "a

During his lecture tours, which filled
the better part of eighteen years, "A.
Miner Griswold (the "Fat C~ontributor"C
had many curious adventures. One night
while lecturing in a very demoTalized
Western village he was constantly. inter
rupted and insulted by the town'bully,
a desperate who had killed a number of
men. The doorkeeper and usher were
afraid of the fellow, who came for tia
avowed purpose of breaking up the en-
tertainment. Griswold fnally5los his
patience, and, stopping short in . SEN
tence, said to the rufian: aSss
"My dear sir, either you or I must
leave the hall" gssA,t.
The man leaned back in his cha1f. and
smilingly answered; -
"Waal, young fellow, I guess you had
better quit" ~

running forward at full speeds 1eaped
from the platform full upon his sadyer-
sary. What with his speed, big Weight

Fuuera, of a Burmese Queen.

The Rangoon Gndia) Gazette reports
the burial recently of the Meebya Queen,
one of the wives of King Mindone Min,
whose body had been lying some time in
state at the residence of her daughter,
near Rangoon. About q o'clock the pro-
c~ession, which was nearly a mile long,
started. White umbrellas, the special
symbol of Burmese royalty, were numer-
Gus, and the priests mustered in strong
force. The shrines and other ornamental
structures were ablaze with gold leaf, the
bands of music numerous, and the cart.
loads of presents for the priests would
have sufficed to stock a bazaar with al,
most every conceivable article of food
and wearing apparel, beside crockery,
kerosene oil, fans and furniture. The
Princess, as chief mourner, walked il
front of the coffin, preceded by her reti'
nue. of fifty white robed women walking
in pairs; before them girls strewed the
path with roses. The Princess, like her
attendants, was dressed in pure white,
and wore no jewels whatever. She and
her maids of honor bore in their hands
the white rope attached to the coffin.
The latter was slung from a pole and
carried by bearers. Over it was thrown
a splendidly decorated pail, piled high
with bright flowers. The scene of the
cremation was on the slope of the Sheay
Dagon Pagoda, near Bahan, where an
Enclosure had been erected round the
funeral pile, upon which the gilt coffin
was laid to the sound of weird music.
By desire of the Princess the coffin was
opened to enable her to take a last look
at her mother. The pile vas then set fire,
and after the body had been entirely
consumed the ashes were taken away to
be cast on the broad bosom of the IRA
Waddy.

The Emperor's Decoration.

A romantic story attaches to the new
decoration announced by the Emperor of
Japan in eommemoration of Emperor
Jinnu's coronation, 1850 years ago. The
distinguishing feature of the decoration
is a golden fish hawk. The legend is
that during Jimmu's conquest of eastern
Japan the sky one day became suddenly
dark, and q fish hawk of golden hue
settled on the Emperor's crossbow. The
bird threw off q brilliant light, by which
the enemy were dazzled and the Emperor's
forces were victorious.

essential part of the process, and the tra-
dition is that in dream he returned to
England, examined the machinery, found
what he wanted, and upon awaking COM
pleted his work successfully.
A recent article in the Ere1ling Post
alludes to this story. But many years ago
Mr.. Slater himself related the circum-
stance TO gentleman in this country, who
often repeated it in his family, from whom
we have it. After long labor, working
secretly, with the aid of one man only,
Slater thought he had put the machinery
in running order, and invited few gentle
men interested in the en- :erprise to see the
happy result of his toll. Proud and ex-
cited, he essayed to start the machine, but
it did not move. In vain he tried, and,
mortified and grieved, he dismissed his
friends, assuring them, however, that he
should certainly discover the difficulty.
But he was deeply discouraged. All the
day and night he pondered and exam
ined and tested and tried the machinery.
But it still remained motionless. Atlength,
heart-sick and weary, he leaned his head
against the machine and fell asleep. As
he slept he heard distinctly a cheerful,
friendly voice saying, "Why don't you
chalk the bands, Sam ?' He started up,
broad awake and knew at once that a
slight friction in the working of the ma
chine was what was wanting, and again
summoning his friends, he saw in the
smooth action Of the jenny the triumphant
result of his work. 1t is pleasant story,
and the Slater legend is not an invention,
unless Mr.. Slater deceived himself.-Hdr-

MAcH1NERY's WONDER WORK.
Beautiful Ornaments for Ladies Dresses
Made Without Finger Touch.

1t is very curious to an outsider to watch
the operations of braiding machine, says
the Pittsburg Dispatch. In one factory
there are some ten different kinds of ma
chimes kept in operation. The most Curl
Gus of all is machine whose special do
main is the so-called applique" work: 1t
performs three tasks at one and the same
time. When properly adjusted a tiny
knife cuts out, according to the pretty de-
sign intended, the figures from the upper
layer of cloth, while simultaneously the
machine sews these figures on to the layer
of cloth underneath-the upper layer be-
ing generally of medium thickness, while
the lower one is cloth of the thickest,
warmest and most expensive kind, such as
is suitable for lady's cloak. The effect
thus obtained-artistic arabesques, beauti-
fully curving lines, forming an intricate
yet pleasing pattern, lying on the cloth
underneath very pretty indeed.
The beading machine. by means of
which those most elegant ornaments on a
woman's dress, those glistening arabesques
of beading, are put on, is another triumph
of mechanical genius. The same may be
said of the leather-edge machine, which
does the so-called sunbeam and "rain-
bow" work, embroidering the shades,
which are gradually toned down; or the
cornelly machine. which does the cording,
and still more so of the soutache machine,
which does the simplest and yet one of the
most effective styles of embroidery.

Taking Vacations.

Good habits, long persisted in, may and
do become bad habits To some this prop
osition may appear paradoxical. But it
will become clear when we reflect that any
routine in habits tends to the over-use of
certain organs, and to corresponding lack
of the use of others; so that, on the one
hand, the former becomes liable to diseases
of over-excitability, while the latter are
rendered liable to those of torpidity. Thus
even good habits may become productive
of disease. Indeed, it is so common as to
be within the observation of every one that
a change from such routine is conducive of
health-in fact, often entirely renovates
the individual. Hence the benefits of va
cations which afford an entire revolution
in the scenes and employments of pro-
fessional and business men. Broadly con-
sidered, change which brings about an
alteration of vital action is the sole cura-
tive principle in disease, whether accom-
plished by fresh scenes, unaccustomed diet,
altered habits or drugs. As conservator
of health, too, it is pre-eminent.-North
American Reuieu.
