The Thankless lseggar.

An interesting anecdote is related by
the "Yugend Freunde" of King Alphonso
K, surnamed "The Wise, who succeeded
to the throne Of Leon and Castillo in
1852. On learning that his pages neg
lected to ask the divine blessing before
partaking Of their daily meals, he was
deeply grieved and sought diligently to
point out to them the evil of this omis-
sion. At length he succeeded in finding
plan. He invited the pages of his court
to dine with him. A bountiful repast
was spread, and when they were all as
sembled around the table the king gave
a signal that all was in readiness for
them to begin. They all enjoyed the
rich feast, but not one remembered to
ask Gods blessing on his food.
Just then, unexpectedly to the thought
less guests, entered a poor, ragged beg
gar, who unceremoniously seated him
self ut the royal table, and ate and drank
undisturbed, to his hearts content. Sur
prise and astonishment were depicted on
every countenance.
The pages looked first at the king,
then gazed upon the audacious intruder,
expecting momentarily that his majesty
would give orders to have him removed
from the table. Alphonso, however, kept
silence; while the beggar, unabashed by
the presence of royalty, ate all he de-
sired. When his hunger and thirst were
appeased he rose and without word of
thanks departed from the palace.
"What a despicable, mean fcllowv'
cried the boys. Calmly the good king
rose, and, with much earnestness, said;
"Boys, bolder and more audacious than
this beggar have you all been. Every
day you sit down to table supplied by
the bounty of your heavenly father, yet
you ask not his blessing, and leave it
without expressing to him your gratitude.
Yes, each and all of you should be
heartily ashamed of your conduct, which
was for worse than was the poor beg.

A delightful discovery, and one of
which Iextendcd the field of observation
daily. AT last as many as eight or nine
of these little music lovers would sit
around me in the most comic attitudes.
Nay, two of them, mother and its
young one, would sit awaiting mo as
arrived whistling at the same hour of
day, sitting on large stone. under which
was probably their home. With these.
too, made some further experiments.
After having made music to them for
awhile cautiously went few steps fur
ther, whistlins on in soft, drawing tones,
such as l had found they best loved to
hear, and see, verify, they followed me!
Watching them with intense interest,
| continued to whistle us walked on
slowly. hating every few PAGES and
beng silent while halted. and truly the
little creatures followed, slowly, it is
true, but in Il straight line, ut distance
OF about fifteen steps, until at last, un-
happily, the heavy tread of peasant put
them to flight. But my experience had
lasted long enough to make me under
stand the Apollo Sauroktonos, and Ionce
more reycrenced the keen native obser-
vation of those old Hellenes. Besides
this, the legend of the "Ratcatcher of
Hamelin" suddenly became much more
credible.-1eisure Hours.

The Dissertation of Rome.

In order not to wander too far from
the main subject will cite one item
only of these annals of destruction.
will mention what happened in the val
ley of the Forum between 1910 and 164O
In less than ten years time the men en-
ployed by the contractors of st. Peters
to search for building materials crossed
the valley of the Forum from end to end,
like anpppalling meteor, destroying, dis
mantling, splitting into fragments, burn
ing into lime, the temples, the arches,
the basilicas most famous In Roman his
tory, in the history of the Old World,
together with the inscriptions which in
dicated their former use or design, and
the statues and bass-reliefs which orna-
mented them. In 1910 the podium,
steps and pediment of the temple of An
toninus and sFaustina were removed to
st. Peters or otherwise made use Of
Between 1541 and 1916 the same fate be-
fell the triumphal arch raised in honor
of Fabius Maxilnus, the conqueror of
Savoy; the triumphal arch raised in
honor of Augustus after the battle of
Actium; the temple of Romulus, son of
Maxentius, and portion of the Cloaca
Maxima. In 1916 the temple of Julius
Caesar was leveled to the ground, to-
gether with the Fasti Consulares and
Triumphales engraved OH its marble
basement; in 1547 the temple of Castor
and Pollux was dismantled; in 1549 the
temple of Vcsta, the temple of Augustus
and the shrine of Vortumnus.-Black-

The Upper Berth.

A Pullman sleeper conductor: Every
body who wants berth in sleeper
wants the lower berth. have been in
the employ of the company for fourteen
years, and have never yet had an appli-
cation for an upper berth. OF course,
tho upper berth is not so easy of access
as tho lower, but if you don't mind climb
ing to the upper berth you will at once
admit, after the night is ovcr that it is
the more comfortable of the two. The
ventilation is better and you are not SO
close to the rumbling noise. You are
more private than you are in lower
berth, and in case of accident you have
n chance of coming out ON top. In hot
weather the upper berth is cooler than
the lower.
The lower berth, as you know, is made
up from the cushioned seats, which are
of warm material. l have never known
q man to fall out of an upper berth. l
think if the company would make a diff
ference of half dollar in favor of the
upper berth it would soon be in demand.
But believe the Pullman company
never makes any difference in the
charges. Chicago Tribune.

stanlcy's Peculiar Views.

The great explorer Stanley has some
peculiar views on the subject of woman
" characteristics which will doubtless
be quite as interesting to the average
reader as the report of his latest explora-
tions. According to letter written by
him just before his last departure, and
published in The Woman's Cycle, he
seems to prefer encountering a Jungle
tiger or Kaffir warrior dressed in q
string OF beads to meeting soft voiced,
tender faced woman, for, as he expresses
it, "Women appear to me so soft, so
very unlike (at least what l have SEEM
the rude type of mankind, that one soon
feels when talking to them that he must
soften his speech and drawl or affect q
singular articulation lest offense be
taken where none was intended. Hence
men are seldom sincere to women.
II am absolutely uncomfortable when
speaking to woman unless she is such
rare one that she will let mo hear some
common sense. The fact is, can't
talk to women. In their presence am
just as much of a hypocrite as any other
man, and it gals me that must act and
be affected and parody myself for no
other reason but because think, with
other men, that to speak or act other
wise would not be appreciated. It is
such a false position that do not care
to put myself into it."
Stanley is quite traveller, but there
is an undiscovered country he has never
explored, whose labyrinth he has never
threaded, whose mystical, intricate river
courses he has never traced, whose
mountains of inspiration and valleys of
despair he has never measured, and
which might prove as difficult of in
vasion, as wonderful in revelation as
the interior of the Dark Continent, and
that is the heart of a woman, for he says
further: "For the life of mo cannot sit
still q moment when anything approach
ing to love comes on the tapis." One
woman friend only has this peculiar man
of fame to whom he can speak, for "af-
ter the first few minutes of strangeness
have gone she soon lets you know that
chaff won't do" and he concludes his
singular letter by sending to this friend a
message: "Please say hearty friend
wishes her daily enjoyment of her life.'

LIZARDS THAT LOVE MUSIC.
They Followed a Whistling Student Unit

They Followed Whistling Student Until
Scared OF by a Peasant.
AS is well known, lizards of all colors
and sizes abound in Italy. They lie bask-
ing on all the stones, they run along all
the walls, they peep out at every chink
and crevice; but as soon as they hear the
faintest noise they disappear with light
ming speed, and it is hard to see them
near and to observe them closely. Walk
ing carelessly and noticing the dear little
animals, darting now here, now there, l
remembered the Greek statue of Apollo
Sauroktonos, who is always represented
as busted with a lizard-Apollo, god of
the sun and of music.
"Suppose I try," thought, and softly,
quite softly, I began to whistle dreamy
old German air, and behold! lizard lies
still as though rooted to the spot, raising
its little head in a listening attitude and
looking at me with his sharp little eyes.
Without stirring I continued my melody.
The lizard came nearer and nearer, and
at last approached quite close, always
listening and forgetting all his fears. AS
soon, however, as the whistler made the
slightest movement it vanished into some
crevice, but to peep forth again a mo.
ment after and to listen once more, as

A Great Question Settled.

At the high school, in tho first class,
an interesting debate was had on the
subject, els the Mind of Woman Inferior
to That of Man?" Andrew M. Bush, Jr.,
and Harry Macomber took the afflrnfa-
tive side of the question and Miss Julia
Hunt and Miss Edna Tobey the negative
side. The girls argued that the most
temperance work is being done by wom-
'en. The boys replied that all the greatest
temperance lecturers were men. To this
the girls retorted that it was easier to
talk than to work. The boys remarked
that the average weight of mans brain
was greater than that of woman's "A
FOOLS brain weighs more than wise
mans" was the answer of the girls. "But
we said the average weight" replied the
boys. A girl said: 81 think quality
should be considered rather than guam
tity." The clincher came when one of
the boys aroao and said: Gas under
stand it, God Is man, and if the mind
Of woman is superior to man God would
have been a woman" At this climax
vote was taken>and favored the affirma-
tive side.-New Bedford Standard.

The shah's Cat Show.

A funny incident is related by an At
lanta lady who has just returned from
Europe. The shah of Persia was passing
through the mountains of England while
she was there. With him lie had his IA
vorite pet, a lovely cat, who was being
transported in satin lined basket, as be-
came her royal catship. When a lonely
pass was reached, Miss Pussy, happening
to thrust her head out of the basket, es-
pied cat walking along, who belonged
to lonely hut near by. Out jumped the
cat, and away she went, and, although
many hours were spent in pursuit of her,
she never was found. The shah offered
$4,000 for her recovery, but she was not
recovered. Upon reaching the nearest
town of note he ordered that cat show
be given, to which all the cats in the
neighborhood were hidden. A prize of
$4,000 was again offered for the finest
cat, but among the hundreds of cats ex.
hibited pussy's dear familiar face was
never seen,-Atlanta journal,

plays just as well as can possibly be done
with hands and fingers, and all the OK

But nevertheless it is not the skilled
pianist with intelligent fingers and SYM
pathetic face who is producing the
music, and one listens to it with a dis
tinct feeling that something is lacking.
One wants to see the person who is max.

will be used largely in concerts, where
several pianos are needed and good time
