the bath, materials for the fire toEaeat

soon as the waiter was sufficiently
heated the fire was put out, prayers
were said and a. hymn sung, tumploring
that the queen suffer no harm from
her daring act, and then as she disap-
peared behand the curtain q salvo of
artillery was fired and the drums beat
to announce ito the excitedmultitudes
outside THAT the Important part of
the ceremony was taking place. At
the end of a brief fifteen minutes the
queen reappeared, somewhat paler in
hue, but gorgeously arrayed and wear
Ing all the crown jewels. In her hand
she carried an OK horn, tipped and
bound wsth silver, full ofwater taken
from the bath just previous to her

Curlously Addressed Letter.

a curiously addressed letter lately
passed through the postofiice at
Madrid, which was deciphered and
correctly delivered, Notwithstanding
all difficulties. The address was a
perfect rebus. At the left hand side
was the figure OF a lady; it was clear,
therefore, to which sex the recipient
should belong. Over the lady's head
the sun was rising, hence her name
was inferred to be Aurora. For her
surname stood a hill with castle at
its foot which gives us "Montesty
Castillo" Next comes the town, for
which the plan Of a city was drawn,
on which the Alhambra was legible.
This indicated Granada, but in order
to leave no doubt possible, a pome-
granate was drawn beside the plan.
TO complete the address a number
was indicated in one of the streets OF
the city plan. The postal authorities
Sook three days to study this curiosity
and then triumphantly delivered the
letter to sSenorita Aurora Montesty
Castillo, Azacayas, No. 20, Granada"
and SO far from censuring the sender,
they had the envelope photographed
and a copy printed in the Madrid
papers as a proof of the intelligence of
the department. Detroit Free Press.

HOW TO RIDE a BICYCLE.
Advice About Training for Younh
Amateurs.

AovlCe ABOUT framing Tor GUNS
Amateurs.
There was a time when bicycling
was engaged in by only those who
were supposed to have plenty OF leis-
ure time, but the great increase in the
number Of riders all over the world
shows that many indulge in the past
time who must consider that the in
diligence is worth some inconvenience.
The average amateur can afford
neither the time nor the inconvenience
to train the way professional would.
The ideal training is the kind that is
taken with no special object in view,
for there is no fear then of it's being
overdone.
Ii the novice works hard during the
day at his business, and feels like keep
ing quiet when he arrives home, it
would be a mistake to force upon him
self a jaunt through the country for his
energy has been spent in other ways.
II, however, he has simply feeling of
lassltude and not a, genuine fatigue,
bicycle ride in fine weather cannot
fail to act as a tonic to his muscular
and nervous systems. To keep ones
self in good condition slight indis-
position to exercise must not be taken
for a true tired feeling. Beneficial
training for bicycle riding is the same
as preparing for any other athletic
work. The nerves and the muscles
must be built up. Every man starts
with a certain quantity of each, and if
he wishes to add to his supply he
should not waste his capital by tax
ing hard practice, but should only let
out enough to attract more. Grow
ing strong and activeis merely cultivat-
ing the muscles so far as the nervous
system will permit, or so that both
that and the muscular system are
equal to each other.
Bicycling is a very easy exercise in
which to become expert. The advent
OF the safety machine has made road
riding during the last several years
more popular than ever. One can
easily learn to ride safety by having
some friend hold the machine and give
him start, but a level place must be
selected while learning to mount and
ride.
1t is generally acknowledged that BIZ
cycling is one of the most enjoyable of
sports. A would-be sprinter or Jump
er must be born with a certain amount
of snap and dash or he cannot sue
coed, but a bicyclist, even if he does
not at first possess any great strength
OF leg, can persevere in his building-up
process until his lower limbs of iron
will push his wheel under the wire

The Story of a Little Girl.

A while ago a little girl was lost in
New Yorlz, and to the editors of a
great pager came an appeal for help
in finding her.
We'll get up a picture to show
everybody how she looks" said the
editor, who has soft spot in his
heart for lost children. So a reporter
was sent out, but presently returned
to report that he could get no photo
graph of the girl, but that she was
small Of 21er age, always stood with
her feet close together, had blue eyes,
and wore a Nelly Bly, peaked cap.
Now get up a nice picture" said
the editor, and the rtist was puzzled,
as well he might be, fog the facts that
the girl had blue eyes and was small
OF her age were of no use in a black
and white drawing, and he had only
the feet ard the cap to work upon.
However, ne did the best he could and
drew picture OF a real mice little girl.
The resemblance was rem arkable.
Everybody said so. The mother OF
the little girl came in to thank the ar
fist and the editor, with tears in her
eyes, after the girl had been found,
and modern journalism entered an
other splendid triumph on its notched
stick.

Tricks of French Artists,

"A French paper says that for two
months Of the year the chief business
of the two thousand and odd ex-
hjhftors at the Salon is to ATTRACT
the attention of visitors to their own
pictures. Some of the "dodges" which
have been found useful for the purpose,
it seems, are highly ingenious. The
plan found most effeetual, and
therefore most commonly employed,
is THE Yankee Amateur DODGE
Itconsists of employing two or three
agents, dressed in an eccentric fashion
to walk backwards and forwards
with mysterious air. The public is
greatly sawed by their appearance
and reports are soon circulated that
the picture will be sold for it's weight
in gold.
Another highly recommended plan
is to hire the best-looking model
introduced into the picture to walk
backwards and forwards in front
of the canvas. The identity is
soon discovered, and great sensation
is the consequence. A few years ago a
painter found out a still more original
plan. He placed some resinous SUBJ
stance, which would grow soft with
warmth, in front OF his. own picture.
The unfortuna person who happened
to stop for a, few minutes would find
himself fixed to the spot for some time.
Our authority thinks this last method
the most businessike and efeetual,
