A Circular Rainbow.

Many of the best scientists and
philosophers declare that circular
rainbow is one of the impossibilities,
and give learned reasons in support of
their opinions. About two years ago
this idea was exploded by DIR. Fleming,
who observed and made scientific notes
of one he saw in the Welch mountains.
He says: ION September 80, 1890, we
mounted Finsterrehorn, and while
near the top of the peak were treated
to the rare sight of a circular rainbow,
the phenomena lasting about half an
hour, and forming complete circle.
A second circle was also
visible We were near the summit of
the peak when tn. first of the party
observed it, and from that point the
face of the mountain is almost perpen-
dicular, giving splendid view.

willing to Pay.

When the subject of doctors fees is men,
toned, well known physician likes to tell
the story of young man who was very i'll
and very poor, to whom he gave unremit-
ting care and finally nursed back to health
Before he had recovered his strength he
dragged himself feebly to the doctors Of

that he had nothing but thanks with which
to repay the debt

he said whimsically, Il am too busy a man
to take lessons on the flute, but suppose
you make yourself comfortable here in the
office while go my rounds and blow out
the amount you think you owe me"
The young man, who appears to have
been of a literal turn of mind, actually took
his beloved flute from its bag and was
about to begin the payment when he
caught the doctors expression and saw that
the suggestion was made in joke.
He seemed so oppressed with gratitude
and anxious to do something" says the
doctor, in telling the story, that l let him
play at entertainment for some poor
children not long after, and if flute playing
has any value he certainly blew out the en-

The Basin of a Fountain Turned Into q

Talk about the vagaries of mad
King Ludwig and others of his tribe, -
said traveller. "I've got the history
of a fellow that throws all the others
in the shade. His special hobby was
liquor and he dispensed it to his guests
with iberality that makes the words
lavish and eytravagant appear side by
side with close-fsted, mean, stingy,
penurious and the rest of them. He
was an English lord and thrived dur
ing the reign of King William III. On
one occasion he gave a fete at his
country place. In making prepare
tions for his guests he found that there
wasn't punch bowl in all England
that would fill the bill He thought
about the matter for awhile and then
put himself on record as having the
largest punch bowl in the world. 1t
was the basin of big fountain in his
garden, at the intersection of four
walks.
"All the walks were arched with
wide-spreading trees Tables lined
every walk, and were loaded with all
the delicacies that money could buy.

A Slang TERMS Origin.

The following is suggested as the
origin of the phrase to chaff a person.
Apollo, we are told, received from a
painstaking critic a volume filled with
the errors of the great poets BY way
of reward for such bootless labor, the
god of poetry gave him bushel of
wheat to sort, bidding him to select
the corn from the chaff. When this
was done, Apollo presented the critic
with the chaff, but retained the wheat;
thus chatting him, and making game of
him.

all immigration as an evil and to think
that the foreigners who are likely to

whom il would be better to keep out
altogether, may be commended to a
little observation of the Hebrew colony
in southern New Jersey. This is one
of the colonies established through the
munificence of Baron Hirseh, and il is
now on the high road to success, which
is bringing proportionate benefit to the
surrounding country. Under the SUI

of Hebrew refugees is due to the care
with which the committee selected the

In miniature, of course, but they are so
carefully modelled after the originals
that they afford an accurate study of
the building methods of a historic race.
Five models of as many famous
pueblos Of Arizona and New Mexico
occupy space in the main corridor of
the building. The stone aud adobe
dwellings of the sedentary tribes
which of all the Indians reached the
highest mark of civilization are shown
as they stand to-day. These sedentary
tribes, so called in distinction from the
nomadic tribes, lived in that part OF
the continent which is now included
by the territories of New Mexico and
Arizona. The very fact of the situa-
ton of the pueblos signifies a great
deal to a student of etbnology. The
advancement of the savage to y
state where tribe lived together all
the time within the walls of city and
could be found at home at any time by
a band of hostile Indians is in a
measure accounted for BY the prox-
unity to the domains of the great
Aztecs The range of the civilization
of the ancient inhabitants of Mexico
was as far reaching as it was potent.
One of the most remarkable of the
pueblos is that OF Bonito in the canyon
of Chaco in New Mexico. This home of
the Indian was built in the shape OF
half circle and faced out on a yawning
ehasrti. The high walls of the houses
facing TO the rear served the double
purpose of forti6cation against
enemies and protection against the
elements. The buildings were all of
stone and the masonry of the tribe.

The Oranr Eating.

Anyone who hasn't seen the Jaw
anese orang-outang taking his meals
has treat before him. The monkey
is such an homogeneous travesty on the
human race that watching him is well
worth while any time. But at mea Is
he comes out unusually strong, and the
whimsical resem blance to humanity is
so striking that the other day a visitor
who had been fascinated by his all but
human conduct turned away finally
with the remark ''Well, all he needs
is shave and pair of trousers" At
noon every day the Javanese who has
him in charge brings him large tu-
reen of boiled rice. which is fed 10 him
with tablespoon. or, rather, fed into
him. for the whole spoon disappears in
his capacious mouth and comes out
each time as clean as if it had been
scrubbed
