"Please, sir, will you give me centsg'
"Give you centsi' echoed the young
man in surprise, for his applicant was a
pretty, refined looking little girl of about
10 summers, whose clothing looked as
though she were child of fortune, not
of want.
Eyes, sir. l want it to pay my car
fare with. / lost the nickel mamma
gave me-" OF course the young man
gladly gave the girl the desired cents,
and she fairly beamed upon him. The
incident happened at Broad and Chest
nut street. Not long after the young
man was waiting for car on Walnut
street, and it so happened that he was
thinking of the pretty face of the child.
"Well," unused he to himself, "Pm
glad ] happened to be there in time
Some parents are awfully careless oi
their children, though. Think of the
little thing having to ask for money. It'll
shame"
There came a slight pull at his coa'
sleeve. Then sweet, weak voice tha'
seemed familiar said, please, sir, viii
you give me 0 centsP
The young man turned asif stung. H,
could hardly believe his own eyes. "Yol
see, sir"-began the sweet voice again.
''Yes, know all about it. You los
the money your mother gave you for ca
fare"
1t never phased the little one. Sh,
smiled divinely and answered, Eyes, hov

had caught passing car, and the lool
on his face set several of the passenger

Once in awhile meteor plunging in
to the atmosphere of the earth is neither
consumed by the heat developed through
friction nor precipitated upon the surface
of the globe, but pursues its way out
into open space again.
Its brief career within human ken may
be compared to that of comet travelling
in aparabolic orbit, which, as if yielding
to headlong curiosity, almost plunges
into the sun and then hastens away
again, never to return.
In July, 1892, one of these escaping
meteors was seen in Austria and Italy.
Careful computations based upon the
observations which were made in vari-
ous places have shown that it was visi-
BILE along q track in the upper air about
$50 miles in length. When at its nearest
point to the earth, it was elevated az
miles above the surface.
From this point it receded from the
earth, its elevation when last seen being
no less than 0S miles.
Although the resistance of the atmos-
phere was not sufficient to destroy the
motion Of this strange visitor, which con-
tented itself with so brief a glimpse Of
our globe, yet it carried the effects Of
that resistance out into space with II
and can never shake them off.
No matter what its previous course
may have been, the retardation that II
suffered during its passage through the
air sufflced to turn it into different di
rection and to send it along another
path than that which it had been follow

Peacocks' feathers have been handed
down to US from the ancient days Of
mythology as emblematical Of treachery,
evil and misfortune. The origin OF this
strange superstition is founded upon the
following classical story; Osiris, king
Of Egypt, upon starting on his Indian e1-
pedition, left his queen, Isis, regent, with
Argus, his minister, as her chief adviser.
Argus, with his hundred eyes, or rather
his spies, soon made himself so formi-
dable and powerful that he seized the
queen regent, shut her up in a strong
castle and proclaimed himself king Of
Egypt. Mercury was sent against him
with a strong army, took him captive
and cut of his head, whereupon Juno
metamorphosed him into peacock and
set his spies in his tail From this legend
and the various additions made to it
from time to time the belief has arisen
thatit is unlucky to have peacocks' feath-
ers inside house, Brooklyn Eagle.

In a recent lecture on Turkey" Mr..
Oscar f. Straus. eN-minister Of the Unit
ed States to that country, threw some in
teresting light upon n most interesting
phase of Turkish life-the harem. The
lecturer admitted that his knowledge
came entirely from hearsay. He had
never been in one and had never known
diplomat who had. He pronounced the
institution not altogether unattractive.
Turkish women are not secluded in the
harem as in a prison. They are abso-
lutte mistresses of that side of the house
and free to exercise their rights indis-
putably. A Turkish husband would not
dare to enter his wifo's apartments when
it is not her pleasure that he should, and
she has only to place her slippers outside
the door to indicate such desire for So
clusion. In many ways the oriental
wife makes her caprices felt, and her
spouse can only submit with what grace
he may, like his occidental brother.
The right to divorce is vested with the
husband, but the divorcee retires with
all her property to her family and may
marry again at once. And this right tc
hold property separately from their hus-
bands which English and American won.
en- have only lately acquired has beer
the privilege of the Turkish wife for O
thousand years.
