An Ancient Copy of Parts of Iacharia and
Malachi on Papyrus Manuscript.
Among the rarities displayed to the re-
cent congress of Orientalists in London,
says the New York Evening Post, was
papyrus manuscript discovered a few
months ago in Egypt, which is supposed
by some authorities to be the oldest ex-

about ten inches high and seven inches
wide, each containing twenty-e ght
lines of writing, both sides of the sheet
being used. The complete line contains
from fourteen to seventeen letters. The
sheets are bound together in the form
OF book in primitive though careful
manner with cords and strips Of old
parchment.
The Greek of this document is written
without intervals between the words
a custom observed both in old Greek
and old Hebrew manuscripts. The
papyrus is in fair preservation and is
believed to date from the third
or fourth century. Experts are in

original of the Septuagint Bible, which

An American Who Was Mistaken for a
German ia Iaris.

A Boston lawyer, recalling some In
cidents of travel ION the other side"
twenty years ago, says that he may
have owed his life to police surveillance
in France, according to the New York
Sun. Said he: "It was in Paris, just
after the outbreak of the Franco-Prus-
sian war, when Paris was a most un-
healthy place for a German to be in. |
then wore yellow mustache, and, my
eyes being blue and my complexion

day on the street groupof soldiers saw
me, and, after short discussion, they
came after me on run. My French
was pretty queer, | imagine, in those
days,and could not make them under

They were armed and determined. and
were hustling me on at lively pace,
somewhere, that might have proved a
very unhealthy place for me. just as l

OWNED NO SOCIAL SUPERIOR.
The Early New England Farmer.Not Like
His Prototype OF the Present Day.


His Prototype OF the Present Day.
The first most forcefnl and most con-
spicuous social fact ir the early New
England community, where almost
everybody was farmer, was the level
ing of the class distinction. The soil
tiller who owned his land might have
to toll for living like serf, but the
Yale Review says he never incurred the
serfs degradation. Around him and
on the same level the great mass of the
community were his fellow farmers,
whom he never gazed upon from below,
either as matter of social rank or
from the plane Of inferior vocation.
Slightly beneath him were the class of
farm laborers-not many, when wooded
lands were cheap, nor profoundly low
cred as a class, in days when farmers
themselves interchanged services and
toilcd even harder than their own field
hands. The country merchant was, un-
less exceptionally rich, the farmers
peer, no better and no worse, in the
social scale. Above the farmer stood
only the men of the professions, usually
college graduates, including the minis,
ter and the squirearchs. But these,
while they formed certain distinctive
cult" were too few to be very
strongly emphasized group or impress
the class distinction harshly. OF the
|. two most prominent, the minister, vest
ed with powers well-nigh pontihcal, yet
held them not of men; and the old
country squires, under the microscope
of time and New England novels, have
obtained in our day greatly magnified
Importance which they never really
possessed. If the farmer had to wrestle
hard with his niggard soils and had
slight education ana few creature COM
forts, he had, as offsets, simple wants,
social equality and an assertive man
hood. lie was in large sense the
civis Romanus of his time and place.

ALTAR OF ROSES.

Expense and Trouble Necessary for the
Production OF Single Pound.
Altar of roses is generally spoken of
as the most extravagantly COSBY per-
fume in the world, but when the trouble
and expense of raising the roses and
securing the essence is taken into acv
count it is really very rcase nable in
price, says the st. Louis Globe Demo.
erat. If the delicious perfume were
produced in this country and the lowest
wages in the land paid for labor it could
not be retailed at even three times the
existing prices. Nearly all the altar of
roses in the world comes from the por-
ton of Europe which used to be part
of Turkey, but which is now under Rus
sian influence To secure pound OF
essence it is necessary to have an entire
acre of ground covered with roses and
to have good crop even then, and then
the guilty Drs cannot rely on receiving
more tina seventy or seventy-fve dol
lars pc /.
The l;-Jor Of cultivation is very ar
duous, and pluclsing the roses is even
more so, the work being done by wom-
,en, whose hands are torn all to pieces
by the work, and whose pay barely suf-
fees to buy food Roses have been cul-
tivated in other countries for similar
purpose, but the return is nowhere so
large as in the neighborhood of the
Balkans, where the soil and climate ap-
pear exceptionally adapted for the pur-
pose. 1t may be added that the sweet
smell of a genuine Turkish cigarette is
the result of adulterating the tobacco
with the refuse from the rosebuds and
