A Bit Of Royal Fun.

According to story which is going
the round of the French press, the queen
OF Italy on New Years eve had a seri.
GUS conversation with her consort as to
the critical state of affairs. If things
go on as they have been doing of late, "
she is said to have exclaimed, I'VE shall
soon arrive at a revolution and then at
a republic" King Humble did his
best to laugh away her gloomy appre-
tensions, and next morning on present
ing himself to wish her majesty a hap
py New Year handed her his accustomed
gift in dainty casket on which was
fastened label thus inscribed: ITO the
Citizeness Margaret of Savoy, from the
Citizen Humbert Of Savoy" The
queen, so the story goes, was much de-
lighted at this bit Of playful and affec-
tionate raillery, which had the effect
OF restoring her to her wonted good
spirits.

Hints ON summer Dressing.

Growing girls do not need MANY
dresses at once. A pretty toilette fol
best, which may at this season be OF
wool crepon or of summer silk, and d
serviceable frock of serge or some other
strong wooden stuff for every day and
roughing occasions, will meet the re-
quirements Of ordinary life. A girl
should have besides these, for summer
one or two dainty ginghams simply
made, a half-dozen shirt waists, -four
Of linen or percale, and two Of silk,
and white gown either Of Swiss mus
lin or China silk. A sailor hat for
common use, wide brimmed picture
hat for very best, and jaunty little
toque will be enough in the way OF
covering for the head, and she will be
wise to have, if she can, several pairs
OF shoes 1t is economy to have dupli.
Gates of ones shoes and boots, as these
last much longer when frequently
changed and relieved. For trampinv
about the roads and hills one needs, As
also Tor the city promenade, an alb
solutely comfortable walking boot,
with broad soles, low heels and shape
that fits the foot to perfection Too
ioos- d shoe is as disagreeable and as
bad for the foot Of its wearer as one
which is too tight. A dress boot may
be OF cloth and patent-leather or Of soft
kid. Let me insist, girls. on your
keeping your boots in order, so far as
the buttons are concerned. Nothing
gives one such a careless appearance as
boot from which buttons have fallen.

Some years ago woodcock, tired and
weary with his long journey, fell ex.
hausted down from midair right into
the middle Of London. Nearly all birds
migrate at night, SO it was dark, as,
half stunned, he found himself lying In
Albemarle street. A woodcock' 3 first i'm.
pulse is always to hide himself, to steal
under something, to crouch down. In
nature wild he would choose some
bracken or some low shrub. Holly he
particularly loves, and there he would
nestle down and doze the hours away,
but here, poor bird, in rural PiccadiIly,
he could find mono Of these, and 20 he
finally nestled up to lamppost, and,
stunned and stupefied, he fell asleep
and was so found by tho early miIkman
on the next day.-Critic

Entering a Chinese lottery den, one
sees on the walls large representation
of lottery ticket beautifully engrossed,
and also large slips of paper. each slip
containing one of the so lottery charac-
tiers. When the drawing is to take
place. these slips are taken down, rolled
into pellets so as to conceal the writing
and then thrown into a pan. They are
there we'll mixed up and again taken
out and placed in four wooden bowls
marked l, 2, s, 4, 90 of these charac-
tiers being distributed equally among
the four bowls.
One Of these four bowls contains the
winning characters of the drawing.
Which is 1t to be? Again four pie:es
of paper. each printed with number,
!, ?, or 4, corresponding with the
number marked on the bowl, are rolled
up. thrown into box and shaken. A
disinterested person, sometimes little
child. is called in to draw out one of
these numbers. For this service he re-
ceives D cents for good luck. The paper
bearing the given number is straight
ened ont, the number read and the
bowl selected which corresponds with
the number. This, of course, contains
the winning 90 characters, and all the
other 90 characters in the three other
bowls are destroyed. The bowl chosen
is taken up, and one by one the charac-
tiers are unfolded. An assistant is sta
toned near the large lottery ticket hang
ing up, and as each character in the
bowl is read off the corresponding char
acter on the wall is marked. As soon
as the 90 lucky characters are called
out they are pasted on piece of paper
and hung up where every one can see
the drawing for that day.-San Fran

CEYLON TEA INDUSTRY.
Everything In Connection With the
Work IL Serupulogsly Clean.

Everything In Connection With the
Work IL serupuioYsiy Clean.
Some idea Of the extent Of the Ceylon
tea industry may be gathered when it
II remembered that to produce last
years crop Of reported tea no less than
$40, OO0, 900 Of pounds Of green leaves
were gathered from the plants and con-
veyed, for the most part on the backs
Of the pickers. to the factories for
manufacture. Last year there We're
about so, 500 acres of land in the ISL
and planted with the tea shrub, and
there is every prospect Of this acreage
being doubled within another ten
years.
The rise of this new industry has
had the most beneficial effect ON the
native population of the districts to
which as yet it is confined. TO where
one may in the tea country there is u
general air of prosperity. which ex-
tends both to places and people. As IA
rule the planters bungalows are mod
els Of neatness and Of that luxurious
comfort which nowhere seems to be
better understood than here. And even
among the natives Of the district the
pervading influence Of prosperity is
very apparent. OF course the wages
earned are enthusiastically small from
our point OF view-averaging certainly
not more than the equivalent Of five
cents a day, yet this as it is regular,
and as it allows of considerable pro-
portion Of each family becoming wage
carriers, il is to their class competency.
There seems also to be what might al
most be called moral side to the tea
business, which distinguishes it from
most other kidns Of labor in the fields.
From first to last the tea business is
scrupulOusly clean. The girls and
men, yes, even the old women, in the
tea fields are clean both in person and
clothing to degree not elsewhere to
be met with among native races en-
gagged in outdoor labor. The baskets
into which leaves are put when pulled
are also scrupulously clean, aud when
they arrive at the factory they are
handed over to operatives who are
even ostentatiously clean in appear
ance. The dark skins Of the men in
the whitening. weighing, ana packing
rooms are not more glossy in their
cleanliness than are those Of the girls
in the sorting department; and their
clothing, If somewhat scanty, is at any
rate model Of purity. All this is, of
course. matter of commercial policy,
but it is none the less a matter which
enters, and will more and more enter,
into the advancing civilization of the
people employed in one or other por-
ton OF the work. Weekly.
