Magical Finger Rings.

Finger rings have played more impor- tant part in history than any other orna- ments They were formerly symbols of authority, and subordinates were often in- vested with temporary power by the loan of the masters ring. We have examples of this in the case of Pharaoh, Ahasuerus and many others, ip both sacred and pro. fane history. Rings were at one time sup posed to possess magical powers, and Plato tells us that Gyges owned ring that would at his pleasure render him invisi- ble while from another source we learn of the wonderful ring with which Solomon sealed the jars in which the disobedient jiune were immured before being dropped into the sea.

The AIilitery Salute.

The military salute required in almost Ill civilized countries is nearly tho same. Perhaps in Germany, however, tho regu- iations are somewhat more stringent A soldier on meeting tho emperor has to stand still, face about and rcmain wiih hand raised for from 1e to 90 paces before his majesty approaches and for the samo distance after he has passed. In Belgium an officer has to do the same thing for tho king and subalterns for generals though ten paccs only arc required for the latt,r easo Soldiers carrying anything so that their hands are quite occupied salute with their eyes-that is, they turn their heads in the direction of the person coming and going. French officers raise their caps to each other, but the privates do as the pri- yates in othor armies do.-London Stand ard.

4 Story of sIendeIssohn.

It is related of Mendelssohn at public dinner, nt which ladies were present, and where he was surrounded by chorus of aggressive women clamoring for his auto- graph, that he allowed himself to be vic timizod with good nature until finally a feshy matron of mature years handed him her card. Whether with malice prepense or not, it is not stated, but the composer wrote upon the card the music and words from Haydn's Creation. And God created great whales" This brought the autograph hunting to an end, and Lien delssohn was allowed 10 go on with his dinner. Francisco Argonaut.
