The Fighting Swiss.

The year 1919 saw the Swiss mercena-
ries at the zenith of their power, when
waving Austria and France alike away
from Milan, they installed therein the
ruler of their own choice. In the same
year they met the Landsknechts at the
passage of the Oglio and Ticino, and,
fording the rivers stark naked, beat
them back without waiting even to
dress themselves. A few months later
they showed even more magnificent in
science when besieged by the French in
Novara; throwing the gates open, they
begged the enemy not to be at the pains
of making breach, but to walk straight
in, "Donnez-vous done la peine den
trer." The French made no reply, ex-
oept to hammer away with their artil.
lery, whereupon the Swiss mockingly
hung the breaches with sheets as suffi-
cient protection against so feeble foe.
Shortly after arrived re-enforcements
from Switzerland. which, without paus-
ing TO rest more than an hour after @
long and hurried march, dashed out In
disorder against the encompassing troops
and dispersed them with terrible loss.
"If we could only reckon upon obedi'
ence in our men, said the Swiss lead
ers, 1--WE should march through the
whole of France. Macmillan 3 Maya

veeetarians Use Fieshiy Names.

Vegetarian restaurants are by degrees
giving up the use of such titles for their
dishes as convey the idea of meat diet,
but they still find the word "steak"
Indispensable. Otherwise their bill of
fare is much improved and Of more
inviting character than it used to be.
"Indian broth" reads we'll ON q cold
December day, and "braised onion with
tomatoes" appeals to many. But what
is vegetable turkey?"
1t seems tD be rather a confession Of
weakness to be dependent on the animal
world for names wherewith to invest
the various preparations of vegetables,
cereals and fruits. To America they owe
many forms Of succulent and tempting
food, such as fried corn, maize with
plums and pineapple pudding made from
the timed fruit. The use of cheese, for
hidden by some of the strictest follow
ers of vegetarianism, enables the cater
ers to offer such savory dishes as welsh
rabbit, cheese fritters and custards, and
the odors that are emitted are Of the
most savory and appetizing description.

A Danser In Kurdistan.

The performers had already drawn
themselves up i'll line when / arrived,
and q minute later the shrill notes Of
the pipe gave the signal for the dancing
to commence Some score Of young
men and women stood shoulder to shoul-
der, clasping hands, the line forming a
crescent. At the given signal, the clap
ping of his hands by youth who stood
in front Of the semicircle Of performers,
the dance commenced, the entire line Of
men and women stepping slowly for
ward and then back again, each pace
being taken a little to the right, so that
a rotating movement was given to the
string of dancers. As the music quick
ened so did the pace, and at each step
the body from the waist upward was
bent forward and drawn back. Nor were
the steps themselves the same, for the
youth who gave them time ran up and
down the line clapping his hands and
singing and shouting directions and
changes
The principal feature of the dance
seemed to be the bringing down Of the
right foot smartly upon the ground at
intervals, when, hand in hand, the
whole company remained with their
bodies bent for a second or two, to spring
back into position again at fresh blow
of the pipes. Meanwhile the slow rotat-
ing movement was maintained, so that
the entire body was circling round the
musicians. What laughter and fun
there were Men and girls giving them
selves up to the enjoyment of their ma
tional dance, which, graceful and exhil-
arating, bore no trace of the sensual
movements which usually mark the art
of dancing in the east. .-Blackwood's

Huxley's Wife.

When the Rattlesnake was in Sydney
harbor, the officers were invited to a
ball, and young Huxley among the
number. There for the first time he
met his future wife, whose parents re-
sided at Sydney. A few days after they
were engaged, and the ship sailed for
the Tower straits to complete the survey
Of the north coast of Australia, all com.
munication being cut off for months at
3 time, and then she returned direct to
England. After that brief acquaintance
(not, I believe, longer than fortnight)
it was seven years kefore tho lovers saw
one another. At the end-of this time,
on Huxley's appointment to the School
of Mines, he was in position to claim
his bride and welcome her to their first
home in st. Johns Wood. He often
used to say that to engage the affections
Of a young girl under these circum-
stances, knowing that he would have to
leave her for an indefinite time, and
with only the remotest prospect of ever
marrying, was an act most strongly to
be reprobated, and he often held it out
as a warning to his children never to do
anything of the kind, and yet they all
married young and all happily.
Huxley's love at first sight and con-
stancy during those seven long years of
separation were richly rewarded, for it
is impossible to imagine pair more
thoroughly suited. - North American

Ingenuity a la BordeIaise.

At Bordeaux recently wine mer-
chant, whose business success was about
in keeping with the bad quality of his
wares, decided on bold stroke, Every
day he assiduously sought out com
plete list of deaths of the we'll to do in
the town, and also the date and hour of
the funeral. He then wrote letter to
the deceased, thanking him for the or
der he had received, and at the very
hour that the relatives were assembled
at the house for the funeral his dray
arrived with quantity of wines and
spirits. The bill was always paid, no
one suspecting that he was being made
the victim of an ingenious trick and
quite convinced that the dead relative
had given the order. .-Galignani Mes

An Error About Cats,

An error about cats, and truly vul-
gar one, is that they lie ou young chill
dren's breasts and suck their breath or
suffocate them. Cats like to lie on the
breast of person they love, and are apt
to show their happiness by now and
then lifting their heads for a kiss or
gently touching the face or neck above
them with their paw; this sort of pat
ting or stroking a beloved cheek or
throat is on9 Of the more human habits
which dogs have not, Seeing one Of our
cats lying on her masters chest when
he was asleep on the sofa, understood
how the notion had taken root; then,
too, cats are luxurious and fond of
warmth, and may sometimes share a
baby's crib or cradle for that reason, as
dogs certainly do.-Temple Bar.

Views Of America
Sir Walter Besant, in commenting ON
Mr.. Hall Caine's views of America and
published in The Daily Chronicle, says
"We don't know the American people in
this country, and we ought to know
them; they come over here by the thou
sand, by the hundred thousand, and we
do nothing to entertain them or to make
their acquaintance, or to show them
that we should like to know them, Are
we ashamed of ourselves-of our homes
of our women, especially-ihat we do
not want to show ourselves tot I'M? We
have no reason to be ashamed.
"The English woman is not so intel
lectually cultivated as the American,
but she need moi fear comparison. AS
for the people generally, am right glad
to soc Hall Caine proclaining the truth
about them-that is, that they are al
most childlike in their singleness of
heart, easily moved by simple things,
the youngest minded and the youngest
hearted people in the world.
