Distinctions Made in Omcial Titles by
Pine Tree State Etiquette.
There is a form of official etiquette
from the secretary of states office
which is unlike that followed in any of
the New England states. According
to the rulings of the secretary-and he
is simply carrying out the traditions of
his predecessors since Maine became a
state in 1s20-the judges of the supreme
and superior courts, the members of the
governors council, the senator's, the
heads of all the departments and the
mayors of Names cities nave their mail
addressed to them with the word Hon
orable" prefxed to the name in every
case, while the members of the house Of
representatives, the judges of the mu-
nicipal courts in the cities-whose sal
aries in some cases exceed that paid to
the governor-and all minor officehold-
ers must content themselves with the
term esquire" following their names.
AS for the governor, he is always adj
dressed as His Excellency."
Other New England states-Massa-
chusetts and New Hampshire in partic-
ular-are more liberal in the distribu-
ton of titles, for they prefix Hon
orable" TO municipal judges, repre-.
sentatives and aldermen in the various
cities. 1t is probable hat Maine is the
only state where a municipal judge can
be addressed verbally as "Your Honor"
but is not entitled to the prefix of THE

eRAco-E0YPTIAN PARTING.

Process by Which Very Remarkable Por-
traits Were Done.
The remarkable series of portraits
found in Egypt are described in the
Monthly Illustrator and the methods
the old artists employed.
The methods of these ancient days
were totally different from those of the
present day and were evidently vastly
more durable. Panels of wood were
used to paint e~n-sycamore and cypress
also panels of papier mache, and oc-
casionally they were formed by gluing
three t~hicknesses of canvas together.
These panels were usually about IA
inches long by { inches wide. The
artist used liquid wax instead of oil to
mix the colors, which were made not
from vegetable, but from mineral SUBJ
stances, and were of marvellous bril-
liancy and permanence-blue pow
dered lapis lazuli, green malachite, red
oxide of iron, etc. The colors were laid
on in patches, somewhat after the fash
ion of a mosaic, and afterwards blended
with an instrument called the cestrum,
which appears to have been u lancet
shaped spatula. long-handled, with at
n end q curved point, at the other a
finely dentated edge. With the toothed
edge the wax could be equalized and
smoothed. while the point was Used for
placing high lights, marking lips, eye
brows, etc.
The final process, which gives the
name ~encaustic to this kind of paint
ing, was the burning in of the colors.
This was done by the application of q
heated surface to the panel, though
Georg Ebers believes hat in Egypt the
heat of the sun was probably all that
needed to complete the artists

TESTING A WATCH.
Nnrr.c4naaa and RaruIa-l

English Timspieces Tried as to Their
CORRECTNESS and Regularity.
There has been matchmaking at
Coventry as long as there has been n
watch trade in England, which is for
the last 200 years or whereabouts, says
the Jewellers Review. There used to
be three centeres of the English trade,
these being Liverpool, Coventry and
London; now there are practically but
two, Coventry and Birmingham. The
test of a good watch is hat it should
obtain a Kew certificate, and of the
watches that go to Kew rs per cent. are
from Coventry.
At Kew no watch has yet succeeded
in getting the hundred marks which
signify perfection, but Coventry has
come nearest, with 92, and is always
well to the front. The Kew test is no
light one The watch is tested in every
position, and its rate registered, not
only per day, but per hour; it is hung
by its pendant, hung upside down,
hung on each side, placed dial down and
back down and atany number OF angles,
and to finish up with is baked in an oven
and frozen in an ice pail. No wonder
a comfort to its owner.
When it is considered that it makes
$4,000 vibrations an hour and must not
vary a second a week, while a quarter
turn of its two time screws, meaning
the millionth of an inch, will make a
difference of 20 seconds q day, the deli
cacy of its adjustment will be appre-
ciated, as will also the risk of intrust-
ing its repair to any but skillful hands.

THE r r PIGEON.

kn Explorers Wife Cheered by the Mss-
sage That It Brought,
One day a wonderful bird tapped at
the window of Mrs. Nansen's house at
Christiana. Instantly the window was
opened and b wife of the famous arctic
explorer In another moment covered
the little messenger with kisses and
caresses. says the Philadelphia Times.
The carrier pigeon had been away from
the cottage 80 long months, but it had
not forgotten the way home. 1t brought
q note from Nansen stating that all wa
going on well with him and his expedi-
ton IN the polar regions. Nansen had
fastened a message to o carrier pigeon
and turned the bird loose. The frail
courier darted out into the blizzardly
sill, 1t few like an arrow over 1000
miles of frozen waste and then sped for
ward over another 1000 miles OF ocean
and plains and forests, and one morning
entered the window of the waiting mis-
tress and delivered the message which
she had been awaiting so ~anxiously. We
boast of human pluck, sagacity and en-
duFance, but this loving little carrier
pigeon, in its homeward flight, after an
absence of 80 months, accomplished a
feat sc wonderful that we can only give
ourselves up to the amazement and adj
miratioH which must overwhelm every
one when the marvellous story is told.
Mrs. Eansen's pigeon is one Of the won
ders of the world.

-Four Whom MI. G~oslington Has Met More
or Less Lately.
"In O big city, said Mr.. Goslington,
"'you see all sorts of men on horseback.
It is q common thing to see truckmen
riding, mounted on one horse and it
may be leading another, going to the
harness makers, perhaps, or the horse
shoer's; riding without a saddle, and
very likely without a blanket, but with
q seat that many q more deliberately pro-
vided horseman might envy.
"You see occasionally q fireman on
horseback, taking a horse to b horse
shoer's- He rides always without a sad
die and almost invariably without a
blanket. He wears a uniform, and he
sits up straight, like a soldier-he
makes a pretty p~rim-looking figure on
horseback; he is almost certain to be a
very good rider.
Yesterday 1 saw something L had
W seen before-a painter on horse
back. You often see the painters
wagon, loaded with ladders and pots and
cans of paint, M with two or three or
more men in paint-covered overalls and
jackets; but this was just the horse
with a painter on his back. Where he
was going, or what it all meant, I
couldn't even imagine.
Later, yesterday, I met one man in
the saddle. Walking down Riverside
drive after nightfall to get a little air
and exercise before dinner, and watch
ing meanwhile the new moon hanging
low w the river, I heard the hoof-
beats of a horse coming up along the
bride path. Presently horse and rider
came into view; man singing, horse
keeping time with his hoofs; and so
they disappeared.

He was tattered and torn as he
knocked at the side door of a hospitable
uptown mansion, and stood shiyering
in the cold November blast that almost
swept him from his feet. A benevolent
looking woman opened the door and
listened with Il pensive smile to his
plea for some cast-off clothing. says
the Detroit Free Press.
Poor fellow" she said, in kindly
tones; "stay there and | will see what

and she closed the doc in his face.
After a long time she iSaEpcared with
