seems that young John Adams was a
rather imperious, self-conceited sort OF
fellow, possessed, however, of a great
deal more than ordinary ability, and
that he insulted man named Jarvis
at one of the white house receptions.
Jarvis sent note challenging the
young man, but he declined to pay Ally
attention to it. About a month later,
when John Adams went to the capitol
to deliver messages from the president
to each house of congress, after having
delivered that which was addressed to
the speaker of the house, as he was go
ing through the rotunda to the senate
he was overtaken by Mr.. Jarvis, who
pulled his nose and slapped his face.
Although President Adams notified
congress of the insult which was of
fered to his special messenger. nothing
ever came of it.

for meetings in Florida. and about IA
years ago at one of the big meetings
there was dog fight, from which all
other events date in that section since
that time. The citizens there will tell

ETIQUETTE OF THE DESERT.

Hosts Wife.
Social etiquette among the Arabs is
a factor in life to be considered serious
ly if you wish to live among them with
out friction. Its obligations are not to
be completely mastered in few
months. Sometimes when l have had
companions with me presumably thor
oughly au fait with all things Moham-
medan. the harmony of the occasion has
been seriously endangered by some
thoughtlessness or ignorance on their
part, which to the Moslem could APP
pear only as a contempuous want of
consideration. Thus, no greater insult
could be offered to an Arab than a
friendly inquiry as to the welfare of his
wife, to us natural civility, but to him,
gross impertinence bitterly resented.
On one occasion 1 nearly made a similar
blunder. l was invited by neighbor-
ing shiek to go over to see him, and was
on the point of riding up to his tent door
and dismounting there. Fortunately,
however, I recollected in time that ETH
quette demanded that should halt so
yards off, and call in a loud voice:

This gives time to bundle off any of
their womenkind who may be about,
preparatory to the admission of a
stranger. 1t is curious, also, to notice
that in spite of the real affection exist
ing between father and son. the sense
Of respect dominates all other feelings,
and the sons will never sit at meat with
their father in the presence of guest,
but will wait upon both until the father
rising, allows them the opportunity OF
breaking bread with their visitor.
Provided, however, that you recognize
their social customs, my experience has
proved the Bedouin to be genuine,
warm-hearted friends; and they really
become greatly attached to those whom
they know and who know them.-R.

MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS.

Genuine tartans, which word Mr..
Ssreat etymologically derives from the
French teretaine, are known and num-
bered, and, although doubts have been
east on the dates of their origin, are
of undeniable antiquity.
The region of the Landes, in
France, which so years ago was one of
the poorest and most miserable in that
country have been made one of
the most prosperous owing to the
planting of pines. The increased value
is estimated at 10000, 900 pounds ster-
ling.
In old times plum pottage" was
served on Christmas day. 1t was made
of chopped raisins, currants, prunes,
arc figs, spices, candied peel, and
bruised wheat, milk, butter, and eggs.
CT ad ually minced suet crept into it,
ard a stiff pudding was made. or pot
tage," as it was called then; and this
is very much like our indispensable
plum buildings of to-day.
The extreme height of full-grown
male giraffe may be put down at 10
feet, or trifle over, that of a mature
female at about II feet. These animals
are practically defenseless. When
brought to standstill they will chop
out dangerously with the fore feet if
approached too closely, and occasion
ally among themselves they butt with
their heads, but otherwise they are
quite defenseless.
On the subject of Glacs being gen
orally neglected, Mr.. Step, in his Fa-
vcrite Flowers of Garden and Green
house, says: "Their numerous suck
ers are allowed to grow unchecked, and
consequently the elegant tree becomes
a shapeless bush, that flowers sparing
iy. The chief attention required is the
removal of these suckers and the dig
ging in of fresh soil from time to time
Tie waste of energy stopped, a main
trunk is formed, and the bush be-
comes a tree upon which, in spring
time, blossoms are more conspicuous
than leaves"
