How the Chelsea Sage Avoided Leads
ing In Family Prayers.
Mr.. A. Carlyle writes: "A much per-
verted account Of the following incident
has for years appeared at intervals in
newspapers. The story when correctly told
is not without interest and even hulnor
and Is very characteristic Of Carlyle. In
the autumn of 1874 Carlyle and his niece,
Miss M. G. Aitken, were visiting at the
house Of Mr. Patrick Swan, then provost
of Kirkoaldy and at date long anterior
pupil Of Carlyle. On the Sunday even
ing Mr.. Swan and his guests were assem-
bled after dinner in the drawing room,
and some one proposed that Carlyle should
read aloud for the entertainment of the
COMPANY rather large one. He readily
consented, and seeing the Bible lying on
the table he opened 1t at the beginning Of
Job, his favorite book.
mo sooner had he seized the Bible,
however, than in marched the servants one
after another, and Carlyle perceived that
be was, as 1t were, trapped into conduct
Ing family worship How to get out of the
dilommaf There seemed nothing for it
but to read and to keep on reading and to
await what time and chance might bring
Ho began with the first chapter of Job and
read chapter after chapter, making re-
marks now and again on striking passages
After this sentence, is there any taste in
the white of an cggs' he exclaimed, God
bless me, never knew that was In JobP
or I had quito forgotten that was In job
A little while after that bis niece came
forward to tho table, and touching his
arm whispered, 'Unole, do you not think
you have read enough for one nightP' He
gave her pleasant smile, but continued
reading and expounding. After two or
three more chapters had been overtaken
bis niece again came forward and said
quietly, Uncle, you really ought to stop,
you see, the servants are all In the room,
md they'll have work to do yet On this
being said, or whispered, to him he sud
denly rose, shut the book with emphasis,
saying loud enough for all to hear, Well,
II I'm not to DO allowed to read more,
suppose must STOP and walked out Of
the room with an air Of offended dignity.
On going to his room soon afterward his
niece found him laughing and rejoicing at
his happy escape. His first words to her
were: I hope, lass, thou's not offended
! could not see how else to get out Of it,"

1t Is well known that In England the
vegetarians are extremely numerous. They
have made a sort Of religion out Of their
diet and have built church Of their

no salvation. The London society Of vege.

less their excessive zeal that brought about
reaction and induced the roast beef eaters
to form themselves Into regular society.
According to DR.. Vigsford, there Is lit

MI. Frederick Gale, who was a habitus
II the Hobbies Of the house Of commons for
10 years, narrates some Of his curious ex-
perienoes. Referring to Bellamy's kitch-
on go vividly described by Charles Dick
ems, and to the members who were wont
to frequent 1t, he says: "You got the
best chop and steak and cold meat and
salad In the world, and the parrot who
called Order, order!' and Chair, chairP
and all the cries of the house, and the i'm
mortal Jane, who ohaffed every one, as
described by Dickens, were still there,
and members Of the government might be
seen eating their dinner at real deal

f1ng her, you, a younger son, and only

An amusing story is told Of Lord Palm

memorabilia him on the subject Of tho
wine duties. Just an they were leaving

The "reminiscences that center In John

appearance is hung over white satin
and forms a front panel In a gown made, EN-
princesse The rest OF the gown is over
velvet, which is OF the most exquisite Of
the green shades. Hardly anything OF
more bewildering beauty can be imagined.
One OF the women that boasts the posses
sion of the fabric insists that she prizes
it too highly to hack 1t out in ball gown.
for the weight OF the beetles backs on the
delicate net makes 1t very perishable. Her
beautiful square will be used as a table
covering at formal dinner parties It will
be spread over white satin and finished
with an exquisite broad gold lace. No sill
yer or glass ornaments will be used with
this covering. only the softest pink or yell
low roses will droop upon it to complete
the decoration
An immense amount OF dexterity is re-
quired to be able to purchase this stun In
Egypt, as 1t is made exclusively by the
women in the harems, and in very small
quantities. 1t Is only worn by them on
the most distinguished occasions when It
covers some lovely face as a veil. The
beetles have ever been objects OF the great
est interest in Egypt and used for personal
adornment.
We have also this season fair prospect
Of seeing many OF the embroidered boleros
in gold and silver that are so characteristic
OF Egyptian art. Those that are the most
beautiful are also made by the women In
the harems and can be readily distinguished
by the absence Of all apparent stitches
They appear to be blown together. although
in reality they are sewn securely from the
