A SELFISH SHAH.
The High Prices of Persian Lamb Capes
Accounted For.

The High Prices of Persian Lamb Capes
Accounted For.
The shah Of Persia may be only in
the $50 class in matters of diplomacy
and he does not dare exactly to slap
Queen Victoria or Kaiser Wilhelm on
the back when the potentates chance to
meet, but, SO far as matters in Persia
are concerned, when the shah makes a
law it is generally enforced to the letter.
A case in point may be cited in the
matter Of Persian lambskin. Persian
lambskins are and have long been an
article of staple demand in the COM
mercial world. They have commanded
such good prices that the supply was
hardly equal to the demand Conse-
quently, when the shah one day ordered
spring lamb with mint sauce, the cook
was obliged to confess that the dish was
beyond the command of the Persian
treasury. Of course the cook was
promptly beheaded, but the shah could
not find another cook who would agree
to furnish spring lamb whenever his
majesty desired to indulge in that deli
cacy.
This naturally irritated the shah.
After consulting with three or four of
his most trusted advisers, who could see
no way out of the difficulty and who
consequently disappeared from their
homes and society in mysterious man
ner, the shah finally decided that the
commerce of Persia was threatened by
the extinction of Persian sheep and Per-
sian lambs. Consequently he made a
decree that any person found with lamb
skins in his possession for purposes Of
trade or commerce would be fined heav-
lily. Since then the export trade in Per-
sian lambskins has stopped with a
blunt and nauseating jar.-Boston Ad-

OUR STORED UP POWER.
AIr. Staybolt Considers Man as Built Upon
Compartment Plan.

AIr. Staybolt Considers Man as Built Upon
Compartment Plan.
Man is, as one might say" said Mr..
Staybolt, "built in series Of compart-
ments, though he may not know this
fact at the outset, and he may indeed
go through life and die without know
ing it, taking with him unused stocks
OF ability and strength that he had
never known he possessed, simply be-
cause they were never brought into
play. As to what will bring their quail
tiles into play men differ. There are
some few men who command them
selves, and some who open at touch.
and then there are many who respond
only to the most urgent call. But there
are few men who cannot in some way
be moved to action.
"This brings me, for illustration, to
brief consideration of the personal
quality commonly denominated as sand,
OF which, imagine, most of us possess
far more, than we suspect, for there are
few men who finally run away-mighty
few who will not stand up and fight
when they feel that they are really call
cd upon. But our sand is in compart-
ments, and most Of us, fancy, open
only one and make that last through
life, and we die without knowing how
brave we are unless some great occa-
sion, independent Of ourselves, opens
another compartment and shows US
what we really have in reserve. might
add that there are few if any revela-
tions that come to us in life that give
us greater pleasure or more enlarge our
horizon.
"The moral Of all this is that in our
good qualities we should trust ourselves
without hesitation. There are qualities
which will easily suggest themselves,
which it would be better to leave un-
used, better for ourselves and for every
body else if the compartments contain
ing them were never opened, but as to
such qualities as pluck, endurance, en-
ergy, capacity and moral strength we
should call upon ourselves freely. We
should not take down with us, as other
wise we are almost certain to do, stores
Of these valuable qualities untouched,
but rather we should draw upon them
now and constantly and confidently, and
so doing we shall be gratifed with our
constant growth in strength and more
than gratified with the attending SUBJ
stantial rewards. New York Sun

Cleaning and Dyeing Feathers.

To dye feathers black, first wash
them in a pint of boiling water in
which half teaspoonful of soda has
been dissolved; then rinse and put in
the dissolved dye as prepared for silk
holding by the tips of the stems and
moving in the boiling water. Rinse in
cold water, dry between soft cloths and
over a stove where they may be waved
in the warm air. If the feathers come
out too light black add more dye.
Curl with the black of a knife drawn
under two or three fues of feather at
a time after heating the knife slightly
over warm iron, which makes it curl
quicker. White feathers may be gent
ly soused in warm soapsuds until clean,
rinsed in clear water, and dried and
curled according to the plan given for
dyed feathers.-June Ladies' Home
