THE LIAR ABROAD.
An American Travellers Encounter
with One OF the Worst OF
the Species.

zone encounters some astOnishingly
able-bOdied liars in travelling" said
lawyer who was abroad last season.
while I was at MarseiIles during my
first visit to France, L was seated one
evening in the Cafe Richie, in the heart
of the city, when my attention was at
tracted by the loud talk of a black
bearded man at the adjoining table.
he appeared to be a Hungarian, and
was telling some French officers of an
adventure at New Orleans OF course,
I pricl1ed up my ears and heard his
whole story, which was substantially
this: He was taking dinner at the
principal hotel, he said, when negro
waiter spilled a plate Of soup on a
woman's dress. Instantly the guests
decided that the culprit should be
lynched, but the landlord begged the
director Of the party-think Of d.
rector Of a Iynching bee!-tO defer
the ceremony until after the meal, as
he was very short Of help. This was
courteOusly agreed to, and the pros
pective victim assisted in serving the
repast, praying eloquently between
courses. After coffee he was taken out
and strung up to a stately tree on the
boulevard In front Of the hotel
the woman whose gown had suffered

This astonishing balderdash was
told seriously and was interrupted by
freuuente ordinations Of horror. What

THE STITCH IN TINE
Always Receive Prompt
Affe1fIOn.

System in Homework depends upon
promptness In doing that which is to
be done. Like the tangled web Of the
careless knitter, the work win all 90
hOpelessly awry If any stitch is
dropped. Home work, the task Of sew
ing and the various tasks Of serving
those we love, whether in cooking
dainty, wholesome food for them, or in
preparing clothing that viii keep them
warm, are tasks that only vulgar WON
en- despise. There must be something
essentially vulgar in any woman, what
ever opportunities Of culture she has
had, who does despise such tasks, which
the wisest and best women have de-
lighted in.
This home work is made Of small de-
tails, trivial in themselves, something
which frivolous persons would be apt
to sheer at, but which wise women re-
spect, as stitches in the great web Of
home life and home happiness. These
home tasks are the highest Of all, be
cause wholesome, healthfuI existence
depends upon them, and therefore all
healthy, able work, Of whatever kind
or degree, depends upon it.
When we investigate the work Of
great scientists, great poets OF states
men Of eminence in the annals Of the
world, we usually find patient, loving
mothers, wives or sisters helping and
sustaining them by making their homes
Ravens Of rest from outside cares and
trials. "a Pharos on the stormy sea"
Therein have some of the best Of wOm-
en- found their greatness, and the wisest
Of women have never scOrned these
tasks. The coral insect is but trivial
mite to the eyes Of the unframed, but
the scientist recognizes a power that
builds up gigantic rocks and islands,
against which the ocean beats without
moving them Nothing is too trivial to be
despised because Of its apparent size.
No duty we are called on to do is Of
too little consequence to be done ''as
by Gods law"
1t is impossible to tell how far the
demoralizing effect Of the neglect of
what appears to US a trivial matter may
reach, or what inspiration another may
receive from the faithful performance
Of the smallest task, well and faithfully
rendered to God, as all work should be.
Some one has defined genius as the
power Of persistence. It might be
called, also, the power Of Distinguishing
between the essential tasks Of life and
those which, however pretentiOus they
appear, after they are truly measured
are nessential-trihing things, mag
nifed by the mists Of imagination.
Fortunate viii we all be if we know
III =
home work, or in any task that has
been given Us to do. The power to
keep the web Of our tasks moving for
ward, in a systematic, orderly way,
without tangle or stop, is a rare gift,
Steady, even work, without nervous
breaks and spasms, is what is needed
everywhere, and especially in the
hOusehOld.-N. Y. Tribune.

Trouble.

A naturalist found black ants were
devOuring the skins Of some bird speci-
mems on table, so he made tar circles
on four pieces Of paper and put one IN
der each leg Of the table. Ants viii not
cross tar. Pretty soon he found the
ants busiIy at work again, and, looking
at the tar circles, found each one was
bridged by bits Of sand which the clever
ants had brought in from the street.
On one occasion, owing TO excessive
heat, one Of the combs Of a beehive be-
came detached and was in great danger
Of falling. The bees at once set to work
and erected a snoring pillar between
the endangered comb and the one next
to 1t. The pillar braced the comb and
kept it from falling. Then they rebuilt
the wax cells, fastening the comb to the
wall, and afterward removed the pillar.
A Capuchin monkey was given some
walnuts, which he tried TO crack with
his teeth, but found he was not strong
enough. He then seized a stone which
was near by, held the nuts on the
ground with one hand and used his
stone hammer with the other, with ex-
celIeDt results. Other monkeys have
been seen to utilize uutpicks.

On the way to Martinique the botanist

getting low, shared his own daily Al

spending to his kindness, they were
soon growing nicely in Martinique. In
due time these slips produced their
fragrant white hOwers-they grow at
the roots Of the leaves-and these pres

its two grains Of coffee. From Mar
