A Persian Romance.

A Persian plaque in the South Ken sington museum, London. bears by means of clever relief and brilliant col or a romantic tale, part legend and part history. Nobody knows the pro portion of each.
 At all events, it is declared to be an incident in the life of Baharam V of the Sassanian dynasty. Baharam. ac- cording to legend and plaque. was a wonderful archer During one of his hunting expeditions, on which his fa- vorite wife had accompanied him, he shot a sleeping antelope with such pre- cision as to graze the animals ear. The antelope awoke and, believing himself annoyed by fly, put his hind hoof to his ear to strike off the fly. A second arrow sent by the royal hand fixed the antelope's hoof to his horn.
 The kings wife merely said, "Prac- tice makes perfect" which touched the pride of her royal spouse.
 Indeed, as the penalty for her plain speaking, she was sent out into the mountains to perish, but instead found shelter in village. Here she lodged In an upper room ascended by 20 steps and, having bought calf, carried it up and down every day. The king. passing by four years later. was amaz- ed at seeing young woman carrying a COW up flight of 20 steps. The lady again took occasion to remark, "Prac- tice makes perfect" whereupon she unveiled, was recognized and restored to favor
