Borrowing Habits Of Poets,

On Tennyson's habit of failing to
recognize clearly his own borrowings
from the classical poets, Mr.. Lang OBJ
serves that the poets have always had
a kind of regal Indifference to their
own lighter productions. Mr.. Lang
says: "Scott did not care; no, not when
he found that he had unwittingly taken
a line from poem by the valet of a
friend In the preface to little col
lection Of verses from the novels he
frankly declares that he cannot pretend
to be certain which are of his own COM
position and which are not
ITO take an example from the level
at the foot Of Parnassus, once read,
in an American paper, some lines at
tributed to Mr.. Austin Dobson. Not
bad for Dobson,' I said freely to a
friend. But it was proved on me that
the rhymes were my own! z bard who
forgets his own verses may be par
doned for remembering those Of other
people and mistaking a half line of
somebody else's for his own. dare
say that Tennyson did this occasion
ally, but he could hardly say that the
sun sets without being accused of I'M
conscious borrowing"

A Street Parable.

A little girl stood at window blow
ing soap bubbles. Beneath stood lit
tie boy, and as she blew bubbles to-
ward him he tried to catch them. They
broke and disappeared on all sides,
but the two laughed and kept up the
game. she smiling down and he gazing
upward eagerly.
Behold, parablew said a man to
woman. 1.-THE eternal relation of the
sexes! You, blow beautiful bubbles
down to us from your height. and we
weary ourselves in trying vainly to
catch them. Poor little boyy'
The pair played and laughed in the
sunshine until the boy grew tired. He
called out Goodbye gayly and ran
away to play with other boys and girls
in the street. The girl looked after him
wistfully, shadow on her face. She
did not care to blow bubbles any more.
She leaned out to watch him, and as
she did SO she tipped over the bowl
of soapy water. She looked very lonely.
Behold, parablew said the woman
to the man. HE has tired of the
game; not she. There Is no other little
boy to blow bubbles to. and if there
were she has no pretty bubbles left to
blow. Eternal relation Of sexes! Poor
little girl!-New York Tribune.

Fire Among Savage Nations.

According to Pliny fire was long
time unknown to some of the ancient
Egyptian tribes, and when celebrated
astronomer made them acquainted with
that element and how to produce 1t
they were wild with delight. The Per-
SLAMS, Ph9nicians, Greeks and several
other nations acknowledge that their
ancestors were once without the COM
forts which fire bestows; the Chinese
confess the same Of their progenitors.
Pompanion, Mola, Plutarch and other
ancient writers speak of nations which.
at the time when they wrote, knew not
the use Of fire or had just recently
learned 1t.
The inhabitants of the Marian,
islands. which were discovered in 1861,
had no idea Of fire or its uses. Their
establishment knew no bounds when
they saw 1t applied to wood, most Of
them taking it to be some kind of an
animal which the sailors had brought
with them and which must be fed on
wood

When Frenchmen Were Germans.

When Frenchmcn Were Germans.
The name of France is derived from
the Franci or Franks, a people Of Ger
many who seized that part Of the
country nearest the Rhine and settled
there. Later on they subdued Paris
and made that the royal seat of their
increasing empire.
The origin Of other geographical
names is interesting and will serve to
enlighten us when we read of, for in
stance, Hibernia for Ireland. Hibernia
is said to be derived from Phoeni-
clan word meaning 'farthest habita-
tion," there being no country known to
them west of Erin
Portugal obtained its name from Por-
to. the haven or port where the Gauls
landed their stores. This is Oporto,
called by the Portuguese o Porto (the
port. The town was given as dowry
to Teresa when she married Henry de
Lorraine, who styled himself Earl Of
Portugal because the place was known
as the portus Gallorum (the port of the
Gauls). The name was finally extend
ed to the whole country.
Russia took its denomination from
the Rossi, or Russi, people of the
south Of Russia, who possessed them
selves of the country in the declining
days of the Greek empire. Being the
predominant inhabitants, they imposed
their name on all the rest.
