EeyptIan 81. nt PIar.

In her "Recolections Of an Egyp-
tian Princess" the author describes a
little game at romps in the garden Of
the palace which disclosses a very
close touch of nature. The princess
was seated near a little lake, which
had been constructed in a serpentine
shape, winding about under rustic
bridges.
She was laughingly scolding one of
her attendants, when the girl broke
away crying out. my mistress is an
cry with me- I'll drown myself"
and rushed into the water
The princess called out "Oh, stop
herl Stop her! and three or four more
followed Immediately. But the first
knew well enough that the water was
not more than three feet deep, so she
had done it for n joke, and she turned
round and threw water in the faces Of
her pursuers.
The princess had seen the joke di-
rectly after the cry had escaped her.
and now joined heartily in the fun,
and urged others to help in the cap
ture. The general dress when warm
weather set in was white Indian grass
cloth, more or less fine, made loose,
and confined at the waist by colored
sash or ribbon to match being
usually worn round the throat, and to
tie back the hair
Tho dress could not be hurt by the
immersion, but the ribbons might be
spoiled. Some were seen to cast a
glance on their pretty ties, which was
a signal to those who saw the look to
rush upon them at once and push them
in
There was nothing but screaming
and laughing, several disporting them
selves in the water, others pursued all
over the garden, met at the cross
paths turning and doubling on their
pursuers. The princess clapped her
hands with delight and laughed unre-
STRANGELY, and the girls themselves
were immensely pleased with the joke

Listen to Papa.

There is man who fancies he is ut
the head of the house This particu-
lar man has several small children,
and it pleases him to discourse a
great deal on the training of the
young.
A few days ago he had friends Wis
iting him. His two little sons began
ITO play about noisily. 1t is one of his
theories that children should obey i'm
plicity, and he wanted his friends to
see how he carried it out in the train
ing of his own family.
Johnny" he said sternly, stop
that noise instantly"
Johnny looked up in surprise, and
then grinned little.
ooh, Freddie" he said to his broth
er, as they went on with the noisy
romp, "just listen to papa trying to
talk like mama!"

The first ink used by the ancients
was probably some sort of SCOT or
lampblack rendered fluid with gum
water An ink Of this sort is less flow
ing than our modern ink, and not so
well adapted to rapid writing, but it
had the great advantage of being
solid body Of an unalterable color.
This advantage appears in manuscripts
dug up at Herculaneum, which, al
though burned to q perfect charcoal
and buried for nearly is centuries, are
still legible The ink remains as if
embossed upon the surface, and APP
pears blacker than the burned paper.
The reed. which was the first pen in
use. was a sort of bullrush, growing
in many parts of the east. These reeds
were cut in the manner of a quill, and
are still used by natives who write the
Arabic character. Nations who have
adopted the Chinese character use q
camels hair pencil, which is held per
pendicularly in the hand. This would
seem little adapted for rapid writing,
yet the Chinese write their complicat-
ed characters by means Of these i'm
plements with a rapidity seldom
equaled by European writers.
The quill appears to have been first
in use about the year 600 The word
"penna," meaning a quill, is not found
in any work older than chat period.
Previous to that we find usually the
word "calamus," a reed. The qiull has
an advantage over the reed in being
finer and more durable, the same quill
often serving for weeks or even
months. Some ancient writer used
the same pen for 40 years, and then
losing it. by accident. bewailed his loss
bitterly. 1t is said that the translat-
or Pliny completed that work with q
single pen, and celebrated his achieve
ment in this verse:
With one sole pen | wrote this book
Made of a gray goose quill;
A pen it was when [ it took:
A pen I leave it still.-BrooklyI

A Ready Answer.

Little Bobbie c., although only
seven years old, always has a ready
tongue and quick answer, which is
the delight of all those who know him.
Frequently Boobies wits save him re-
buke from the parental wrath, as they
did only recently. Bobbie had been
naughty and his mother deemed it
necessary to chastise him with small
switch, of which he stood in great
dread although it was very frail in
strument of punishment The mother
got down the switch and called her
son to her. He came reluctantly.
"Bobbie,' she said, gravely, Il am
very sorry, that / will have to whip
you"
IF you are so sorry" came the quick
answer, 81 will forgive you and you
needn't whip me, mammal"

RnIndrnn,s Own Story.

We are all little raindrops frOlicklng
up in a cloud / never knew how we
got there until my mother told me- OF
course, there isn't anything else to
say about it, except that we were
drawn up in vapor to this cloud. But
l can tell you what happened to me
after that, and make it a good long
story too
AS | say, we we're all frolicking
around, and pretty soon we heard
great crash, and we were all falling to
the ground, even mother after me. We
saw our old home, the cloud leaving
us.
We came down in this way all night,
and in the morning we landed in some
mud (my mother and y. We soon
soaked into the dirt and slept soundly
till spring. Then we came bubbling
up out of the ground and cheerfully
down a little stream, kissing flowers
and giving drinks to poor, thirsty
grass. Many weeks passed in this
way, until at last we entered large
river, all filthy with sticks and gravel
and tin cans and iron hoops.
| ventured to ask my mother what
place this was, and she answered:
This is the Illinois river, my child;

and my wish was granted; we were
in the Mississippi, and, though it
wasn't any cleaner than the other, l
was proud to be in such grand river.
Just now we happened to be in a boat
road " as | called it, and we were being
whirled around and thrown up in foam,
but what cared / so long as we. were in
the grand Mississippi?
1t took us days and months before
we were out of the grand river, I see
ing many things that l never would
have dreamed Of up in the clouds. Once
we were thrown up onto the deck Of a
ship, and were swept off by man with
ribbons on his hat, which my mother
said was sailor.
At last we we're emptied into the
Gulf of Mexico Here I thought
should die with the waves. They
RULED everything, and tossed mother
and myself around careiessly. At last
we were IN a rougher place; the waves
were awful there. They tossed us III
against the ships cabin holes and bacl
again. My mother said it was the At
lantic ocean.
Just as she said this, to our grea
JOY we were taken from the awful At
lantic ocean up into our own Old cloud
and we found all our old friends bacl
again before us.-Donald S. Mckay

When first I came to the territory

YnnIshinr Gaelic.

1t is pathetic to find that while the
Irish language movement is rapidly
spreading the number of Scottish
speakers of Gaelic has considerably
diminished. In 1891 the number who
spoke Gaelic only was 34,758, but at
The last census they had dwindled to
2S,706. There is, apparently, more
urgent necessity for a Gaelic revi-
val" in Scotland than in Ireland; un-
less. indeed, the figures only mean
that many Gaelic speakers have now
added the knowledge of English to
their observation-disclosures Daily
