Perhaps one of the most trying con-
tretemps that occurred on the Ameri-
can stage, writes Julia Marlowe, over
took a sister artist of mine when she
was giving the first performance of a
serious and elaborate play in an impor-
tant American city. In the great emo
tional scene the sister of the character
played by my friend falls at her feet
in @ passion of tears and entreaties.
The heroine stoops to raise the strick-
en- creature and in tones that unite
pleading and command cries, "Get up,
Anne; get up!'
On the evening in question one of
that breed of imp children, q gallery

followed the great outburst, CLICKED
twice, after the manner of one starting
a horse. 1t would have been a phe-
nomenally self restrained audience that
could have resisted such a lapse from
the sublime to the ridiculous. The
scene went to pieces. the curtain was
rung down, and the actress sought her
dressing room in a gale of Mysteries

Rutchers and Blue.

The blue smock of the butcher, says
an English paper, has often aroused
curiosity. The color was originally
adopted by the guild of butchers in the
middle ages at a time when each trade
had its distinguishing color; but, while
other guilds dropped their colors, butch
ers stuck to blue because blood stains
are less noticeable upon that color than
upon any other. At very early period
blue was the universal wear of serving
men. 1t was then the cheapest of dyes.
Sir Walter Scott in his well known
poem "Marmion" talks Of IAN old, blue
coated serving man."

phv,fcnI COURAGE IN BattIe.

physical courage in battle" said an
old veteran, lis simply this: Your sense
of duty or your sense of shame is so
strong that you can't run away. All
this talk about men liking the roar of
battle is nine-tenths rubbish. Nobody
likes to be killed or wounded, and
nothing is more natural than for a
man to get out of the way of a bullet
If he can do so without too serious a
loss of his own self respect or of that
of his neighbors.
81 never knew but one man who
seemed as if he really relished fight
ing. and that was General Reynolds,
who precipitated the battle of Gettys-
burg and lost his life in so doing. 1t
was just like him to bring on an en-
gagement. Reynolds was always keyed
up very high in action. He would
shout and encourage his men and
plunge recklessly forward in a high
state of exaltation, as IL he were en-
crossed with some very exciting game
which he enjoyed playing. Other gen.
erals I have observed were cool, col
lected and impressive In action, but
somehow none of them impressed me
as having the same stomach for fight
ing as Reynolds. "--Philadelphia Ledg-
er.

why Boiled Water Freezes Easily

Water which is hot of course cannot
freeze until it has parted with its heat;
but water that has been boiled will,
other things being equal, freeze sooner
than water which has not been boiled.
A slight disturbance of water disposes
it to freeze more rapidly, and this is
the cause which accelerates the freez-
ing of boiled water. The water that
has been boiled has lost the air natu-
rally contained in it, which on exposure
to the atmosphere it begins again to
attract and absorb. During this proc
ess of absorption a motion is neces-
sarily produced among its particles,
slight certainly and imperceptible, yet
probably sufficient to accelerate its
congelation. In unboiled water this
disturbance does not exist: indeed
water when kept perfectly still can be
reduced several degrees below the
freezing point without its becoming
ice

Lord Dufferin always said that the
happiest years of his long official life
were those spent in Calcutta. He rev.
eled in the sunshine. A friend one day
expostulated with him for his reckless
exposure of himself to the weather.
well, you see," said the vieeroy, "they
have always sent me to cold places.
They sent me as vieeroy to Canada,
where one must live two-thirds Of the
year in buffalo furs. They sent me to
st. Petersburg, where one has to hiber-
nate like bear. SO when they ordered
me to India | rubbed my hands and
said to myself, Now can hang myself
up to dry"

Japanese Cats and Dogs.

Japanese cats have the shortest kinds
of tails or else none at all. One of
these cats, on being taken to a Euro
pean town, refused companionship
with the long tailed eats there; but,
finding a cat whose tail had been cut
off by accident, the two became friend
ly at once.
Japanese dogs are almost destitute
of noses, having the nostrils set di-
rectly in the head. The smaller the
nose the more valuable the breed.

FILIPINO NAMES.
Many Have Their Origin Explained
by Fnnciful Legends.

by Fnnciful Legenda.
Many Filipino names have had their
origin explained by faneiful legends
and traditions. Every name has a
meaning.
Jaro is called by uneducated Visa
yans Salog, which means cup. The leg
end which purports to give the deriva-
ton of this name dates back TO the
time when the monkeys and parrots
ruled the islands. Once there was a
great drought, and there was no place
where water was to be found in all
the mountains. So scouts were sent
out to look for water. and they tray-
efed many miles until they came to a
spot where the river flowed all the
year and where food was always plen-
ty. They took cup of water to prove
their find and went back to their COM
panions. who journeyed to the water
and called the place Salog, or cup.
When the babes adopted by the mon
keys after the slaughter at Iloilo grew
up and possessed the land, they re-
tanned the name.
Lyncod in Yisayan means "sit down."
The town of Lyncod, thirty miles from
Ioilo, is said to have received its name
because the first settlers were climbing
the mountain when they became tired
and said, LET us sit down." They sat
down where the town now stands and
found the place SO agreeable that they
remained and built the town.

WAYS OF THE GYPSY.
Methods of Communication Used by
the Romnny Tribes.

Methods of Com munfcafton Used by
the Romnny Tribes.
The ancient road signs of the ROM
any, the ''patteran," takes the place
of signboards or maps. The ''patteran"
Is little, carefully arranged pile of
sticks, grass or stones placed at cross
roads, where none but gypsy would
notice it any more than any one but a
Ronany could read 1t, but to him 1t Is
as plain as the MONDAY sun, and by it
q succession of such wayside tokens
one family or company can follow 9th
ers who may be days ahead of them for
hundreds of miles.
Though the gypsy has uses for other
methods of communication besides the
mysterious ''patteran," he is not let
ter writer. He rightly cares first for
his own immediate family circle. The
closest 'fn-laws'' do not travel together
unless perfectly congenial or unless it
is convenient for them to do so, and as
the rowing life is not conducive to let
ter writing even the nearest relatives
do not usually hear from each other di-
rectly more than once or twice Il year
at most.
In the city livery stables and pawn
brokers' shops opportunities are afford
ed for the exchange of news, but for
those who roam in small groups and
rarely strike large city or the great
bureaus of information, summer camp
ing grounds, where all the gossip of
the year is retailed, communication of
personal family news is uncertain

Spring Fever.

Spring fever is another name for
biliousness. 1t is more serious than
most people think. A torpid liver and
inactive bowels mean poisoned sys-
tenn. If neglected, serious illness may
follow such symptoms. DeWitt's Little
Early Risers remove all danger by
stimulating the liver, opening the
bowels and cleansing the system of
impurities. Safe pills. Never grippe.

Risers for torpid liver every spring for

Large Proportion Of Divorces to

en- marriages in Indiana in the year end

To be more nearly exact, the number OF
divorces was IL per cent OF the number
OF marriages. There were 2s.914 marriage
licenses issued in Indiana in that year,
and 1862 divorces granted.
