Aristocrncy of the Syn.

There is an aristoeracy Of the sun.

the daylong shadow that winds amid

study of the great valleys Of the can
ton between Martigny and the Rhone
glacier and finds that where both sides
are equally steep preference is given to
the sunny side as place of residence,
there being three persons there to one
on the side in the shadow. This is not
remarkable, but it is remarkable that
the dwelIers in the sunlight are far SUI
periOr to those who live in the shadow
in intelligence. education and general
prosperity.
Sunlight has developed ambition and
energy, and its effect is seen in the
homes, fields, dress and conversation Of
these people of the sun, who look with
contempt on the people of the shade
across the valley.

Executed by Proxy.

In China ii is nothing out Of the way
for q criminal under sentence Of death
to secure at price a substitute to die
for him at the hands of the execution
er. Money Of course comes mainly into
play, the price going to the substitutes
relations. remarkable case Of such
substitution is reported from Fuchau.
The particulars to hand show that
when a certain childless criminal there
was adjudged to death his family met
to see what should be done. The super
stition Of the land ran counter to a
man dying without leaving son at
least to worship him after death. The
criminal had a brother who had so
many sons that he had no fear of be-
ing left without worshipers. The fam
fly decided to put him in as substitute
for the childless one. so that the latter
could live on to get son. The military
mandarin concerned was bought over,
the criminal was set free, and his
guiltless brothers head was cut off.
The family. the mandarin and the pub
lie were satisfied. But the mandarn's
superiors did not see it In that light
and informed the prefect at the city.
He ordered the mandarin to be
scourgcd like common cooly.

EIfa Red NecLtiea.

J. Howard Jacobs of Reading, Pa,
who died recently, was buried wearing
a red necktie. Around this fact there
is woven a curious story. Mr.. Jacobs,
who was one Of the leading lawyers OF
eastern Pennsylvania, wore a red tie
for the first time twelve years ago at
an important case that be was trying.
The case seemed all against him. EV-
cry one was sure he would be beaten,
and yet be won After the verdict one
of the opposing lawyers said: Jacobs.
that tie OF yours hypnotized the jury.
You had better wear it hereafter in all
your important cases." Mr.. Jacobs
took his rivals advice. At every sub
seduent case of moment he wore a
famboyant red tie, and 1t is said that
never when he had this tie on did a
verdict go against him. 1t was in
honor Of this superstition Of his, which
all his friends knew and respected,
that he was buried in cravat OF 80
brilliant and inappropriate a color. 1t
is not explained whether his friends
thought he would need the lucky color
in the last case he would plead.

The Qnecn,a Rehuke.

Some years ago, when the present
queen of England was Princess Of
Wales and her children were very
small, they were staying at a quiet
watering place. The Montreal Star re-
peats this little story Of the royal fam
lily, which shows that Queen Alexan-
dra is much like other good mothers
and that her children are like children
the world over:
Once on returning from a short sail
one of the little princesses was walk
ing up the plank. An old sailor In
stinctively said:
"Take care, little lady"
The child drew herself up haughtily
and said:
'T'm not lady; I'm a princess"
The Princess of Wales, who over
heard the kindly injunction and the
rather i'll bred reply, said quickly;
Tell the good sailor you are not a
little lady yet, but you hope to be some
day"

SAW HIM UNCLOAKED.
Why the Timid Vicar Ceased 20 Fear
the Dignifed Bishop.


the Digni1ed Bishop.
A certain English bishop who was
generally feared by his clergy bocau'e
OF his arrogant and unbending manner
was visited one day by timid vicar
who had never held any communica-
tion with his lordship save by letter.
He had heard stories enough, how
ever, to make him exceedingly anxious
concerning the interview, and on reach
ing the palace he paused in the shrub
berry to get up little courage.
While he was standing there. hidden
as he believed, he saw the bishop coL.e
to the Goor, book in hand, and look ap
and down the garden. The sScst
promptly broke out in q cold pe sycs..
tion, thinking his skulking had ,e~.
detected Not so. After a long look
about the bishop called:
TOM
There was a faint and not very re-
spectful cooey from somewhere up IN
tree, but no other response.
"Come, Tom, come, my boy" coaxcd
the bishop 1T is time for your Latin
grammar. Let me hear it,"
So the unbending bishop taught
Tom Latin and had as much disci-
pline as the head of a dame SCHOOL,
The vicar stepped out from behind the
bush and looked after the bishop. WHO,
having gone forward, was now stand
ing under the tree that sheltered re.
bellious Tom.
"Now, Tom, come down." said the
bishop. Here is a shilling if you'll
come down."

"a shilling is all you'll get, Tom"
"a shilling as soon as | set foot OH

"All right, I'll come" graciously.
Shoulders, daddyw
The vicar saw the bishop lean for
ward, hands on knees; then stocky
young rebel landed Oh his shoulders,
and the vicar crept behind the bush
again. When the bishop and Tom had
gone into the house, the vicar stole out
Of the palace garden.
An hour later he returned. The blsh-
op was not less arrogant and unbend-
ing than he had been described, but tie
vicar had lost all fear. If it returned,
he thought be could hearten himself n
bit by looking at certain dust marks on
the shoulders of the episcopal coat

The Kings Shilling.

Rather curiously it appears that the
new King Edward shilling has found
its way to London from Belgium.
While not in general circulation as yet
in the Anglo-Saxon capital, few OF
them were paid out in the city within
the last few days. having arrived in a
consignment of coins received from
abroad.
The Bank of England, 1t seems, was
not aware that there had been a new
issue from the royal mint.
The new coin has the advantage of
being at least original in design, and,
while severely plain OH the diverse, is
sufficiently decorative in its arrange
ment to lead US to hope that the medal
lists who have charge Of the designing
and cutting Of the dies from which the
British coins are struck are learning
something Of the delicacies Of the art
from the French.
It is to be presumed that they will
shortly be in general circulation,
though further inquiry at the bank
draws forth no further information as
to when this may be expected, and the
puzzle is still unsolved as to how the
coins actually made their appearance
abroad before they were known In Lon
don.

The Game Of Town Lots

Newspapers and magazines are
at this time giving more or less
space to articles dealing with the
movement of emigrants into west
ern Canada. This calls to mind
the fact that while the tide of
emigration has from natural causes
always flowed westward in this
country, the movement has gen.
orally been marked during certain
years to some particular section,
and thus emigration would take on
the nature of a crush" to the sec
ton which for the time being was
in favor with the majority.
Such rushes have been many,
and were the result Of various
causes. Gold, that potent mover
of mankind, was the magnet which
drew thousands into the early rush
to California, the Black Hills,
Colorado and more recently Alas
