President. Ate with Their Knives.

Presidents Ate With Their Knives.
All our earlier presidents ate with
lheir knives. Tho stately George Wash
lngton, the irascible John Adams, the
original Thomas jefferson, the learned
James Madison and the popular James
Monroe sboveled in his food with
his knife John Quincy Adams was
the first president who ate with his
fork. And his wife felt It necessary TO
explain to the guests at the Wnlte
House that "Mr Adams had learned 10
eat with his fork while in France ana
that he couldn't overcome the habit.
Andrew Jackson restored the "repub-
lican simplicity of eating with his
knife. All of those we have named also
noured their tea or coffee into their
soncers TO cool II. 1t is related of Gen
oral TAYLOR that when he was presl-
dent he could be seen in the streets OF
Washington early in the morning Win
n market basket on his arm going from
ono butcher to another and bargaining
for steak or rib roast If he had
bargained less persistently, he might
have served out his term, for we nave
heard II was owing to the inferior
ouality of the cherries he ate on the
Fourth of July, 1850, that sickness at
tackled him and he died ON the Sth OF
July.-Uuca Observer.

The Lions Roar.

Major Austin, writing Of his travels
in central Africa, says: "The grandest'
the most awe inspiring, the most ire
mendous voice on earth issues from the
throat Of that king of beasts, the lion
II is difficult to describe that mighty
roar bursting out into the silence OF the
night and seeming to shake the very
ground beneath one. 1t makes one feel
petty. insignificant. of no account
when his majesty voices his satisfac-
ton at having dined well on some poor
unsuspecting antelope which has al
lowed itself to fall under the clutches
Of that ponderous paw The men hud-
die together; deadly stiffness follows:
there IS catch in ones breath, and 1t
is with a sense of relief whisper per
haps Of 'Simba shiba' the lion Is satl-
ated) arises. and conversation gradual
" resumes its flow"

Feline Ethics.

A correspondent sends the following
story to Animal Life:
az called the kitten" writes the cor
RESPONDENT, "who sprang from heI
basket where she had been lying WIN
her mother and followed me into the
next room. The cat followed, growing
warningly. and, taking 1t up by the
neck. l replaced It in the basket. Again
I called it. and again it came at my
call. This time the mother, growing
still more threateningly, followed us
again. but this time she seized the KIT
ten by the tail instead Of the neck, EVIL
IDENTITY as a punishment, and pulled il
roughly along, the kitten mewing heip-
lessly. For a third time called, ana
once more 1t came to me, but this time
the mother was silent. She came, TOOK
ND the kitten, dragged it of and ther
began to bite It again and again In or
der to secure its obedience. This meth
cd was successful, and the next time
called it was in vain"

ola Engraved Rings.

Among the legends of Greece 1t Is
told that the father of PythagOras' the
famous Greek philosopher, was cele-
brated engrayer Of gems, and, accord
ing to classical history, both Helen OF
Troy and Ulysses of Greece wore en-
graved rings. Engravings on stones
that were partly precious was an art
at a very remote age The British mu-
scum proudly boasts the possession OF
a small square of yellow Jasper bear
ing the figure of n horse and the name
and titles Of Amenophis H., believed 70
date back to about the year 1850 b. {.
The very finest specimen Of engraved
gem now I'm existence is head of Ne
70 carved on a first water diamond by
the brothers Castanz in the year 1870

A Cnrinus Cod.

Among the most extraordinary pieces
Of symbolism known to have been used
by the early Asiatics was a figure of n
donkcys head used as n representative
OF the Deity. There is no doubt what
ever that the same emblem was once
used among the Hitttes, the Egyp-
tlans aud one or two other nations as a
symbol of their red god, SUIT. The
superstition of the yellow donkey of
India. the story of the swift ass Of
eastern Asia and the ass Of Dionysius
and many other marvellous ass stories
are all surviyals Of that curious form
OF religious wroship, the alteration of
the ass head.
