NOTRE DAM E.
The Cathedral Church of Paris Has
Had Many Hard Blows.


Placed in the very heart of the soil
of the ancient city, the Cathedral OF
Notre Dame has experienced blows
from all the excitements which Paris
has ever known. 1t was pillaged In
1893 at the worst moment Of the revo-
luton. There were twenty-eight stat.
ues Of kings and holy men In the old
cathedral. All OF these were broken,
and the affairs were upset. II was de-
cided by the commune that Notre Dame
should be turned into temple OF rea-
son, and festival was instituted for
every day. But the madmen Of the
revolution soon grew tired of their fetes
a la raison, and the religion of reason
was abolished to be replaced by that
of the Supreme Being.
The Cathedral of Our Lady was re-
stored to the Catholics in 1895. since
when, despite communes and revolu-
lions, they have been little troubled.
Indeed. in July, 1880, when Notre Dame
became a sort of fortress or barricade
against the insurrection. when the tri'
colored flag hoated from both its tow
ers and the archblshop's palace was
harmed. A year or so later the Church
Of st. German rAuxerrois was invad-
ed and almost ruined. The mob then
marched on the archbishop's palace
f,.0r ha ri ltff
Dame was again respected. The anger
Of the people was turned into respect
at its grand facade.
This cathedral of Paris has been as
ISOLATED with nearly every important
act during the reigns of all the kings.
as we'll as with innumerable other cap
ital events in the history Of France
which have happened since its first
erection. How many the kings, the
queens, the celebrated personages, who
have come to worship or to pray In
that sanctuary! How many the polit-
ical or religious festivals, Of joys or
sorrows, of dynastic changes and of
revolutions. which have been brought
on, so to speak. within its naves during
these nearly 900 years. Births and
marriages. the deaths of sovereigns,
the coronations Of kings and emperors,
the blessing Of flags, prayers for bat
ties gained and for peace proclaimed
these are a few Of the many things
witnessed at Notre Dame.
Louis XIV. decorated Notre Dame
with his pretentious magnificence, and
he tapestried it inside and out with
standards taken from the enemy in al
most every land. but in 1t was also
feted his sad treaty Of Rastadt. The
revolution broke down its affairs. and
harlotry scrambled in the ancient sane
tuary. but pious hands soon repaired
its ruin. and Napoleon |. spread his i'm
perial mantle over the wounds Of the
holy house-Detrot Free Press.

Killing the Turtle,

Killing a turtle with an arrow seems
a very difficult feat since a very hard
shell covers practically all of the ami
nal, yet the natives Of the Andaman
islands kill huge turtles with arrows
as easily as American sportsmen kill
rabbits with shot.
Accustomed from their childhood to
use bows and arrows, they soon become
wonderfully skilled in the use Of these
primitive weapons, and as they know
the places where turtles congregate 1t
is easy for them at any time to bring
home good bag Of game. Sometimes
they try their skill on large fish, and,
though the latter are harder to kill
than turtles, there are few islanders
who rarely miss their mark.
The bows and arrows are made OF
native wood and are longer and stron-
ger than those used by European arch
erS

pact body and carrying everything be-
fore them. If flock Of sheep be In
the line of march. as sometimes hap
pens. It Is surrounded. enveloped and
becomes, willingly or unwillingly, part
of the springbok army. An African
hunter tells the strange story Of seeing
a lion In the midst Of the antelopes,
forced to join the march. 1t Is sup
posed that the lion had sprung too far
for his prey, that those upon whom he
allghted recoiled sufficiently to allow
him to reach the ground, and then the
pressure from both TANKS and the rear
prevented him from escaping from bis
strange captivity.
If the springbok travels In such
armies, how can those in the middle
and in the rear find food? In this wise:
Those In the front ranks, after they
have eaten greedily Of the pasture,
gradually fall out of the ranks to rest
and chew the cud. while the hungry
ones In the rear come up, and so the
columns are all the while changing.

fail to make a vigorous and healthy
growth because 1t Is not moist enough
at the roots. Examine it, and you will
find that the tiny roots have extracted
the moisture almost wholly. II not
given more water at once, some OF the
young and delicate roots are injured,
and the plant takes on a diseased con.
dition. from which 1t often never re-
covers. Do not get the Idea that the
soil in which heliotropes are grown
ought to be kept wet. Not at all. But
because 1t requires more moisture than
many plants. because 1t extracts more
rapidly from the soil, water should be
given oftener to keep the soil In the
proper condition.

me you can't cook like she used to.
On another occasion he remarked:
"You are not so smart at getting

Once upon a time there was a credit
or to large amount whose debtor con-
stautly refused payment. The creditor
became impatient and after investiga-
ton found that the debtor lived in a
better house than he did. dressed bet
ter, clothed his wife in silks, satins and
laces and spent dollars where he, the
creditor, spent cents. Then he was
wroth.

said. "and collect what Is owing me-"
He brought suit and disclosed large

1t was all in the name of the debtors

Red Lncket'a Memory.

Red Jacket, the Indian chief, had
more confidence in his own memory
than in books and papers Of white men.
There was council at one time be-
fore Tompkins, an early governor OF
New York. in regard to an ancient
treaty. The agent said one thing, but
Red Jacket corrected him. you have
forgotten" said the American agent.
1--WE have II written down on paper"
"The paper then tells a lie,' was the
confident answer 81 have it written
here" continued the chief, placing his
hand with dignity upon his brow.
"You Yankees are born with a feath-
er between your fingers, but your pa
per does not speak the truth. The In
dian keeps his knowledge here. This Is
the book the Great Spirit gave him. 1t
does not lie." A reference was made to
the treaty in question, when to the as
constituent of all every word that Red
Jacket had said was confirmed on the
document

RIncIr Ruclra Of India.

The black buck of India Is very
graceful animal, weighing between
thirty and fifty pounds. The hide OF
the male when full grown is Of inky
blackness on the back, while the belly
is as white as snow, the contract being
very striking. The horns are black and
spiral in shape and in length average
about eighteen inches, although they
have been known to reach twenty-six
inches. The animals are usually found
in herds and are difficult to approach
on foot, as the bucks toss their heads
in the air from time to time in a very
graceful manner, and some Of them are
almost sure to detect any attempt at
stalking.

NEW YEARS CARDS.

In Japan originated the art Of max
ing and the custom of exchanging New.
Years cards. Today both are as obso-
lete In the Flowery Kingdom as is
New Years calling in the United
States. More charming art, more de-,
lfghtful custom. are not numbered
among the good things that have
passed away to suffer, in their time, let
us hope, a happy revival.
For more than 100 years the design
ing and coloring of New Years cards
occupied the attention of the foremost
craftsmen and wood engravers OF ia
pan. They were made at the command
of the noblemen of the emperor's court.
In size they were from & to s inches,
and each was inscribed with poetic
sentiment dictated by the noble giving
the order. They were printed from five
or six blocks. each color requiring, as
In modern color printing, a separate
block. The blocks were the property OF
the noble, who retained or destroyed
them at will. No reprints for another
were ever permitted. A nobleman's
New Years card was like his coat OF
arms or his sword The surimonos, as
Japans New Years cards were called,
were designed specially to please some
ladylove.-New York Press.

opened with a spring. A lady overlook
ing the game admired the watch and
took 1t I'D to examine it. On her at
tempting to open the back Jerome I'M
mediately clasped it and said that must
not be done. His wife, who stood by,
insisted uson knowing what was In IT.,
grew angry, reproached him with hav-
ing some keepsake Of faEorite there
and finally, bursting into tears, quit
the room.
Jerome then opened the waGch and
showed to all present that 1t contained

4 Bluff That Worked.

Peter Newell, the artist, was camp
ing out in Colorado at one time, living
in a te.-c News came Of a nocturnal
murder in the neighbOrhoOd, and con-
siderable uneasinesS was manifested
by some members Of the family. Mr.
Newell thereupon cut out some sill
hOuettes representing men Of the
toughest western type, all with pistols
in their belts and in the attitude of
men intensely interested in game of
poker. The silhouettes Mr.. Newell
fastened to the inner canvas of the
tent. At night the family, stepping
outside into the darkness to view the
result, were entranced with its success.
The shadows thrown from the sill
houettes in the lighted interior indi-
Gated tent filed with poker playing,
pistol shooting desperadoes. Thence
forth the Newell family slept In pas

Fierce Wild Hogs.

The wild hogs of southern Colorado
share with the peccaries Of Central
and South America the reputation Of
being the fiercest, most vindictive and
toughest animals of the western hemi-
sphere. They will follow tenaciously,
tree and starve out an enemy. Their
skins are tough, their vitality is re-
markable and their teeth sharp as ra-
zors. They travel in small droves and
are ready to attack anything, be it man
or beast, that arouses their ire. Hunt
ers in southern Colorado always OBJ
serve the precaution Of stationing
themselves within reach Of tree when
i'm the neighbOrhOOd of a drove.

Early Marriage In China.

1t is nothing rare in China for boys
twelve to fourteen years old to marry.
The physical, moral and intellectual de-
velopment of the contracting parties
has nothing to do with the matter. 9th
er considerations entirely regulate the
affair. An old Chinese aphOrism says
that the great busine-- Of life Is ended
when the sons and daughters are mar
ried. The Chinese parents do not care
to run the danger Of postponing the
marriage Of their children, especially
Of their sons, until after their own
death.
