So Twenty-four hours or more before

proprietor knows that rain will come
down during the day. and, as rule, it
comes down in torrents. The sign new
er fails. This presensation, to coin a
word, which exists in many birds and
beasts may be explained partly from
the increasing weight of the atmos-
phere when rain is forming. partly by
habits of living and partly from the
need of moisture which is shared by
all. The American catbird gives warm

The Old Jewish wedding Rinu.

The old time Jewish wedding ring
was quite ponderous affair of tiligree
gold, enameled in colors. A~dome or
temple in miniature which rose from
the middle of the hoop, was a favorite
device. Sometimes the hoop was about
three-quarters of an inch wide and had
raised edges.
One ring of this kind is described by
an authority as having five elevations
on the upper part, the center hex
agonal tower. with penthouse roof slop-
ing down to the hoop, the gables and
sides pierced with fourteen holes. or
windows. and the roof scored to imi-
tate tiles. On either side of this was a
smaller tower without windows. No
other ring could find room on wOm-
ans finger besides this.

MARINE ART.


1t is an axiom with sailors that there
never was man who put in three
years before the mast who did not
think he could paint a Ship better than
the most skillful landlubber that ever
welded brush. In the homes of re-
tired sea captains specimens of this
kind of marine art are often displayed
on the walls to admiring friends and
are handed down as family heirOoms.
A good place for the man who has no
seagoing relatives or friends to see
such pictures is in some of the win
dows of ship supply stores on South
street in New York. Sailors buy them
occasionally.
Ships that sailors paint are absolutely
correct in every detail. From brig to
a full rugged three master there is not a
block or tackle missing from stem to
stern or from masthead to water line
No marine painter could get in half so
much detail if he tried. Bat the ships
painted by sailors look as if they were
caught fast in frost tipped waves.
There is absolutely no life or any sug-
gestion of moti"h about them even
when represented as going under full
sail When Il sailor tries to get in bit
of landscape as background, as he
usually does, he makes matters hope
lessly worse. AS a general thing it is

A clergyman in New Jersey hired a
man to act in the capacity of coachman
and gardener. One day the clergyman
bought bottle of horse liniment and
told the man to apply it to lame horse
according to the directions on the bot
tie.
About an hour afterward he went to
the barn and found Sias industriously
dipping spike into the liniment and
then rubbing it against the horses leg.
"What are you doing that for?" he
asked.
The man looked up with a smile Of
assurance. Because" said he, "'twas
what it said in the directions on the
bottle, but It's slow work."
''You must have made a mistake"
said the minister.
81 have not" answered the man in
an aggrieved tone. 1T says here on the
bottle, Apply with large nail or
tooth brush,' and. as l had no tooth
brush, thought I'd better use this
spike"

Mere Money Getting.

Money getting is no new passion.
From the beginning nineteen-twen-
tieths of our American population have
had no other mastering purpose than
to make money. They have been bread
winners, fortune getters. by the lines
Of least resistance. without dreams Of
success in the professions or in the arts
or in patriotic politics.
But there have also been up to re-
cent years a remnant, a select few, a
company of enlightened and gifted
people, who have put ideals ahead of
money getting.
There was AgassiZ, who refused to
lecture at $500 a night because he was
too busy to make money. Charles Sum-
ner declined to lecture at any price be-
cause, he said, as senator all his time
belonged to Massachusetts. Sturgeon
refused to come to America to deliver
fifty lectures at $1,000 night, saying
he could do better; he could stay in
London and try to save fifty souls
Emerson steadfastly declined to in
crease his income beyond $1,000 be-
cause he wanted his time to thipk.-

Music thc Kernel of welsh Nature

Music thc Kernel of welsh Nature.
Music is the very soul and kernel Of
the Welsh nature. A musical ear is the
national birthright Every Welsh
preacher who migrates to an English
church finds the greatest difficulty in
'abstaining from that weird, peculiar
intonation of his sermon which is
known as the hwyl and which is often
strange and Objectionable to English
ears.
A remarkable and subtle fact which
will be interesting to English readers
and at the same time significant of the
SensitivencsS of the Welsh musical ear
is that it is positive discord to many
among the Welsh congregations if the
minister, in giving out the first verse
of the hymn, does not so pitch his voice
that it shall be in harmony with the
key in which the tune has prelimina-
rily been played by the instrumentalist
Westminster Review.

A Bret Hurte story.

Bret Harte was once asked in Lon

perado came into saloon, and Of
course those who knew him had bust

Where They Were Appreciated

The government has with great lib
erality distributed public documents
from Washington to the remotest parts
of the country. In his book on The
Overland Stage to California; Mr..
Franklin Root tells how the overload
ed mails We're sometimes relieved.
Before the daily mail went into oper-
alton and when stage went to Salt
Lake City only once week some Of
the boys on the line used to despise Il
coach almost wholly loaded up with
public documents, but such mail mat
ter came quite handy at times.
Occasionally the drivers, as they
themselves said, would get stalled go
ing through Il bad slough in rough
weather and would be unable to move.
In that case they were obliged to take
out sack after sack of the pub. docs.,"
open the bags and pile the massive
books from the government printing
office into the slough and by building
a solid foundation with them were en-
abled to'pull the coach out of the mire.

A remarkable fact in the physiology
Of ants is their memory. The number
of ants that go to make a nest is enor-
nous, yet they are all personally known
to each other and are able to recognize
members of their own community aft
err prolonged absence. Sir John Lub-
book kept one of these remarkably in
telligent insects from its home for
year. On its return the relatives from
whom it had been so cruelty separated
recognized their wanderer and welcom-
ed it back. while an ant introduced
from another nest was most .inhOspi-
tally treated, even murdered and
thrown out.

SOCIETY IN IRELAND.
A Person Is Judged There Entirely
Upon His Merits.

An English scribe gives a delightful
picture of Irish society. in which, she
says, there are mo nillionaires and no
nouveauX riches" Titles there are in
plenty, but position counts for moth
ing unless the persons in question are
"good Sorts in themselves. Whereas
in England one is tolerated principally
for ones wealth, in Scotland for ones
birth, in Ireland it would appear one
is judged entirely on ones merits
'"The average Irish household differs
from the English in being less stiff,
more amusing and more hospitable.
Possibly the wall paper may be
trife moldy from damp and the stair
carpets not altogether innocent of
holes. while your bedroom jug and
basin may not match. but these are
counterbalanced by priceless old prints.
superb bits of old silver and all the
fun of the fair 1t is more anus
ing to pay round of country visits in
Ireland than in England. There is no
ceremony. but Of hearty, sincere well
come there is no end. There is no anx-
iety about an Irish party amalgamat-
ing, for guests are all drawn into the
family circle, whereas an English par
ty does not thaw out until the visit il
nearly over and often only shows signs
of eyhilaration when the hour of de-
parture arrives. It is mistake" con-
cludes the critic, "for the Saxon to
start plans for the improving Of Ire
land. The Irish standard of morality
puts English society to the blush"
