A Walters Walk.

Some interesting particulars are CIV
en- as to the ground covered by wait
er In dancing attendance upon the
guests In a restaurant In Chrlstlania.
The waiter had provided himself with
O pedometer before starting his work.
According to his calculations, he took
rather under 100000 steps, covering
some thirty-seven miles. between 8
a. IN. and 1890 a. IN. Working land
walking four days a week, he calcu-
lated that he covered more than 1000
miles in year, which would seem to
show that Swedish walters take their
work very seriously, unless, indeed, the
pedometer was fast" - Westminster

FAECONS.Y.
IL Was a FnvOrite Sport of Many
English MOnnrchs.

English MOnnrchS
Richard !. when IN the Holy Land
amused himself with hawking on the
plain of Sharon and is said to have
presented some of these birds to the
sultan. Later ON. while passing through
Dalmatia, he carried off a falcon which
he saw in one of the villages, and he re
fused to give IT up. He was attacked
so furiously by the justly lncensed VII
layers that it was with the utmost diff
ficulty that he managed to make his
escape.
King John used to send both to Ire
land and TO Norway for his hawks. We
are told by Frolssart that when Ed
ward III. invaded France he had thir-
ty falcons and every day either hunted
or went to the river for the purpose Of
hawking. Henry VII. imported Cos
hawks from France, giving IA for a
single blrd-a much greater sum in
those days than at present. Henry
VIII. while hawking at Hitchin was
leaplng n dixie when the pole broke,
and the king was Immersed head first
into the mud and would have persisted
In all probability had not his falconer
dragged him out.
Elizabeth and James l. were much
interested In the sport. The latter
sovereign indeed expended considerable
sums on It's maintenance. Aubrey In
his "Miscellanies" says, when was
q freshman at oxford l was wont to
go to Christ church to see Charles l.
at supper, where once heard him say
that as he was hawking in Scotland he
rode into the quarry and there found
the covey of partridges falling upon the
hawk, and remember his expression
further And l will swear upon the
book tits true. Chambers Journal.

LACE BARK TREES.
The Many Uses to Which Their Airtly
Light Fabrics Are Put.

The Many Uses to Which Their Airtiy
Light Fabrics Are Put.
There are In all about half a dozen
lace bark trees in the world, so called
because the inner bark yields natural
lace In ready made sheet form which
can be made up In serviceable articles
of apparel. Only four Of these curious
species of trees are of much practical
value. Tourists who have stopped at
Hawaii or Samoa may recall the lace
bark clothing of the natives-clothing
or a neat brSkn color when new, Of re-
markabfe strength and Of fragrant
OdOr, like freshly cured tobacco leaf.
The native tapa cloth, as 1t Is called, Is
made from the bark Of the brusonetia
papirlfera, but It Is not usually includ-
ed among the real lace bark trees.
III its natural state the real lace bark
Is Of a delicate cream white tint 1t Is
probably Il kind of flbrous pith. When
the outer bark Is removed II can be
unfolded and unwound In one seamless
piece, having Il surface Of little
more tnan square yuru. washing
and sun bleaching give 1t dazzling
white appearance. The fabric Is airlly
light. 1t Is used In the West Indies for
mantillas. cravats, collars, cuffs, win
dow curtalns-ln word for every pur
pose that ordinary lace Is used. In
making up shaWls, wells and the like
II is customary to piece two sheets Of
lace bark together. Delicate and APP

bit of lace bark, If rolled into n thin
string, Will all but resist human
strength to break II.
Despite It's practical use there Is no
essential demand for lace bark. 1t has
been used by the natives for hundreds
Of years and yet is comparatively little
known to this day. \ few specimens OF
lace bark articles exist in different
countries of Europe. These were made
hundreds Of years ago, yet, although
their age is considerable, they are said
to be In a good state of preservation
