Honest Sweden.

The SWedes are punctiliously honest and truthful. When asking for places at theater, for instance the ticket clerk never fails to inform the appli- cant if, owing to the crowded state of the house, a better position would be secured with cheaper ticket than the one asked for Again, when parcels are taken out by steamers from Stock holm to country places in the neghbor- hood, they are just thrown on to the quay, where they frequently remain half the day without being claimed. It never seems to occur to any one that they could be possibly taken by any one but their fightful owners. On canal trip of any length a little book lies in the saloon of the steamer in which each passenger keeps his oIvn account of the number of meals and drinks that he has taken during the journey.

This is not d joke. Ii is q brief dis sertation on astronomy. A variable star is one whose brightness has been observed to diminish or increase.

Algol is so far away from th1 earth that we do not hear the rush e. the wind as the two poadrrouS Do li"s rush around each other. Compared with the distance of Algol, the diameter oi the earth's orbit, which is about 1s.1. 0OO,0O0 miles. shrinks into an Invisible point When one reflects upon the vastness of such distances and the ai- most unimaginable activity displayed when two such tremendous bodies re- Yolvc around each other at q Droli giouS speed without hitch or q change ill the programme, the excitement about the amount of our gas bli.s seems puny indeed.-iort.aad Orcgt nian,

Strange Captivity.

The springbok of South Africa mi grate in vast herds, moving in con- pact body and carrying everything be- fore them. If flock of sheep be In the line Of march as 1t sometimes happens-it is surrounded, enveloped and becomes. willingly or unwillingly, part of the army. An African hunter tells the strange story of seeing lion in the midst of the antelopes, forced to join the march. It is supposed that the lion had sprung too far for his prey, that those upon whom he alighted re-
 coiled sufficiently to allow him to reach the ground. and then the pressure from both Hanks and the rear prevent ed him from escaping from his strange captivity If the springbok travels in such armies, how can those in the mid dle and rear find food? In this wise: Those in the front ranks, after they have eaten grecdily of the pasture, gradually fall out of the ranks to rest, while the hungry ones in the rear come up, and so the columns are all the while changing.

Swiss Funeral Customs.

The funeral customs among some of the Swiss are most peculiar At the death of q person the family inserts q formal black edged announcement in the papers asking for sympathy and stating that "the mourning urn' will be exhibited certain hours on a special day. Tn front of the house where the person died there Is placed q little black table, covered with a black cloth, on which stands q black jar. Into this the friends and acquaintances of the family drop little black margined wis iting cards, sometimes with few words of sympathy on them. The nrn is put out on the table on the day of the funeral. No one except men ever goes to the churchyard and they gen erally follow the hearse on foot, though sometimes carriages are used. The horses that draw the hearse have long black cloaks on, with places cut out for them to see through.

To Ascertain Your Brain Power.

Do you possess well formed and evenly balanced features! This is the rule; judge for yourself: The height of your forehead, from your hair to the line of your brow, should be the same as the length of your nose, and both should be commensurate with the depth from the base of your nose to the extremity of your chin, so making three equal divisions. Have you an eX cess or deficiency of brain power?
