Brahe'a Work in Astronomy.

1t was the great eclipse of Aug. 81,
1860, that turned Tycho Brahe into an
astronomer. He was in his 14th year
at the time, a Danish boy of noble or
igin, and had been destined first for
the army and then for the law. But
the accuracy with which the eclipse
was predicted impressed him with the
belief that astronomy was a divine
thing, and thenceforward he devoted
his life to it. The debt of astronomy
to Tycho Brahe, not only for his owr
work, but as the man who shaped
the genius of Kepler, can scarcely be
overestimated.

VoHldu WTlter Explains FROM WHAT
Type She Drew Heroine.
Kate Jordan, the author of Thine,
the Comedian" was asked by a seek
er after knowledge why it was that
h modern school of women writers
all take for their heroines a girl of
backbone and of ~steadfast purpose.
THE girl heroine" said this critic,
never discovers that she is beautiful
until she is &C."
my heroine knew just how she
looked, but she didn't care. After she
fell in love she began to care a lot.
That is right and natural. You seem
to think women naturally are dishon-
est. What less could a girl do in com
mon honesty than my heroine did?
Having money that she didn't want
on account of its associations, and
that she was not entitled to, she la
bored to restore it. Hundreds of men
are doing that thing every day, labor
Ing honestly to repay their debts, and
yet you seem to think it remarkable
that a woman does It,"

Few Corrections.

A few things picked up from child's schoolbook: Never say, Il don't think it will raln." What you mean Is, II do think 1t will not rain." All over the world" is bad; say Over all the world.' "The reason why Is not only incorrect, but doesn't sound as we'll as "The req son that" In the King James version of the Bible, quoted by some authori- ties as standard of pure English. one may find the following, which occurs In Isaiah xxxyii, 36: "Then the angel of the Lord went forth and smote in the camp Of the Assyrians hundred and fourscore and five thousand, and when they arose early ill the morning. be- hold they were all dead corpses." In other words. the corpses arose early in the morning and found themselves dead. Don't say "A man fell off the dock" A man might fall into a dock but 10 say that he fell off dock Is no better than to say he fell off hole.

THE GOLDEN FLEECE.
Most Highly Priz"d of the Surviving
 Orders Of (hiNaIry.

Of all the orders of mcdiaeval chiv- airy which have survived the shock of successive revolutions on the continent Of Europe since the great Cataclysm of 17S9. that of the Golden Fleece is per haps the most distn %uished and the most highly coveted Ay pcrsonages Of royal birth or of iIlu>trio1js patfiei&n lineage.
 The bad 2e of tie order is the figure of q sheep iH#e!nboSsed gold suspend ed from 6 heavy chain of gold. The full robes consist of d long mantle of crimson velvet. cut i'll the fashion of a sacerdotal cope, richly embroidered at the borders with cmblematic devices of stars, half moons and feeces in gold and lined with white satin over a doublet and hose of crimson damask. The full robes also comprise a chap eron," or hood, with a long flowing streamer of black satin, but this head gear has In modern times been gen. erally dispensed with.
 Originally the robes of the order. which was founded in 1429 by Philip the Good, duke of Burgundy, were of crimson cloth lined with white lambs wool, and this circumstance has some what strengthened the theory that the golden fleece was instituted by Philip the Good in grateful recognition. of the immense treasures which the Duke of Burgundy had acquired from the wool of the flocks reared on hfs vast estates in Flanders Be 1t as it may, the woolen costume was changed in 1473 at chapter held at Valenciennes for the more costly materials of vel vet, tafreta, damask and gold embroid- ery.-London Telegraph.

SINGULAR CUSTOMS.
Bulgarian Ceremonies That Come
 From Pagan Rites.

Bulgarian Ceremonies That Come
 From Pagan Rites.
 The people of Varna, on the coast of the Black sea, in Bulgaria, have sin gular custom which they observe at the feast of the Epiphany, which takes place on Jan. 6. The clergy. both Greeks and >Bulgarians, accompanied by. an immense crowd, go to the sea shore, carrying with them wooden cross. The cross is thrown by the clergy into the sea, and thereupon the strongest swimmers jump In after it. The best swimmer gets it. of course and brings it in triumph to shore.
 The Earna people have still more singular salt water custom on the same day. After dark at night all the newly married men in the town are conduct ed, with bands of music and singing, to the shore and made to take three successive plunges into the icy water They are then conducted home, where their brides, accompanied by their rela- tiyes and friends. have been awaiting them in state After this there is feast ing and merry making. These singular customs are believed to have Pagan origin.

Photo Amateurs a Study.

One of the most interesting places in New York to study human nature Is at counter in a photographers shop where the customers come to get anna teur photographs they have had devel- oped and printed. The anxiety they display to get the products of their "shots' would seem to be out of all proportion to the results, when you catch a glimpse of them, and their dis appointment if the prints are not ready Is almost as keen, apparently, as if some important business transaction had fallen through. And when they do get the prints their faces are even more. interesting. The satisfaction of these amateur photographers over set of fairly good pictures is absolutely idiotic, and their dlsmay at lot of failures is tragic. The frankness of these exhibitions is not the least inter esting phase of the whole thng.-Sew York Press.

All substances, even eggs, are poison ous when they are injected in certain quantities into the circulatory system of an animal A French investigator has taken the powdered yolk of a ducks egg. treated it with a 20 per cent solution of salt and injected 1t in- to the veins of an animal until it died. In order to kill a rabbit tifty-hve grains of the substance were required for each pound of the rabbits weight The yolk of hens egg is less poisonous. but that of d turtle more so than that of a duck The abumcn of eggs Is also poisonous.
