A Nice Distinction.

with a sharp tongue. Jones had come
home about in the morning rather
the worse off for few highballs. AS
soon as he opened the door his wife,
who was waiting for him in the accus-
toned place at the top of the stairs,
where she could watch his uncertain
ascent, started upbraiding him for his
conduct Jones went to bed and when
he was almost asleep could hear her
still scoldng him numerically. He
dropped off to sleep and awoke after
couple of hours, only to hear his wife
remark, Il hope all the women don't
have to put up with such conduct as
this" annie" said Jones, "are you
talking again or yet"'-Kansas City

A story Of Ole Bull.

A curious tale of Ole Bull is told in
q book on violins and violinists. It
seems that in 1884, being then twenty
one years Of age, the famous violinist
wandered to Paris The cholera was
raging and Malibran singing. He went
to hear her, and his landlord decamped
with his possessions, including his vio-
lin. He was speedily reduced to ex-
tremity. During the last dinner that
he was able to pay for he made the
acquaintance of a remarkable man. To
this stranger Ole Bull confided his mis-
cries. At the conclusion the stranger
said abruptly, ''Well, I will do some
thing for you if you have courage and
5 francs" 81 have both,' said Bull.
"Then 60 to Frascati's tonight at 10
o'clock, pass through the first room,
go into the second, where they play
rouge ct noir, and when a new taille
begins put your 5 francs on rouge and
leave it there Bull did as directed,
and when his francs had become 400
he took them UP after an episode with
woman who attempted to take them.
Red continued to win, and had he left
his money longer he would have won
an independent sum- The stranger,
who was present as his elbow, was
Vidocq, the French detective, already
q European celebrity.

Turkeys Way of Raising Revenue.
The land in all Turkey and her de-
tendencies belongs to the reigning sui
tan and is only occupied at his will. It
is divided among those who wish to
cultivate it at nominal rental of one
fifth of the produce, which goes direct
ly to the crown. Three-ffths more are
taken from the lessee on other pre-
texts, all for the maintenance Of the
government, the pasta in each district
having the authority to lease the
ground and collect the taxes, which
may be in kind or money. If crops are
short, they take four-fifths of all the
man has in animals and even in house
hold utensils, sometimes all his posses
sions, to make up the deficiency which
Providence has withheld Everything
that can produce, be it a tree beast,
fowl, worm or the labor of man and
his family, is subject to the four-fifths
tax. Those who toll at any labor or
trade other than agriculture are taxed
also pro rata according to their wages
and must pay or go to prison.-Pear-
sons Weekly

Clans EGGS.

The CLAIMS eggs are carried by the
mother on her gills. When there are
fish in the water with them the mother
CLANS discharge the eggs which soon
hatch, but if there are no fish they
carry the eggs until they decay. The
reason of this strange behavior is this:
When the eggs are set free in the
water they soon hatch and the little
ones swim about until they find some
fish to which to attach themselves.
They live for time on the mucus of
the fish and then drop of, sink to the
bottom and form burrows for them
selves. This curious semiparasitic life
is no doubt reversion to the habit of
some ancient ancestor.
