GERMANY is ISOLATED.
May Be Meeting Between Edward

Vienna. March s. King Edward s
tour creates great interest, and more
especially abroad, from the point Of
view of it's political possibilities and
it's bearing on the t!geciras confer
ence. a meeting between King Ed
ward and Emperor William is talked
of in London and in Berlin, but no Of
fetal basis for such talk is ascertain
ed. 1t seems certain that no definite
plans have been laid by either mon
arch. and meeting is not likely to
occur unless the Algeciras conference
reaches an amicable conclusion, in

the monarchs may meet toward the

THE PEARL WORKERS.

a Bethlehem Industry Which Is Five
Hundred Years Old.
The chief industry Of bethlehem Of
Judaea is that Of the mother-of-pearl
workers.
The shells are brought from the Red
sea and in the hands Of native artisans
are polished and carved, the larger into
elaborate designs. The smaller are cut
up for rosnries and crosses. The work
Is all done by hand, and tho methods
are amazingly primitive to n spectator
from the home OF steam and electric
power. But the results are extraordi-
nary. The largest shell we saw was
carved in scenes from the birth OF
Christ, tho agony in the garden and
the crucifxion. and had the general ef-
feet Of delicate frostwork. Under the
magnifying glass every detail was seen
to be perfect in outline and in finish.
1t was exucuted to order for n wealthy
American and was to cost 500.
About $50 people make a living by
this industry, which is 500 years old.
In the shops the workmen sit upon the
floor, their benches in front Of them.
The mir is full Of whitish dust, and the
light admitted by the single window
and the open door Is so dim that the
exquisite tracery Of the wrought shells
Is mystery even before tho visitor
notes how few, simple and crude are
the instruments employed, .- Marion

they touched their beard and hair, and
women placed the finger tips Of the
right hand on their tresses.
Servants were obliged to have their
hair cut, and II freedman went into

by foster parents was obliged to hive
his beard shaved, and the shaving Of
beard and hair was a punishment in.

Of our ancestors dealt with punishment
"by skin and hair" for small offenses
and "by neck and hand" for greater

which they poisoned enemies. Cats

The curious little animals known 40

pearance Is supposed to have been tho
origin Of the dragon Of the medieval

all ordinary lizard, but is provided with
folds Of extensible skin which are
spread out by the long ribs and enable
the animal to glide through the air from
tree to tree In pursuit Of the Insects on

ST. SWlThiN AND RAIN.

The Legend of the Chapel over tho
Bi1heP's Grave.

ueular days are very numerous. The
legend Of st, Swithhf is nm EXAMPLE
that Will occur to every one:

For forty days 1t will remain:
st. swithin's day. IL thou be fair,
For forty days twill rain nae mair.
st. Swithin, bishop Of Winchester. ac-
cerding to the author Of THE Popular
Antiquities" was "a man equally not
ed for uprightness and humility. So
far did he carry the latter virtue that
on his deathbedf he requested to be
buried not within the church, but out
SIDE the churchyard ON the north of the
sacred building, where his corpse might
receive the eavesdroppings from .,thc
seet feet OF apG nas.ernnS his grave se ts9G 80
D rFRrNre ~. His lowly request
Was complied with, and in this neglect
ed spot his remains reposed till about
100 years afterward, when fit Of
plous indignation seized the clergy at
the fact that tho body Of 80 holy a
member Of their order was allowed to
occupy such O position, and on an ap-
pointed day they all assembled to con-
vey 1t with great pomp to the adjoin-
Ing cathedral Of Winchester. When
they were about TO commence the, cere-
mony heavy rain burst forth and con-
tinued without intermission for the
forty succeeding days. Tho monks In
terpreted this tempest AZ warning
from heaven Of the blasphemous nature
OF their attempt to contravene the d.
rection Of ct. Swithin, and instead Of
disturbing his remains they erected a
chapel over his grave" "St. Swithin is
the apples" iB the more po-
etical way Of describing St Swithin's
rain.
