1.-THE favorite horse of the Chinese
Emperor Tsi," said a Chinese states
man, died through negligence on the
part Of the royal master of the horse.
The emperor was so enraged at this
that he drew his sword and would
have run the careless functionary
through the body.
But the learned mandarin, Yen
tse, struck up the emperor's sword,
saying:
"Sire, this man has not yet been
formally accused of any crime. He de-
serves to die but his accusation should
come first. 1t is the law
"'Well,' said the emperor, tell me
what he has done
"Llsten, you rogue said the man

of the horse-listen to catalogue Of
your heinOus offenses. In the first
place, you have allowed a horse to
perish that his majesty had intrusted
to your care. In the second place, II
is on your account that the emperor
became so exasperated that he was
actually on the point Of disgracing
himself in all his peoples eyes by
killing a man for the sake of a horse

ciating the rebuke. Let him CO. He

Three Kinds of Lightning.

The Etruscans Of Old believed that
there were three kinds of lightning
one incapable of doing any injury, an
other more mischievous in its character
and consequently only to be issued with
the consent of n quorum of twelve
gods, and a third carrying mischief in
its train and for which a regular de-
cree was required from the highest di-
whites in the Etruscan skies. Curl
ously enough, modern scientific men
agree with the view that there are
three kinds of lightning, but their vari-
cites differ from the Etruscans. The
first is known as forked lightning and
runs in zigzag lines, the second as sheet
lightning, because it is seen in body,
and the third as globe lightning, as II
sometimes runs in the shape OF ball.
The latter variety il rather slow in
moving.

rae casertn CameIIia Tree.

In the days of its glory the palace at
Caserta of the king Of Naples had
among its features a so called English
garden, made in 1872 by order of Marie
Caroline of Austria. 1t was bright with
flowers and wonderful rare oriental
plants and trees. so that it was re-
nowned throughout the world, but the
crown and glory of all consisted in a
camellia tree, a plant then unknown
In Europe. The seeds were collected
as though flakes of gold, and the queen
used to give them and cuttings of this
camellia as presents to her friends,
These cuttings were most highly priced,
and thus it has become a European
flower so much so that the eXporta-
tlon of camellias is an extensive indus
try in central Italy, and in Germany
there are vast fields of EN-. In its
palmy days the Caserta plant had eight
branches the largest of which was
twelve inches in diameter, the whole
being thirty feet high. This mother
plant was in a flourishing condition up
to a few years ago, but lately the gor-
geous garden has been allowed to fall
into decay, and with it the glorious
camellia.-Pall Mall Gazette.

Birds HIVE Favorite Plants.

Like man, birds have their favOrite
plants. 1t has been discovered that the
goldfnch is passionately fond of apple
blossom. This may be because its IA
vorite building site is in the lichen
covered forks of apple trees, but apart
from such attachment the bright little
finch frequently spends hours tearing
the petals into tiny fragments. Though
the nightingale never builds in the
thorn boughs, it loves to sing on may
laden branches, often in the very midst
of the fragrant blossoms. 1t is some
what peculiar that most birds avoid
the COW parsnip. owing. no doubt, to the
unpleasant greenish smell emitted by
this umbelliferOus plant. Small birds
very often build in less secure places,
but the parsnlp, gigantic and strong as
II is, is left severely alone.-London

The Word "Nice.0

mice" is one of the exceptional
words which have risen on the scale
and improved with age. 1t is from the
Latin "nescius" and originally signi-
fed ignorant. To Chaucer it regularly
meant foolish-"wise and nothing
nice" In Sponsors time it still meant
effeminate. From general foolishness
there was probably first a speciallza-
ton to foolish fussiness about trifles.
Then the idea of ignorance dropped
out, and the word meant particular
about details, accurate. 1t was credit
able to be mice" observer or to
show mice" judgment. And so in the
end the positively agreeable meaning
Of today was evolved.

themselves, but is contained in thou
sands of hollow knobbed hairs which

as it is impossible to shave off these
