An OCEAN IN THE AIR.

The Queer Superstition That Once
Prevailed I'm England.
The curious superstition that there Ia
an ocean above the clouds Is Illus
trated by the following strange story
by an old English writer: zone Sunday
the people Of certain village were
coming out Of church on a thick,
cloudy day when they saw the anchor
Of a ship hooked to one Of the tomb
stones. the cable which swas tightly
stretched, hanging down from the air.
The people were astonishad, and while
they Were consulting about it suddenly
they saw the rope move as though
some one labored to pull up the an
Choir. The anchor, however. still held
fast by the stone, and great noise
was heard in the air like the shouting
Of sailors. Presently sailor was seen
sliding down the cable for the purpose
Of unfixing the anchor. When he had
just loosened it the villagers seized
hold Of him, and while in their hands
he quickly died, Just as though he had
been drowned.
About an hour later the sailors
above, hearing no more Of their COM
rade, cut the cable and sailed away. In
memory of this extraordinary event
the people Of the village made the
hinges of the church doors out Of the
iren Of the anchor" It is further stat
ed that these hinges fare still to be
seen there" q bit of evidence much
like Munchausen's rope wherewith he
once climbed to the moon. If you
doubted the story you were confronted
with the rope
There ia another queer tale about
this aerial ocean. "a merchant of Bris-
tol," it is said, "set sail with bis cargo
for Ireland. Some time after, while his
family were at supper, knife sudden.
ty fell IN through a window on the Ia
BILE. When. the merchant returned and
saw the knife he declared it to be his
own and said that on such a day, at
such an hour, while sailing IN an un-
known part Of the sea, he dropped the
knife overheard, and the day and the
hour were found to be exactly the time
when it fell through the window" Ali
OF which was once implicitly believed
by many and regarded as incontroyert-
ible proof Of the existence Of a sea
above the sky. One Is at a loss to con-
lecture how that Unknown part Of the
sea" connected with the rest Of it. A
physical geography showing this would
be no small curiosity.

Blood Thicker Than Water.

There never was a time when the
British people were more sympathetic
to the Americans or more anxious to
see good influences triumph over bad
IN the United States. At this moment
PRESIDENT Roosevelt is what he has
been for many years-one of the most
popular figures in the English-speak-
ing world. To our people he stands
Tor whatever is honorable, high
minded, courageous, wholesome and
sincere in the conduct of public
affairs, and we do not hesitate to saw
that if he were to visit England he
would have reception which would
rival that given to Garibaldi at the
height of his popularity, and that it
would be reception in which every
class in the community would join
with equal pleasure. It is not too
much to say, indeed, that it is very
difficult to find Englishmen or En-
gllshwomen who have not a warm
place in their hearts for the president
OF the United States.-London Spec

healed. He was forced to admit that
the girl still had power to trouble him.
At times his strained nerves would re-
lax to no other device than the pictur.
ing OF her as his own. Exactly in the
measure that he INDUCED this would
his pride smart. With a budding gift
for Eegation he could imagine her car
Ing for nothing but his money; and
there was that other picture, swift and
awful, pantomime in shadow, with
the leering yellow faces above it.
In the far night, when he awoke to
sudden and hungry aloneness, he would
let MS arms feel their hunger for her.
The vision Of her would be flowers and
music and sunlight and time and all
things perfect to mystify and delight,
to satisfy and-greatest of all boons-
to unsatisfy. The thought of her be-
haven where be was free to choose his
nook and lie down away from all that
was not her, which was all that was
not beautiful. He would go back ia
seek the lost sweetness of their first
meeting; to mount the poor dead belief
that she would care for him-that he
could make her care for him-and en-
dow the thing with artificial life, try
ing to capture the faint breath of it;
but the memory was always feeting,
attenuated, like the spirit Of the mem.
DRY OF perfume that had been elusive
at best. And always, to Danish what
Joy even this poor device might bring;
came the more vivid vision Of the
brutal, sordid facts. He forced himself
to face them regularly as a penance
and corrective.

EAGLES IN BATTLE,
The Daring and Skill of These Fierce
Birds of Prey.

Birds of Prey.
Ornithologists are inclined to dis
courage the iGea that eagles are in the
habit of attacking large animals, but
contest witnessed by an observer dis
pels such a theory. The battle was
between an eagle and stag.
The bird singled out from a herd one
particular buck, which it succeeded in
driving from the rest. 1t struck the
animal with it's powerful wings, knock
ed it down and finally killed it. A still
more remarkable spectacle is we'll au-
thenticated. An eagle attacked a
fawn in the highlands of Scotland.
The cries Of the little one were an
swered by it's dam, which sprang upon
the eagle and struck it repeatedly with
it's forefeet. Fawn, deer and eagle
rolled down declivity, the bird was
dislodged from it's hold and the fawn
rescued.
Many traditions are extant as to the
carrying off Of children by eagles. The
most recent case bearing close scru-
tiny is one which happened in South
&AAA@S~' A. DOO1 1d1AC1 "AOSS SLOCh
had been harried by eagles lay in am
bush for the robbers and saw one Of
them descend and carry off the FIVE
year-old child Of one of the Kaffir serv-
ants. He shot the bird, which, with
the child still clutched in it's grip, fell
into thorn bush. The bird was dead,
but the child was little hurt.
Two eagles will stalk covert in
concert. While one conceals itself the
other beats about the bushes with
great screaming, driving out its quarry
for the hidden eagle to swoop down
upon. An even more insidious method
has been observed. An eagle seeing a
sheep on the edge of precipice few
at 1t, screaming shrilly and with force
full beat of wing hurled it into the val
ley below, where it could devour it at
its leisure. In the light of such rec
ords there is good reason for believing
the legend of the eagle dropping tor
toise on the bald head Of Eschylus,
the Greek poet, and so causing his
death.

BOOK ILLUMINATION,
An Early Example of the Artistic
Culture of the Ancients.
ITO BE CONTINUED. I

An Early Example of the Artistic
Culture of the Ancients.
The underlying thought which has in
spired illumination from it's very be-
ginning is more interesting even than
the gorgeous pages which pass beyond
our power Of appreciation and defy
our comprehension. To the ancients
the rarest gems in all the world were
the gems of thought The book was
the tangible and visible expression of
mans intellect, worthy of the noblest
setting. Its covers might be made Of
tables of beaten gold inlaid with pre-
cious jewels, it's words might be writ
ten in minium Of rare brilliancy
brought from India or Spain or in
Byzantine ink made from pure orien-
tai gold upon parchment soft as velvet
made from the skins of still born kids,
While upon the ample margins could
be displayed miniatures and decora-
tons portraying the highest skill of the
great artists of the day.
The earliest example Of illumination
is a papyrus in the Louvre in Paris,
which contains paintings representing
funeral ceremonies executed in bright
colors, touched in it's high lights with
penciled gold. Although we find fire.
quent mention of some poem written
in gold, of some magnificent volume or
codex of colored vellum or some col
lection of miniatures or of some mag
nificent gift book decorated for prince
or church, yet this simple, imperfect
fragment at the Louvre is the sole
tangible evidence we have that so
obvious form Of artistic culture as
the art of Illumination was known to
the long period of classical antiquity
or to the later luXuries of the life of
Athens and Corinth, of Pergamum and
Epnesus, of Cyzicuus or Rhodes, SYRIA
cuse or Tarentum, Of Sybaris, of Pom
peii and of Rome
With the invention of printing the
demand for the illumination and the
scribe became gradually less, and final
~ by the end Of the sixteenth century
illumination ceased to be an art. The
book as the developer of the people in
science and literature and in learning
generally had crowded out the book as
an object of art. 1t need not have
done this, perhaps, but as matter of
fact it did.-Boston Transcript.
