While ON secret mission to Paris

the daughter of the president. st. Mes
min. The young lady was handsome
and kind, but while paying her his ad-
dresses he heard OF Mile. De Courte-
nav. who was reported to be beautiful,
well born and wealthy besides. Pru-
dence suggested that he should make
her the Baroness de Rosny, but he was
already half committed TO the other.
While he was bordering the subject
he arrived one day at an inn In Nogent
and found, to his dismay, that by an
unlucky chance both ladies were lodged
ia II. Mile. de st. Mesmin in the left
w.ng and Mile. de Courtenay Ia the
right. Both were ready to marry him.
and he was ready TO marry one OF

Through Thick qua This.

II monarchs have often permitted
themselves the Indulgence of making
puns the fact has not been recorded In
the pages OF history. One pun. how
ever. Is assigned TO King Frederick
William ". of Prussia.
Ii is said that on the occasion OF a
court bail he was standing near the
middle Of the dance hall in conversa-
ton with an exceedingly thiA ambas-
sador. In the haste and excitement
OF n fiery galop lieutenant Of the
bussars danced, with his partner, be-
tween the monarch and the person
whom he was addressing. and then,
seeing what he had done, he began to
stammer abject apologies and explana-
lions.
"Oh. that was nothing" replied the
king. with a hearty laugh. "A hussar
must 20 without fear through thick
and thin"
A whimsical glance from his own
portly figure to that Of the slender am
bassador accompanied this answer, and
the hussar felt himself not only par
doned. but invited to share In the
kings laugh.

A rhnakerax story.

Mrs. Bayard Taylor tells an Interest,"
ing story OF Thackeray In her memoirs
"On Two Continents" The Taylers
met Thackeray in London soon after
their marriage. Mrs. Taylor writes
that she found confirmed In his person
the characteristics which | had guessed
at from his works-a warm heart under
the mask of scathlng satire. On the
occasion OF a small dinner which ne
gave us be said to my husband, after
the gentlemen had rejolned the ladies'
in the drawing room: BY the bye, l
must give you a wedding present.
What shall 1t beT Then going to an
etagere he took down silver inkstand
and gave 1t TO his friend. In spite OF the
evident displeasure Of his youngest
daughter, usually so amiable, VINO ex-
claimed with all the naivete Of her fif-
teen years, oh, not that one, papa?
But papa gave no heed and few days
later sent us the gift with the inscrip-
ton engraved upon it, w. NJ. Thack-
cray to Bayard Taylor, Oct. q, 1851. "

Freak statue.

One of the most interesting freak
statues In England Is to the memory OF
Sir X. Holmes. 1t Is to be seen In the
church at Yarmouth. Isle Of Wight.
The funny thing about 1t Is that II
was not originally intended to repre-
sent that naval celebrity. 1t was scuip-
tured for and represents Louis XIV.
OF France and was being conveyed 10
that country when the vessel contain
ing 1t and also the sculptor was cap
tured by an English ship commanded
by Sir II. Holmes. The body was M
ished. the head being left for compie-
ton on Its arrival in France. On learn
ing who 1t was for, the English com
mander compelled the sculptor 10 mn
lsh it by chlsellng his (Holmes) head
on the kings body. Sir K. Holmes was
afterward made governor of the Isle
OF Wight and held this office from loo'
I'LL 1892. and after his death the statue
was erected to his memory

Ether and Matter.

The densest matter is more or less
porous. Gold will absorb mercury as a
lump of sugar will absorb water, show
ing there must be interstices or Inter
atomic spaces in 1t, but the ether shows
no such property. II drop Of water
could be magnihed sufficiently one
would ultimately see the different
atoms Of hydrogen and oxygen that
constitute the molecules Of water II
a small volume of ether could be thus
magnifed the indications are that the
ultimate part would look like the first,
which is the same as saying that 1t is
not made up Of dlscrete particles, but
fills space completely. This is express
ed by saying that the ether is con-
tinuous medium and Is hence incom'
parable with matter.

snow Bnnncrs.

In the Sierra Nevada mountains
when conditions are favorable for the
display, there occurs beautiful and
startling phenomenon Of nature. AT
times when (he wind drives up the
mountain sides In a certain direction
and with sufficient velocity there
stream out upon the air snow banners
from a hundred mountain peaks. They
are formed by the circling wind acting
upon the light snow and are thick and
dark at the top OF the mountain, like a
Flagstaff, then they float away broad
ly for a mile in length IN waves OF
iridescent light. This magnificent DIS
play Is rarely seen by other eyes thah
those Of savages, but sometimes 1t has
been the good fortune Of naturalist
to witness it when among the wild
beauties OF the mountain Businesses.

Sea Wafer md Coldp.

The delusion that sea water does not
give cold is accountable for much harm.
A chill may he caught by wetting from
sea water as quickly as by wetting
from any other water. There Is q
certain stimulation to the skin from
salt, no doubt. hut that does not pre-
vent chills from indiscriminate ex-
posure to wctting by salt water. and
chllls are fertile causes Of illness. Chill

An Ivory Mat.

Many people have never even heard
of such thing. and It Is not to be
wondered at. for these mats are ex-
ceedingly rare, and 1t is said by those
who know that only. three OF these
beautiful curiosities exist in the whole
world. The one we now write about Is
the largest one made. 1t measures )
by 4 feet and. though made In small
hill state in the north OF India, has an
almost Greek design for its border. 1t
was only used on state occasions, when
the rajah sat on it to sign important
documents. The original cost OF the mat
is fabulous. for e,4o0 pounds Of ivory
were used in its manufacture. The I'm
est strips Of ivory must have been tax
en- off the tusks, as the mat is as fex-
ible as a woven stuff and beautifully
fine.-London Graphic.

He STONED the Coughing.

One Sunday morning a clergyman
was greatly annoyed by the unusual
amount OF coughing among his congre-
CATION. He had not a strong voice and
could only be distinctly heard when the
people were still and attentive. As the
coughing went on, and even grew
worse, he suddenly stopped right in the
middle Of the sermon. All eyes were
instantly turned to the pulpit, every
cough was husbed and there was per-
feet silence.
MY friends" said the minister, with
a smile, at seems you stop when l
stop"
This gentle rebuke had the desired
effect. The people found that their
coughing could be kept down when
they liked to great extent and the
minister proceeded with his sermon
under far more favorable conditions.

The ancient parish clerk In England
had many functions. Letters were not
80 common in those days as today, and
the clerk was the learned man OF the
community. One OF his functions was
writing epitaphs, but this was not the
sum Of his accomplishments, as may
be seen from the advertisement Of John
Hopkins, clerk of Salisbury In the
eighteenth century:

Anc,ent TheatricaI programme,

Theater programmes were known
even in ancient times. though they
were then cf n very peculiar construc-
ton. In Greece and Rome they con-
sisted Of small tablets, which were
handed out to the audience at the en-
trance. Those occupying the best seats
obtained programmes beautifully work
ed In ivory, while those occupying the
cheaper seats were given tablets In
bronze.
The bronze tablets were distinguish
ed by a dove worked in the metal and
the term ''picclonerio," used in Italy
today as designating the lower priced
seats In the theaters, dates from this
antique custom.
