VIRGINS GARLANDS.

Memorials In an English Church to
Girls True to First Love.
There are seven virgins garla nds"
still in existence in Minsterley church,
Salop, the first Of them bearing the
date 1854 and the last 1851.
They consist Of silk ribbons and
paper, ball shaped, and are covered
with rosettes, the inside center of the
cane or wire frame supporting q pair
of paper gloves. They represent ro-
mantle custom Of very ancient origin
and are sacred to the memory Of girls
who while betrothed in their youth
lost their intended husbands by death,
yet remained true to their first loves.
Each maiden designed her own gar.
land, and at her death this simple en-
blem was borne before her by the vii
lage lasses, the white gloves being aft
erward added. After the obsequies
these garlands were suspended in the
village church on q rod bearing at its
extremity a heart In the shape Of an
escutcheon, upon which the initials and
date were inscribed. These were origi-
nally fixed above the maiden's pew.
Some of the earliest and forgotten
garlands were composed Of real flow
ers, but later the covered hoops de-
scribed were substituted.
There Is q passing allusion to this
simple memorial Of the early dead"
In Hamlet" 'Yet here she is allowed
her virgin Grants" Grants" signifying
garlands.-Iondon Graphic.

LanCuaWe In France.

There are several districts in France
where the very ancient tongues still
survive. Basque is spoken by about
100000 persons, who are naturally
proud Of language that is their ex-
elusive possession, for 1t is unlike ev-
cry other spoken tongue, and the as
sertion is commonly made that to IN
derstand it one must have learned it In
the cradle. This peculiar property
gives in the mind of the Basque people
support to their belief that 1t was the
language of Adam and Eve. The same
claim is advanced, though, for Breton.
The Romans when they conquered
Gaul compared Breton to croaking Of
ravens. About million people speak
Breton. Then there are Flemish, still
spoken by a comparatively small num-
Der In northeastern France, Catalan In
the Pyrenees-Orientales and Langue-
doc and Provencal, whose gradual ex-
tinction has been delayed mainly by
the efforts Of a few literary enthusi-
asts.

Did you ever see bluefish charge q
school Of menhadsn at sea? That is
something worth seeing. The bluefish
throw their lines forward until they al
most surround the menhaden, and they
attack them flank and rear. The men-
baden fairly make the water boil in
their efforts to escape, while all around
the enemy is at them tearing relent-
lessly. Into all this commotion comes
a great shark. It's a picnic for the
shark, a school of menhaden all herded
up for its benefit. 1t swims leisurely
into the midst Of them, opens its mouth
and takes in half dozen menhaden at
q gulp. It swims around and bites out
half a dozen more from the school. 1t
gorges itself without effort. But the
menhaden are not nearly as much dis
turbed by the presence Of the monster
swimming about among them as they
are by the charging bluefsh. The shark
takes half a dozen fish or more at a
bite, while the bluefish only bites a
piece out of a single fish, but there is
only one shark, while there may be
thousands of bluefish plunging and
tearing necessarily and killing and
manning at every stroke. The sharks
brute, but under such circumstances
the menhaden have less of fear than
they have Of contempt for him.

The Size of the SUN.

The sun, provided we measure only
the disk seen with the smoked glass, is
$4,000 miles in diameter. e., 10S
earths could be comfortably ranged
side by side across the disk. To cover
the surface would require many thou
sands. To fill the interior we should
need 100000 On a smaller scale we
might represent the sun by ball two
feet in diameter and the earth by q
good sized grain of shot. Let the sun
be followed out, then place the earth
at its center and let the moon revolve
about it at it's real distance of 240, 900
miles. There would yet remain nearly
100000 miles Of space between the
moons orbit and the inclosing shell Of
the sun. Indeed to journey from one
side of the sun, to the other, through
the center, would take one Of our swift
express trains nearly two and a half
years. So vast globe must be heavy.
Since it's density Is only one-quarter
that of the earth 1t only weighs as
much as $500 earths, or two octil-
lions of tons. The attraction of gravity
on it's surface would cause q man
whose weight was $50 pounds to weigh
two tons.

M. A. p. and vouched for by a well

some days the lady, Miss B., was
informed the photograph was not a

was informed that the photograph was
a failure. There was a third sitting.
In two days time she received an
urgent letter from the photographer
asking her to come up to bis studio
and to bring a friend with her. Miss
B. went, accompanied by her mother.
and was shown the amazing results of
the three sittings. The pictures Of the
girl herself were quite good, but In
each plate there was to be seen stand

holding dagger In his uplifted hand.
The features, though faint, were clear

them as those Of her fiancee, an officer

Ancient Roses.
Flinders Petrie, the archaeologist,
while excavating among some ancient
Egyptian tombs, found a wreath OF
roses which had been bound into a
garland and buried with the dead thou
sands OF years ago. NJ. Crepin, the bot
anist and microscopic made a care
full examination Of this queer find and
prepared paper ON it which he read
before the Royal society of Belgium.
From this paper it appears that in
places where the flowers were matted
together they still retained their color
as well as a very faint odor. The
species to which they belong is now ex-
tinct, but a rose resembling them in
several particulars is still grown IN
Egypt and Abyssinia. - ~
