War ;i1rrom a Thumb bite.

{ Perhaps; the most portentous If In
nocent Incident in the proceedings
leading tip to England's war with
King Theodore of Abyssinia was "a
thumb Dite. The British consul was
practically a prisoner at his court
when DIR. Stern. British missionary,
called upon the liking Of kings" The
first mistake of the Englishman was
to seek an audience Immediately after
the king had dined too literally with
his court. The second was his choosing
as interpreters two utterly incompetent
men. The inefficiency of this pair so
angered the dusky monarch that then
and there he ordered them to be beat
en-. Mr.. Stern, unable to bear the
sight, turned around and bit his
thumb Now, he was not aware of
It, but. to bite the thumb is in Abys-
sinia atdeflance and threat of venge-
ance. The quick eye of the king
caught the innocent menace, and he
had the missionary also beaten. From
that sprang the war, the defeat of the
forces Of the king and his death by his
own hand in his ruined city Of Mag
dala.-London Standard

The Wreckers Of Sicily.

AS far back as the time Of Henry I.
there were royal grants Of 1.-THE islands
and their wrecks and frequent was
The phrase in centuries following With
royal encouragement, why should they
not be wreckers? One Sunday, long
ago, in Scilly, service was in progress
when there came the cry of "Wrecky'
The men started from their seats. In
moment there would have been a
stampede, but they covered back as
the minister sternly Numbered warn

voice arose. Lets all start fair!' he
shouted, throwing off impeding cassock

bored at his heels. Most curious of all
wrecks was that of bark, with a car
60 of beads, that went ashore 200 years
ago. So generous has been the ocean
with this treasure that throughout
these two centuries it has intermittent

The Bed and the Candidates,

Judge Harlan and James B. McCrea,
~ once canvassed Kentucky together
as the Republican and Democratic can
didates for governor. They travelled
about the state on joint debating trip
and in many small mountain places
had to sleep in the same bed. They
were warm personal friends and so
did not object to this intimacy. One
night Mr.. Harlan got into bed first.
Senator McCreary was not far behind,
and just as he entered the bed Judge
Harlan raised his bulky form and said
in his stentorian voice, "McCreary,
there is one thing certain-the next
governor of Kentucky is in this bed"
AS he spoke the bed Stats broke, and
Judge Harlan rolled to the floor. Sena.
tor McCreary caught and held himself
in bed, and, as Judge Harlan reached
the floor, said: John, you are right.
The next governor of Kentucky is still
in this bed"

Raters, sailabouts and Lar1xs

What is rater, a sailabout, lark
Is question commonly heard among
those not familiar with yachts and
technical racing terms. A rater is
thirty-eight feet long and carries the
double sails-sloop rig and jib. The
half rater is thirty-two feet long, car.
ries the same style sails as the rater
and usually gets five minute handi.
cap in rater races. The sailabout car
ries a single large sail and is built on
graceful lines, with rounded sides and
ends, while the lark has square sides
and ends and carries the single sail.
Few larks are built now Most Of the
yachts recently built have the double
centerboard. The centerboard pre-.
vents drifting sidewise, and the single
board is often entirely out Of water
during heavy winds; hence the use of
the double board.

The World as 1t Is.

A world without mistakes and with
out suffering would be world without
real men and women, without litera.
ture, without music, without painting
or sculpture and without love, and
even without history for history is a
record of struggles toward better and
higher things. Without obstacles to
overcome and errors to correct men
and women would lapse to level with
beasts in mentality. Intellectual and
spiritual development would cease and
souls not refined by the fire of ordeals
would die of something akin to fatty
degeneration. The races would perish
Of ennui or inanity. After all, it's a
pretty fair sort of world as it stands.

eat, drink and smoke their kiff I ate
their kiff and imagined my arm to be
mile long. l thought my foot as big

A Matter of Nose.

In spite of the important place given
to the nose as an index of character,
there is but little to be learned from it
in estimating the causes of an innate
bond between the mind and the fea-
lures. Most Of the correspondence
which have been remarked appear to
be Of radical order, but why Roman
nose first became associated with a
warlike and domineering disposition or
how long and thin nose became linked
with business prudence is more than I
can say. If we omit the changes
which take place in a nose during the
lifetime of it's possessor. there is scarce.
~ nasal popularity Of value to the
physiognomist which at the same time
is cosmopolitan. No Tartar or Hotten.
tot, however warlike, could give proof
of it in this way. Japan has shown
that she possesses plenty Of men with
military aptitude, but no Wellingtonian
nose can be found within her borders
Again, no Chinese nose is long and
thin, yet John is not without certain
aptitude at driving bargains.-Black.

Music and the Turtle.

The Egyptians, according to the sage
Apollodorus, credit their Hernles or
Mercury with the invention of music
under the following circumstances:
The Nile, having overfowed it's banks
and inundated nearly all Of Egypt, on
it's return to it's banks left on it's
shores various dead animals and
among the rest tortoise, the flesh
having dried and wasted in the sun
until nothing remained in the shell but
cartilages. These, being frightened by
the drying heat, became sollorous.
Mercury, walking along the banks Of
the river, happened to strike his foot
against this shell, was so pleased with
the sound produced that the idea Of
the Tyre suggested itself, and he con-
structed Tyre of the shell of large
tortoise, which he strung with the
sinews of dead animals. Dryden
wrote:
Less than a goo they thought there could
not dwell
Within the hollow of that shell
That spoke so sweetly.

The Sea Horse.

This fish is found in the Atlantic
ocean around the coast Of Spain, the
south Of France, in the Mediterranean
and in the Indian ocean. Sea horses
are very small and have been found
often curled up in oyster shells. The
head is much like that Of a horse, and
the rings around the body and tail re-
semble those Of some caterpillars. The
habits Of these fishes are singular and
interesting They swim with waving
motion, and frequently wind their tails
around the weeds and rushes. They
have fins to sustain them in the water
and even in the air. They live on
worms, fishes, eggs and substances
found in the bottom Of the sea.

Widows,

Widows exist in all countries, thus
counterbalancing the matrimonial de.
cadence which might otherwise result
from timid men. Widows are clinging
by temperament and attach themselves
readily to any object that can't help
Itself. It is generally considered un-
lucky to meet widow on dark piaz-
"a by the light Of the moon. In many
countries to be kissed by widow
means endless trouble. Widows are
frequently accompanied by children,
whose number is constantly liable to
increase. They roam at large over
the principal sections, and no man. is
safe when they are near. All the per.

The Oldest Tunnel.

The oldest known tunnel in the world
Is that Of Siloah, near Jerusalem. It
was used as an aqueduct. The famous
inscription, discovered some years ago,
celebrates the first meeting Of the dig.
gers from both sides. Newspapers did
not appear in those days, and so the
event cannot be exactly dated, but it
most probably took place under King
Hezekiah, about 700 B. c.. and is an
interesting testimony to the high state
Of civilization among the Jews at a
time when Europe was inhabited by
savages.-American Israelite.

PaDvrna.


The papyrus used by the ancient
Egyptians was made from the stems
Of a peculiar water reed growing in all
parts of Egypt. The outside layer Of
the plant was removed, and beneath
this there were found number Of lay
ers Of a delicate, pithy membrane.
These, being separated, were placed in
layers. A second layer was laid at
right angles to and above the first and
sometimes third over the second.
Heavy pressure was then applied, and
the layers were firmly cemented into a
fair article of paper. No gum other
than what was contained in the plant
Itself was used in the process. The
papyrus was very much stronger than
the average paper made by the mod
ern machines. The sheets were COM
monty made from six to twelve inches
square.
