Eccentric Frsnehman Carried Resstn-
ment to the Grave.

There has Just died at Belley.
France, an old man Of 70, who during
his lifetime was notorious for his &c
centric and misery habits. though he
was in possession OF an income OF
$4,000. His funeral was attended BY
a large number Of relatives, who we're
astonished to discover only a few cop
pers in the house after the funeral.
The will was then opened. and it read
as follows: MY dear relatives: l
am afraid you are going TO be disap,
pointed. l know that none Of you
have any sort of affection for me, and
that II you come to my funeral it Will
be in the hope of dividing up between
you whatever l may leave behind me.
I now inform you that l have left no
money whatever. / sank the whole
Of my fortune some years ago in a life
annuity. All the money that remained
over and above what / spent Of the
annuity / have given away n burned.
/ hope this will be a little surprise
for you" A search revealed, however,
1000 worth of annuity stock, the
coupons Of which appeared to have
remained unpaid, but on going to the
bank to have these coupons cashed
the heirs discovered that the coupons
had been paid, but at the special re-
quest of the old gentleman, who had
given a separate receipt for each
coupon, they had not been cancelled.
This is only a little surprise l am
keeping back for my heirs" he said.
It appears that on the occasion Of
the annual festival the ord man de-
liberately burned $4,000 worth Of
bank notes, which he found he had
been unable to spend.

ORIGIN OF CHINESE LILIES.
Story as Told and How the Bulbs
Brought Good Luck.

Very few people who see and admire
the beautiful Chinese lilies know the
reason why this particular flower is
held in such favor in the orient. This
is the story Of the origin as told by a
Chinaman.
Years and years ago a member Of
the celestial empire had two wives
whom he loved dearly because each
had borne him a son. While they we're
still lads the father died and in set
ting up the estate some difficulty was
encountered, for the man left his heirs
two pieces Of land, one a strip lying In
a fertile and beautiful valley, the
other a small ribbon Of land bordering
the bed Of a narrow stream. The for
mer land was known to grow anything
the country produced, while the latter
was counted utterly worthless.
1t was at first proposed that each OF
the two strips be divided in half and q
section Of each be given to the two
heirs. But the mothers could not agree
upon the division and 1t was finally
arranged that one son should take the
rich land, while the other should take
the sterile piece.
The valley strip yielded bountiful
harvests season after season and the
rocky n gave nothing until one day
the boy owner happened to notice a
tiny white, sweet-scented flower
blooming among the rocks and after
a careful study and examination 1t was
found to be the only one Of its kind in
China. The flower grew from a bull
and the boy discovered that these
bulbs could be transplanted to similar
rocky soil without destroying theil
growth.
Soon the bulbs were IN great de
mand and when 1t was learned tina
the flowers brought good luck to tn,
owner OF the plant the boy had all h,
could do to supply the market. From
the sale of the bulbs he grew enor
mously wealthy, while his brothe
never made more than a good Twin
out Of his valley nronertv

THE thing that surprised me most
when | began to teach" said the in
structor Of a class Of adults in manual
training, was the number Of people
who can not tell, instinctively, the
right hand from the left. Fully a
third Of my pupils hesitated a moment
before obeying instructions to do this
thing or that thing with the right
hand or the left. The thing that fixes
the proper hand in their minds finally
is some incident in which that hand
has figured. BY recalling that story
they know which hand to use. One of
the brightest nj / know declares
that the only way she can tell one
hand from the other is TO remember
the time when, as a child, she tried

Egypt is having a boom, and that
explains in part the old mystery where
all the gold goes to. There is a crazy
land speculation in Cairo, the cotton
crop is increasing at good prices, the
area Of arabic land is increased by
the new Nile dam, rain is more COM
mon from the same cause. And gold
is being boarded in the oriental way
usual when times are good. A con-
sulsr report says that nearly SIC ,0O0,-
600 was sent from London recently,
but 1t has all been absorbed. The sell
ers Of the cotton crop have the money
boarded in their houses. The gold.
beaters' bazaar Is crowded all the time
and it is estimated that each week
many pounds sterling in gold coin are
melted or beaten into bracelets, neck
laces and chains. That gold is always
boarded in Egypt is proved by the
fact that some George III. s~overeignl
are coming into circulation.
