!: The Water LILY.

Almost everybody has observed the
strange characteristic Of the water lily
bud opening Its petals at sunrise and
closing them again at sunset. It was
for this reason mainly that the an
clients held the water lily sacred to the
sun. Pliny says: It is reported that
In the Euphrates the flower OF the To-
tus plunges into the water at night, re-
naming there till midnight and to such
a depth that it cannot be reached with
the hand. After midnight it begins
gradually to rise, and as the sun rises
above the horizon the flower also rises
above the water, expands and raises
itself some distance above the element
In which It grows" 1t was also
through this popularity that HANGAR
Vile proved that the Egyptians con
sidsred the lily an emblem Of the
world as 1t rose from the waters Of the
deep. VI. 3ss#

A Real Ii aaniua

From the composers OF all time
Beethoven stands out By himself Ike
some gigantic tree towering up above
the rest Of the forest. He was the
greatest genius Of all, not for any one
thing that he did, hut because he was,
equally great IN every style Of music
that he essayed. The firstS test Of reaI
genius Is the ability to excel in ail
directions. ana for this reason I have
always looked upon Beethoven, Shake
speare and Turner as the three greatest
geniuses who have ever existed. Emil

TRAVELLING IN INDIA.
One Must Hire Native Servant OF
Endure Endless Trouble.

One Must Hire Native Servant Oh
Endure Endless Trouble.
Every one who goes to India to travel
or live at hotels, says the Chicago Rec
ord Herald, must have u personal serv-
ant, a native who performs the duties
Of valet, waiter and errand boy and
whatever else may be required OF him.
This is fixed custom Of the country,
to resist which brings endless trouble
to the traveller.
Many of the Indian hotels expect the
guests to bring all their own servants,
both chambermaids and walters, and
are consequently 80 short handed that
the traveller who comes without them
has usually to wait upon himself.
On the railways a native servant Is
quite Indispensable, for travellers are
required to carry their own bedding,
make their own beds and furnish theif
own towels. The company provides
bench to sleep on similar to those IN
American freight cabooses
Each car has also washroom and
sometimes water. But if the traveller
wishes TO De sure Oh washing LILO iaSo
In the morning and If he is wise he will
send his servant to the station master
before the train starts and ask to nave
the water tank filled. Then Hindoo
with goatskin full Of water Will
climb to the roof Of the car and fill it
and, having descended, will stand be-
fore the door and touch his forehead
every time the traveller looks toward
him till he receives penny.
At the eating houses along the road
the servant will have to raid the Ia
bles and shelves for food and bring 1t
to the car for his master, since no wait
ers are provided. In addition he VIII
hire baggage carriers and will attend
to all the details of catching trains and
engaging rooms.
A good servant can be hired for SIS
a month. Poorer bearers" as they are
called, can be engaged for 81 or 50 q
month and expect to "find" them
selves, but the traveller must pay rail-
way fare for them.
