Beacon Fires In China.

In China such beacon hres as spread
the alarm Of the Spanish armada
through England used to be the call
to war, Many years ago. the story
goes. the emperor sat with a beautiful
woman looking toward the beacon
hills. She would like to see those wait
ing piles lighted, and upon her insist
ence the thing was done. The greatest
excitement prevailed throughout the
provinces, and troops came hurrying
In from all sides. When the leaders
learned that no danger menaced. that
the fires We're lighted to satisfy the
whim Of woman, their wrath fed on
their lost confidence, and with the ac-
tual call to arms the response was slow
and unenthuslastic. 1t was a repetition
Of the old story In Wehster's spelling
book. Wolf" had been cried too often.

MAKE BELIEVE GIFTS.
a Curious Custom at the Courts Of
East Indian Princes.


There is a curious custom at the
courts Of the Indian princes. When a
British officer or a physician calls
upon rajah he is shown into the re-
ception or throne room, where sits the
rajah, surrounded by the great state
officers. After the exchange Of the
usual salutations one Of the officers
brings in tray on which are display
ed jewels and golden ornaments stud
ded with valuable stones, perhaps
worth $4,000 or more. The trayful OF
valuables is supposed to be a present
from the rajah to his visitor, and it is
offered first to the gentleman, who, in
clining his head, touches the edge of
the tray with the tips OF his fingers,
and it is then passed over to the lady,
who invariably accompanies the Brit
ish officer, If he is married, on such oc-
casions. She follows the example OF
her husband, and the tray and its con-
tents are then returned to the jewel
room. In lieu Of the unaccepted Jewels
a long necklace OF tinsel, Of little value.
is placed around the neck Of each,
where 1t remains during their stay
within the palace. There is a very
strict law against any British officer
accepting gift from a native prince.
Even when a doctor may have per-
formed some serious operation upon a
rajah, who, being grateful, wishes to
give-exclusive of a money fee, vary
ing from 1900 to $1,000, according to
the operation performed-a present Of
a shawl, golden cup or some similar
valuable, the doctor must obtain spe-
cial permission from the viceroy before
he dare accept the present. II any
officer accepts a gift of any value with
out such permission he may have to
resign. This rule was made because In
the old days, when the East India COM
pany governed India, an officers pick
fngs and the presents often extorted
from the rajahs were worth much
more to him than his salary

AntIquIty u the Mortaaaa.

Ine legal document known as a mort

dawn Of authentic history. The mort
gage comes directly down to us from
the Romans, but its antiquity is much
more remote than the Roman nation.
The Greeks, Carthaginians, Perslans,
Egyptians, Babylonians. all knew OF
the mortgage and daily used 1t in their

say that the custom Of giving mort
