A Handy Snuffbox.

A curious story is told as to how the
Rothschilds supported Carafa, the
composer. The latter was far from
rich. His principal income was de-
rived from a snuffbox. And this was
the way Of it: The snuffbox was given
to the author Of LA Prison d 'Edim-
bourgh" by Baron James de Rothschild
as a token of esteem. Carafa sold it
twenty-four hours later for Is ma
poleons to the same jeweler from
whom it had been bought. This be-
came known to Rothschild. who gave
it again to the musician on the follow
ing year. The next day it returned to
the jewelers.. The traffic continued
till the death Of the banker and longer
still. for his sons kept up the tradi-
ton. to the great satisfaction of
Carafa.
