Lisbon In Pepys' Times.

Pepys' Diary gives an unaattering
picture of the Lisbon court in his day.
On Oct. II. 1861, he talked with Cap
tain Lambert, fresh from "Portugall,"
who told him it was "a very poor,
dirty place. mean the city and court
of Lisbon; that there are no
glass windows, nor will they have any;
that the king has his meat
sent up by dozen of lazy guards and
in pipkins sometimes to his own table
and sometimes nothing but fruits and
now and then half hen. And now
that the infanta is become our queen
she is come to have whole hen or
goose to her table, which is not ordi-
nary" Some few months later, when
some ''Portugall ladys" had come to
London, Pepys found them mot hand
some and their farthingales strange
dress. I find nothing in them
that is pleasing, and see they have
learnt to kiss and look freely up and
down already and l do believe will
soon forget the recluse practice Of
their own country

The Crows and tho Snake.

"Strollihg in Burma one day." says
writer in the London Field, II came to
a ditch bridge, and about ten yards off
there was a mass Of black soft mud
caused by buffaloes rolling. On the
bridge was small brown snake about
two feet in length. This snake is an
ordinary jungle inhabitant and is very
venomous. Surrounding him were q
mob of some dozen crows. Whenever
the snake attempted to escape the
nearest bird would jump in and jerk it
back by the tail. The crows generally
kept just out Of the snakes reach, but
on three separate occasions the birds
were struck.
Immediately on being bitten crow
few over to the wet mud and swal-
lowed three or four mouthfuls with
out pause. 1t then perched up in a
tree and took no further part in the
fight. The incident ended in the snake
escaping between the planks Of the
bridge. What interests me is why did
the stricken birds eat the mud? Was
It taken as kind OF antidote or what
was the reason?"

Columns Of St. Mark.

Two memorable granite columns,
known as the columns of st. Mark,
brought from the Holy Land in 1l2O
and standing in front of the quay and
landing steps of the Piazzeta, have
been associated with the fortunes of
Venice for many years. At first they
lay PROSTATE for a long time, while
no one would undertake to raise them,
But a reward offered by the doge at
length induced one Nicolo Barratiero
(Nick the Blackleg) to offer his serv-
ices. He succeeded and claimed as
his reward the privilege of carrying
on between the columns games of
chance, elsewhere prohibited by law
To neutralize this as much as possible
it was enacted that all public execu-
lions should take place on the same
spot. One column is surmounted by
the Lion of St. Mark. The other car
ries a fine figure of St.. Theodore, the
patron saint of the city, who stands
upon a crocodile and with sword and
buckler gives token that the motto of
Venice is Defense. Not Defiance"

Trickina Z Game Warden.

When a game warden bought seven
pounds Of meat and paid dollar q
pound for 1t he thought he was get
ting some pretty convincing evidence
against man in Herkimer county
whom he supposed to be chronic
violator. of the game law. The pro-
tector found, this particular piece Of
meat in an icehouse one hot August
day, and he spotted it for venison
'.What will you take for that chunk
Of meat?'' he asked the owner,
{ Chats tender piece Of meat" re-
piled the woodsman, with wink at
the stranger, land meat is dear way
back up here. wouldn't part with it
for less n dollar pound
''Well, give me pound"
''Nope; couldn't do that It would
Spite the piece for cookin' to do that"
The game warden had to take the
whole thing, and he paid 81 for it, sat
isfied that he had caught one of the
worst game law violators in the Adj
rondacks. Down to Albany he sent
the meat for the forest, fish and game
commission to analyze to prove it ven
ison. But it wasn't. 1T was veal.
The backwoodsmen tell the story as
one Of the best jokes ever played on a
game protector.-New York Tribune.

kinasIey's Stammering.


Charles Kingsley loved talking, had
an enormous deal to say on every con-
ceivable subject and longed to say It.
But his stammer was always checking
him. He gurgled and gasped and
made faces and would sometimes
break off in a conversation or a meal,
rush out into the open air and liber-
ate his suppressed emotions by rapid
exercise or physical exertion. Yet, as
has often been observed in similar
cases, when he had to preach the
stammer subsidized, and, though there
was some facial contortion, the flow
of the discourse was never interrupt
ed. He said to his friend Tom
Hughes: II could be as great talker
as any man in England but for my
stammering. When I am speaking for
God in the pulpit or paying by bed
sides I never stammer. My stammer
is a blessed thing for me. It keeps me
from talking in company and from
going out as much as 1 should do but
for ito. w. E. Russell in Winches-
ter Guardian. .'-.|

The Arab PIowman,

To see an Arab steering a yoke OF
oxen. one hand pressed upon the sin
gle stem of the pillow and the other
holding the long. slim 7goad. is to see
& living illustration of how Elisha
looked and moved when Elijah found
him blowing and cast his cloak upon
him in significant symbolism of his
destiny. 1t has often been remarked
that, while imperishable relics of Ro-
man stonework abound in northern
Africa in the form of bridges, aque-
ducts and SO forth. the impress left
on the people themselves by the great
est civilizing power that ever existed
is. extraordinarily slight. Only in some
such insignificant details as the names
of the months in the Kabyle dialect
is the stamp of Rome still visible. and

TULIP MADNESS.
The crazs That Ragged In Holland IN
tho Last Century.

The Craze That Ragged In Holland In
the Last Century.
During the tulip craze in Holland in
the last century in one year the sales
aggregated 100000 forms. Holland
went tulip mad. The bulbs were quot
ed on the Stock Exchange. Ownership
In them was divided into shares. Spec
ulators, sold them short. At one time
more tulips were sold than existed. At
Lille brewer sold his trade and good
will in exchange for bulb, which was
thereafter known as the Brewery tu-
lip. In Amsterdam q father gave one
by way Of dover with his child There
after the variety was known as the
Marriage of My Daughter. At Rotter-
dam hungry sailor. happening on a
few. mist0Ok them for onions and ate
them. The repast became as famous
as Cleopatra's pearls and probably ex-
ceeded it in cost At The Hague a
poor fellow managed to raise black
tulip The rumor of that vegetable
marvel spread. Presently he was Wis
tied by deputation from a syndicate.
For that eve lamb of his the deputa-
ton offered 1000 forms. which he re-

Opportunity.

There is a story of sculptor who
once showed visitor his studio, which
was full of gods, some Of them very
curious. The face Of one was entirely
concealed by the hair, and there were
wings on each foot. The visitor asked
this statues name.
"Opportunity," was the reply.
And why is his face hidden?"
because men seldom know him
when he comes to them"
"Why has he wings on his feet?
because he is soon gone and once
gone can never be overtaken," was the
reply.
We all know the story Of the man
who sold the old farm which he had
barely been able to get living from
during his entire life and his amaze
ment and chagrin when the new own
er discovered gold upon the land the
first week of his ownership. A great

with regard to our opportunities if we

2l2 SALOONS TO CLOSE
@'Lid" Being Clapped on in Washington,
With More to Follow.

Seattle, Dec. 1.-two hundred
and twelve saloons in the state OF
Washington will have their doors
barred at midnight Dec. 81, as re-
suit of the November election. This is
the summarized outcome of fifty.four
local option elections held last
month.
It is estimated that in year from
now there will not be saloon in the
state, not even in Seattle, Tacoma,
or Spokane. The campaign carried
on by the Anti-Saloon league the
past year was extensive and the
spirit of its meetings was felt all
over the state on election day. OF
the $3.50 square miles contained
in the state 1854 are included in
the great oasis that has now been
deprived of its wells.
Everett and Bellingham are the
two largest towns captured by the
"drys" and it is said Spokane will be
the first of the cities to yield.

Ancient Spectacle Makers,

The ancient Guild Of Spectacle Max
ers is numerically one of the strongest
London companies. Its charter dates
from the year 1929 and, though the ex-
act date of it's origin is lost, there is
ample evidence that the calling of
spectacle maker was extensively fol-
lowed at a very early date. An old
book of 1868 mentions the spectacle
makers among other traders, and the
biography Of Carlo Zeno, an illustrious
Venetian. who died in 1418, mentions
that even at the age Of eighty -four he
needed no artificial aids to his sight.
So presumably spectacles were com
mon in Italy five centuries ago.-Lon-
