"Greyp and aGray.D

What is the difference, If any, be-
tween "grey" and gray" aside from
the matter Of spelling?
The editor of the Oxford Dictionary
some years ago made extended inquiry
as to usage and found that opinions In.
London varied. Replies to his ques-
tons showed that In Great Britain the
form grey is the more frequent in use.
despite the authority of DR.. johnson
and later photographers, who give the
preference to gray. Many correspond
ents said that they used the two forms
with a difference of meaning or appli-
cation, the distinction most generally
recognized being that grey denotes a
more delicate or lighter tint than grey.
Others considered the difference to be
that gray is q warmer color or that it
has a mixture Of red or brown. An
other group held that grey has more OF
sentiment, gray more Of color. which
may mean that grey is a suggestion
rather than a positive outline.-NeW
York Press.

Hindu Juggling.

The Hindu jugglers and acrobats are
the most skillful In the world One Of
the latest stories told Of them is about
a performer who went through many
wonderful feats perched or the top Of
a single bamboo stick about fifteen
feet In height. The top of the stick
YVES tied to a girdle around his waist,
and a leg rest was provided by a cush-
lon a few feet down the pole. Perch
ed on this slender stick he hoped and
danced about In the liveliest way. ac-
companied by the tapping Of a drum.
It would be considered a skiDful feat
to walk about with ease on a pair OF
stills fifteen feet In height, but this
Hindu showed a marvellous power of
equilibrium on a single stick. BE did
other things even more wonderful. For
example, he balanced a light stick on
his nose and a heavy one on his chin
and then threw the heavy n into the
air with his head and caught 1t on the
end Of a light one. While balancing
the two sticks thus. end on end. he
made one revolve in n direction and
the other In the opposite direction.

Remarkable Violin Test.

/; An ingenious test Of old and new VIC
Hns, In which an instrument Of mod
ern make was voted the finest. has
been made in Paris. During the per-
Torrance both critics and performers
were in complete darkness, so that it
was impossible to see which n Of the
psven Yiolins.selected for the test was
being played. Then Immediately after
being used the instrument was placed
under a cloth, and the lights were
turned on for view moments to en-
able the critics to write down the
votes. All the violins were played by
two musicians Of high standing, and
-the-eompesitions were written especi-
ally for the test. The two v%iolinists
tried to bring out the best in each
.yionn,- and the result, decided By the
votes, was interesting. The p9odern
make Of violin led the list with
ivo&s, and its nearest rival for favor
was a Stradivarius with 96 votes.

New Game.

William is the only son of a piorls
minister. and, though he is only three
and a half years Of age, his father
considers It quite time he learned
properly to observe grace on coming
to the table. His parents have more
than once endeavored to explain to
him the reasons for his so doing. but
the lite boy regards it as no more
than an amusing game.
The other afternoon his older sister
made another attempt to interest him
in this duty. All were seated at din
rer. and on the first words of the
grace Williams small head dropped
in his hands in apparent reverence.
His sister, secretly pleased with her
success, stole a glance at him. when,
