pocket handkerchiefs can be turned to

a child can be set to work and find

Then the Young Lions Took Turn at
Amusing Him.
A negro attached to an African hunt
ing party met with a curious adYen-
ture, says an English paper. Wander
ing one day from camp, he surprised
two lion cubs at play and thoughtless-
ly commenced to amuse them. He was
only toe successful. The big cubs gam
boiled fearlessly about him and to his
dismay refused to desiSt when he
wished to leave them.
Realizing the danger to which he
would be exposed shoCld the mother
appear, he began to run, but the cubs
refused to be shaken off and in their
play scratched his legs in fearful
fashion.
That the creatures were thoroughly
enjoying themselves was evident from
their manifestations Of delight, and
before long their unusual cries brought
a Honess leaping to the spot.
Trembling in every limb, the negro
faced the growing animal, while the
cubs continued to jump up at him,
eager for further cRresses. The en-
ragged noness moved round uneasily
IN a circle, man and beast keeping
their eyes steadily on each other Sew
eral times the lioncss crOuched to
spring, but the man, from fear, never
shifted his gaze.
At length, after what seemed an age,
when the negro was ready to drop
from exhaustion, the animal suddenly
called her cubs away and disappeared
into the surrounding scrub.

A Singular Marriage Custom.

The Kurds have a very curious ane
somewhat dangerous marriage custom,
which one would think would be more
hOnored in the breach than in the oh.
servance. The husband, surrounded
by a bOdyguard of twenty or thirty
young men, carries bis wife home on
his back in a scarlet cloth and is des-
perately assaulted the whole way by
q number Of girls. Sticks and stones
are hurled at the bridegroom, who in
the coming home with his bride caz
hardly be considered a very happy
man, for the irate amazons often in
fiict on him marks which be carries
to the grave. 1t may be that among
the lady pursuers are some Of the
bridegroon's former flames" who
turn the mock attack into downright
earnest to aVenge slighted love.

"That Awful Boy JONES'" Who Tor.

For a little while about the middle
OF the nineteenth century that awful
boy Jones' was the torment Of Queen
Victoria's life, and his short career in

would try the mettle of Sherlock

He was BARRIERS apprentice who in
some unexplained way discovered a

which he alone was acquainted. When
he was first found trespassing he was

Soon after he was encountered again
in the palace. He would not tell how
he obtained access. Again he was sent

4 BYRON STATUE.

minister Abbey, but Was Re
fused by the Dean.

Many years ago some admirers Of
Lord Byron raised subscription for q
monument to the poet to be placed in
Westminster abbey. Chantrey was re-
queSted to execute 1t, but on account
Of the smailness Of the sum subscribed
he declined, and Thorwaldsen was
then applied to and cheerfuIly uaGS<-

In about 1888 the finished statue az
rived at the customs house in London,
but to the astonishment Of the sub
scribers the dean OF Westminster, DR..
Ireland, declined to give permission to
have it set up in the abbey, and owing
to tnis difficulty, which proved insur-
mountable, for DR.. Ireland's successor

The form, one Of the most famous Of
modern coins, originated in Florence
Some say that it gave the name to the
city, while others assert that it was
first so called because it had on it a

rome, or flower, for the same reason
that an English silver piece is called

louis or the ten dollar gold piece In
America an eagle. Two countries

the form as unit of Aonetary value,

An Artists StruaaIes.

Professor Won Herkomer. the famous
painter, had such a struggle to gain
a living in his early days that had it
not been for his inexhaustible stock
Of patience and self confidence he
would probably have abandoned art
entirely. He sold his first picture for
2 guineas and later on earned for
short time a couple Of pounds weekly
for a woodcut which he supplied to
& comic paper. This modest salary
coming to a stop, he was at his wits
end to know what to do. He applied
to q troupe OF minstrels for an en-
gagement as either player, but in vain,
and then took to designing carpets.
For some years he battled with pow
erty, achieving no success until he
obtained employment on a weekly H.

PLANET PROBLEMS.
We Really Know Very Little Even
About the Larger Heaven
ly Bodies.

''The amount OF ignorance not yet
removed concerning the planets is very
great" writes E. S. Grew. I'VE do
not know, for example. whether the
planet Venus rotates. II 1t does 1t may
possibly have q life and a vegetation
Ike our own, though va suspect that
1t Is clothed in eternal cloud. OF
Saturn's rings we cannct say whether
they consist Of millions OF tiny moons
Ike brickbats or whether they may be
ever smaller still-a veil OF shining
dust. OF Jupiter we can only say that
it Is covered with clouds, though Of
their substance we know nothing,
and, according to Professor Lowell and
Sir William Higgins, some OF the
bands We see on it may be riffs in the
clouds revealing the body of the plan
et Little lines criSscrosS these bands.
Photographs Of Jupiter taken at Flag
stan observatory seem to indicate that
these lines, too, are the upper clouds
Of Jupiter.
But whenever we see a planet we
see it badly. Even Mars, the most
clearly revealed OF them all, is con-
stantly obscured by a refracting haze,
so that even Of the famous canals,
though nearly 500 in number, only a
few are perceptible at a time, and an
unskilled observer would probably not
make them out at all Sandstorms,
sometimes snowstorms, sweep the sur
face of the planet, and because the
winds Of Mars are very gentle and
slow moving these occurrences take a
long time TO pass by."-London Family

The fata mOrgana is a singular aerial

most frequently and In greatest per

ditions must coincide, however, that
even there 1t is Of comparatively rare
occurrence. To allow Of its production
the sun must be at an angle Of forty
five degrees with the water. both sky
and sea must be calm and the tidal
current sufficiently strong to cause
the water in the center to rise higher
than on the edges of the strait. When
these conditions are fully met the OBJ

supposed that the images are due to
the irregular refractive powers OF the
