Cuttinu Off Noses.

Rameses II. of Egypt cut Off the nose
Of any person convicted Of treason or
arson. Actisanes. another Egyptian
ruler, punished robbers in the same
way. After each nose had been ampu-
tated back even with the bridge the
culpEit was sent to 4 colony of noseless
felons. the place Of punishment being
known as Rhinoconum, from the ma
ture OF the punishment its colonists
had undergone.
In England in 1911 Lord Coventry,
then great keeper Of the British seal, "
had his nose cut OFF by order Of the
king because he had dared to ask some
questions about an actress then play
ing at Drury Lane theater.
4 conscript who protested openly
that he had been enrolled in the army
Of Frederick the Great in a fraudulent
manner had his nose amputated by or
der OF that sovereign, who spoke Of the
punishment as an "indelibie mark on

The Aneer Was Thoroudh.

There were some interesting episodes
In the life Of Sir Charles Euan-Smlth.
Once in the market place Of IN At
ghanistan town he was fired at by
native. He lodged a complaint with
the arlecr, who appeared to take no
notice Of the incident, merely remark
ing, That's all right" Sir Charles
complained again and met with the
same reply. He still thought that the
ameer was treating 4 serious matter
with less consideration than it de-
served, but thought it advisable to say
no more on the subject. About week
afterward he was invited by the ameer
to ride with him. They rode for some
distance outside the town, and they
passed gibbet after gibbet. At length
Sir Charles said, Your highness has
been busy Of late" "Oh, no." replied
the ameer; they are your little lot
He had seized all the members Of the
would be assassins family and hanged
every one Of them.

Women and the Commune.

'"The mad fury which seemed to
have taken possession OF the mob in
Paris found its most enthusiastic OK
ponents in the women, who were anx-
ious to proceed to the extreme meas
ures which the men deprecated, y
writes Lady st. Heller in her bool;
Memories Of Fifty Years" The or
ganized corps dc pctroleuses were q
savage crew, who had no feeling OF
pity or mercy in their hearts and
would have sacrificed even chose they
loved most dearly to the cause which
they had espoused. They cc-operated
actively with the commune, deluging
what public buildings they could with
petroleum and then setting light to
them, and most OF the fires that broke
out in Paris on the entry of the troops
originated through their action. They
went down into the streets and fought
at the barricades, showing superhu-
man courage, and when one Of the
great fights took place 1T the barri-
cade in the Rue de Ia paiX, which was
defended by the communists, the first
person 10 mount il and 10 hoist the
red flag of the revolution was q wo-

Elizabethan Slang.

According to the latest edition OF
Webster's Dictionary. one meaning OF
lobster" is "a gullible, awkward, bum
Cling or undesirable fellow" Thls
meaning is supposed by most persons
10 be a modern development Of slang.
However, lobster" was favorite term
of abuse among Englishmen Of Queen
Elizabeth's day, and Shakespeare may
have denounced his callboy as a
lobster" when the boy failed TO at
tend to his duties Some students OF
the word think 1t probably was applied
first to men with red faces. AS signi-
flying soldier the term lobster Is as
old as Cromwelrs day. Lord Claren-
den. historian Of the civil war in Eng
land, explains that it was applied TO
the Roundhead cuirassiers because Oh
the bright iron shells with which they
were covered. Afterward British sol
diers in their red uniforms were called
"Iobstcrs." Then came another develop
ment. The soldier in the red coat be-
came a "boiled lobster" while the po-
licemau in blue was, Of course, an
"unboiled" or raw lobster" Again,
ito boil lobster" was for q man to
enlist in the army and put On a req
