lord RussELL's BLuaoEa
Manchester cabman Refused to Stand
for the III Nature Of tho
Famous Judge.

The bluntness and impetuosity OF
Lord Russell of Killowcn often caused
him to do and say things for which he
was afterwards genuinely sorry, and
sometimes led him to get. quite unex-
pectedly, a Roland for his Oliver. This
happened on one occasion In Manches-
ter. He and junior started for an ap-
pointment one afternoon when Russell
was in very disagreeable mood.
Things had not been going we'll dur
ing the day. The cabman was big,
powerful, athletic-looking fellow. On
approaching the cab, Russell, as was
his wont, closely scanned the horse
and the man. Why" said he, "a big,
powerful fellow like you. ought not to
be driving a cab; you ought to be do
ing something else"
What the deuce Is 1t to YOU" said
the cabman, what DO? Get into the
cab, and mind your own business"
Russell, Barry C'Brien tells us, in
his Life" Of the famous Judge, reed
little. He was too much man of ac-
ton to be a man Of books, but
wherever he went he always carried
two books In his bag-Locket"On the
Human Understanding and the "Imi-
tation OF Christ" He liked novels Of
excitement: Monte Cristo" was a
special favorite. He read Gaboriau's
books, dipped into Tolstoi and Tour
guenieff, and once, when he was Ill at
Leeds, he got his chief clerk, Mr..
Block, to read the Adventures of
Sherlock Holmes" to him. But Rus
sell made a bad blunder through lack
Of literary knowledge. On one occa.
sion, when he was introduced to Mr..
Stanley Weyman, he wished to be
civil to that distinguished author, 80
he said: "My young people, Mr.. Wey-
man, speak constantly of your books,
and tell me ought to read them. /

PERSIAN LORE ABOUT ROSE
Nightingale Sings His Frenzied Love
sffor that Flower and Diea
Beneath Rosebush.

Persian legendary lore tells some
fanciful stories about the rose which
have great poetic charm, For example
the poet Altar wrote "The Book of the
Nightingale" telling how all the Other
birds appeared in anger before the
throne of Solomon, asking him to de
stroy the nightingale, which would no
allow them to rest by night, but pour
ed forth its lays when peaceful 81
lence should rein all over the earth
After prolonged argument the bird was
acquitted, for 1t explained with such
pathos that it's untimely melody could
not be restrained because of it's fren
zied love for the rose, a passion sc
hopeless and undying that 1t could
never be made voiceless Another
Persian belief 10 that uightingales al
ways die beneath rose bushes istupe
fed by the scent. Jamie, Persian
poet, wrote Of how "the first rose ap
peared In Gulistan at the time the
flowers demanded a new sovereign
from Allah, because the drowsy lotus
would slumber at night. At first the
maiden queen blossom was shown
white, and encircled with a protecting
guard Of thorns, but the poor night
gale fell into such an ecstasy of love
over her charms, and so recklessly
pressed his lovelorn heart agains
those cruel thorns, that his blood. sc
far as 1t could trickle into the flower,

Another fancy states that the Per

little god Cupid, while its thorns were

The beds OF the Shahs OF Persia II
