A Court EooI's Joke.

Scogan, the famous court jester of Edward w., dearly loved prac- tical joke. Once he borrowed money of the king and when the day for payment came was unable. to make good his word. He feared the kings anger and decided to appease him by joke. Feigning death, he had his friends carry his body be- fore Edward. The king fell ready victim to the deception and in his lamentations over the supposed dead fool said he freely forgave the debt. Scogan immediately sprang 60 his feet, exclaiming, "The news is so revivifying that it has called me back to life"

No Dishes to Wash.

Happy Aladagascarians! They have no dishes to wash in their housekeeping. The large, fibrous leaves of what is called ''the travel ers' tree," because its stalks on be- ing pierced yield d clear watery sap which makes a refreshing drink, cut into rectangular pieces, serve them for plates, platters, cups and spoons. The rice or other food which con stitutes meal is piled on one Of these leaves. A native takes d piece of leaf in each hand, rolled up like cornct, and with one dips port tion of the rice from one platter into another and on it conveys the food to the mouth. That is all there is of it-no changing of plates, no bother about clearing tables.

His Amendment.

Dr. Wilmington Ingram, the bishop of London, was once asked to select his favoritc clerical story, and he chose the following:
 The late Archbishop Magee, the famous Irish prclate, was once con- cerncd with other high ecclesiastics in the presentation of a memorial to Queen Victoria, and meeting was held to discuss its terms.
 The original draft began with, "Conscious as we are of our un- worthinesS, we humbly pray your majcsty," etc., but some one sug- gcstcd that this was inappropriate, coming from bishops.
 "Oh, wc!l," said Archbishop Ma gee, "we'll soon alter that!"
 Taking a pen, he wrote, Con- scious as we are of each others un- worthiness. we," etc.

Too Much Sound.

In Dean Ramsay's book of anec- dotes there is one which refers to conversation between Scotch minister and sexton. The minis ter was stranger to the grave maker and discussed with him the doctrines of the neighboring clergy. As ono after another was mention ed the sexton wagged his head gloomily and said, ''He's no sound" "
 At last the minister, who was, by the bye, long winded and rather empty preacher, mentioned his own name and inquired. "Mr. - now, isn't he sound ?"
 "Oo, ave-" said the sexton, with twinkle in his eye. "He's aw sound"

l-iars' Clubs.

In the days of good Queen Bess few kinds of entertainment were more popular than the game of ''brag," in which the victory went to the competitor who was adjudged by the audience to have emulated most successfully the example of Ananias of dubious memory. It may perhaps be surmised not un- reasonably that the popularity of this form of amusement was d'le to the fact that the art of novel writ ing was unknown in those days. Writing in 1880, an old author says, "Lying with us is so loved 'nd al- lowed that there are many tymes gamings and prizes therefor, pur- posely to encourage one to outlye another" The custom persisted until more recent times, and as late as the eighteenth century "liars' clubs" were a common feature of London life.

AFGHAN W0MEN.-
High Casts Mothers Lead . Lonely,
 Lazy Existence.


 High casts Mothers Lead . Lonely, Lazy Existence.
 If there are any women in the world who have d right to die of ennui it is those poor creatures of Afghanistan, the upper class danes. They spend their days doing abso- lutely nothing, for they disdain sewing, cooking and general house. hold duties. They leave the care of their children to slaves, and they can neither read nor write.
 Generally in a rich house there is one chief slave, a sort of house. keeper, rather grand person, whom it is always wise to conciliate if you intend having many dealings with that establishment. In sum- mer she is always dressed in purest white. In winter velvets and bro- cades are not beyond her reach. She is generally an elderly person, with considerable influence and good deal of authority.
 i Then there is another who is sort of maid to the lady of the house. She is another person with whom it is not wise to quarrel. She is always very much in evidence. She it is who prepares everything for her mistress toilet, as also for her masters. It is the wife's spe- cial duty and privilege, however, when the things are prepared to wait upon her husband when he is dressing, to pour the water over his hands and feet during his religious washings, to spread his prayer car pet, to put his favoritc dish before him, and so on.
 It is difficult to appreciate the exact position of these Afghan wo- men until one sees the way in which mothers are treated by their sons. They may nurse them when they are sick, tend them when they are young, but let the boys grow to be eleven or twelve years old and you will hear them tell their mother to "chup sho" (shut up), send them to fetch their caps and expect to be addressed by the mothers as "agha gul' or "agha jon," which means "my precious master,'' "master dear"
 Kabul mothers seldom have much affection for their children or their children for them. They do not nurse them as babies, and their babyhood is particularly long one, for they are very backward. They belong to their nurses more than to their mothers till they are two and onc-half years old, and after that it is their father who notices them and not their mother-Exchange.

CLEVER CRIPPLEs.'.
Dsfermsd Bodies That Were Endowed
 With Brilliant Minds.

F:Talleyrand, the notorious French statesman, friend of Napoleon and ambassador at the English court, was designed for a military career, but an accident when one year old rendered him d cripple for life. His cunning cleverness, political pene- tration, adroit intrigues and ingen- ious subterfuges were vehemently opposed by the emperor's wife, Jo- sephine, who energetically denounc- ed him as ''cursed cripple"
 Josiah Wedgwood, the famous potter and scientist, suffered from a disease of the right knee which necessitated the amputation of the limb. Referring to this infirmity, MT. Gladstone once declared: ''It sent his mind inward. It drove him to meditate upon the laws and se- crets of his art. The result was that he arrived at a perception and grasp of them which might perhaps have been envicd by an Athenian potter" The early years of John Flaxman, who designed the choicest specimens of Wedgwood ware, were spent behind his fathers shop coun- ter, propped up by pillows and amusing himself by drawing and reading. It was long before he could walk, and he learned to do so only by hobbling along on crutches.
 Alexander Pope, the poet, is said to have inherited nothing from his father save his physical deformity and nothing from his mother ex- cept her violent headache. Little more than four feet in height, his bodily infrmitics rendered his life one long disease, yet he labored in- cessantly and received G5,320 for his translation of the "Iliad."
 Mrs. Browning, the distinguished poetess, was of delicate constitu- tion and never enjoyed robust health. Her sufferings were due to an accident which happened in her sixteenth year. She was one day trying to saddle her pony in a field when she fell with the saddle upon her, incurring an injury to her spine. The after effects were so serious that for years she had to recline on her back.
 Both Lord Byron and Sir Walter Scott were lame. Sir Walters lamencss was caused by kick from a horse when acting as quarter master of the Edinburgh Light cavalry.
 Sir William Thomson, who be- came Lord Kelvin, was cripple, and so was Dr. James MacGrcgor, one of the greatest of Scottish 1 praachars -1 london Standard

Upon these 700 slabs is engraved the whole of the Buddhist Bible, vast literature in itself, equal to about six copies of the Holy Scriptures. This marble Bible is engraved in the Pali language, thought to be that spoken by Bud dha himself 500 B. c.

Printing Unpopular IN Persia.

Type printing is unpopular in ! Per-
sia. The straightness Of the lines Of
tends the Persian's artistic sense, and
he feels that in printed books the char
acter OF the letters is lost Persia is
today entirely dependent upon lithog-
raphy for its own production of books.
Naturally these are very rare. At the
beginning of the nineteenth century a
press with movable types was set up in
Tabriz. and a certain number of books
were printed The effort met with no
encouragement, however, and had
shortly to be abandoned. The same
taste which makes Persian esteem
so highly the great calligraphists
makes him deplore the absence Of
character in tyre printed book.
What most delights him is well writ
ten manuscript. ard he takes the same
delight in the copyist's work that we
take In an old master. Failing this, he
contents himself with a Autograph,
which is usually a facsimile Of the
writing Of some fairly good scribe.
