Napoleon, in 1851, was proclaimed,
at his own instigation. Emperor of
the French, Europe began to once
mare look on France as a respectable
power, anel to hope that under an
empire she would once for all throw
off any ideas of becoming a republic
again, First among those Powers
was Britain, who, under Pabnerston
and his successors, made violent love
to France. The latter reciprocated,
and after much flirtation and ex-
change of courtesy, a, treaty of al-
liance was signed in 1858, by which
the two powers joined hands in the
war against Russia.
Britain's relations 'with France dur-
ing the war and for several years af-
terwards were of a most cordial
character. The French Emperor vis-
ited us amid great enthusiasm, and
Queen Victoria, sent several times
to Paris. But a series of "tiffs" mi-
fortumately arose as a result of
'Britain's policy of harboring politi-
cal refugees, which included conspir-
ators against the Emperor and
France began to talk very loudly
against vs in 1859. As a result
Britain formed the volunteer move-
ment for her defence in ease of in-
vasion. But she remaiued, generally
speaking, friendly with France until
the Franco-German War, when Brit,-
ain's abstaining from helping France
brought epee her the vials of her
wrath, which has continued more or
less ever since, as Britain is now
known as "la perfide Albion." Brie

enthusiastic electrician. Entirely un-
aware of his vi'sitor's identity, he
minutely explained the details of the

him in his role of layman quite pro-

was on the point of interrupting se-
veral times, but an amused signal
from the great master of electricity
kept him silent. When the tour of
inspection was complete, Lord Kel-

and asked: "Whet, then, is, electrici-

GtifiliDED DAY ANTI NIGHT.
The fair Empress Eudosia Inuilt 31,
in order to be close to her Weal o
manhood—Inithyinius was not ed for
his sanctity, throughout Pnlestine,
and his learning end great motet!, en-
dowments, attracted the empress.
She loved blin with great detotion,
but leuthymius, true to bis Irwin re-
fused to see her. When her devotion
to him dad not cease, be fled to the
Moabite desert, beyond the Jordan.
The Empress watched daily front the
tewer for his return. After mucb
persuasion he was dragged back to
tbe monastery by bis companion.
Theoctestus, and the empress wept
with joy. She remained there e. lew
years longer, during whicia time she
caught only all caeual and infrequent
glimpse of the object of her love.
Finally she left the place with her
court attendants, never to return.
Now the tower is used as a "look-
out" and a. watchman is stationed
there day and night, who scans the
mountains and valleys far and wide
to see whether any danger threatens
the monastery.
LATOri, OF PERFUME.
On the Marigishlak peninsula, in
the Caspian Sea, there are five small
lakes. One of them is covered with
salt, crystals strong enough to allow
a man and beast to cross the Like on
foot; another is as rowel as any cir-
cle and a lovely rose color. Its
banks of salt crystal form a setting,
white as the driven snow, to the
water, which not only shows all the
colors from violet to rosy red, but
from which.rises a perfume as of vio-
lets. Both the perfume and the col-
or are the result of the presence of
seaweeds, the violet and the pink.
An amusing story is related of
Lady Curzon of Keilleston, formerly
the beautiful Miss Mary Leiter fof
Chicago. Tt was. in ,Washington
that a 'young attathe of one -of the
embassies became 'so conspicuous in
her service that, owing to a funny
little incident, he eventually gave up
the post. It happened in this wey:
The infetuated young man, knowing
that Miss Leiter was going to a cer-
tain'ball, went out one day and or -
dewed a large box of American Beau-
ty roses, 'Which he took with him,
stopping on the way home to make
a purchase of winter flannels, etc.,
One box was handed over to his
valet, while, a few hours later, Miss
Leiter opened the seeond, together
with a card entreating her "to wear
these for my sake," and discovered
the young cliPlomatists flannel
things! The story soon penetrated
to bis club, and, not at all appreci-
ating the laughter at, his expense, he
shortly after accepted an appoint-
ment elsewhere
