Some of the Troublosolne Queries Which

peror Tiberius aa Early Example—The
Pusiling Dreams of a, Chinese.
Bowen doubtlem had_ in hie mind the
propounder of unanswerable questions
when, ha his easy on "Diecourse," he ad- -
timed all seeketis ,after knowledge to avoid •
putting troublelorne queries—a- practice
whioh he declared was fit only for a poser.
The pour, hoWever, has existed time out
of mind. He to to be found among ell
'lasses of men, from emperors down to
private Indivi/luals who prepare ecientifio
A somewhat early example of the poser
pure and simple Vr11,1 the Znyertor Tiberius.
The unfortuaste _philosophers whom ho-
used to -keep for a pastime in his island re-
treat at 0apree were continually being
plagued by absurd questions. Suetonius
tells us that the emperor used to demand
of these wise Men whom Heeuba's motker
was. If -they !refined to esameit them-
selves, the fetidly tree of the Hecubes not
having come down to poeterity, the em-
peror was went to wax wroth at their ig-
norance and threaten there with corporal
punishment if on the following day they
did not come mowed with an answer. Oth-
er favorite questions of his were: "What
name did Achille, pas" tinder when he so-
journed with the virgins at Soren?"
"What particular song „were the sirens
when seated on the rooks in the babit of
chanting in order to allure travelers to
their death?" In vain was it for these wise
men to invent fictitious answers, for the
emperor invariably asked for authorities,
and if chapter and verse were not forth-
coming some ingenious Punishment fell
to the lot of those unfortunate manufac-
turers of history.
Perhaps it was because time hung heav-
ily on their hands that the holy men of the
church doring the middle ages peetered
their spiritual superiors witn foolish ques-
tions drawn from the Bible. A bishop in
those days had to know, or rather appear
to know, even more than Macaulay's om-
nisoient schoolboy. No Small portion of
his time, it would seem, was spent in en-
deavoring to find answers to such Ties -
tions as the following: "What was the use
of the ladder which Jacob saw in his vi-
sion, oeeing that the angels had wings,
and so did not require any other means of
descent from heaven to earth?" "What
kind of iinplements did Adam and Eve use
when they sewed the fig leaves together and
made themselves aprons?" Far from
• chwking speculistione such as the above,
the dignitaries of the ohurch appear to
have encouraged them, and "the nicerithe
points the better the bishop liked them."
The regal sue well as the clerical nsind
delighted in propounding obstruse ques-
tions. Was, for instance, a man who came
as a stranger to a city and being in ex-
treme want of food justified in stealing in
order to save his life? Grains, Puffendorf
and a whide boat of foreign jurists declare
in the iffirroattee. Chime, Hale, Black-
stone and others take the Opposite side.
.n. great B50011 himself setggests a miss
point. If two persons are shipwrecked and
get on the same plank, but Ind it is net
able to save them both, is either justified
if, in order to save his life, he thrturt the
other from it?
Scientific men, too, have raised some
curious questions for posterity to _argue
cm. Many of theme, howeeer, are similar
to that which Charles II propounded to
the Royal sooiety—viz, -"If a fish is put
Into a globe full to the- brine with water,
why is it that the water do.es not overflew?"
The society, being loyal subjects, took a
decent time to look „into this piofound
question, and then informed his modesty,
In the politeit terms which they oould
muster that under the given °trauma-
staacesithe water would overflow. Thereto
that anoient question, "What would hap-
pen if an irresistible force came into cont
tact with an immovable body?"
Equally fruitless is the speculation as to
which came first, the hen or the egg. In

the French quarter la New Orleans, says a
when I "tow a dog—apparently a crow

'Stopping before' the shop window, the dog

With his fore paws upon the closed pane,
whereupon the baker came and rained the
"Bon Jour, monsieur," said the man'
quite cheerily, as if he were speaking to
an old acquaintance. At the same time be
took a small round leaf of bread twin the
shelf and put it down on the sill. •
The dog, wagging his tail the while, de-
posited his bird on the window ledge,.
picked up the loaf and trotted back the,
way he came.
"You are wondering at my queer atm

can tell you " he went on, "is that the dog

QUESTION OF POSSESSION. .
A Better Between Two Throbbing Meares
Amitably Settled.
"Will you be mine?"

her shapely hes'id and, blushing, answered
Fifteen minutes after the above emo-'
tional convereation had taken place the,

ed her joyful eye) te his as if in question. ,
Quick is the apprehension of lotie, and '
he was all anxiety in a moment.
"What is it, darling?" he asked, bolding,
her to him as if fearful lett she mope.
"Haven't I $50,000 in my own right?"
she murmured.
Hie grasp tightened on her as if it were:
twice anntuch.
"So I have beard, dear," he responded,'
trying to be utterly indifferent.
"And you haven't 50,000 cents?"
"Juan about, (heeling." And once more
he tightened his hold on the future Qom-,
forts of life.
For a long time she remained silent, AS
if in deep thought.
"Don't you think, John," she told at
laot, "that that question you asked me a ,
minute ago was just a bit out of plumb?"
"What question, dearest? I don't undere
stand," he saki greatly perplexed. "De
you mean when asked you to be mine?"
"What was wrong with it, dorling? I
meant it all, and more."
"Yes, John, I know," she said, weighing
her words carefully, "but it occurs to xne ;
that turret, are not putting up the money, ;
and I am you might, change it arouatd a
and'you be mine, instead of the way
you had it."
All the worry and anxiety fled from his -
face and soul on the spot.

he said, with a radiant smile. "There'
isn't any more mine or yours in this fam-
ily anyhow. It's all ours. See?"

Whet la Told of Some of His Experienoes
wano Painting Portraits.
Tbe noted painting Of Queen Victoria
being crowned empress ef India took throe
years to paint, and the artist, Val C. Prin.
rep, R. A, had many curious experienou
whfie at work. He went to India in the
winter of 1876. The picture is 27 by 18
feet and eentaine 150 portraits!. So it was
necessary to have sittings from many In-
dian potentates. When Holkar was sit-
ting, he grew tlretioand yawned, and all
the eourt at emu engaged in *napping fin-
ger" to prevent the devil from leaping
down HolkAr's throat. Indian ways WIIPO
new to the Engliish artist, and he at-
tempted to assist untie,* his painting ma-
teriale, but *as told it was considered
highly degrading to stoop to the shadow
of an attempt at manual labor. "After-
ward," he said, "I grew so great a person-
age that if a spot of paint got on my finger
tip I leaned languidly back while an at-
, tendant wiped it off."
On one occasion, when Holkar was sit-
ting, he grew impatient and manifested it
unmistakable fashion. Said Mr. Prim- '
sep earnestly, "If the great God took five -
and twenty years to make you as beautiful
as you are (Holkar .was over 50), how can
you .expect me to paint you in as many
minutes?" The potentate became tractable
at once.
One rajah who refused to give the req-
uisite number of sittings also refueed
allow Mr. Prinsep to take away his jeweled
coat to paint. Finally the artist told the
rajah's son unless his father let him ber-
row the coat he would be obliged to paint
the rajah attired in his cook's garment.
Prinsep got the coat. Another rajvih
would not eat in a room where a European
had been, and always washed himself after
',baking hands with a white man. It was
a trying year passed by the artist. He had
to (*repose doggerel pciiity to amnee hire
.fights, and was thrown rom his pony over
some interest in the ,sittings and asked to
be painted fat. He was rather proud
his bulk, and it was reputed* that he w
able to eat a whole wild.boar at one sitting.
On his return from India the gueen coon -
mended the sketches be brought her for
approval. A van was enquired for the
forty odd sketches, which were arrangod
in two drawing rooms, And tbe queen's
visit lasted an hour, bin,tPrinsep explain-
ing to her. The great p4ture was painted
in sections of nine feet teach. The huge
dak frame cost $1.500. r
In the case of the Prbemp places, "Ern-
peror Theophilus Choosing a Wife," all the
women in the pioture were painted from
models among Prinsepho own friends,
many of tlient women noted as society
,,,Iiieauties., One of them he desired to wear
an angry look, but could net manage it
until he happened to mention ber daugh-
ter-in-law, whom she hated. Instantly; •
flash of anger lit the eyes he wanted to
paint just so.—Chietigo News.

Electric Matches.
The electric match is the next important
invention promised. Before very long the

that tty be carried in the pocket or hung

wan Twentieth century people doubt-
less will speak of the "hell -sticks" of the
present day as primitive and abaurd, Peet
as we are disposed to look with scorn upon
the flint and steel of our forefathers., Al-
ready there is en the market a gaslightm
which affords more than a euggestion of
the electrio match, of the future, a twist of
the handle generating orufficienteleotricity
to acc.omplioh the purposet also there are
several Myles of cigar lighters which de-
pend for their supply of electricity upon
storage batteriet; For some years past, the
gas jets in theatees and public buildings
have been lighted by the electric spark.
Indeed most persons hone seen the ouripui
experiment of lighting the gas with' the
finger after a shuffle across the oarpet to
generate the electricity needed.
The portable electric lighter is bound to
°ems. Meanwhile invade* as shown by
the records ef the patent office, eXteCtiel

matches of hese sad matches of paste-

matches of paper, while one enteeprising

spherical neable—a little ball of wood
pulp, covered** phosphorous oompeel-
tion. In using it a holder is required, in-
asenuoh as there is no stick, the ignited
woad pulp burning -slowly until whelly
„ consumed. Thus theme is no residue of
etiok and ohar to be, disposed of; and
matches of. this kind have the furthers ad-
vantage that they are cheep and can be
packed in very small oompass, like pills.—
