GAMBLED FOR A GIRL
Prince Lucien Bonaparte Won a Bride
From His Brother Pierre.
It is said that the two brothers,
Prince Louis Lucien Bonaparte and
Prince Pierre; In their early ' youth
when shooting mouflons in the moun-
tains in Corsica, came across a beau-
tiful peasant girl with whom they both
felt violently in love.
Who she was and whether she favor-
ed both brothers or neither I cannot
tell. Be thatas it may, they quar-
reled. Les preux chevaliers of old
would no doubt in similar occurrence
have had recourse to lance and sword.
The Corsican princes decided to play,
for their belle a game of cards. They
went to the nearest Inn and wrote and
signed a paper agreeing that which-
ever won the game should marry the
lady fair. Prince Lucien won and.
faithful to his word, a short time after
married her.
She never left the island as far as 1
know. Prince Lucien lived in England,
securing to ber a comfortable income,
whichelle received till her death, some-
where about the spring of 1891.—Prom

Flower Perfumes.
A garden full of dowers is more frit.
grant when shadowed by a cloud than
when bathed in sunshine; at least that
is the conclusion to which experiments
of a French scientist lead. He asserts
that it is light and not, as commonly
believed, oxygen that exerts the great-
est influence in desortying odors. Ac-
cording to the same authority, the in-
tensity of the perfume given off by a
flower depends upon the relation be-
tween the pressure of water in the
cells of the plant, which tends to drive
out the essential oils that cause the
odor, and the action of the sunlight,
which tends to diminish water pres-
sure in the cells. Sprinkling the plant
increases the turgescence and as a
consequence a more copious production
of perfume. At night the air round a
Sower bed is heavy with odors, be-
cause then their emanation is not op-
posed by the sunlight. — New York
Tribune.

Th. Shapes of Eggs.
There was recently bad before the
Zoological society of London a mathe-
inatical discussion of the differences in
the shape of eggs. & few eggs, like
those of the owl and the tortoise, are
spherical, or nearly so; tt few, like the
grebe's or the cormorant's, are ellip•
tical, with symmetrical ends; the great
majority, like the hen's, are ovoid, or
blunter at one end than the other. The.
hen's egg is always laid blunt end fore-
most.
or&most. Eggs that are the moat unsym-
metrical are also eggs of large size
relatively to the parent bird. The
yolks of eggs are spherical, whatever
the form of the entire egg may tier
ECbis has been shown to be due to their
being, inclosed in a fluid, the "white,"
which makes the pressure everywherd
on the surface of the yolk practical,
