PROVERBS ABOUT CZARS.
A czar in the desert is only a man.
The czar himself can get muddy if
he steps in the niud. •
Even the crown of the czar cannot
cure headache.
The .czar's crows cannot have more
than two horns.
A drop of water in the eye of the
czar costs the country a great many
handkerchiefs.
When the czar makes you a present
of an egg he expects of you a hen.
The czar can disturb the earth, but
he cannot move it from its axis.
The czar knows not misery because
he does not live in a cabin.
The arm of the czar is long, but it
cannot reach to the sky.
The voice of the czar has an echo
even when there are no mountains.
The ukases of the. czar are worth
nothing if God says not "Amen."
The horse which has once been
mounted by the czar neighs continu-
ally.
Dress In Japan.
Between the sexes in Japan there is
very little difference in the main fea-
tures of dress, and little children are
only beautiful little miniatures of their
parents, more gayly and richly dressed.
Under his kimono a man of the upper
class wears a sort of kilted divided
skirt, something approaching the na-
ture of trousers. This is called the
"haliama" and is always made of stiff
silk. A woman wears instead an uu-
der kimono. Both sexes wear two lit-
tle aprons round the loins, called
"koshi-maki," and a sort of shirt called
the "suso-yoke." The narrow sash
worn by a man is not an item of great
importance, for, although it is always
made of rich silk, it is not so much for
show as for use, to keep the kimono in
place.
Girls and the Old Schools.
A. ruling for a New Haven school
made in 1684 reads, "And all girls be
excluded as improper and inconsistent
with such a grammar School as ye law
injoins and is the designe of this set-
tlement" One Benjamin Mudge, a
New England schoolmaster of many
years' service, has left the following
interesting memorandum: "In all my
school days, which ended in 1801, I
never saw'but three females in public
schools in my life, and they were only
in the afternoon to learn to write."
Mr. Mudge neglects to say, however,
that the girls were permitted not only
to the writing lessons, but they were
also privileged to attend the general
Annual catechising.
Poet or Organ Grinder.
"I sometimes feel," bitterly confided
the wife of the great poet to her sis-
ter, "that I would have been happier
With an organ grinder. Then we could
at least pass the hat around unabash-
ed. The pride that goes with great
gifts too Often Walks hand in hand

Careful, of Her Nose.
Many interesting stories of courtiers
and favorites at the old French court
are found in the memoirs of the Mar-
quise de Crequy. She says that on cer-
tain solemn occasions kings of France
wore ermine linings to their robes, but
ermine became scarce, and she writes:
"The anointing of Louis XV. was re-
tarded some years for want of this fur
for the court mantles, and at the coro-
nation • of Louis XIV. they actually
used catskin." Superbly elegant was
the Duchesse de la Kerte, who generally
was carried around under a canopy.
The marquise goes into ecstasies con-
cerning this particular duchesse, whose
eyes "had the most disdainful expres-
sion I ever saw, though they had a
Alight cast in them." But her supreme
elegance can be appreciated when it is
known "she never blew her nose for
fear of spoiling her Greek contour, but
dabbed it at intervals with a small
square of cambric."
Benjamin Franklin's Wife.
A very unflattering description of
Benjamin Franklin's wife is taken
from the diary of Daniel Fisher, who
was Franklin's secretary for a short
time. "She sat on the floor at a neigh-
bor's. She assumed the airs of extraor-
dinary freedom sand great humility,
lamented heavily the misfortunes' of
those who are unhappily infected with
a too tender or benevolent disposition,
said she believed all the world claimed
the privilege of troubling her poppy—
so slie usually' calls 11r. Franklin—with
their calamities and distress, giving us
a general history of ninny such wretch-
es and their impertinent applications,"
,
He mentions "the turbulence and jeal-
ousy and pride of her disposition" and
the violence of her invectives. Pointing
to Franklin's son one day, she exclaim-
ed, "There goes the greatest villain up-
on earth!"
Books In Series.
While it is certainly a pretty sight to
see a long row of books in a neat and
uniform binding, like soldiers on pa-
rade, there is a distinct loss of indi-
viduality. As you glance over your
books upon their shelves it is pleasant
to recognize them from their outward
dress. They keep themselves better in
mind if each one is not exactly like its
neighbors. You are even likely to for-
get what you have If you cannot know
them from across the room.
We often go to the bookcase looking
simply fur "something to read," and
then it is an advantage to know each
book at the first glance. Of course this
does not apply so strongly to the works
of a single author. These belong in a
uniform, and you know what is among
them.
Flirting In Japan.
A Japanese woman flirts—as far as
she knows the meaning of the word—
with her sleeves and fan and not with
her eyes and smiles. By the different
movements of the ends of her kimono
sleeves she manages to convey to her
admirers all sorts of unspoken mes-
sages, and by the opening and shutting
of her fan to the right or to the left
she can reject or accept the most
weighty offers. Her code signaling
with her sleeves and fan is quite an
item of her social education.
French Soldiers' Handkerchiefs.
The cotton handkerchiefs provided
or rent so els as es pr n e upon
them a ntunber of sanitary precepts to
be observed on the march and during a
campaign and are further decorated .
with medallions containing pictures of
officers of all grades, the different ani•
forms being so distinctly portrayed
that a French private can tell at a
glance to what grade any officer he
may see belongs.

in 1674 during which eighteen persons
were killed by the exploding of a
mine. A. soldier's wife was thrown
the distance of an acre. She was not

"but she scolded terribly and was in
a very bad humor."

- 'A 'PERSIAN TRAGEDY.
sultdinee Conrsge by Wb1ch Princes*
Salome Eammed Her Master.
James Baker, a well known ti'avelef
and writer, tells a curious story of a
war 100 years ago. The Persian sisals
was besieging Tiflis, and the husbf.nd
of the Princess Salome had been shin
in the siege. When the Persians en-
tered and sacked the town Salome
tried to save her young sou. but he was
torn from her arms uud backed, in
plecesa Before her eyes. Her own life
was spared and she wits borne to the
camp outside the walls of Tiflis to the
shah. He sold her to Djafar leek, who
shut her up in a castle—a part of which
still remains—near where- now is the
lovely tropical botanical garden of
Tiflis. Charmed by her beauty. he ask-
ed her to become his wife. Slue re-
fused and begged her eureliaaer to
slay her. The Persian gave her a night
to reconsider the matter and on the
next day he lay reclining on n great
cushion under a tree on that hot, sun-
ny
unny hillside and awaited her answer.
Presently she appeared before him,
veiled in u long, pure white robe. calm
and stately, her face deathly pale. She
advanced, her armed juliers following
Ler. 'i lie 1'ersian waved his followers
aside and asked the princess, "You con-
sent to be my wife?" "Yes," was the
solemnanswer.
o "I consent to love
you, for after the death of my husband
and son it is my destiny; there is no
other fate for me.
"In Georgia," said the princess,
"there are certain families that possess
strange powers and dark secrets. My
*mother foretol( I should be the wife of
o Djafar, e,uditom my mother 1, too,
receive these powers to read the fu-
ture." The Persian was impressed by
her manner and her presence. She saw
her power. "Give me your hand," she
said. "Let me read there if I shall
have log years of happiness with
you." He held forth his hand. • She
held it until it slightly trembled in her
fingers. Then she burst forth with a
cry of horror, "Oh, my master, know -
eat thou that death awaits thee, per-
chance this very night?" Dpjafar Bek
trembled now. "Thou wilt die by the
hand of a man thou bast this day of-
fended." "Is it by Assa Dhoulla Bek?"
he asked. "We quarreled today, and
about you. He would .have bought
you." "Ob, my master," exclaimed
Salome, "to save thee I must have
some object upon which he has looked
today, then I can avert this evil and
make his arms useless against thee."
"What! You can do this?" exclaimed
Djafar incredulously. "Most certainly.
Give me your dagger." He drew it and
handed it to her. She held it up and,
looking up to the blue heavens above,
murmured a prayer; then, bantling it
back to him said: "Now it is useless,
It can slay no one." He looked at her
unbelievingly. "Try it," she exclaim-
ed. "Strike here!" He struck the blow
where her finger rested full upon her
heart. The keen blade went swiftly,
home, and she fell at his feet, exclaim-
ing, "0 God, receive my soul!" Then
she lay dead.
Iron Making In Early History.
Iron was used before history wad
written. The stone records of Egypt
and the brick books of Nineveh men-
tion it. Genesis (ix, 22) refers to Tu•
balcain as "as instructor of every ar-
tificer in brass and iron," and in Deu-
teronomy (iii, 11) the bedstead of the
giant Og was "a bedstead of iron."
The galleys of Tyre and Sidon traded
in this metal. Chinese records ascrib-
ed to 2,000 B. C. refer to it. Horace
speaks of it as superior to bronze. The
bronze age came before the iron age
because copper, found as a nearly pure
metal, easily fuses, and with another
soft metal—tin or zinc—alloys into
hard bronze, while iron, found only as
an ore, must have the impurities burn-
ed and hammered out by great heat
and force before It can be made into a
tool.
Not a Favorite Breed.
Lo'rers of good, plain dogs which
have been allowed to grow naturally
will appreciate the story of the Eng-
lish peddler who went to a dealer in
dogs and thus described what he
wanted:
"Ili wants a kind of dog about so
'igh an' so long. Hit's a kind of gry.
'ound, an' yit it ain't a gry'ound, be-
cause 'Is tyle is Shorter nor any o'
these 'ere gry'otinds an' 'is nose is
shorter an' 'e ain't be slim round the
body. But still 'e's a kind o' gry'ound.
Do you keep such dogs?"
"No," replied the dog man. '!We
drowns 'em."
PEARL FISHERIES.
How Oa };ellsAsa Obtal■edl suaal Miss
vexed of Tia Cello's.
Since Keats told how "the Ceylon.
diver held his breath and went, all.
naked, to the hungry shark" many
poets have exhausted the resources of
their imagination in trying to describe
the wonderful pearl fisheries of Cep,
len, A few facts about thenk lnay be
of interest, it only as an antidote to so
much poetry.
The pearl fisheries are the property
of the government of Ceylon. The
divers are paid no wages, but receive
one-third. of the oysters they bring up,
the remaining two-thirds being taken
by a government agent and sold at
public auction to speculative buyers,
who gather from all parts of the ori -
eat. The pearl fishery usually lasts
from thirty to forty days, but does not
take place every year. If it did the
o
stor banks would soon be ruined.
Sometimes several years are allowed to
pass by without a fishery.
The diving is done after a primitive
fashion, and the stories told about the
marvelous length of time the divers
will remain under water are quite un-
founded. the record is 1 minute 49
seconds,
The auction, which lasts for several
days, is one of the most interesting
sights to be seen in Asia. The oysters
are sold in lots of 1,000, and of course
the purchaser is buying "a pig in a
poke." There may be no pearls in any
of his oysters or the first one he opens.
niay give him a fortune. This risk ap-
peals to the gambling spirit of the
orient, and pretty nearly all the races
from the Persian gulf to Japan are
represented at the sale.
Tile prices paid usually start low on
the first day. Then if the buyers have
found pearls in fair quantities bidding
is keen, and the prices jump skyward.
One year they varied from 15s. 4d, pet
1,000 on the first day to £12 17s. 10d,
on the second.
It is remarkable that the fisheries
are still so profitable, for there are
historical records that they were work-
ed therte.300 years before the birth of
Christ, and it is impossible to say how
many years before that date.
PITH AND POINT.
You are not expected to accept all
of your invitations.
Quit talking when it is plain the
other fellow isn't listening.
We wish we could have as good a
time as young people think they are
having.
Our punishment used to hang on a
nail behind the kitchen door. Where
did yours used to hang?
No matter how rich or influential any
man becomes, he can never be as in-
dependent as a hired girl.
All the old people seem to be look-
ing for the impossible—young people
with no foolishness about them.
Occasionally a roan talks of "always
wanting to do what's right," as if he
thought he had a monopoly on the
desire.
Passitag of the "Rube."
The "countryman" promises to be-
come extinct in the United States.
The "rube" is to follow the mastodon,
the Indian and the buffalo. The gen-
eration that conies after us will find
it hard to understand some of the pres-
ent day jokes of the "b'gosh," "I
swan" and "go] Bern" kind. Already
quite as many city folk buy gold
bricks in the country as country folk
do in the city. In fact, the biggest
and brightest gold bricks find their
market in town. A city bred man is
about as apt to tangle himself up in a
street car fender as Uncle Si is, and
not all the people that blow out the
gas come from the tall timber_
Coal Klan's Chief Worker.
Coal has become man's chief worker,
and horse labor and human manual
labor are slowly being pushed aside.
In the great transformation it has
been brain power that has triumphed
over brute strength. Man first sought
to shift his burden to the backs of
the beasts of the field, and the horse
became his patient friend and assist-
ant, but now he seeks to harness the
elemental forces of nature to do his
bidding. The burden is thus lightened
without cruelty to any living creature.
Neither man nor beast has had his la
bors increased, but steadily decreased,

How He Was Identified.
Josiah Quincy of Boston told with
glee of how he was once identified
by a laborer who was enlightening a

the first laborer.
"An' who is Josiah Quincy?" de-
manded the other.
"Don't ye know who Josiah Quincy
is?" demanded the first man. "I niver

**A w tl'rssatleat Joke.
A number of years ago a poverty
stricken painter, since fawnous and
prosperous, went to Paris from It roam
try village and .entered the studio of
Gerome at the klcole des Iicaux Arts,
The new student's first day chaneed to
be "criticism day,"and the older stu-
dents, finding themselves „cheated out
of their customary boisterous hazing
by Ma circumstance, resolved to have
their fun In an indirect fashlou,
Accordingly they took the novice
aside and impressed upon him in the
most friendly and confidential' way im-
aginable that he was under the obliga-
tion of giving a tip to the professor
when he criticised his work. Incredu-
lous at first, the callow youth let him-
self be convinced and promised to do
the proper thing, His means were so
small that he awaited his turn with an
111 concealed anxiety which those in
the plot relished keenly. When his
turn cane he convulsed d the room by
slipping a half franc piece into the pro-
fessor's hand.
Gerorne bas too familiar with the
practical jokes of the Beaux Arts not
to comprehend the situation, and had
much ado to keep his countenance. Ile
succeeded, however, and blurted out
with the gruffness which he assumed
so admirably:
"What does this mean? You'll do
well to come to see me some fine morn-
ing and straighten this thing out."
The bewildered pupil interpreted the
admonition literally and presented him-
self at Gerome's private studio two
days later. Genome received him like
a father, led him on to confess his des-
titution and to unburden himself of hie
hopes and fears, gave him good coun-
sel and restored to him his half franc
piece in the form of a twenty franc
gold piece.
THE MARQUIS PAID.
HOW the Farno:iN Surgeon Velpeau
Treated a Free Patient.
The famous surgeon Velpeau was
visited one day at his house during the
consultation hour by a marquis re-
nowned for his closeness. Velpeau in-
formed the marquis tbat an operation
was urgent and that the fee would
amount to 4,000 francs. At this the
marquis made a wry face and Ieft. A.
fortnight later Dr. Velpeau, while mak-
ing bis rounds in the Hospital de la
Charite, had his attention attracted
by a face that seemed familiar to him.
In answer to his inquiry it was stated
that the patient was a footman of a
nobleman in the Faubourg St. Ger-
main. The surgeon found that his
case resembled in every particular the
somewhat unusual one for which the
marquis bad consulted Mm a fortnight
previously. He refrained, however,
from making anycomments.
Three weeks after the operation,
when the patient was about to be dis-
charged, Dr. Velpeau called Min aside
and exclaimed: "Monsieur, I am ex-
tremely flattered and pleased to have
been able to cure you. There is, how-
ever, a small formality with which
you will have to comply before I can
sign your exeat—that is, you will have
to sign a check for 1,000 francs in be-
half of the public charity bureau of
your metropolitan district." The ia-
tieut's face became livid. "You can do
what you like about it," continued the
doctor, "but if you refuse all Paris
will know tomorrow that the Marquis
de D. adopted the disguise of a foot-
man in order to secure free treatment
at this hospital and to usurp the place
which belongs by right to a pauper."
Of course the marquis paid.
Cobweb Pills.
Andrew Wilson, the well known nat-
uralist and writer, in commenting on
Culpepper's "Complete Method," pub-
lished in 1632, shows how this enabled
a man to "cure himself, being nick, for
threepence charge, with such things
only as grow in England, they beieg
most fit for English bodies." "John

A physician tells the Washington
Post It is a widespread but erroneous
notion that the growth of ivy on the
exterior walls of residences creates a
damp habitation. He is satisfied a lit-
tle reflection will convince any one of
the fallacy of this proposition. The ivy,
instead of contributing to dampness
has rather an opposite influence, since
It must extract moisture from the
brick or stone tbat it overruns. The
dampness of these is what gives life
to the plant, so that the interior of the
house is rendered drier than it would
be otherwise.
