Bellefonte, Pa., March 24, 1905. A Test of Raging, Let nim who pretends to be a master of English letters say whether he has read the prose works of Milton and of Dryden. Has he first hand knowledge of the Elizabethan dramatists other than Shakespeare? Has he really pe- rused all of Edmund Spenser’s poetry? What does he know from his own read- ing of the “Advancement of Learn- ing?’ Has he read all of Sir Thomas Browne's prose and John Donne's po- etry? And the great English pulpit orators—Jeremy Taylor, Fuller, South end Barrow—has he mastered their ser- , mons? | Can he truthfully testify that he | knows all of Swift, Johnson and Burke, all of Bishop Berkeley, Daniel Defoe, the novels of Richardson, Field- ing, Smollett and Sterne, the histories of Hume, Robertson and Gibbon and also Hume’s philosophical essays, the prose of Coleridge, Wordsworth’s “Ex- cursion,” all of Shelley, Jane Austen’s, Maria Edgeworth’s and Disraeli’s nov- els? These are English classics, books which no gentleman’s library should be without and with the contents of which a well read man ought to be ac- quainted. One would wager much against.littie that the ordinary man who calls him- self well read has not read 50 per cent Servants in Eagland. wuue mistresses and housemaids in this country are struggling to solve the vexed “servant problem” they do not appear to take into consideration the fixed forms of etiquette governing the treatment of servants in England, which probably do much toward pro- moting mutual understanding between the servants and the served over there. A housekeeper, a lady’s maid and a head nurse belong to the heirarchy of a household. A lady’s maid wears no cap and when in attendance on her lady is expected to be well but quietly dressed in black or some sober coloring. Her wages are from $150 to $200 a year, with the reversion of her employ- er's wardrobe. An English maid is al- ways called by surname, “Smith” or “Jones,” but a foreign maid’s first name is used, ‘‘Marie” or “Francoise.” A lady speaking of her maid to other upper servants, such as the butler or the housekeeper, would style her “Smith” or “Marie,” but when men- tioning her to housemaids or footmen she would be careful to allude to her as “Miss Smith” or “Mlle. Marie.”— New York American. The German Professor. “With the passing of the old type of | German professor—formerly the butt of the comic papers, he of the shabby ' clothes and absent air—has gone much of the old student life of Munich,” writes N. Hudson Moore. “The mod- ern professor is dressed in the mode. He commands a large salary which, with his fees for lectures, often ex- ceeds that of the German secretary of state. He enjoys his advantages, good clothes, good food, the opera, athletics, and, according to a critic of his own na- tionality, ‘his aspirations are often dis- tinctly commercial’ Many German professors earn from 50,000 to 200,000 marks (4 marks to the dollar) a year, so the period of a pipe and garret is quite past.” Mr. Finnegan’s “Filosophy.” Wanst they wuz a man na-amed Dor- gan—or was ut Clancy ?—lived clost be a fri'nd av moine an’ had a fur-r-nace thot wudden’t git fairly shtarted inny da-ay until along toords noight jusht whin ut wuz toime t’ bank ut up fer the noight.

She--No. As a rule, he merely Music Ax A Lure. The death deuling cobra is passion- ately fond of music, and it is through this means that its capture is often ac- complished. The men in India who can effect the capture of this deadly reptile must be possessed of remark- able skill or their lives are the forfeit. When a cobra takes up its abode in the neighborhood of a dwelling house it is customary to send for the professional snake charmers. One of them strikes up a tune near the place where the snake is supposed to be located. No matter what the creature may be do- Ing, it is at once attracted by the sound of music. It emerges slowly from its hiding place and strikes an attitude in front of the performer. There it is kept engaged with the music while the other man creeps up behind with a handful of dust. At a convenient mo- ment, when the cobra is standing mo- tionless, this man suddenly throws the dust over the head and eyes of the snake. Immediately the cobra falls its length upon the ground and remains there for one short second, but the sec- ond is enough. With a movement like lightning the man seizes the body of the prostrate serpent just below the head. In great anger the cobra winds itself round and round the arm of its captor, but to no purpose, for it cannot turn its head and bite. If the fangs are to be extracted at once the captor presses his thumb on the throat of the cobra and thus compels it to open its mouth. The fangs are then drawn with a pair of pinchers. If, however, he wishes to keep the snake intact for the present the musician comes to help him and forcibly unwinds the coils and places the body in a basket, all but the head, which is firmly held by the other man. He presses down the lid to pre- vent the cobra from escaping, and sud- denly the captor thrusts the head in and bangs the lid. A very expert performer can capture the snake single handed, though it is highly dangerous. While playing with one hand he throws the dust sideways with the other and captures the snake with the same hand. The whole action must be like a flash of lightning, for a half second’s delay or the merest bun- gling in throwing the dust or catching the snake would prove fatal to the operator. A Real Miser. They were seated at the supper ta- ble. “Say, ma.” queried little Dolly, “what is a miser?” “A miser, my dear,” answered the The Bushido. “The bushido” means “the moral doc- trines of the samurai,” and they are obeyed by all the statesmen, soldiers and scholars of Japan of the present time with as much holy respect as the Christian's reverence for the Bible and its teachings. In Japan Buddhism is the popular religion, but Buddhist teachings are not respected by educat- ed men or soldiers. In fact, most of them are atheists or agnostics, who do not believe in any religion but the doctrines of “the bushido.” “The bushido,” for instance, teaches a man or woman to have the courage to perform the hara kiri if he or she com- mits a serious offense. The spirit of this doctrine is that the offender should kill himself instead of waiting to be executed by the law, which latter is considered in Japan as one of the most cowardly thing. “The bushido” also teaches that the life of a Japanese is a gift of the holy mikado, and if the country needs the lives of her people they should be given gladly, for that is only to return to the mikado what they have received from him. To die on the battlefield is the only key for a Japanese to find his way to his Shinto heaven, and the soldiers who were not killed on the battlefield are considered unfor.unate. It is main- tained in Japan that if a man gives you a favor or money or pleasure you should return it with more than what was given to you—Hydesaburo Ohashi in Leslie’s Weekly. a Attorneys -at-Laws.
