The Encore.
The beginning of the encore dates,’
back to some time between 1645 and,
1709, probably about 1680, when Louis
XIV. demanded the repetition of cer-
tain parts of an opera. The opera was
by Corneille, Fontenelle and Boileau,
which was sung before his majesty,
and the king was so pleased with cer-
tain parts that he asked to have them |
repeated. It took fully a century for
the ordinary opera gosrs to obtain the
king's prerogative for themselves. It
came about in this way: Gluck had .
produced an opera which had been a
failure; but, having rewritten the
worst parts, he produced it again. One
or two songs were accepted by the au-
dience with applause, and one in par-
ticular was demanded a second time,
The most remarkable encores on rec-
ord are those which were insisted upon
by the late king of Bavaria. Before he
was known to be insane, when merely
thought eccentric, he had plays per-
formed before him as the sole auditor,
the curtain rising at midnight. If he
liked the play he insisted on having it
repeated at once. But, unlike most en-
core fiends, he paid liberally for them.
Though our word ‘“encore” is adopt-
ed from the French, they themselves
do not make use of it in this connec-
tion. They call “Bis, bis,” and obtain
a repetition..—New York Herald.
THE RUSSIAN ICON.
It Is Simply a Religious Picture
Blessed by a Priest.
An icon is simply a religious picture,
generally’ of little artistic merit, and
the subject usually represented is ei-
ther a Russian saint, some event in the
life of Jesus Christ or the Virgin Mary.
In the Greek church, as in other Chris-
‘tian churches, the worship of graven
images is forbidden, but no objection
is made to anything reproduced on a
flat surface. Therefore icons are per-
mitted in the form of mosaics, paint-
ings, enamels or prints. They play an
important part in the religious life of
the Russians and are to be met with:
everywhere—in churches, public offices,
private houses and shops. A picture
to become an icon must be blessed by
a priest, and it is then regarded not on-
ly as an ornament, but as an accessory
in the worship of the Greek church.
Icons are also worn on the person,
when they take the form of a plaque
or a book with two leaves. Almost ev-
ery soldier wears one on his bosom,
and when he prays he takes out his
icon and, opening it, kneels down be-
fore it as If it were a portable altar.
Every regiment has its own icon,
which it carries as it would carry its
banner when the regiment goes into
battle.
THE PRICE OF A LIFE.
How It Was Fixed Under the Old
Anglo-Saxon Laws.
According to Anglo-Saxon laws, ev-
ery man’s life, including that of the
king, was valued at a fixed price, and
any one who took it could commute the
offense by a money payment upon a
fixed scale. The life of a peasant was
reckoned to be worth 200 shillings. that
of a man of noble birth 1,200 shil:’ zs,
and, the killing of a king involved ‘ie
regicide in a payment of 7,200 shil-
lings.
It has been pointed out that the heir
to the throne could thus get rid of the
existing occupant by murdering him
and thereafter handing over the fine,
according to the scale, to the excheqg-
uer, when his offense would be purged
and his money would come back to
himself, for in those days the sover-
eign received all fines as personal per-
quisites. There is very little doubt
that these rough means were practical-
ly applied in the case of some rulers of
England in the preconquest period.—
London Telegraph.
Two Edged Punishment.
An English newspaper says that a
schoolmaster was in the habit of pun-
ishing scholars who came late to
school in the morning by keeping
them in in the afternoon. One who
was five minutes late was kept in ten
minutes and so on in proportion. One
morning it chanced that the school-
master was half an hour late, and a
smart boy among his pupils was not
slow to remind him of the fact. “I'm
very sorry for being late, boys,” said
the schoolmaster, with a twinkle in his
eye, “and as I punish you it’s only fair
that you in turn should punish me, so
you will all stay and keep me in for an
hour this afternoon.”
A Browning Letter.
One of Browning's letters is a reply
to a young poet who wrote asking
Browning’s advice about publishing a
volume of poems. The reply, in part,
is as follows and may serve a useful
purpose to young poets of today as
well: “It sounds strange and almost
sad to me. that I should be imagined
of autiiority in this kind, I who for
years could not get a line printed ex-
cept at my own expense, and I began
half a century ago or more.”
Mistook the Punctuation.
The Young Woman (surprised and
indignant)—How dared you kiss me,
sir!. Penitent Young Man—Why. you
sald you'd like to see me do it. The
Young Woman—But you know as well
as I do that I said it with an exclama-
tion point at the end!'—Chicago Trib-
une.
Settling.
Smith—Jones, I'm going to marry
and settle down. Jones—Humph!
You'd better remain single and settle
up.
ORIENTAL WOMEN.
They Spend an Astonishing Amount
of Time Over Their Toilets.
An eastern lady of high degree
spends an amount of time over her
toilet that would quite astonish the
most fashionable society lady. First
she has her hair dressed by her maid,
who, after anointing the long, silky
black locks with a little oil made from
aloe wood or cocoanut, arranges it
simply in a long, smooth plait, low on
the nape of the neck, and decorated ei-
ther with gold or jeweled ornaments.
Next the bath is prepared as hot as’
it can be, and in this the lady may
stay as long as two or three hours.
Soaps are not used, but instead there
are multifarious unguents, secret prep-
arations of the bathing women, which
render the skin soft as velvet and deli-
cately perfumed. Oftentimes the face
is washed over with milk into which
has been squeezed lemon juice.
The hair of the oriental woman is
usually beautifully long, soft and
glossy, and the way they arrange it is
invariably becoming to their soft type
of beauty. Perfumes are much indulg-
ed in. These are introduced in the
bath and permeate the garments, but
are rarely used on a handkerchief.—
Philadelphia North American.

ion of himself than the Lord bas of him.
