The missionary was ai unco pale and yellow pale, lie explained, from an avoidance of t lie deadly Indian sun, yellow from a disordered liver. "Nevertheless," he said gayly, "liid.a for me tirsi. last and all the time. On the money you and your family ure paying at this hotel do you know how you would live in India?" lie lighted a cigarette and resumed: "You would live in a beautiful house set in a lovely garden, with a list of servants that would include a klian samnh, or butler; a khitmutgar, or ta ble servant; a oliokra, or page; a mus sulchee, or light bearer; a mug, or cook: two syces, or grooms; a bheestee. or water carrier; a snuiah, or house cooly; a niolli, or gardener; a dhobie, or washerman; a durzee, or private tailor; an ayah, or nurse; a sirdah, or valet; a furnish bearer, or lamp man; three punkah coolies to work the fans; a durman, or lodge porter; a jamadar, or footman, and several chuprassies, or messengers. JaiMineae Art Symbols. If a Japanese artist wishes to de scribe in color and design the antici pation of happiness he draws a picture which is a combination of an April evening, a moon, a nightingale and a plum tree or two. Victory Is sym twlieed by the Iris, grnoe and quiet ness by the willow tree and the swal low for symbols. Patriotism Is some times indicated by a spray of cherry blossoms. The almond flower is the flower of spring aud symtiolizes beauty. The dragon twines and writhes an artistic course through all Japanese art, root and brunch. His name is Tatsu, and when you see him pictured as fighting with a tiger It Is the symbol of religion lighting against power. A dragon floating about in the clouds means success In life. Tori, the cock, perched upon a drum, signifies good government. Both the ((reeks and the Japs use the butterfly to symbolize Im mortality. Ruth Baron Hubner went one evening te call upon President Thiers, who was then at the head of the French republic. The baron found the door of the house open and walked upstairs. In the dim light u man crept stealthily toward him. Knowing that (he president went in fear of his life and. unwilling to die n martyr in a cauee not his own. the baroa hurriedly explained, "I am not M. Tliiers." "I know that you are not M. Thiers," answered the mysteri ous stranger, "but I want to know who you are." Before answering the baron Insisted upon knowing the identity of his companion. "Oh, I am M. Thiers' butler," was the answer. Hubner de clared himself. "Ah," said the butler, with a sigh of relief, "I have your name first on the list of visitors. Each had taken the other for an as sassin. Worked the Ttff«rn. Near Perak, lu the Malay peninsula, is a prosperous rubber factory run by a long headed Scotchman. In order to obtain the sap from which the rubber is made it is necessary to puncture the bark of the trees. Laborers tire scarce In that district, but there Is an abun dance of tigers. There were not uuougb men to "tap" the trees, but the Scotch proprietor hit on a brilliant idea. He knew that tigers are fond of valerian, so he gave orders that all the trees should be rubbed with this stuff. The tigers came up and caressingly scratched the bark in the most tip proved herringbone fashion, after which all that the coolies had to do was to walk around once a day and collect the rubber. Aromatic l'etit Larceny. "1 hope you notice how sweet i am." smiled the girl when they were out on the street again. "While the man was wrapping up tin; toothbrush 1 was trying all the perfume on the counter. He looked 211 me awfully hard." "I should think lie would have had you arrested," remarked her companion severely. "What if everybody tried all the perfumes like that? How much would he have left to sell?" —New York Press. Like II ll«t( \V*trli. Mamma bud not noticed the clock striking during all of the afternoon and, thinking perhaps it hail stopped, she asked little liita togo into the hall aud see if it was running. After a hasty survey of the long pendulum swinging back -ami forth, liita ran back and announced: "Why, no, mamma, it isn't running. It's standing still and wagging its tail."—Harper's Weekly. A Helpful Wife. "Ladies and gentlemen," said the after dinner orator, "unaccustomed as I am to public speaking, and having been suddenly called upon without the slightest notice, I tun—er —exceedingly —er''— "Why, John," said his wife from the other end of the table, "have you for got the rest? You said it all right this morning." KuturcVt MetliodN. Nature is no spendthrift, but takes the shortest way to her ends. As the general says to his soldiers, "If you want a fort, builil a fort," so nature makes every creature do Its own work and get its living, be it planet, animal or tree.—Emerson. Chance itml Accident. It is a mortifying truth, and ought to tench the wisest of us humility, that many of the most, valuable discoveries have been the result of chance rather than of contemplation and of accident r.ilber than of design.

They do not say "Turn to the right," but "Turn t<> the west." If a table in a room has two tumblers on it. one of them w ill be the east tumbler, the other the west, and the table itself will be not the "table near the window," but the "table in the east of the room." So they speak of the north or south side of a street or of a tree, not the shady or sunny side. Even In rain or mist they know the direction at once. An English traveler, walking In the Burinan forest on a foggy morning to lind all trace of the road wiped out by rain and every ap parent means of ascertaining direc tion gone, was at a loss what to do, but his Burman servants knew at once. "Thatds north," they said, point ing, "and that is east. Our course lies between," and straight to the north east they niarelied unefringlv. Helgoland Soup. What do the Ilelgolanders do with their birds? Some are sent away to the Hamburg market aud the rest kept for home consumption. Boasting be ■ fore a alow fire, with the tail on, over toast, Is practically an unknown art wat least one rarely practiced. Every thing goes Into the pot for soup. "Tros selsoup" is an institution much lauded. Mr. Gatke tells us how it should be ♦prepared.

Ln November and December these gulls are very fat and when prepared In Helgolandlsh fashion are considered a delicacy, although a somewhat fishy one. The gray crow Is also a very fa 'vwit*> dish.—('handlers' Journal. I Be«»r« Wh* Take the "Care,*' Begging* seem* to be a lucrative call ing in Vienna. In one of the district police courts a man and his wife were summoned to appear on a charge of begging iu the street*.

The pawnbroker knows Just what people think about His stock, many of them having learn ed from experience that he will pay ■ uext to nothing on the best quality of ' Jewelry and silverware, watches, etc., and they thus get it into their heads 1 that all the articles sold at auction are genuine goods.

With his bare hands lie gently rubbed the mud from it He then took it to the pave | niont and laid it down on a clean spot i on the curbstone.

I am sure that the I little sparrows or a hungry dog will I get nourishment from this bit of | bread." The Kingfisher. Many and curious are the legends of the kingfisher. One of these is to the : effect that the bird was originally a I plain gray in color, but upon being let loose from the ark llew toward the | setting sun and had its back stained blue by the sky and its lower plumage ! scorched by the sun to gorgeous hues. The dried body of the kingfisher was once used as a charm against thundcr ' bolts and moths, and it was hung up ! so that it might point with its bill tc ! the wind's quarter.

German schoolmasters an- said to have bad much to do with the victory of the Germans in their Into war with France, anil in this connection Sir Hcur.v lioscoo tolls tliis incident of his inspection of the professional school in ilouen, France: "Among the usual ob jects I noted with surprise a Prussian soldier's helmet. On being asked why he placed it there the schoolmaster stated that it was picked up In the streets of Itouen during the German kivaslou. Ann he added that it was of p-oat service to him, for when the scholars did not attend to their work he used to bring this down and put it in his desk and, pointing to It, say: 'Now, if you do not make progress and learn properly this will happen to you Igalu. The surest way to bring It apon you is to neglect your studies arid grow up in ignorance and to become in ferior in intellectual training. The display of that helmet,' explained tiro director, 'never falls to bring the blush of shame to the cheeks of loy students and to rouse their patriotism and their teal for their studies.' " Women Cannot Cut I)lM mondn. "'A lot of women seem to be postx-owd these days of an ambition to learn the trade of diamond cutting,'* the New York gun reports one Jeweler a» say ing. "Every little while an applicant for a situatiou as an apprentice gives us a call. But we can't afford to give them a trial. Ihey can never master the art. In other branches of the Jew elry trade women have made some un qualified successes. Not one of Bve'a daughters, from royalty down, 1 should say, that isn't an artist In tho wearing of diamonds. Many arc well vereed in the tricks of buying and selling them, while others give excellent satisfaction iu polishing aud preparing them for the market. But when It comes to the real cutting of the stones they lack the patience. Judgment and steadiness of nerve which constitute the expert's stock In trade." The Marvel of Notre Dane. Often as I have seen Notre Dame, the marvel of it never grows lees. I go to Paris with no thought or time for It, busy about many other things, and then on my way over one of the bridges across the river perhaps I see It agaiu on its island, the beautiful towerg high above the high roofs of bouses and palaces, and the view, now so familiar, strikes me afresh with nil the wonder of my first Impression. The wonder only seems greater If 1 j turn, as I am always tempted to, «mj 1 walk down the quays on the left bank, the towers before me and with every ! step comlug more and more complete j ly together, by the Pont Neuf, to the | island and at last to the great square where Notre Dame fronts me In its j superb calm.— Elizabeth Robins Pen ( oell In Century. Why He Qitt the Game. "Take a hand?" queried Smith as | Jones stood watching the poker game 1 «t the club. I "No. Quit." | "What's the matter—cold feet?"

A man visiting a lunatic asylum re j cently was conversing with some of i (he outdoor patients when a man rode j up on horseback.
