father, for I will marry."
Then tho king Bald: "Katu Tanlto,
choose a wife, observing these three re.
qnirements First, that she be young;
second, that she be strong, and third,
that she bo obedient."
Mv father," renlied the young man,
is it not also n requirement that she be
beautiful?"
Tho king answered, "Obedience is
beauty."
Tul Viti," Bald Kara Tanlto, "I uaye
chosen a wife. She is young forshe was
born on the day when I first stood erect,
She is strong for she can abide tne grasp
of my hand without flinching. She is
obedient for she has honored her parents.
And she is beautiful us the day and
lovely as the night. When I see her my
heart is as a basin In which the springs
surge hotly up and fall back in tumult."
"Who is the maiden? ' said tue King.
'Tier name is Ekfesa," tho youth re
plied. "She dwells in Vanua Leva, and
is the daughter of Savenaka, Its king."
Have you spoken to her or love?" tne
king asked.
"Np, said Katu Tanlto.
Go and sneak with Her concerning
her parents," said the king.
Tui Katubua having thus commanded,
Ratu Tanito departed by night in his
canoe to Vanua Levu. And on a day
he returned and his brow was clear, nnd
he came before the king and said, "Tul
Viti, I have performed your commands
and have spoken with the maiden Ekesa
concerning her parents."
The king received the words of Ratu
Tanito, and looking on his son said,
"Abide now with me ana at tne end or
the eeven davs co again to the maiden
and speak with her concerning war and
combats with the 6harks." And Ratu
Tanlto did as he was commanded and
returned with a clear brow and said,

And Ratu Tanito departed ana came to

think such were her words, but of a ver
ity I heard not certainly, being much
provokod, and having driven my foot
against a-root as we wanted.
'Then you have quarreled witn tne
maiden? ' said Tul Katubua.
"No," said Katu Tanito, "I am not.i
woman. I forbore to answer uer, ana
after she had spoken for a time and had
sworn she would marry no man who

Then said Tul Katubua, "Uo now.

women or vnnua t,evn are tllo eqnara w
the men In Viti Levu. For tliat reason
wo have wnt to bring yon here. And
we will propose to yon three tests
which, if yon answer rightly and jnstly,
yon shall depart home In safety and wa
will offer yon gifti; and, moreover, yon
shall lead my son home with you to be
yonr slnvo ns a reparation- for the wrong
done yon. This I swear to you, nnd he
shall compete with yon In the tests.
Whereat the rnncess cried out.
"Ho is ignorant, what they are to be,"
said the king. " 'Tis n fait match. Be
hold, he Is na mnch surprised ns yon
are."
"And if-if 1 lose?' said Ekesa.
"You shall marry him," said the king.
Then the king said, "Princess, aro you
ready for the first test?"
Dnt, Bald Ekesa, "I have not yet ac
cepted your conditions."
"Katu Tanito," said the king, "behold
your wife!"
"Nay!" cried the princess, "I nm In
your jiower. Propose to me your tests
nnd let your son prepare for n life of
slavery."
Katubua thereupon caused two tur
tle's eggs to bo laid before tho princess
and paid: "Maiden, of these two eggs
which will bring forth a male turtle nnd
which n femnlc? This is the first test
that wo propose to you."
At this the princess crossed her arms
upon her breast and laughed scornfully.
"This is n test of folly, not of wisdom,"
she said. "Not all the men In the world
could declare of which of these two eggs
should be born n male turtle nnd which
a female."
Bnt Ratu Tanito stepped forward
quickly and took the eggs into his hand
and crushed them. "Of neither," he
said.
Then Katubua said, "Maiden, though
in truth the question seems idle, yet the
youth is light, for n man must know
when to act.
Next there were brought forth two
bowls, each covered with a mat of woven
grass. And Katnbun said: "This is the
second test. Of these two bowls chooso
that which is full of water."
Ekesa trembled, but quickly stretched
out her hand nnd laid it on the nearest
bowl, saying, "This is it."
'Choose you, now," said the king to
Katu Tanito.
Bnt Ratu Tnnito crossed his arms
npon his- bieast nnd said, "Not so; for
who should say that both bowls are not
inipty?"
Then tho king drew away the mats of
woven grass and both bowls were empty.
Maiden," said Ivatubua, "the youth is
right, for a man should know when to
speak."
Tiienuesa bitlicr up and said, "You
juggle with me."
Yet," said Katubua, "the youth has
detected our jugglery. But here is the
third test and perhaps yon will Btul win
him for a slave. Which loves a child
better, his father or she who bore him?"
Ekesa s eyes flashed and she drew her
self np. "Of a truth, tho who bore
him," she cried.
Ratu Tanlto turned and looked npon
the girl, and slowly there came into his
flashing eyes n tender light, but he did
not speak.
At this bkesa called to the king, "Tul
Viti, he does not speakP
And he la right," said tne king., "I or
man should Know wnen to be silent."
Then Ekesa stamped her foot and cried
aloud in bitterness:
It was n trap! You have warned him
what answers he should make and have
plotted between you to shame me
Shame rather on you, Tul Katubua! '
Ratu Tanito strode to her side and
caught her by the wrist and said:
Uo back to yonr people. I will none
of you. i ou have dishonored my father,
Go back to your people. Make a way
there for the princess," he shouted to the
crowd. "Make n canoe ready and set
her on tho shores of Vanua I,evu."
But Ekesa's eyes fell and she did not
move; only stood in her place trembling.
Then Katubua said, "Ekesa, my (laugh
ter, the Philosopher Raveniza has asked.
When should a woman disobey her hus.
band?"'
And Ekesa lifted her tearful eyes and
answered, ''Never, oh, my father, save
when he bids her leave him."
And of the union of Ekesa and Rata
Tanito was born the great King Rata
Cakan, whom men called tho Beat of
Justice, and also Tnnivaln, the Root of

Loudon l.lfo In Kllzabeth's Time.
In Elizabeth's time the ordering of the
household was strict. Servants and
prentices were up at G in the summer
and at 7 In the winter. No one ono on
any pretence, except that of illness, was
to absent himself from morning and
evening prayers: there was to be no
striking, no profane language. Sunday
was clean shirt day. Dinner was at 11,
supper at 0. There was no publio or
private omce whicu was not provided
with n Bible. In tho better classes thero
was a general enthusiasm for learning of
all kinds, Tho ladles, Imitating the ex
ample of the queen, practiced embroid
ery, wrote beautifully, played carious
instruments, knew how to sing in parts,
dressed with as much magnificence as
they could afford, danced the coranto
and the lavolta as well as the simple hey,
and studied languages Latin, Greek
and Italian.
The last was the favorite language.
Many collected books. Dr. John Dee
had as many as4,000,of which 1,000 were
manuscripts. They were arranged on
the shelves with the leaves turned out

silken string. The books were bound
with great care and cost; everybody
knows the beauty of the typo used in

Zftihlnc a Fuss.
Many years ago a prominent clergy.
man was consulted by the ladles of his
corigregation about certain clerical work
in which they were interested. Smiling
at their earnestness, he said: "That's
tight, ladles; make n fuss inako a fuss!
That s the only way to get work done in
this worldl Set about it yourself and
make n fuss while you do!" And bo it
is. Thinking about wrongs and sighing
over them never mended one. But the
people who exeit themselves to right the
wrong, making n good stir about It
while they do, nnd worrying nt other
people to exert themselves, tao, will often
force the other people into activity in
sheer self defense.
The other people would like to sit
quiet and take it out in sighing, but
these energetio f ussers will not let them,
At last, to get rid of the agitators, they
rouse up, go to work with a will, and
accomplish what Is asked of them for
the sake of the peace they obtain there
by. But whatever their motive, all
mankind hus the benefit. It is not only
well to get wrongs righted, it is also
well to get slnggish people stirred up

Sherbet.
No reader of eastern tales but has

but it may be flavored endlessly. Thus
there are sherbets prepared with sirups
of raspberry or pineapple, with lemon,
orange or pomegranate juice. The w&tor
must be always cold, and If possible have
blocks ot frozen snow floating in thtycnp,
but the mixture should never effervesce.

In a Maine town near the seacoast
was one of many communities where the
men were, so to speak, a cross between
farmers nnd sailors, and where, as a
natural conbequence, the cultivation of
the soil was somewhat neglected.
The minister of a neighboring town
exchanged with the minister of this
community, and as n drought was upon
them the people sent him n request that
he would pray for rain. This he did,
as follows:
'O Lord, thy servant is asked by this
people to pray for rain, and he does so.
But thou knowest, U Lord, that what
this soils needs is dressin." Atlantic

flSiIltln, An Attempt to Stampede
Sprlngrr Men to Milts.
Wasiiinqtov. Dee JJ. A conference of
tho Illinoh dclegntion war hold last night on
tho strength of n notice wrvwl on Mr.
Springer that four of his men would with
draw from him and go to Mr. Mills. They
were Newberry, Hthlan, Formnn and
Wilte. All four are Iwlieved to bo moving
under the Inspiration of Colonel Morrison.
Mr. Springer refuwd to rtieaw the would
bo acccdere. Ho ww-i that a brook In his
delegation would bo followed by n break In
Iowa, which would give Mr. Mills some
thing of a boom in the northwest After
tho conference Mr. Springer aid:
Tlie Iowa and Illinois delegations have
Just assured me that they will stand by me
until tho last hope is gone. There Is abso
lutely no truth in tho report that any or my
men are leaving. I am sure of fifty-wven
Totes on the Crat tKillot."
It 1 MI11V flrrAt Ilopu.
It can bo seen by this demonstration
against tb Springer column wherein lice
the hope of tho Mills i-copie. They will now
hammer away on that lino until, in some
way, they make an impression. Tho race
must narrow down between Judge Crisp
and Judge Mills before unlay, or elso
MIDa will go into the caucus heavily handi
capped. His supporters are working with a
will and still assert that they will win the
fight. Judge Crisps friends sny that Mr.
Mills can derive no great advantage from
the discomfiture of Mr. Springer. They de
clare that their favorite has a good deal of
strength himself as second choice in the
northwest.
MUM, n.li Crlp pS-
sffTho Mills men claim sixty-live pledged
ToteB. They concede Judge LTisn eighty-
five votes. Is there treachery in the Illinois
deleeatlon! This question ima occupieu at
tention here today to tho exclusion of nearly
everything elso relating to the speakership
contest.
The latest rumor is unit mt naves, oi
Iowa, is endeavoring to detach tho vote of
that state from Springer and give it to
Mills. Mr. Hayes admitted that his sympa
thies were with Mr. Mills in tho race. All
of this goes to prove that Judge Crisp's lead
is provocative of combinations against nun,
Tbe Crisp claim that the Georgia candidate
has more pledced votes today than Mr.
Mills, Mr. Springer and Mr. Hatch com
bined, so tliat if Mr. Mills la to Btand a
ghost of a chanco to win ho must gather In
tbe vote now in tno columns oi me otner
candidate.
How MeMlllln hiu! llittrh Stand.
Mr. MeMillin holds his own, but Is not
growing. Ilia supporters are loyal, but with
him out of the race the majority of them
would go to Judge Crisp. Mr. MeMillin
himself is believed to favor Mr. Mills. Mr.
Hatch is serene, but emphatic.
Dalton and Maish both withdrew from
the race for clerk, Mr. Kerr, of Pennsyl
vania, seems to have tho lead in that race.
