I«ed« That Are L'nod For Food and Ornament In India. A seed much used for ornament Is that which bears the popular name of Job's tears. The old botanist O era rile thus describes It: "Every gralne re sembleth the drop or tear that falleth from the eye." There are, however, now three or four well marked forms of this seed met with In India, which differ from each other In shape, color and degree of hardness and In the pres vuce or absence of grooves or furrows along the length 01 the hardened ln volucer. Dr. Watt of Calcutta thus enumer ates them: "There are three types of shape—a long cylindrical or tubular, a normal pear shaped condition and a flattened spheroidal form. The cylin drical grain Is always of a white col or, smooth, polished, not furrowed, but constricted toward both extremities. This is collected for ornamental pur poses only and not as an article for food. The pear shaped form varies in size aud color, beiug pale and bluish white, gray, yellow or browu black. The flattened spheroidal kinds are of ten yellow or even pink. "The two principal forms are: One almost round and either white or mack. This form Is sometimes, though less frequently, used for rosaries and orna mental purposes, but chiefly for food auioug the .hill tribes of India. The second form is tubular, about half an Inch long. This is extensively employ ed for decorative purposes, the dresses worn by the Karen women being often completely covered with embroidered designs of this grain." FAIRLY TRAPPED. Clever Manner In Wkleh BaUac Outwitted Uli Publisher. No man knew the value of Balzac's writings better than the famous French novelist himself, a fact which he never failed to Impreas upon his publishers when terms were l>elng discussed. On oue occasion, as Bullae ant smok ing In a friendly fashion with a well known publisher, he remarked casual 'y: "Now, I want your candid opinio:*. Honestly, do you believe that I have as much talent as Frederic Soulle?" "My dear Balzac, liow can you ask?" answered hla unsuspecting companion. "Why, you have twice hi* literary ca pacity." "Well, as I consider bis works Im measurably superior to anything of Eugene Sue's, I suppose I must huv« more talent than Sue too?" "Of course you have." "Twice as much, according to you. Well. lam glad. And now tell me hon estly, as we are discussing literary merits, surely I am as good as Dumas)" "Better -better." "Thank goodness, our opinions coin cide. And now, since my novels uro .worth twle said, says one of Balzac's biographers. The un fortunate publisher had been trapped and owned It. Polva nnd RhmUb*. Hugo Canz In his book on Russia writes as follows of the relations exist ing between the 11 ush lau officials and the Poles: "They remain separate, like oil aud water. The Russian, even though he Is the master, Is of no conse quence here. It Is only necessary to ob serve for the space of an hour from some corner of tbe elegant dining room of the hotel the behavior of the Polish society aud the complete Isolation of the Russlnn officers or officials. It Is only necessary to be able to distinguish the gsoups from oue another—the Bal tic nobility with their almost bourgeois families, merchants from all the prin cipal countries, Russian functionaries and Polish society—ami It will at once become clear who Is at home here, firmly rooted to the soil, so that all oth ers become strangers and Intruders.

When Payne wrote "There's No Pla« Like Home," he gave pontic expressioi to the love he bore toward the ILgU Qook more precious than "temples 01 palaces." What flowers of rhetoric could approach in power of assertlot these five little monosyllabic words "There's No Place Like Home"—tc gainsay which were impossible!

She pleaded to be reinstated, but the merchant said: "Our business must goon. We cannot wait until you bury your dead. This storo never closes." A few years later the only son of this flint heart died, and the girl wrote this letter: "You discharged me because I remained at home long enough to bury my mother, saying: 'Our business must goon.

Male ostriches battle for supremacy and admiration of the females with as much ferocity as stags, bulls, buffuloei and other anlmuls. An ostrich battle la amusing, us It amounts practically to a boxing match with the feet, la which the males dance around each other llgbtly. There la tfcls difference, however: If any boxer could bit as bard as an ostrich with one of bis feet he might settle the championship with a single blow. It must not be supposed that the ostrich will not strike his an tagonist with Ills terrible beak. In sparring the ostrich stands 011 one foot, with the other foot and wings raised, bill vide open and neck distended. 11a strikes with the force of n trip hammer, and In lighting both birds warily dodge blows.
