A MISSED KISS. patesuntnas fo) ‘T¥o Reason Why Two Ambastsdors Lost Theie Places. — 'O antbassadors have lost: their through thetr failure to take acVantage afforded them to kiss the band of the czarina, says the Seattle Post-InteJligencer. Count Montebello, the French ambassador, lost his place. Tt is not made known whether he only obeyed orders or not, but he had’ to Suffer the penalty. It was very unfor- tunate for him that when the French People through their government. had undertaken to show their friendship for Russia by a most lavish display of ostentatious ceremony and the ex- Penditure of many millions of dollars, the entire effect should be lost by the failure of the chief functionary to press his lips to the imperial hand. The other ambassador who lost his po- sition is Prince Radalin, the represent- ative at the Russian court of the Ger- man empire. No reason is given for his omission to observe a customary act of homage. He had not the excuse of being the minister from a republic. He represented a court where such ceremonies are strictly observed and an imperial master who is as strict in requiring observance of court etiquette as the Russian emperor. These pun- ishments should be a warning to all men never to lose a favorable oppor- tunity to kiss a lady’s hand. Many a man has lived to regret that he has not seized a suitable occasion to snatch a kiss; there seems to be more danger in being too remiss than in being too bold. Where the danger lies and how great it will be either in abstaining or acting is a matter for individual judg- ment. But it is sometimes werth risk- ing, it would seem. Unchristian Names. It is curios how inconsistent are the prejudices of people in regard to the use of heathen names. Mr. Payn, in his “Gleams of Memory,” tells an amus- ing story of the late Dean Burgon, who objecied to tne name of the goddess of beauty, bur found no fault with that of the gcd of the woods. An infant was brought to the church for christ- ening, and the name proposed for it was “Vanus.” “Varus?” repeated the dean. “I suppose you mean Venus. Do you ‘magine I am going to call a Christian child that name, and least The father of the wished to 1a male child! infant urgei that he only name it after grandfather. “Your grandfather!” cried the dean. “I don’t ve is your grandfather? He was prod ved; a poor old soul of 80 | or so, bent double, and certainly not looking in the least like the goddess in question. “Do you mean to teil me, sir, that any clergyman ever christened you ‘\anus,’ as you call it?” “Weil, no, sir; | was christened Syl- vanus, but they always calls me *Van- ua.’ ”” Coachmen and the Church. The private secretary. of the late Archbishop Benson, Mr. Mandeville B. Jlillips, recails, in the January Sun- day Magazine, a couple of good stories which the primate used to tell. One day a clergyman who called at the pal- ace asked Archbishop Tait's ceachman whether he had still as much to do as ever. The «nswer was sublime. “There’s always a goodish bit doing, but it’s been a trifle e; young Mr. Parry into the bus- The Right Rev. Edward Parry had recently been appointed Bishop Suffzagan of Dover. Another of the Archbishop’s stories, also of a coach- man, will be new to many. A gente- sir, FAMINES IN INDIA. - Records of Some of the Most Destruet- tyes Former Years. With an overcrowded population of 200,000,000 peasants whose annual sup- ply of food depends on a rainfall sub- ject: to Seclded irregularities, it is in- evitable that India should suffer from frequent and destructive famines. Me- teorologi¢al observations have dis- closed no rule of periodicity in these failures of rainfall by which seasons of drought can be forecast with cer- tainty. They have, on the other hand, established the fact- that the fall is never either deficient or excessive in any single year throughout the whole of India, says a writer in the New York Observer. There is always a re- serve of food supply in some part of the area which may be drawn upon for use in the needy districts. It has been discovered, too; that winters marked by an excessive snowfall in the Him- alayas are always followed by dimin- ished summer rainfall, generally in northern India, but sometimes in other portions of the great peninsula. Apart from these few facts, gathered within the last quarter of a century, there is little data from which seasons of drought may be forecast, though it is known that a drought, generally extends over two or more years. The approach of scarcity: can be determined: only in the year in which it actually occurs, and by @ sys- tem of observations beginning with the June rainfall and continuing until autumn. Of the extent of. the suffer- ing from drought and erop failure in the Asiatic world Western peoples have but a faint conception. In the great droughts in northern China in 1877-78 no less than 9,500,000 persons perished; and although during the present century at least no single fam- ine in, India has attained that magni- tude, it is estimated that in the score or more disasters which have oc- curred, between 15,000,000 and 20,000,- 000 lives have been lost. That which began in 1875 and culminated in 1877 was the most prolonged and destruc- tive, resulting. in the death of. 5,500,- 000 persons. In 1865-66 # third of the population of 3,000,000 starved to death in Orissa, and in 1868-70 about 1,500,- 000 died frora want in Rajputana. The famine of 1861 in the northwest prov- inces was a huge calamity, and the Berar drouth of 1873-74 was only pre- vented from becoming so by lavish ex- penditure on the part of the Indian government. Prior to the white con- quest famines of immense dimensions devastated the peninsula, resulting oc- casionaily in an appalling decimation of the feebler classes of the population. | These classes are always so near star- man living in the neighborhood of Ad- | dington, finding that the stablemen were not in the habit of attending church, spoke to his coaechman about it. “‘They ought to go,” he said. “That's just what I say myself,” was the rejoinder; “I say to them: look at go, and what harm does it do Willing to Pay. Among the prettiest of literary anec- dotes is that related by William Grimm, one of the pair of famous story-tellers, One day a fittle girl rang the bell, and greeted the author with the words: “Are you Mr. Grimm who writes the pretty tales?” “Yes,” was the answer. brother.” “And the story about that clever lit- tailor who married the princess7” es, certainly.” “We'l,” said the child, gravely pro- daeing the book, “it says here that ev- ery one who doesn't believe the story maust pcy a thaler.

President G. Stanley Hall of intversity has Jately been studying the rigin of various forms of fear and ter- ror, aud he suggests that the common fear of hig places, which many ani- mals cxhibit, and which is very acute with some human beings, may be “a vestigial trance, like the gill slits under tbe skin of our necks, antedating limbs and inherited from our swimming an- cestors.” In reply to this Professor Wesley Mills of McGill University says | that while the youngest mammals and pirds exhibit peculiar manifestations when placed near the edge’of an ele- vated surface, yet a turtle wili walk off any elevated support again and again, anc a frog “will jump almost .any- where.” These exceptions, he thinks, present 2 difficulty to the acceptance of President Hall's. theo} Clark | vation that a season of drouth reduces them at once to extremities of hun- ger. famine relief in India were of the usual Asiatic sort * the shops of the grain deslers were sacked and (heir owners murdered. When that tailed the offices of the native governments were besieged and when the royal gran- aries were emptied the gods were pro- nitiated with sacrifices, evding with the € aughter of buman victims and the distribution Gf their flesh over the barren fields. But during the past thirty years these devices have given way to th remedial measures of a more practical and effective kind. Taught by long experience, the govern- ment of india has elaborated a system of relief, machinelike in its opéra- tions, capable of being put into effect at any time and of adjustment to the needs of any particular scarcity. The old noticn that a government cannot be made responsible for deaths from arvalion any more than for deaths by fever has disappeared. LEvery rural of- ticial is made to feel his responsibility | and is minutely instructed beforehand as to his particular duty in such stages of scarcity. First a system of, crop forecasts gives notice of the possible approach of famine. When the possi- bility becomes from further reports probability the government begins ac- tive preparations to meet it. Its fore- easts may not prove correct but it acts at once and energetically, knowing that if it waits to verify its estimates action will be too late to be effectual. Fish Chew Tobacco, Francis Harding, living near Lilly lake, N. Y., has made a discovery. He was out tip-up fishing, and had cut several holes in the ice. He had wait- ed in vain for a bite for several hours, when he happened to toss a quid of tobacco in one of the holes. Quick as a flash it was snapped up and disap- peared beneath the water. This gave him an idea, and, pulling up one of his many hooks, he placed a piece of plug tobacco on it. Instantly there was a four-pound pickerel. Francis then dis- tributed his remaining supply of to- bacco on the yaricus: hooks, and the result.was that in half'an hour he had over fifteen pounds of fish. Since then he has made Several large hauls in this manner. i 2 Foreclosure Against the Union Pacific Immediately upon the defeat in the house of representatives of the bill providing for the funding of the debt of the Pacific railroads, the Presi- dent directed foreclosure proéeedings against the Union Pacific and Kansas Pacific roads.

From the New Orleans Times-Demo crat: “You may talk to me about the | stolid, stupid Chinee,” said an accident- insurance agent, “but I know better. The other day I insured Hop Lee's life for $1,000. A few days afterward a weak-looking ‘Chink’ called at my office and asked to see me. ‘Well?’ said I. ‘Me wantee flive hundle dollar,’ said he. ‘What for?’ I demanded. ‘Hop Lee,’ responded my caller. ‘He send me. Got thousand for dead. Half dead, wantee half money—flive hundle dollar.’ Say, I didn’t do a thing to that Chinaman.” Mr. Asbury Peppers. “I. observe,” said the boarder who likes to talk about actor folks, “that Andre Theuriet, the novelist, presented Sarah Bernhardt a sprig of wild thyme on the occasion of her celebration.” “I wonder,” said Asbury Peppers, looking thoughtfully at his plate, “I wonder if it was the first wild time Sarah ever saw?’—Cincinnati En- quirer. Not at Home. “Why, Emily, your aunt has been dead only a tew days and you are wearing a light dress!” “But you surely don’t expect me to wear mourning at home, do you flegende Blaetter. | Strange Timidity In Horses, | Young horses can be led up to a sack | lying on the ground and induced to pass it by letting them smell it and find out that it really is a sack, and not the Protean thing, whatever it:may be, which illusion conjures up for ; them. Once the writer saw a very quick | and pretty instance of experiment by | touch made by a frightened pony. It was being driven as a leader in a pony tandem, and stopped short in front of | where the rails of a steam tramway crossed the roai the road. It first smelled the near rail, and then quickly gave it two taps with its hoof. After this is was satistied and crossed the line. On the other hand, a donkey al- wiys tries to jump the shadows of tree trunks on the road, though a similar experience of touch would have shown were as unreal as the tram rail was unsubstantial. Lastly, no horse which has once knocked its head against the top of a stable doorway seems quite able to get rid of the illusion that there sits up in the top of ali doorways an invisible something which will hit again next time he goes through. Hence, the trou- blesome and sometimes incurable hab- it of horses “jibbing” when taken out | of the stable. | This is an obvious instance of the disadvantage at which most animals stand in regard to means of physical experiments. The horse, for instance, needs feel only the lintel to find out that it is fixed and does not move, and is not alive and waiting to hit him. But except his lips, which are sensi- tive, he has no member with which he can make the experiment. Except the elephant and the monkey, most of the “higher” animals suffer from this lack of the means of experiment. The won- der is, not that they suffer from illu- sions, but that they make so few mis- takes.—London Spectator. Over-Decorated Rooms, Two rooms lately seen have im- pressed upon me most forcibly the ne- cessity of having some plain surface in every room as a rest for the eye, ‘ and consequently the mind. One of these rooms was lauded as a thing of beauty because it existed in the house of a millionaire, and much money had been expended upon it. The other room was in the house of a seamstress, | who had expended her hard-earned dollars in furnishing a little parlor with which she was much delighted. Both rooms were ugly and tiresome because of the figured surfaces that covered floor, window and furniture, and the hanging. The patterns were Jarge and showy in the Eastern rug, the rich walls were covered with a figured silk, and the chairs had velvet roses growing in a satin background In a more satisfactory room done by a woman decorator, I find the floor, which has a plain hardwood border, covered by a large rug with a plain center and a figured border. A table cover that is also plain with the ex- ception of a scroll border is of a lus- trous short napped velvet. The walls are covered with painted tapestries, put the windows and doors that divide them here and there have plain hang- ings. The ceiling of the room is cross- ed by panels of wood in a dull and a | bright finish—New York Post ‘ ° -. : (First publication March 20. publicution March 2%. ee Bs — Sale.
