The little Japanese acrobat, in his robe ‘of black embroidered with gold dragons, walked slowly up the slanting wire cable to the very rouf of the circus tent. There he paused a moment, and then—swish, swish, swish—he slid smoth- Iy and graeefully down the steep wire 10 | the ground. Elevating his voice above the loud applause, an old circus man said: “That sliding trick has never been learned by a European. It's a trick that the Japs alone do.

Cigars have on more than one occa- | sion been the indirect means of saving | men’s lives. Shortly after he had started | on a long railway Jjourney the famous | tenor, Signor Marlo, who was an inveter- | ate smoker, was considerably astonished I by the ‘sole fellow-traveler in his com- | partment producing a truculent looking I'knife, with the threat that he intended to cut his throat. The great singer at once | percetvea that the man was mad, and with wonderful presence of mind inquirel | whether he wouldn't like to try a cigar before carrying out his intention. After a moment's hesitation the other replied in,the affirmative. He smoked the cigar, he finished a second, and was in the mid- dle of a third when Mario reached his destination and delivered his uncomforta- ble companion into safe keeping .- | The late King Humbert, who in his | youth was a devotee of tobacco, chanced | one day, while driving through the streets | of Rome, to drop by accident a cigar which he had just lighted. Beyond notic- ing that this prize was snatched up by a singularly dejected looking individual, the Prince of Naples, as he was then, thought no more of the matter. CHANGE WORKED BY CIGAR. Some months later, howeyer, the inci- dent was recalled to his memory by the receipt of the letter from an anonymous correspondent, who declared that, being | almost penniless, he had formed the reso- | lution of committing suicide when chance | threw in his way the cigar that the { Prince had let fall, which, by calming his { nerves, had enabled him to take a more hopeful view of the future, with the re- sult that he faced and ultimately over- came his difficulties. Walking one in one of the public gardens of Paris, M. Guizot, the celebrat- ed French historian, noticed that he was | being dogged by a shabbily dressed man, who at last, on his sitting down, took a place beside him and proceeded to eye him with an expression so flerce as to have alarmed a more timid man. The historian, however, was in no wise disconcerted; he nonchafantly lit a cigar, whereupon the other rose and, muttering that he was mistaken, as the scoundrel he meant to kill never smoked, slouched off. Three days later this fellow was ar- rested for a murderous assault on a pub- lic functionary against whom he harbored a grudge, and for whom he had at first mistaken M. Guizot. HOW BISMARCK USED CIGAR. To his béing a smoker Bismarck once | owed his escape from an unpleasant dem- onstration. When the German troops entered Paris the great Chancellor noticed | a knot of French workmen regarding him | with - sinister glances, and evidently dis- posed to accord him a hostile reception. Without a moment's hesitation he rode up to the group and, taking a cigar from his case, asked their leader if he could oblige him with a light. This genial act at once disarmbed their unfriendly inten- tions, and he was allowed to pass on in respectful. stlence. | Once when performing in a small town in the United States Edwin Booth heard that a certain section of the audience in- tended, at the instance of a rival actor, | to give him an unfriendly reception. - He I to the occasion, however, and just | the curtaln went up sent by an ant a couple of boxes of excellent | cigars to these hireling malcontents, with | | the hope that, if his acting should not | give satisfaction, his cigars would. This policy succeeded, and his sentry was greeted with «uproarious applause. A plot was hatched against the life of Mazzini which came to the knowledge of the Italian patriot. He took his precau- | tions accordingly and procured a box of | | the finest cigars, armed with which he | awaited the coming of his would-be assassins, who in due course arrived in a body at his house and, on some pretense, begged an audience. At once admitted, they were courteously received by Mazzini, who asked them to help themselves to cigars. Taken aback by this presence of mind the conspirators shamefacedly did so, and under the in- fluence of the soothing weed grew less de- termined. Presently Mazzini pressed them to take another. “Gentiemen,” he said, | “take another cigar. But why do you not | proceed to business? I believe you came { here to kill me.” These words completeiy | disarmed the men; they muttered some words of lame regret and slunk away.— Montreal Star.

THE STORY OF THE FREE OIL PAINTING “Dictating a Letter” KICK LIKE A BAY STEER IF YOU DONT GET ONB With Next Sunday’s Call “Dictating a Letter” is in Mr, Roseland’s happiest and most graceful style. It is rich in sentiment, in color and in delineation of character. The story it tells is of a bright, young, healthy girl entering the lowly cabin of a pair of venerable darkies and sitting down to write for them a letter to a dear and distant child. The realism of the painting is quite ap- parent, ard the striking contrast of the types—the aged colored people and a fair young woman with rosy complexion and fetching summer frock—is delightfully pleasing. It is a charming illustration of genre painting. As the old “mammy” leans on the table dictating to the pretty amanuensis the news she wants to send in the letter, one can almost imagine the words she utters, so interested and expressive is the fur- rowed black face. Then the venerable colored father leaning between the ill-assorted pair suggests eager participation in the confidential goings on. Ome can also imagine the vast difference between the oral and the written words, and must have, too, a personal fondness for the kindly maiden, whe so willingly writes down the untutored expressions of her darky friends. “Dictating a Letter” is a very happy effort from every point of view, and the artist has added largely to his reputation by this particular canvas. years ago. He is an American painter, born in Brooklyn less than forty He has devoted himself to the delineation of negro charac- ters especially, and was the winner of the celebrated Hellargotten prize at the 1lational Academy of Design three years ago with his picture en- titled “An Interesting Letter.” 5 Tell Your Neighbor to Subscribe if He Wants a Free Art Gallery.
