Leslie's Weekly. Th Franz Hals MuMum In Holland. Old Haarlem calls up the shadow of Frani Hals. The museum Is verily a sanctuary to bis memory. There the famous corporation pictures hang. One sees the members of the various guilds In the fullness of careless life, eatlnjr. drlnUIng and merrymaking. Here Hals Is seen at the height of bis power. The Fplcrdid cokr arid UlreeiT:e of v.orlt are n revelation. Every figure seems alive, and one is convinced they were all In the flesh once. This great mas ter with ouc bold stroke of hi Imnh made these men immortal. At elgVy years he still painted, uud his last pic ture hangs beside his uiasierpleces.

Pr, Mors of the English polar expe dition of 1875 and 1870, among other odd things, tells of the effect cf cold on a wax caudle which he burned. The temperature was 35 degrees below ::ero, ni;d the doctor must have been considerably discouraged when, upon looking at bis candle, he discovered that the flame had all It could do to keep warm. It wns so cold that the flame could not melt ull tho wax of the candle, but was forced to eat its way down the caudle, leaving a sort of skeleton of the candle standing. There wns beat enough, however, to melt oddly shaped boles In the thin walls of wax, and the result was a beautiful lacelike cylinder of white, with a tongue of yellow flame burning inside of it nnd sending out into the dark ness many streaks of light. 8i.g, of Cret.
