PLAYING CARDS. An lntrting 8tudy From Hlatorl and Pictorial Viewpoint. Quite apart from their use lo vari ous games, play log cards are an Inter rstlus study from historic and pic torial points of view. Take first their numerical arrangement C2 cards, 305 ils or dots and 13 tricks, representing the weeks and days in the year and the lunar months. There are four suits, representing four classes of people aa they were di vided at the time the pack of cards we now use was devised by the French. The "spades" stood for plkemen or sol diers, the clubs for clover, typifying farmers; the diamonds for building tiles, representing artisans, and the hearts for cholrmen or ecclesiastics. The "kings" and "queens" at that time were more or less correct likeness of certain royal and noble personages. Even in our modern packs It is said that one of the queens is a convention alized portrait of Elizabeth of York, who was engaged to the dauphin of France. The "knaves" were then the king's Jesters, and even these cards may be portraits. All the court cards, in fact, retain their sixteenth century charac teristics. Cards are among the few things that have not changed with the centuries. Brooklyn Eagle. NAPOLEON'S DESTINY. 8ummed Up In Four Motto Bona part Larnd at School. In 17S4 Bonaparte, then fifteen years old, arrived at the military school of Paris from Brlenne, being one of four under the conduct of a minim priest. He mounted 173 steps, carrying his small valise, and reached. In the attic, the barrack chamber he was to occupy. This chamber had two beds and a small window opening on the great yard of the school. The young prede cessors of Bonaparte had bescrawled the whitewashed walls with charcoal, and the newcomer could read In this little cell these four Inscriptions, which we ourselves read there years ago: An epaulet Is very long to win. De Montgivray. The nnest day in life is that of a bat tle. Vlcomte de Tlntenlac Life is but a prolonged He. Le Che valier Adolphe Delmas. The end of all is six feet of earth. Le Comte de la Vlllette. With the trifling substitution of the word "empire" for "epaulet" these four sentences contain the whole destiny of Bonaparte and formed a kind of "Mene, Tekel. Upharsin," written In advance upon that wall. Victor Hugo.
