Albeit tho fellow's "line luwo never been east In pleasant places, very early In her existence does her round of drudgery begin, for while still n tiny child alio Is allotted a varie ty of tasks. In the clover season nno sees peasant baby girls posted ns senti nels over the horses and onttlo tethered tu tho vividly green berseem fields; mero children, placed In authority nenr a harshly creaking water wheel, fol low with toddling steps tho wiry llttlo donkey or gaunt, ugly buffalo harness cd to a wooden prop which Is attached to tho cogged wheel of the nakee,veb.

At times, too. they are sent to forngo for rare windfalls of firewood (rare, be cause In the delta wood of any wrt Is H-nnv), which, If they tlnd, they carry homeward across the fields on their heads, the strings of liends nnd glass bracelets on their fat little necks nud arms glistening In the bright sunshine; while tboso who dwell In woodless provinces are employed to collect ma nure, which, mixed with chopped straw, s pounded Into round cukes and when dried In the sun forms the staple native fuel called "gelleh."

She never loses her balance, having made n practice from early childhood of cnrrylng nil burdens on her head nud having thus nequlrcd a naturally upright carriage and sttitiicHouc gait. A CUP OF TEA. - Huylng n cup of tea mny be a trag edy or a comedy. Much depends on the sex of tho buyer. This Is tho way a man buys It, says a writer In tho Loudon .Sketch. Ho slides sheepishly Into tho shop, takes thu sent In tlm draft of tho door that everylwdy else bus avoided, and says to tho waitress with a dlllldcut miiIIu: "Oh, would you bring mo a cup of ten?" Tho wnltress, who returns the smllo or does not return It, according to tho rule of tho establishment In regnrd to tipping, brings him his ten, slams It down, scribbles out n check and sails away. Tho man tastes the tea, Audi thnt It Is bitter from long brewing, slips out of his sent, pays tho bill uud hurries nwny from tho shop. ' Now let us sec how n woinnn buys a cup of ten. .Sho marches Into tho shop with a llttlo boy on one sldo of her nnd n llt tlo girl on tho other. "I wnnt n tablo for three," sho says, In tho manner of ono about to order a dinner nt ten guineas a head. "Yes, madam," replies tho meek at tendant, "Will you kindly step tills wny." "Mummy," says tho llttlo boy, when at Inst tho party Is seated nnd tho at tendant Is waiting to tako the two penny order, "mummy, why has that lady got a turned-upj nose?" "Want a scouo," complalus the little girl. "A pot of tea for one," orders "mum my," "and would you mind bringing an extra cup, so that my little girl can have soiuo milk?" "Gnu tea and ono milk?" asks the at tendant. "No, thank you. I thought I gave my order ipilto distinctly. I wnnt a xit of tea for otio nnd an extra cup. That's all." "Yes, minium," says tho meek at tendant, nud drags herself nwny with tho tlrm Intention of becoming an ac tress, let the stage be vluit It may, "Just one moment," says "mummy," when tho tea U brought. "I should like to uuiko sure that this Is not too strong. Yes, It Is much too strong. Will you let mo have a pitcher of hot water, pleaso? And I don't think you havo brought quite enough milk." Half mi hour Inter she marches proudly from the shop, having paid exactly the same sum for these privi leges as tho wretched man who could not swallow a mouthful, and who sat lu a draft. ,. (Irniit'a Juke. Secretary Taft, lu discussing a cer tain hoax, snld: "It reminds me of tho story about Sir lllchiird On en, the fumous KnglUh scientist. A footman canio to Pem broke lodge, Sir ltlchard's residence, ouo morning, with a largo bone wrap vd lu a cloth, and with a note from his master, Lord John Itussell, asking If Sir ltlchard would pleaso bay what animal the bono belonged to, "It required but a glance from tho scientist to convince hliu that the bono was nothing but n ham bono from an ordlunry pig. He sent n message back to thnt effect, and, meeting Lord John tho next day, said: " 'Why on earth Old you send mo a pig's ham bono yesterday?' '"I'll tell you,' said the other. 'Gen eral Grant, you know, Is a great Joker. Ho made me a present of what pur ported to be that rare delicacy, a grizz ly bear's ham, but, ns I had my doubts, 1 sent you the bone.' " Out nl l.nt. "Why do they call these dentists' of fices dental parlors?" usked Smith of his friend. "Why, parlor Is an old-fashioned name from drawing-room." All that glitters can't be measured by Vw golden rule. I The Polite nnrmnn. In the cities of Hurina, where the na tives have been long In contnet with Furopeans, says the author of "Burma, Painted nnd Described." they have lost pome of their traditional politeness; but lu the country districts old-school cour tesy Is still the custom. Au English gentleman who had bought n new pony was trying him out on a llurninn road, when the animal bolted, and ran at top speed down a narrow road. In the wny abend was n natlvo cart, In which was a family party out boll duy-mnklng. The pony dnshed Into the back of the cart, threw his rider Into tho midst of the merrymnkers, and severely Injured the Htirmnn who was driving. Before tho Englishman had an oppor tunity to explain his unexpected on slaught the Hurman picked himself up nnd bowed low. "My lord, my lord," he said, apolo getically, "the cart should not have beeu there." Kaand lie Was m Cannibal. A new arrival In tho town entered a restaurant and ordered his dinner. Ho hud Just been served when a large, ro tund person entered and seated himself nt tho snnio table, and finally reached over and helped himself to his neigh bor's breud ; seeing that the other man's boiled potato had not been touched he took thnt and ate It without removing the sjIii, A piece of chicken followed. Hy this time tho waiter reappeared and handed the bill of fare to tho newcomer. "Itonst beef; roast pork. Which shall I take?" said he. "Well, I guess you can bring mo roast beef, a double or der." "Thank heaven," said the man oppo site. "Eh? Whnt did you say, sir?" "I said 'Thank Heaven !' I was afraid you were a cannibal." Pittsburg Press. Iteelproelljr. "I declare," complained Mrs. Duzzlt, "I shall certainly hnvo to punish tho children I" says a writer In Life. "What hnvo they been up to now?" Inquired her husband. "They have simply upset my sewing room. Nothing Is whero It should be. Needles, spools of thread, seWsors, darn ing bulls, everything I hnvo bus been poked nway Into the most unexpected corners. It Is perfectly exnsporutlng." Mr. Duv..lt surveyed his wife with a benignant nlr. "That wasn't the children, dear," he snld. "I did that." "What possessed you?" "It was kindness of heart.
