I took the book down to the brook, sez I, "I'D

THROUGH FERN AND BUSH.
2raphte Description of Some of the Qaeei
Sights In Australia.
Once my friend suddenly drew rein,
writes William Sharp in Harper1 8 Mag a
.zine in an article on the magic of the
bush, and motioned me to do likewise.
. Tor a few seconds I heard nothing,
then sharp and clear through the
ilence rang the crack of a long whip,
nd I expected to see some stock-rider,
or perhaps some strayed packman,
jssue from the scrub. With a quick
"Hush!" my companion whispered to
xne that what I had heard was only the
"whip bird," and that what he wanted
me to see was a lyre bird, whose native
note he had heard a moment before
-close at hand. Very shortly a sonie
"what low but sweet burst of melody,
though within a limited compass, came
fromTa glade to the left, the greatei
' part of which was shrouded from sight
by intricate fern-tree growths; with
Tapid transitions the song thereaftei
rose and fell, now imitating the joyous
freedom of the magpie, now the laugh
ing gurgle of the jackass, now othet
jforest denizens. Again silence, and
-then right in the midst of the fern
.glade I saw for the first time a bird 1
had often heard of aud which I was
anxious to see. The lyre bird, oi
mountain pheasant (Menura superba).
is'extremely shy and though by no means
rare in certain districts is thus com
paratively seldom seen. In size il
very closely resembles the common
pheasant, aud is of an auburn-brown
color; but it would not be a specially
attractive bird were it not for the large
and delicately graceful tail-feathers,
-which, when fully erected, exactly re
omlilc the inslrtinieut after which the
.bird. is -vailed. Like the shark, and
jjerhsips tin; cuckoo, the mountain
pheasant is generally accompanied by
a satellite, in this iustance the lattei
ibeing a small, jerky little bird, popu
larly called the "pheasant's mother"
but none such was visible to our eyes
on this occasion. The whip bird, oi
coach-whip bird, referred to is gener
ally heard in the serub proper and ha;
received its name from its habit of elid
ing its loud cry or note with an abrupt
crack like that produced by the lou"
lash of a stock-whip.
As we rode ou the sua grew highei
and higher iu the heavens, and a grad
ual sileuce crept through the forest with
the ripening noon. The scrub whict
liad lately been so full of life appeared
to be deserted by its noisy d-enizeus
and only at rare intervals the tuuiUec
chuckle of the jackass broke the still,
ness. Ere long wecame suddenly up
on a rare sight iu an Australian forest,
and a few yards farther brought w
within the charmed circle, thau which
I have seen nothing of the kind more
lovely. Immediately before us lay a
quiet pool, of an intense azure hue at
it center, but with wide margins re
flecting the green fern-tree fronds and
all else flowery and beautiful that
grew near; fringing its edges with
great quantities of a beautiful species
of iris; beyond, and forming a circular
wall, var3-ingfroin five to eight or nine
feet in height, were thick magnolias in
magnificent full bloom and whose de
licious fragrance made the air seem
heavy with sweetness; over these waved
the long, delicate green fonds of the
tree-ferns and shimmering accacia
sprays, while beyond a glimpse was
caught of the summits of the lofty
blue-gums darkly silhouetted against the
purple-blue sky. Not a breath of wind
stirred leaf or flower; not a sound was
heard save a faiut, almost inaudible,
hum at regular intervals, or an
occasional subdued rustle as of a
leaf falling to the ground or a bird
drowsily shifting its position in the
xlense green shade. Hark! what
was that? Like a far-away village bell
a soft sound rings or rather swells
mellifluously through the still air, and
now another a silvery tolling, ex--qnisitely
impressive and "even solemn
iu these hushed and lonely solitudes.
Wonderfully and at first startlingly
trange as the illusion was I had al
ready fathomed that I was listening to
the bell of nO forest sanctuary, when
my fniend whispered to me: "The bell
bird!" The solemnity of the noon
seemed to deepen, and the promised
vigor of the day to subside into a
luxurious dream. Having dismounted
and tied our horses to a tree, we be
took ourselves to an hour or two's mid
day rest, and as we lay below a huge,
spreading tree-fern lazily smoking, with
the scent of the magnolias in the warm
air, and the dreamy- call of the distant
bell bird rising and falling at solemn
intervals, we became drowsy, and
doubtless each indulged in a good deal
of unspoken sentiment. If so, it cer
tainly did us no harm. From our resting-place
on a slope above the pool we
could just see the blue line of a distant
range rolling away northward, and be
hind it some outlying summit of the
misty Bogongs
. Morning and evening the Australian
forest is awake; at noon it is asleep.
No greater contrast can be imagined
. than between the morning hours and
those of midday in mid-summer. In
the .former the very flowers seem tc
possess a a active existence Myriad?
or scn, larger and more brilliant than
those we are accustomed to in oui
northern latitudes, load the air with
the sweetest scents. At sundown
again there is a revival of life, but not
of so cheerful a disposition. The
tree-locusts in myriads shriek their
deafening "p-r-r-r-r-r"; drowsy opos
sums snarl in the gum-holes, and flocks
of cockatoos scream as some great gray
kanganoo bounds past them like a be
lated ghost. If there is marshy ground
near, the deep boom of the bittern, the
wail of the curlew, the harsh cry of the
crane, mingling possibly with the
strident screams of a returning flock oi
black swans, will add to the concert.
In a moment of silence one may be
startled by the mocking laughter ot
the jackass or the prolonged howl oi
the wandering dingo. The dead oi
night is not so still as the universal
quiet of midsummer noon.
A Japanese Romance.
In an account which be gives of a
visit to Count Ito. one of the most
famous of modern Japanese statesmen,
Sir Edwin Arnold relates the following
incident in the history of the count:
At the time of the fierce strife which
arose between the partisans of the Sho
gun and the 103'alists, who were for re
establishing the ancient regime, Count
Ito was paying his addresses to the
lady who is'now his wife, and while he
was a fugitive from his enemies there
came a time when they had tracked
him to her house and had chosen a band
of soshis to assassinate him. The
noise of their dogs and the rattling of
their scabbards was heard, and the
count, trapped like a royal stag in his
mountain pleasaunce, drew his Bizen
blade and prepared to die as a Japan
ese lord should, amid a circle of dead
foes. But while he murmured "Savon
ara!" and knitted his fingers round the
sharkskin hilt of his sword, the brave
lady whispered: "Do not die; there is
a hope still," upon which she removed
the hibatcb or firebox, over which they
were sitting, and lifting up the matting
and the plauks beneath, induced her
lover to conceal himself in the hollow
space which exists under the floor of
Japanese houses. The murderers
broke into the room a ferocious band
just as the firebox had been replaced
and the countess had assumed a
position of nonchalance. They de
manded their victim, and when she
protested against their intrusion, and
bade them search if they wanted Ito,
the wretches dragged her about the
apartment by her long, beautiful black
hair now touched with silver and
grievously maltreated her, but could
not shake her resolute fidelity. Thanks
to this Count Ito, the hero of many an
other strange adventure, escaped from
the chief peril of his career, and has
lived to give his country a new con
stitution and to be one of the foremost
and best reputed statesmen of modern
Japan.
How One Man Proposed.
I was very much amused at the
article published a few days ago on
"How Girls Are Proposed To." I
think the way I proposed was just as
unique, and the'time and methods a
little more novel than the methods the
fellows in that article adopted..
It was a case of love at first sight,
but the girl didn't know how I felt,
neither was 1 sure that she cared a
continental for me. She was a modest,
retiring, bashful little thing, and while
I wanted to tell her how much I loved
her I was afraid to. One Sunday
night, the fourth time I had called, I
made up my mind fully that I wanted
her. But she was so shy I thought it
would frighten her away if I spoke.
About 10 o'clock I proposed a game of
cards, aud, in a joke, suggested that
we play for a wager, aud that she put
up herself against me. She modestly
consented.
I thought I was going to lose, and I
knew if I did it was a last chance, even
if it was a joke. Well, I won, and
told her with a laugh that she be
longed to me. After sitting and look
ing at each other a few moments I took
her hand and said she must always pay
her losses, and that the band I held
was mine. She looked at me with a
smile and said quietly:
"Well, if you want it you can have
it."
I won that girl by a game of cards
on Sunday, but we neither have re
gretted the violating of the fourth com
mandment. Perhaps my method may
help some other bashful couple.

Oriental Ideas of Punctuality.
The indifference to time characteris
tic of orientals was illustrated in many
amusing ways when first a railway
was opened in a new part of India.
Nothing but bitter experience could
convince the natives that a train, un- '
like the bullock wagons they had been
accustomed to, would not wait an in-,
definite time to pick up passeugers.
The deputy commissioner had on one j
occasion, shortly after the opening of a '
new line, sent his servant with his of
licial letter-bag to meet the train, and
was much annoyed at seeing the man
presently returning with it, having ,
missed the train. I
"You had not a half a mile to go, I
and you know that the train left the
station at 3 o'clock."
"Yes, truly, your majesty," replied
the man in an aggrieved tone, "but
when it strikes three the train goes
from there."
That was sharp practice of which he
had no previous experience, and it was j
eviueni mat ne mu not ininK it very
creditable to the company. Temple
Bar.
The North Pole.
Norwegian navigators still cling; to
the idea of discovering the North Pole.
Their hopes are based upon the fact
that various articles from the Pacific
are occasionally found stranded on the
coast of Greenland, having been car
ried there by some current. A notable
instance of this is the finding there of a
pair of oilskin trousers, marked with '
the name of one of the crew of a vessel
that had been wrecked on the Pacific
side of Behriug'8 Straits. It is argued
that where a pair of trousers can go a
properly-constructed vessel ought to be
able to follow by virtue of a supposed
current between the two oceans via the I
MAKING PLAYING CARDS.
Processes by Which the King, Queen, Jack
and the Rest ot Them Are Produced.
It is surprising the great number ol
playing cards that are used. One
factory alone, in Ohio, turns out an
average of 30,000 packs a day. The
owner attributes the present great de
mand principally to the progressive
euchre craze, and says that the Amer
icans are the greatest peopje on the
globe for amusements at cards. A re
porter of the Cincinnati Times-Star,
who visited the establishment, was told
in answer to numerous queries about
the ways of manufacturing the cards:
"Much of the process is a secret with
us, but still I can tell and show you a
great deal. The bristol cardboard for
making the cards consists of two sheets
glued together by being passed between
two immense rollers. The cardboard
must then be dried, pressed, glazed and
prepared for further work. The card
board is prepared in sheets large
enough to contain a whole pack of play
ing cards."
"What's this?" asked the newspapei
man, as he saw a large revolving ma
chine turning out eudless or seeming
ly so rolls of white paper, with one
side printed the color of variously fig
ured calico.
"It's the process of printing the
paper which is to be pasted on the back
of cheap playing cards. It's printed
just as calico printing is done. All, oi
nearly all, cheap playing cards have a
calico-colored back. This lengthy strip
of calico-colored paper is subsequently
cut into sheets about three feet il)
length to correspond to the sheets ot
bristol cardboards."
"Are the various colors on card.
printed on the cardboard?"
"Sometimes. See this glazed face
on the sheets of cardboard? Well.it is
now ready for printing. The printing
is a tine art, too, as so many colors are
often put on at one impression. Aftei
being printed the sheets are dried and
then sent to the cutting machines to be
cut into strips as wide as a playing
card is long. These strips are care
fully assorted, measured aud then
passed to the 'punchers,' or machines
which 'punch' or cut out the separate
cards, every one of which must be
punched separately, great care being
necessary in order that the punching if
done accurately, otherwise-the margin
of the cards will not be true and they
will present an ugly appearance. The
punching is a wonderful process and
the machines which do it are almost
human-like in their motion aud dexter
ity." Ancient Feet-
A noticeable thing about the statues
found in our museums of art, supposed
to represent the perfect figures of
ancient men and women, is the ap
parently disproportionate size of their
feet. We moderns are apt to pro
nounce them too large, particularly
those of the females. It will be found,
however, that for symmetrical perfec
tion these feet could not be better. A
Greek sculptor would not think of such
a thing as putting a nine-inch foot on a
five-and-one-half-foot woman. Their
types for these classical marble figures
were taken from the most perfect
forms of living persons. Unquestiona
bly the humau foot, as represented by
these old sculptors, was larger than
the modern one, and, in fact, the prim
itive foot of all people of whom we
have any record, either in printing or
statuary, was considerably larger than
the restricted foot of modern times.
The masculine foot, forming an ap
proximate average of four different
countries, was about twelve inches
long. This would require at least a
No. 12 or 13 1-2 shoe to cover it com
fortably. The average masculine foot
to-day is easily fitted with a No. 8 1-2
shoe, and is therefore not above ten
aud seven-sixteenths of an inch. Now.
by the old sculptural rule of propor
tion, a man five feet nine inches iu
height should have a foot eleven and
one-half inches long, or one-sixth his
height. It was of no great conse
quence what size sandal he wore, but
he would have required a modern shoe
of at least a No. 11 for real comfort.
For women, allowing for the difference
in the relative size of the two sexes,
which was about the same then as
now, a woman of five feet three inches
in height would have had a foot ten
inches long, requiring a modern' shoe
it ought to be spoken only in a whis
perNo. 6 as the most comfortable for
that foot or a No. 6 1-2 as the limit of
torture. The reason for the difference
between the old classical foot and the
modern one is obvious. Restriction
is what has done it.
Beautiful Ecuador Women.
The females of Ecuador are proverb
ial for beauty, those among the aristo
cracy being said to have the fairest
complexions of any in South America,
while all possess large, soft aud ex
pressive dark eyes, the blackest and
most abundant hair, the whitest teeth,
well-rounded figures and small hands
and feet. Like all women in the
tropics, they mature early and fade
quickly, but perhaps their average span
of forty years includes more heart
happiness than comes to women ol
colder climes in three score years and
ten, for these are harassed by no
"carking cares" or high ambitions.
Indolence, religious superstition, and
faithfulness unto death are their most
prominent characteristics;their passion
ate natures are completely satisfied in
the love of home, husband and children,
and for them the whole universe lies
within the limits of vision. What
higher praise could be bestowed upon
the women of any country? To be
sure, they are notoriously "untidy in
dress and habits, but the manta ot
paneulon, like the mantle of charity,
covers a multitude of sius. As the
puncho, for men, is the universal and
most useful garment for the middle and
lower classes, answering for a coat by
day, a coverlid by night, an umbrella
when it rains and a basket when there
is anything to carry, the female manta
is worn by all classes and is equally in
dispensable, sinces it hides unkempt
hair and all defects of toilet. Ecuador
