AN EXPENSIVE LIGHT.
What It Cost an Inveterate Smoker to
Ignite Hia Cigar.
Inveterate Bmokersv acknowledge
that the habit is a most expensive one,
but it is seldom that a light for a cigar
costs a smoker a fortune, as in the
story told by the author of "Glances
Back Through Seventy Years." He
was an inveterate smoker, having con
tracted "a diseased habit of puffing
away at a cigar every moment he was
not eatintr or sleerjlne." - He smoked
only the very best brands, and in those
careless days spent, as he says, more
for cigars than it afterward cost him to
live.
"Well, one afternoon a day or two
before 'Palmer's Life' was publisnea, j.

Chelmsford, and then to dinner with

Wonderful Skill In Fashioning Genoa Into
' Carton Shapes. '
It is recorded of the Mexican lapidary
to whom was intrusted the fashioning1
of the exquisite weddin?-gif t of Cortez
to his wife in 1529 that be was a work
man "unusually gifted with a delicate
.sure touch, wonderful skill and unpar
alleled ingenuity." ..
The first of the five, famous emeralds
forming the ring1 was in the form of a
rose; the second, that of a horn; the
third was like unto a fish with eyes of
gold; the fourth was like a little bell,
with a fine pearl for the tongue.' On
the rim of this tiny bell was inscribed,
in Latin: "Blessed is he who created
thee." " The fifth emerald, the one of
greatest value, was fashioned like a lit
tle cup, with a foot of gold, and four
delicate gold chains were attached to
a large pearl as a button. 1 ne edge
of this cup was of gold, on which rwas
engraved, in Latin: ''Interna tos mu
lieruru non surrexit major" Among
those born of woman none greater has
arisen. '
It is recorded that for just one of
these precious gems the almost fabu
lous sum of forty thousand ducats was
offered, and declined by Cortez. .
The sole relic (that can be identified)
now in existence of the incredible
wealth of ancient Mexico is a gold gob
let with the sides rudely repousse,
with the representation of a human
head, upon one side in full face, on the
other in profile, and on the third the
back. This wonderful piece of ancient
handicraft seems to be of pure gold.
It was brought from Mexico and pur
chased at Cadiz by Edward Carl, of Ox
ford. It is stated that it was once the prop
erty of Montezuma.
This goblet stands four and a half
inches in height; its diameter of lip
measure 3 three and a Quarter inches.

How Nmvajos Produce Dye.
The Navajos produce the brilliant
red. of their blankets from bayeta, a
bright scarlet cloth made in eastern
cities and raveled by the Indians for
the yarn. Their gray is the natural
color of some of their sheep; so are
their white and' black. They produce
a deep yellow from the alder boiled in
water and afterward mixed -with im
pure native alum. A dull red is pro
duced' fiom alder bark. Black is also
obtained from the aromatic sumac,
yellow ochre and the gum of a species
of pine. ' The last dye is essentially an
ink. Most of these dyes are produced
by elaborate and laborious processes,
but the Kavajos also use dyed wools
made in eastern mills.

CHINESE PUNISHMENTS.
A Horrible Phase of Justice Among the I
Mongolians." .
In December, 1891, I was in Canton.
One afternoon I visited the principal
law court. Two prisoners in. chains
were introduced one an old man, too
infirm to walk, the other a youth, tol
erably vigorous, but abject and forlorn
in demeanor. The presiding mandarin
appeared, sat down and sipped hia tea.
while an official pattered out a long-
oration, presumably an indictment,
for the prisoners proceeded, as I un- i
Afrtcai'. to mead "not guilty." What
followed, savs a .writes in the Specta
tor, was this: The old man was held
nr. not held down while two stolid
Chinamen - flogged him with ' .long.
rtliant . canes above the knees. The
vouth was divested of his chains.
which were then piled up in front of
him: Upon these he was compelled to
kneel. While his feet, hands and pig
tail were all attached by a cord to
a post behind him and tightly secured.
The cries of the victims and the com
plete composure of the spectators were
alike discrustingf. I said as much to
my guide, whom I generally regarded
as an amiable being. His reply was:
"This very interesting. I never seen
this before," though I have no doubt
he had. The explanation of the dread
ful scene excuse there could be none
was that, by the law of China, no man
can be executed until he has confessed
his guilt. These two individuals had
been convicted beyond doubt of hein
ous crimes, but they refused to confess.
The alternative before them was exe
cution or death by torture, and appar
entlv thev preferred the latter. The
ceremony I witnessed was to be re
peated de die in diem until either life
or resolution gave way. How the end
came, of course, I never knew.
Two of Queen Victoria's Fads.
Queen Victoria's conservative fond
ness for the things she is used to is
shown in the fact that the little ivory
paper knife with which to this day she
cuts the pages of her new books was
in her possession when she was a little
princess. The cabins of the royal
yacht are still .brightened with the
same old-fashioned rosebud chintz
which her dead husband liked. . The
queen has a particular love for fresh
air and sits in' rooms so cold that" no
American woman could endure them.
A' fortnight ago she had her summer
garden tent taken out of its winter
quarters and sat in it in the garden for
two hours or more for several consecu
tive days, signing official documents.
