Be Wa Jealous or the Talent, of Ilia Subject. After Emin Pasha had learned of the fall of Khartoum and the conquest of the Soudan by the Muhdists, he gave up hope of being able to defend the equa torial province with the force at his disposal, says Youth's Companion. To rescue the Egyptians who gar risoned the various posts was now his first duty, and he bt'ffun to make his plans for a march to the sea. The only practical route appeared to lie through the kingdom of Unyoro, which bounds the province ou the southeast. Ac cordingly he sent his medical oilicer, Vita Hassan, with valuable presentsof ivory and other things, to the king of the country to obtain permission for the passage of the troops through his dominions. This African monarch, who was named Kabarega, though in outward appearance a mere savage, showed that he possessed some of the qualities of a successful ruler. Among the presents sent him was a little box which had come from Mam bettu, a country in the extreme west ern part of the province. When the knig noticed that it was made of a single piece of wooil he was very much pleased with it and asked the envoy whether he thought that his subjects were capable of imitating such work. "I answered him," savs Vita Hassan. "that the Wanyoro had no experience in such work and that it would be very difllcult for them to do it as well as the Mambettn, who were skilled in fashioning out of a block of wood the most varied and ditlicult objects. In a really artistic manner they are able to make dishes, plates, bowls, stands and even Turkish jugs with their long and crooked necks. "The Wanyoro, on the other hand, understand the preparation of skins. This is their speciality, as wood-work ing is that of the MambetUi. My words aroused the jealousy of Kabarega, and he counted on his lingers to five, and then said: 'On this day,' pointing to the fifth linger, 'come here again, and I will show you whetheror not my peo ple can make a box like this.' "On the fifth day the Wanyoro had succeeded, under the most frightful threats of the king, in manufacturing a similar box of perhaps even better construction. Full of pride, Kabarega showed it to me with the words: 'What use is it being a king if I cannot get my subjects to make everything which I wish'" "'Hut what if you desire something which is beyond their ability or their knowledge?' " 'There is no need of that, for I have not lost my head; I shall never bid them fetch me the moon, but if it is a thing which is not beyond our power, I cannot permit that they should give up at the first difficulty.' "For a negro king this seemed to be ;ery reasonable, and I bowed my as sent." WAYS OF THt FAKIRS. Whura aud How I'ortuiiK.Telllug' Hharpa c.-t l,i Thlr Work. H is said t,y tin- ilotoctives of the central oil'ire, who oi'ciisionally have to deal with the furluiie-telliufr, hyp notic anil clairvoyant sharps, that these latter "-entry mahe their living1 by the skill with which they treat the curious maiden ladies of uncertain ac;e and the army of stout and middlc iied women who endeavor, by bleach in,' their hair and powdering1 their faces, to conceal from themselves and the world tlu fuct tliut thc uro frow infold. The fortune tellers, says the New York Sun, are men who appar ently realize that there is in this world a lai-frc number of foolish women of mature years, who do not object to paying three or live dollars for having their fortunes told by some of the re- markalile malsecrs who are doing such a lucrative business just now in this line. The fortune-telling sharps are usually men between thirty and forty years of age, of an owi HUc air aud more or less impressive ness of manner, and they fondle the hands of their visitors as tiiey read the lines after a fashion that would be ridiculous were it not lucrative. There is no real harm in nil of this, according to the detectives, except that once in awhile a particularly idle and foolish old woman permits one of these sharps to get the best of her so far as to ex tort sums of money, on one pretext or another, beyond the usual three dollar limit for consultation. Some times the pretext is an enhi of his business, his ,1, ment j c to : tniy a beautiful picture, or some other trinket of value to him, but as often as not the mail succeeds iu wheedling sums of money varying from five dollars to twenty-live dollars purely as a "loan." It is when the "loan" gets to be of unusual propor tions that the police are called in. They know the fortune tellers very well, and there is never any ditlicnlty in getting back the money, but the elderly, foolish woman in the case is usually in a state of tremendous men- tal perturbation while it is all go- ing on. Tiik duty of criticism is neither to depreciate nor diguify by partial representations.- X Y. Ledger. PI V I WHY OIL STILLS OCEAN WAVES. The Wind raises Alone the Oily Surface with Reduced Power. A great deal has been written about the influence of oil on waves at sea. and of the practically useful action of oil in many cases there is abundant testimony, but little has been heard of the reason for the results obtained, says the Chicago Tribune. Experi ments made in shallow, broken water on the coast, where the wind and tide conflicted, have shown that little or no advantage can lie traced from the use of oil under such conditions; that is to say, the wave motion being disturbed and under forces not wholly those of wind action, the oily film becomes broken up. In deep water, however, where the waves may be considered as wholly formed by the wind, their forms are more regular, and it is in such cir cumstances that the recorded exam ples show to the best effect. These ef fects suggest the real action of the oil. According to some theories the oil acts as it does when applied to bearings in machinery, and thus the wind glides more easily over the oiled surface than it does over the water surface. It diflicult to see, however, that the fric- tional resistance between air and oi should be loss than between air and water, as the oil is a less mobile fluid that the water. Again, when we con sider the surface tension of fluids, and can often observe their restraining ae tion on ascending air bubbles or small floating objects iu glasses of water, we might suppose that by the addition of the film of oil sufficient resistance was offered to the uprise of the upper part of the wave, and thus the tendency to oreaK would De restrained. The ac tion of the film of oil is one of separa tion. When we consider the tendency of air to become saturated with watery vapor due to evaporation and of water to retain air by absorption, we may readily conceive that the impact of air on a. watery surface will tend to cause a commingling at the surface of air and water which will thus offer sufficient resistance to the motion of the wind to throw the water and mixture in to an undulatory movement and, there fore, when this forward movement has exceeded the speed due to the periodic motion in the wave itself, the upper part in falling forward from the effects of the push of air from behind shows a foaming rush of broken water; that is, the air incorporated with the water and the water itself. Arguing on this basis there is no difficulty in accepting the theory that the film of oil spread over the surface of the water effect ually prevents the formation of broken water; as the air and water are kept separate the tendency to mutual ab sorption at the surface is checked and the wind passes along the oily surface with reduced power of wave making. CZAR PETER'S JOKES. A Great Monarch Who Was Decidedly Ilrutnl In Ilia Sense of Humor. At one of the grand dinners given by the Czar Peter, says the London Tele graph, a hugh pic was placed in the center ol tlie gennemen's table, out of which, when the carver broke the crust, a beautiful dwarf lady, in puris naturalibus, all except a head-dress, stopped out, proposed in a set speech and drank in a glass of wine the health of the company, and then retired to her snug retreat and was carried from the table. A man dwarf was substi tuted at the ladies' table. Did not Peter say he could reform his people, but not himself? A dinner party at the czar's must indeed have been a sight not conceivable out of Bedlam, and could only have been planned in the maddest brain on earth, if a manu script among the Sloan papers in the British museum is believable. Such practical jokes! such wild grotesque gamooimg! tne frolics of leviathan! the laughter of Titan, as frightful in his fun as in his fury! There was ac commodation at the czar's table for about one hundred, but the grim hu morist always issued invitations to twice or thrice that number, and left his guests to elbow, jostle and fight for chairs and places, and retain them against all coiners and claimants if they could. Not tinfrequently a free tight was extemporized and noses tapped, and even the sacred persons of ambassadors have been profanely touched and trifled with. The czar sat at the head of the table, a broad crrin on his face, rolling the spectacle like a sweet morsel under his tongue. The guests are so closely packed that feed ing room is not to be thought of, and ribs are often blackened and almost driven in by active and vigorous el bows, provoking fierce recriminations and quarrels. The kitchen is so near the dining-hall that there floats through the latter a fragrance of onions, garlic and train-oil, mellowed and tempered by the more delicious aroma of the roast. The more knowing and initiated guests wave away soups and such like edibles, and manifest a special appetite for hams, tongues and viands that cannot be tampered with, or made the vehicle of practical joking, lor as oir.cn as not it happens that a bunch of dead mice will be drawn out of the soup or discovered snugly im bedded iu a dish of green peas, and sometimes, when his guests have well partaken of certain pastries, the czar will courteously inquire if the cat, wolf, raven or other unclean animal proved a savory or delicious morsel, with what result let the imaginative guess. The approach to a regular Donnybrook was hastened on by liberal supplies of brandies, strong ales and wines so adroitly served out as to expedite the grand climacteric of drunkenness. Happy Turn of Fortune. In unexyiivti'd turns of the wheel of fortune, elevating; the unknown to places of power and dethroninff the mighty without warning, France leads the nations, not excepting Amer ica, where the grandson of the millionaire mav black boots for the grandson of the crossing-sweeper. The installation of Mme. Grevy in the Elysee is a happy instance. She was the daughter of a tanner, and earned her living in Paris as a bonnetmaker. When she married her whole fortune was less than f .",00; at her death she leaves something like a quarter of a million to her daughter. She did not invent an ancestry with her promotion, nor assume fine airs with her rich gowns. Her manners were characterized by simplicity, her ac counts were carefully audited to the smallest detail, and she set her face against court etiquette.

Dur ing tlie attacks, the peispiia'lou would stand tu drops on my face, and it was agony for me to make sufficient effort eveu to whis per. Tliey came suddenly, at any hour ol the day or night, lasting from thirty minutes to half a day, leaving as suddenly; but, for several days after, 1 was quite pros trated and sore. Sometimes the attacks were almost daily, then less frequent. After about four years of this suffering, I was taken down with bilious typhoid fever, and when I began to recover, I had the worst attack of my old trouble 1 ever experienced. At the first of the fever, my mother gave me Ayer'a Pills, my doctor recommending them as being better than anything he could prepare. 1 continued taking these Fills, and so great was the benefit derived that during nearly thirty years I have had but one attack of my former trouble, which yielded readily to the same remedy."
