THE RAINBOW COLORS.
OMENS AND MONARCHS.
Where Thay Ar« Woven and How Th«y
Ar« Traixported.
•«« H aw Many You Can Distinguish
and What They Are.
In«id«nt« That Hava Attandad Cartain
English Coronation«.
How many colors are there in the
rainbow, or, what is the same thing,
how many can one make out in the
light that has come through a dia­
mond, a piece of cut glass or the
Leveled edge of a mirror? The
books, of course, say seven. But
how many people really do see three
different shades ot blue as distinct
on one side of the green as are the
red, orange and yellow on the oth­
er? By no meays everybody, we
may be sure, although, on the oth­
er hand, it is known that certain
sorts of ants, when they look at the
rainbow, see only the sky where we
see the red band, while, to make up
for it, they see next to the violet, on
the other side of the bow, one or
two colors invisible to us.
Now, if there~are rainbow colors
which men do not see at all, and if
some people make out only six col­
ors where others distinguish seven,
because they are blind to one of the
three shades of blue, one might
guess that there would be peoph
somewhere in the world who would
be able to find no more than five dif­
ferent colors or perhaps only four.
There really is reason for thinking
thaï this is the case. The early
Greeks had no word for blue, and
Gladstone always maintained that it
was because they could not see blue.
Moreover, it seems to be a generil
rule that where a language does not
have words for red, yellow, green
and blue the blue is always the orc
to be lacking, and travelers among
the savage tribes in the interior of
Borneo have reported them to be
blue bliqd.
There are scientists who hold th«i t
ages ago men could see in the rair.-
bow only red, orange, yellow and
green, and that gradually, as they
have progressed in other respe; ta,
they have added first ¿Veenish blue,
then indigo, only lately violet, anti
will by and by add others still. As

Omens should be regarded seri­
ously by monarchs if there is truth
in the stories of incidents that have
attended the coronations of certain
English kings. The wearing of
white, for example, on such an occa-
tion is said to have been particular­
ly fatal. Alone of all the British
sovereigns Charles I. was robed in
white at his coronation. The chron­
iclers say that this happened purely
by accident. When the ill fated
prince formally assumed the crown
in 1625. it chanced that all the pur-
Ele velvet at the time to be found in
ondon was not sufficient to supply
a robe, and there was no time to
send to Genoa or elsewhere for
more.
Long years before the coronation
of the second of the Stuart kings
misfortunes had been predicted for
a white king of England, and surely
no man’s life ever more fully bore
out such a prediction. White fol­
lowed the unlucky Charles even to
the grave. After the dethroned
king’s execution on that cold Jan­
uary day in 1649 as his body was
brought out from St. George’s hall
the snow began to fall, and before
the coffin ached the west end of
the royai
ipel the black velvet
pall was co.ered with purest white
from frozen flakes.
Unfortunate signs and portents
also attended the coronation of
James II. The wind was light, yet
the canopy which was held over the
king’s head by the Cinque Port
barons was found to be torn, and
the flag which was run up on the
tower at the momeut of coronation
was soon afterward seen hanging in
tatters.
The most portentous omen of all,
however, attended the coronation of
George III., in. whose reign Britain
sustained her greatest disaster—the
loss of the American colonies. It is
curious how this disaster was pre­
symbolized at the coronation. As
the king was moving across the ab­
bey floor wearing the crown the
great diamond fell out and was not
found again without a good deal of
trouble.—Scrap Book.
I The celebrated “Smyrna carpet”
■ not made in Smyrna. It is a pred­
ict of the vilayet of Aidin, of which
Btnyrna is the capital. The chief
blaces of manufacture are the vil-
pgeg of Uschak, Koala, Ghiardia,
Uakri, Melesaoa, Kirkagatsch, Axar
Ind Dcmirdji. The industry gives
imployment to thousands of needy
beople, especially women, who are
Obliged to do the work almost en­
tirely, while the men spend their
nine in the coffee houses drinking
Itrong coffee and smoking number­
less cigarettes, all in true oriental
lashion. Little girls are compelled
[0 take up the work early, at seven
>r ten years of age at the latest,
Ind they keep at it unceasingly un­
til they go to their graves.
I The market for the wools is held
kerv Thursday from dawn to sun-
iet in the bazaar of Uschak, which
s then filled with purchasers, who
lave arrived on buffaloes, camels,
ionkeys and other picturesque
leasts of burden. The spun wools
re not dyed by the weavers them-
Blves, but by special dyers.
I More than 3,000 female weavers
re employed at Uschak in the prep-
ration of carpets. The operators
re generally members of the same
kmily, but there are a number of
nils who earn about 6 to 7 cents
|er dav. The Ghiardis carpets are
tenerally smaller than those of Us-
pak. Very fine prayer carpets,
losely woven and of harmonious
Blors, are produced in imitation of
pc Persian carpets.
I The carpets are made into bales
II 280 pounds each and covered
nth goatskins. The caravans pass
ne night in the open country at the
■ot of some hill, the drivers under
Ints and the camels and their loads
I the open air. Very large carpets,
bo heavy to be packed, are folded
nd thrown across the backs of the
Kinels in the form of a covering,
[hen the carpets arrive in Smyrna
|;ey are spread out, beaten, broom-
H and repacked in bales weighing
DO to 600 pounds each for exporta-
jon.—Consular Report.
Seat« In ■ Train.
I “Whv do the seats on the right
■nd side of a car almost always
II up before those on the left?”
jq aired a man on board a local
jl-urban train just before it pulled
nt of the station the other even-
jg. “I’ve been taking this trip for
ie past three months now, and I’ve
bl iced the tendency to favor the
Ight side without finding out the
ba.on.” Two other men of the
jme party gave it up as a conun-
rum, though they admitted it as a
let. They asked the conductor
lien he came through. “Well,”
kid the old and experienced rail-
kader. “when people aren’t guided

ents, and their first thought is not

-Philadelphia Record.
Anxious to Oblige.
The manager of a telephone ex-
hange recently gave employment as
n operator to a young woman who_e
revious employment had been in a
epartment store. The girl seemed
o bright and willing ana possessed
uch a clear and distinct voice that
he manager resolved to give her a
rial.
The newcomer, who was all amia-
ility and willingneea, rapidly learn-
d her new duties, but one day an
icident occurred that betrayed her
artment store training.
n answer to a ring she had asked
weed v, “Number, please ?”
“Let me have 325,” said the pa-
ron.
"I am sorry that 325 is busy just
»w,” said the girl, "but I can Jet
bu have 323 or 326.”—New York
lerald.

Epitaph of Man Stung to Death.
Don’t Cry; Go Eat
“I don’t cry any more about any-
thing,” said the bachelor girl.
“When I get so sad I don’t know
what to do, I go out and get me
something to eat. A little fellow I
was very fond of once taught me
that. He asked me to take luncheon
with him to talk over a quarrel wc
were having. During the talking
over it I got to crying. I cried all
over my fish. He ordered me some
more fish and scolded me while they
were getting it ready.
“ ‘Never cry, Frances,’ he said,
‘as long as you’ve got a good lunch­
eon or dinner before you. It isn't
worth'while.’
<
“No. I never saw him again, but
whenever I want to cry I think of
him and get me something good to
eat instead.”—New York Press.
Knew What Would Happen.
A southern lawyer tells of a case
that came to him at the outset of h>s
career wherein his principal witness
was a darkey named Jackson, sup­
posed to have knowledge of certain
transactions not at all to the credit
of his employer, the defendant.
"Now, Jackson,” said the lawyer,
"I want you to understand the im­
portance of telling the truth when
you are put on the stand. You
know what will happen, don’t you,
if you don’t tell the truth?”
“Yassir,” was Jackson’s reply.
“In dat case I expects our side will
win de case.”—Kansas City Inde-
pendent.______________

HEADQUARTERS FOR
Use« For Kerosene.
Kerosene oil is a great help to
loosen dirt, used in various ways. A
few drops on a rag will clean a wash
basin much more easily than soap.
It is also good for cleaning an iron
sink. If the children’s hands are
stuck up with balsam or wagon
grease, try rubbing them with a rag
wet in kerosene before applying
soap and water. If they get wagon
grease on their clothes, a little soap
and kerosene will take it out. To
clean dirty clothes, such as coarse
towels, take a tablespoonful of kero­
sene and a small piece of soap. Boil
these together with a quart of water
till it makes an emulsion. Put this
in your boiler with enough cold wa­
ter to cover your clothes and let it
come to a boil, stirring the clothes
occasionally. This saves a lot of
hard rubbing. It is also very good
to soften children’s shoes which
have become hard by being soaked
with water.—Suburban Life.
Among the many curious inscrip­
tions that are to be found on the
tombstones that mark the last rest­
ing place of some of the early pio­
neers of the town of Manchester one
of the most curious is in what is
known as the old Greenhouse ceme­
tery on a tombstone erected in 1814
to the memory of Timothy Ryan.
On May 12, 1814, he wa9 attacked
by his bees and stung to death. T’ e
following epitaph appears on his
tombstone:
A thousand ways cut short our days.
None Is exempt from death.
A honeybee by stinging me
Did stop my mortal breath.
This grave contains the last remains
Of my frail house of clay;
My soul Is gone, not to return.
