It will lie dltticult to discover an old

persmith and the uuiker of brazen Im
ages for the temple of Osiris, which Is
embodied In Egyptian Inscriptions dat
ing from Hie reign of Melies, founder
of Memphis, wlm ruled over 7.0UU
years ago. According to ancient rec
ords. there dwelt between these two
craftsmen n quiet man whose desire
w as for la'iice mid w ho was sadly dia-
turbed by tbe noisy occupations eur-
ried ou by his busy neighbors, lie
therefore asked each of them to nay
for what sum they would change tlielr
dwellings. This they did. Each calcu
lated the amount required, aud he. he-
lug smlxtied, paid It over to them.
"Now." he asked of the copiiersmltb.
"where Is your new dwelling?” "I
have taken that of tbe maker of im
ages." was the reply.
"Aud you."
queried the quiet man of the latter,
"wlililior goest tliou?” "To the bouse
of the coppersmith!”
This Is one of many tales told In all
ages which ure woven luto myth and
legend and differ only In local color.

eututnltlre which gave him a clerkship.
He knew nothing about the clerk.
Ciimpliell did. Through some means
or another be had the clerkship trans
ferred to Ills uwu committee.
Six
usmths Inter Scott learned of the trick.
Meeting Campbell, he suld:
"That was 11 nice piece of pelty lar
ceny."
"Tilt. lilt. Mr. Scott." said Campbell)
"my committee needed n clerk worse
tlimi yours." Then, with twinkling
eyes. In- continued. "You are a mil-
lloinilra mid can afford tu hire half n

The ready reply stunned Scott. ' The

Where did etiquette require nobles to
appear before their sovereigns meanly
clad? This singular custom character
ised court ceremonial In ancient Mexico
under the Aztec dominion. When the
native lords and grandees had occasion
to seek the presence of Montezuma
they were under the obligation, as Tie
rlbio de Benevente. wlm accompanied
the Conquistador Cortes, testifies, of
assuming a voluminous mantle of |ss>r
material tuna manta grosera y pobrei.
with which they covered and concealed
their ordinary rubes. In token of sub
jection and humiliation. These were
manufactured out of the leaves of the
aloe tree by Qie commoner classes.
Etiquette required the strict observ
ance of Illis custom by all those who
came into the emiieror’s presence, with
the exception of persons of lhe royal
blood. Any one seeking audience of
the emperor had to don these common
clothes on Ills arrival at the palace.
Barefooted and wretchedly clad, be
was led before the sovereign and with
downcast eyes made his request, with
every outward sign of abject subserv
ience.

“John Burroughs, the nn I lira list

azine editor of New York, "and among
my guests was u young nature writer
of the new school.
"This young niau told a wonderful
story «bout tbe Intelligence of oysters.
He said be was going to |>ut lhe story
In Ills new book. Mr. Burroughs gave
a dry laugh anil said;
" 'Let me tell you about a cat. This
story is quite as authentic as the other
ouc. and it should do fur your book
nicely.’
"The venerable student paused Im
pressively, then said:
“ ‘A Springfield couple had a cat
that ag“e had rendered helpless, and
they put It out uf Its misery by means
of chloroform, They buried It lu the
gardeu mid |ilante<l a rosebush over
Its remains. The next morning a fa
miliar scratching took them to tbe
front door, mid there was that cat
waiting to be let iu. with the rose
bush under Its arm.’ ”
