When asked why she had never mar ried Rosa Bonheur always answered: “Nobody ever fell in love with me. I bave never been truly loved." More :han one man. however, really worshlp- ed her. But she inspired such deep re- ipect that no man seems to have dared to reveal bls feelings to her. There is 1 curious example of this fact, taken from the humble walks of life. On several occasions Rosa Bonheur bad Jone service for a workingman who throughout his life spent his savings In buying engravings of her principal pictures and photographs of herself. Ills simple dwelling was a temple to her kindness. He described himself ns “the earthworm in love with a star.” The person here referred to— E. A. Bautray of Clermont-Ferrand— tells me that Rosa Bonheur ouce asked him why he was not married, and be replied hy asking her the same ques tion. Here was her answer: “Well, sir, it Is not because I am an enemy of marriage, but 1 assure you that I have never had time to consider tbe ’Ubject." — “Reminiscences of Rosa Bonheur.” Paternalism In Groceries. Paternalism with a vengeance is prac ticed in certain New York groceries. It is benevolent paternalism, though. “Ma wants two pounds of sugar,” said u child to a patriarch iu the trade. He consulted a calendar on the wall. "1 guess you'd better take only a pound today.” he said, "and go kind of slow on that. The week is only half gone, but yon have already eaten up three-fourths of your allowance. Tell your mother so.” The child promised to deliver the re port on financial depression. "That Is the only way ou earth to keep those people from running into debt,” said the grocer. "The system Is common in this uelghltorhood. I do It at. the customers' request. Every pay day women with spendthrift hus bands mid au extravagant disposition of their own deposit enough money with the grocer aud butcher to see the family through tbe week. They la struct us to let no one overdraw the amount, and except In cases where ex- tra food is actually needed we stick to our end of the bargain.”—New’ York Times. Horrors of Bokhara. The terrible deeds that once made Bokhara a byword are uow prohibited by the Russian government. Prisoners are not permitted, for Instance, to be dragged through the streets by gal loping horses. Nor are they thrown from the top of the high tower called the Miliar Iiatan. This was the usu- all punishment meted out to evildoers In the old days. Watched by tbou- sands of spectators, the i»or wretches were fiuug from that giddy height ou to the flagstones lieneath. Bokhara bus many chambers of hor rors, unwholesome for western eyes to see and tlie description of which would certainly be unfit for publica tion. Perhaps the most horrible of these Is u pit where prisoners were tor lured by vermin, which were so nii- nierous and ravenous that in the a fa sence of human prey they were red on chunks of raw meat.—Wide World Magazine. Stag» Snow. In “Personal Reminiscences of nen- ry Irving" Brain Stoker lets bis rend ers into the secret of how the snow scene tn "The Corsican Brothers” was made so effective: “All over the stage was a thick blan ket of snow, white and glistening in tbe winter sunrise—snow that lay so thick that when th« duelists, stripped and armed, stood face to face they each secund a tinner foothold by clearing it away. Of many wonderful effects thia snow was perbap» the strongest and most impressive of real ity. The public could uever imagine how It was done. It was salt—common coarse salt—which was white In tbe appointed light and glistened like real snow. There were tons of it. A crowd of men stood ready In tbe wings with little baggage trucks such as are now nsed In the corrldots of great hotels, slleut with rubber wheels. On them were great wide mouthed sacks full of salt. When the signal catne they rush ed In on al) sides, each to bis appoint ed spot, and tumbled out his load, spreading It evenly with great wide bladed wooden shovels.” T.

There are few. however, who know how a bell re ceives its joyful or solemn tones. All bells after they are east and finished must go through a process of tuning the same as any other musical instru ment before they respond with a clear, true tone. Every bell sounds five notes, which must blend together In order to produce perfect harmony. The tuning of a bell is done by means of ■having thin bits from various parts of the metal. It is as easy for an ex pert bell tuner to put a bell In tune •a it is for a piano tuner to adjust hjs Instrument to perfect chords. At first thought it would seem that a bell would be ruined should a tuner shave off too much at the last tuuing, or the fifth sound, but such Is not tbe case. He would, however, be obliged to be gin over, starting again with tbe first tone and shaving the bell till it gave forth Its harmouious sound at the fifth tone.—Scientific American. No Clock Wanted, There had been some talk of placing ■ clock in the tower of tbe village church, But John, the old sexton, who lived in the little cottage opposite the church, declared himself "dead agin to” and expressed the opinion ibat It would mean “an awful waste o’ brass” ware the scheme carried out. “We want no clocks,” he said the other day. “We’ve done without clocks ■g to now, an’ we shall manage. Why. lyin’ 1’ my bed of a mornin’ I can see the time by the sundial over tbe porch.” "Tes,” replied one who approved of ths scheme, “that's all right so far as II goes.
