unwilling to give up their etts-

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.”

Tuning Bells.
“What a beautiful tone that bell
has!” Is often heard. 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. But tbe sun doesn't shine
•very morning. What do you do
ttaar
“Why," answered John snrprlsedly.
“I knows then as it ain't fit weather
to be out o’ bed, an' I just stops where
I to.”—London Tit-Bits.
