Tsar and Czar.
Frequently tbe Inquiry is made aa
to jvby tbe spelling tsar, to designate
the emperor of all tbe Rumtlaa. should
be preferred to cur. Tbe most uat-
ural and obvious auswer la that the
spelling Indicates tbe Russian pronun­
ciation of the word, wblcb csar does
not.
Tbs title comes from an old
Slavonic word, wblcb some authorities
are agreed Is not derived from tbe
Latin caeear. but there are authori­
ties who bold tbat its ultimate deriva­
tion is from tbs Roman. Tbe origin
of tbe common spelling is supposed
to be tbe writings of Herbersteln.
about 1550. Tbe letter "c” tn Roman-
Slavonic has tbe sound of “tx.” Tbe
letter was copied, but tbe sound wsa
not. The letter “x” never belonged tn
tbe word. Tbe spelling czar Is now
regarded by many as old fashioned.
With some Germans tbe spelling is
zar, which Is pronounced tsar. Many
of the French bare adopted tsar as
tbe spelling, and tbat form is increas­
ing in English. The London Times, a
most careful authority, employs it, and
so does tbe Encyclopedia Britannica
in its supplementary volumes.—Chica­
go Reccrd-Herald.
Ths Green Constable.
A new constable on duty in a pro­
vincial town banded to a sergeant a
shilling which be said he bad found.
Tbe man with tbe three stripes told
bim he was quite right tn acting as be
had done. Proceeding on bls round,
tbe sergeant met a brother sergeant
and. with a grin, told him tbe tale of
tbe shilling. They both agreed tbe
new recruit was very green, and at
tbe conclusion of their duties they
went to tbe nearest inn. and the pos­
sessor of tbe coin called for fwo drinks.
On receiving them he threw down the
■hilling to pay for them, but tbe land­
lord refused it. saying it was a bad
one. Tbe sergeant, notoriously mean,
bad to supply the requisite amount out
ot bls uwu pocket and also to put up
with tbe laugb against himself. On
bls telling tbe constable bis find was a
bad one tbe man answered: “Yes. of
course It was. Do you think I would
have been silly enough to give it to
you if it hadn’t been?”—Pearson's.
An Honor to Allison.
“Do you know,” Inquired Wilbur
Reaser, the New York portrait painter,
“that when my painting of Senator Al­
lison was bung in tbe lobby of tbe
senate the precedent of forty years
was broken Y'
Surprise being expressed. Mr. Reaser
explained:
“It is a fact that since tbe beginning
of constitutional government tbe sen­
ate had bought only nine portraits for
the lobby. Tbe flrat was Washington’s
and tbe eighth was Charles Sumner’s.
For almost forty years nobody was
considered worthy to follow in the dis­
tinguished line.
It was generally
thought tbat no other portrait would
ever be added to the group, but when
Senator Allison died, after serving
longer in tbe senate than any other
man in tbe history of the government,
the rule was broken, and bls picture be­
came tbe ninth.**—Washington Times.
Gorman Bursauoraoy.
A good story la going the rounds of
tbe French newspapers illustrating
tbe beauties of bureaucratic go ivern-
meat in Germany, We are told tbat
in tbe postofflce department if * clerk
wishes a new pencil be has to band
in tbe stump of the odo tbst has be­
come too short to work with. In tbe
particular instance cited a clerk re­
ceived his new pencil without return­
ing tbe end. Before tbe omission was
discovered the clerk was transferred
to another office. Just after be bad
comuieuced his duties at bls new post
be received an official intimation that
be bad neglected to hand in bls pencil
end. By this time It bad disappeared,
but to prevent bother the clerk pur­
chased a new pencil, cut off a piece
about the length of the missing bit
and disfwtcbed It to tbe stationery de­
partment.
Criticising Dad.
“A d eld man In Missouri tried to
commit suicide by banging bltnwlf
wltb a blind bridle.” said Champ
Clark. “His son cm him down Just in
time.
"When the son cut bim down and
brought him to tbe old man complain
ed feebly:
“‘It ain’t right. Henry: you've kept
yonr old father out of bearen.’
" ’You’d cut a One figure la heav­

Maska of th» Marquooana.
Tbe Marquesana of a geueratiog ago
were tbe moat completely and artisti­
cally tattooed people tn tbe Pacific. a^d
tbe pnictlca of tattooing is carried on
ltuoug them to a certain extern today.
Tbe really fine pieces of work, how­
ever. such as tbe famous right leg of
tbe late Queeu Vaekebu of Nukablrn.
are confined entirely to tbe very old.
and. what wltb wrinkles, deformities
and tbe wear and tear of time, these
have lost most of their original sharp­
ness ot color and outline. None of tbe
new generation appears to have tbe
fortitude to endure tbe ^qulsite pain
incident to bavlng a whole limb picked
out in a lacework of geometric design
or tbe face barred and circled like a
coarse spider's web. Women are rare­
ly tattooed at all now. and most of
tbe young men are satisfied wltb a
broad band of solid black, not unlike a
highwaymans mask, which reaches
across tbe face from ear to ear. giving I

His Long Sult.
He had written essays critical nnd
digests analytical. His articles polit­ I
ical were very widely read. He'd pro­
duced some tales of mystery, of trsvel,
love and history; bls scientific treatises
light o'er the land bad sbed. He wrote
about photography, geography, stenog­
raphy; he'd finished a biography of
some distinguished man. His views
npon geometry and mystic trigonometry
were everywhere declared to be on
tbe progressive plan. His tracts on
I
modern sciences, mecbunlcal appli­
ances. hydraulics, steam und railroads
were Indulgently received. His writ­
ings on morality were of superior qual­
ity—were publicly commended. If they
weren’t quite believed. His verses so
poetical, abstruse and theoretical, de-
llgbied tbooe who patronize tbe poets
as a fad. but tbe manuscript he thought
tbe best, the one tbat money brought

worded, big newspaper ad. I— Newspa-

Littlo Boy Grizzly.
Enos A. Mills, writing of bls ad-
ventures with a pet bear known as
Little Boy Grizzly, says: "He and
I bad a few foot races, and usually. In
order to give me a better chance, we
ran downhill. In a 200 yard daab be
usually paused three or four times and
waited for me to catcb up, and I was
not a slow biped either. Tbe grizzly,
though apparently awkward and lum-
berly, is one of tbe most agile of beasts.
I constantly marveled at Grizzly’s
lightness of touch or tbe deftness of
movement of bls forepaws Wltb but
one claw touching it be could slide a
coin back and forth on tbe floor more
rapidly and lightly than 1 could. He
would slide an eggshell swiftly along
without breaking it Yet by using one
paw be would without effort overturn
rocks tbat were heavier than blmaelf.”

An Early Airship.
We are told by I’eter Farley, who
wrote as an eyewitness, that In Au­
gust. 1835. the airship Eagle was of­
ficially advertised to sail from Ixindon
with government dlapaictMa and pas­
sengers for Paris and to establish di­
rect communication between tbe capi­
tals of Europe. This early type of air­
ship was 100 feet loug. fifty feet high
and forty feet wide, and she lay iu
tbe dockyard of tbe Aeronautical so­
ciety In Victoria road, near Kensing­
ton gardens, then quite a rural spot.
Built to bold an abundant supply ot
gas. »be was covered with oiled lawn
and carried a frame seventy-live feet
long and seven feet high, with a cabin
secured by ropes to tbe balloon. An
immense rudder and wings or tins on
each side for purposes of propulsion
completed her fittings. Tbe deck was
guarded by netting. After all Ibis
preparation and advertisement tbe Ea­
gle never got beyond Victoria road, for

ed to provide tbe necessary motive

Carrying a Strotchor.
Tbe bearers of a stretcher should be
as near tbe same height as possible.
If there Is any difference tbe 'alter
and stronger man should be at tbe
bead. A stretcher should be carried
by the bands or suspended by straps
from tbe shoulders. Never carry n
stretcher when loaded upon tbe shoul­
ders. It frightens the patient, and he
might fall off very easily, especially If
one of tbe bearers should stumble. The
bearers should not keep step, but break
step, the one in front starting off with
his right foot and tbe one behind with
bis left. Tbe injured should be car
ried feet first. In golug up u hill or up­
stairs tbe bend should be In front nnd
tbe reverse In descending, except tn
case of a broken thlgb or leg. when
tbe feet should be first in going up «no

Coming In Out of the Wot.
There Is an amusing story by Atbe-
naeus which suggests tbe possible ori­
gin of tbe phrase “He does not know
enough to come In out of the wet.” Ac­
cording to tbe entertaining grammarian
referred to, a town In Greece under
stress of evil circumstances borrowed
money from a rich man. who took ns
security for tbe loan a mortgage on the
handsome portico which surrounded
tbe market place. He was not an un­
generous creditor, for when It rained
be caused tbe town criers to announce
that the citizens bad permission to
take refuge under tbe colonnade.
Strangers visiting tbe town who fail­
ed to have the mater properly explain­
ed to them were so impressed by tbe
extraordinary circumstances that they
spread abroad the report tbat tbe peo­
ple were so stupid tbat they bad to be
told when to come tn out of tbe wet.
