THE QUEEN'S BATH.
Odd Ceremony at the f?&iagaoy An
nual National FocUvaLi
The following is an account of
the strange ceremony prueticed at
the Malagasy national festival every
year, as related by nearly all the
travelers that have visited the land
of thc Ho vas. The '"'Fandronna,"
or royal balli, was first instituted
by King Itatambo and .is held annu
ally by royal proclamation -froth tho
22d of November to tho 10th of
January. During this time no bus
iness is allowed to proceed. Tho
people (af the kingdom meet the
queen in the silver palace On the
first day of the testival,4 and a red
cock JSi thou' brought by the head
priest ot sacrificer of the ,court Its
neck ia wrung, and toe blood being
caught in a banana leaf is carried
to tile sovereign, who touches with
it her forehead, nock, stomach, arm
pit, finger nails and ioe nails, tho
rest pf lihe assembly following the
?example. ?
.Next day the people assemble
again, for tho royal tain, in the great
palace. Thia ?J?e queen takes in ono
of the sacred corners of tho hali,
in a silver bath, being screened from
rview by "lambae/' held by her at
tendants. > " , '..>:*
'Amid tho firing of cannon arid
the joyous shouts of her ? humblo'
subjects, ?er majesty then passes
.along the balcony, from a horn
in her hand sprinkles.', the' crowd;
twith water She lias just been [using
if or her ablutions, exclaiming ai: the
same time, "Masina, aho!" (I am
purified.) This sprinkling is said
to typify the abundance of rain, dur
ing the coming year,
To be absent from tho ceremony
would be to incur tho royal dis
pleasure. Every wife, also, must be
*vith her husband, si that time, or
it is considered that she is aa good
-as divorced. The new* year is then
supposed to have begun, asid for
Several weeks there is a great deal
*>f visiting and feasting.
CalFo Foot Jelly and GIus.
Calf's foot jelly, or. gelatin, which
appears on tho table in the form of
various delicate eu uns and desserts,
is. mado by exactly tue sume process
as glue arid from exactly the sante
materials. Greater care is taken,
iiowever, in selecting tho parts of the
animal to bo used, and they are also
?leaned much more 'carefully. Aft
er coming from the cooling room
gelatin is spread much thinner on
the wire netting than glue, and when
it is dry girla cut it up with scissors
into pieces about six; niches; long by
ifcrec inches broad, anti it is m this
ifom tb?t it/pfton appears in the.
market. Some manufacturers, how
ever, break it Up into fine pieces and
soli it in small .package?. ^ C?e?atin
is much moro expensive than glue.
Isinglass, or fish glue, is another
product of tho glue factory arid;?9
much prized as a gum for the sealing
of letters arid the pasting of scrap
books. It is also used in the mak
ing; of confectionery..

HISTORY IN ART.
Customs and Ide*? of Ancient Nations
Shown In Their Buildings. j
Almost as much can be learned
about ancient nations from looking
at what they made .or .built as by
rcaauig their writings and inscrip
tions. For thc- kind of buildings that
any nation erected depended ou sev
eral different things-climat^, geog' I
r?phy, : building materials, religion, j
end government.
People in snowy Scotland, for in
stance, needed very different build
ings from those who lived in sunny
Italy. Some countries hird foreste
and built many wooden bpuses, oth
ers had great quarries and so made
uso of massive sione, and other
countries Chat had little stone or
wood, but had great beds of clay,
like ancient Syria* built their pal
aces and temples of burned clay
ni?do into bricks. iPeople who lived
among the mountains or by the sea,
as did tho people of (?reece and Ita
ly, built differently from, those who
lived on tho l?v?? olsinaof Asia or
?frica. Somo nations had many
gods and built temples for tho kind
of worship that their particular re
ligion required. Christum nations
lavished their skill and money wtep
'grand : cathedrals, ' convents : and
cloisters.
In countries where the Tuler was
a despot great palaces were built hy
slaves, but where there was no gro$f||
monarch, as in ancient Greece, there
Wpre no grand private buildings, but
the. finest worlc was put into great
public buildings for the people.
Yes,-if all the books and records
in the world were burned we should
still'be abio to traco the' customs
and ideas of ancient nations by the
structures and works of ort that
they have left,--Lucia Ames Mead

; ?: ; A Gigantic Seaweed.
Thc giant of the, seaweed family
and the, largest known species of
marino . algae bears the . scientific
name of nerocystis. It occasionally
attains a el?ngth of 300 feet and is
kept afloat on the ocean's surface on,
account of being buoyed by bladder
like enlargements of the stem, which
are filled with air. A| the plant
grows older these globose, bladder
lik^ ..Excrescences swell into great
retort Bhap'o cylmdere six to seven
feet in length and between four and
five feet-, in .'diameter. Where this
plant grows in any considerable
quantity it becomes impossible for
small craft to pass through them
on account of tho .density of the
' floating mais c$ vegetation. The
natives of tropical islands use the
bladd?r-like enlargements mentioned
for water vessels and ?or storing
away grain.

APPLES AND APPLICATION.
Th? Beginning of Ono of Now York'?
Sifl ?Jewolry Stores.
Ono ol the well known jewelry
shops in Broadwuy had its begin
ning in an apple basket in the days
when Xcw \ork women shopped in
Canal street and, the lower end of
Central park was fnr in the country.
Men who had stalls in Washington
market and other men who went
there to do their marketing will re
member a comely young .woman
Who sat there day in and day out
>Hh her apple basket, offering eb
ways the best pf apples for sale. Her
customers looked for her as regular
ly us one looks for daylight in the
morning, anti she never failed them.
And all tho time the young woman
woe putting aside in a little box at
home the dollars she could save
from her few* personal needs?
Sho waa on friendly terms with all
the butchers and green grocers and
fruit sellers who nod stella in the
market, and when they were tight
pressed for money they turned to
thc apple vornan for help. Always
she was ebie from her cariup to
help them over their, tight places for
a week or a month or six months.
But her friendship did not blind her
, to her business opportunities. Sive
j charged them 'for the money, and
not only this, but she always re
quired security. As often as not the
security was a watch or a ring or a
scarf pin, and in course of time she
found herself with a goodly number
bf articles of jewelry unredeemed.
?.These, to protect herself, she under
took to eefl. To do this she quit the
apple basket andrented a very small
shop and to her stock added ? few
now goods. Other customers came to
borrow money ontneir jewelry, and
in Urae she" waa running a full
fledged pawnshop. Gradually aa she
prospered sho aid away with the
money lending and increased the
amount pf new gooda, And as ber
business grew she moved into Jarger
quarters, and at the time of her
death, not many years ago, she was
reputed wealthy.---New York Her

Marriage tn Scotland.
? Scotch minister h?B been tell
ing some of his1 experiences in mar
rying people, which, are rather fun
ny. Sometimes when he has asked a
couple to join hands tho four join
hands all round, as if pi'eparing to
Bing "Auld Lang Syne." On several
Occasions when trie question was j
asked of trie bridegroom whether he
took this woman for his wife no re
ply was returned. He then repeated
the question more pointedly, which
always brought out tho tardy but
cool response, "Ofc^ayel"
? eommon practice af ter the knot
is tied is for the minister to shako
banda with the young couple and |
say,. "I wishg you much joy." A
bridegroom once briskly replied,
"The eame to you, sir." The minis- |
ter on one occasion remarked to a
middle aged bride t!i=i this was the; |
last time she 6hould sign her maiden
?name. She coolly replied, *Tvo%ign

Knowledge off Architecture.
It is often said that a little learn- j
;ing is a dangerous thing, for it
makes people who know only a little
conceited and critical. But, on the
other band, we must have a little I
learning before/we carf have much, j
and a little, learning may make us
ambitious instead of conceited. It
may open our , eyes to a thousand
?new-mt?resting things, in everyday
life; ? little knowledge about archi
tecture is more of a'help, too, than,
a little knowledge about most other
subjects; It .ia more important for

FEES OF LAWYERS.
They Are. Not Always as Largo a? They
Ar? Said to Be,. . j
The vaet majority of lawyers do ,
no better than make a fair living, (
and if an average could be made it
would bc found that * largo number 1
must earn ridiculously email suras.
An estimate recently made showing 1
that there are not five lawyers in
New York who make ,$100,000 a
year, not ton who make $?5.00O, not
fifteen who make $50,000 and not
twenty-five who make $25,000 is
probably not far wrong.
"Above all things, a successful
lawyer remarked not long ago, "ne^
*r take a lawyer's word about his
Ealary. He doesn't mean to prevari
cate, but the appearance of prosper
ity is so large a port of lits capital
that 'bluffimj about his income is a
natural habit, I can te -1 you. what I
make in a year, but I shouldn't ex
pect you to believe it, end I
shouldn't wish you. to behevo it, be
cause it probably would, bo uncon
sciously* exagseratede"
So many Afferent things influence
a lawyer's charges that it is hard for
on outsider to even guess at his in
come. One man has en invariable
rulq which he tries to carry out and
thinks hejBuccecds, although he nev
er hos been able to carry it out ex
actly in his whole career. Ile tries
to estimate the time he spends on
each case and to charge accordingly,
gradually increasing his fee as his
time has grown more valuable. An
other lawyer considers how the work
is done. If it is done in a great hur
ry, forcing him to drop other cases
and to work at night es well as dur
ing the dav to complete it, he
charges much more than for a caso
that fits in easily with his other la
bor. Still another, a conscientious
man, who robs himself for fear oC
! being suspected of robbing some one
else, figures carefully the value of
? his services to his client and reckons
his fee upon results more ?han upon
time or upon his personal inconven
ience.
But there aro thousands of cases
. for which no rule can properly ad
just the fee. One example will serve.
An'action was taken a year ago by
one man against another for $30,
000, and the defendant came one
dey to Ids . lawyer to say that ho
wasn't Willing to meet tho matter in
court and that the lawyer might pay
the money to the man who had
brought the action. The lawyer had
been interested in the case, and he
asked his client to letitia settle the
matter in his own way. The client
acquiesced on condition that tho
case was not to bo brought to court.
A few weekslater the plaintiff with
drew 'tho notion, as the lawyer had
{ foreseen that, he would. How much
ought tho lawyer to have charged
his client for this service ? The law
yer had spent little time over the
case, but he hod saved tho man $30,
000. He sent a bill for $2,500, which
was promptly and gratefully paid.

The Surgcon'o Romody.
j A famous Philadelphia physician,
I praising the speed of his profession
I in performing operations, told a sto
ry of an English Burgeon who had
performed successfully a difficult
I and delicate operation on a million
aire banker's wife. The bilMhat he
rendered for this operation was a
large one. It was not exorbitant, but
it was enough, a reasonable and just
bill. Tho banker, though, thought
i otherwise.. With on imprecation he
(declared the bill to ba an outrage.
"Why," ; he Cried, "tho operation
took you only ten jr?nutes."
% The surgeon laughed. "OW ,bo

Quite a Difference.
Horatio G. Herrick, of Lawrence,
Mas*., for mao y ycart? sherill of i-lssex
jouuty, took a lively interest in the
schools of his home town. Shortly
tfter ^Garfield's death Mr. Herrick
trieited one of the schools and made
in address upon the life of the etates
tnan. He asked :
"Now, can any off you tell me what
a statesman is ?"
A little hand went up, and a little
2!.rl replied :
"A stausman is a man who makes
speeches. "
"Hardly that," answered Mr. Her
rick, who loved to tell thia story.
"For instance, I sometimes make
speeches, and yet I am not a states
man."
The little hand again wont up, and
the answer came triumphantly :
"I know. A statesman is a man
who makes good speeches 1"
Curran's Wit.
Curran's ruling paj&ica was his
joke, .and it was -"erong, if not in
death, at least in his last illness. Ono
rooming hi? physician observed that
ho seemed to "cough with more diffi
culty."
"That is rather surprising,"' an
swered Curran, "for I have been prac
ticing all night."
While thus lying ill Curran was vis
ited by a friend, Father O'Leary, who
aleo loved his joke.
. "I wish, O'Leary," said Curran to
him abruptly, "that you had tho keys
of beaven.''
"Why, Curran?"
"Beoause you could let me in,"
said the facetious counselor.
"It would be much better for you,
Curran," said the good humored priest,
"that I had the keys of the other
place, because I oould then let you
out."
