Interesting old t uvtonis StU lln Vogue In (lie Orient. In interesting ancient custom, still ob served In old-world out-of-the-way places, is tho "watching of tho myrrh," on Christmas eve, of tho old style, or twelfth night of the now, s,-iys lyesllo's Weekly. In the Isle of Man, according to tradition, various strange things oc cur on the Christinas eve. At mi.ltilehr two-year-old cattle kneel, bees awaken from their winter sleep nnd swarm out nf their hives, and the myrrh rises up from the soil and buds and blossoms miraculously, lining the air with sweet fragrance. These happenings, legend says,, are In memory of the night in Bethlehem when the klne paid homage on their knees and kings brought pres ents of myrrh to the divine b.ibo. Many peoplo In the Isle of Man spend the mid night hour of the hour referred to in watching for these wonder". The myrrh of the orient Is tho product of a tree that cannot flourish in a north. orn clime, and the myrrh of the Isle of .Man is merely nn aromatic plant whleh grows In old-fashioned gardens. Only old nwits, the natives declare, nre capable of perfoiming tho suppo(M miracle of flowering in midwinter. A party of curious visitors to the is land, who teste,l the tradition, found in n garden two llttlo conical buds scarcely , II f til of an Inch h.gh. They were watched for several hnur-.-. without nnv nnnnr. ent change In the plant. The watcher went back to their ipinrters full of un belief, but two of them later renewed the quest, and at daylight relumed with a plant three inches long, with a number of green leaves and a large white flower hud, The plant was placed In a t. a nn and It put forth blossoms .luring the ensuing fortnight. So a mlraelo seemed to have heen wrought. HHKAKINT, A IltlON'CHO O.V T1IH i'.ow-t;rN itNcii. Caullouslv. tenselv. without t'ie hi,v. of hesitation, Vx'atren tightly swings to ins seat.
