TWO LaviDS AND A KATE,

The Charming Relationship That Existed Setween Ruskin and His Servants,

“T have got two Davids and a Kate that I wouldn't ehange fer anybody else’s sery- ants in the world, and I believe the only quarrel they have with me is that I don’t give them enough to do for me. This very morning I must stop writing presently to find the stoutest of the Davids some busi- ness, or he will be misernble all day.’’ So wrote Ruskin in ‘ Fors Clavigera.’’ The words did n°* express merely a poetic'gen- timent of the author; they ¢1so represent- ed a phase of his domestic life, as the fol- lowing extract from an English yp: proves:

Mr. Ruskin and I wero dining togcther. Duting the meal, as we were cnjoying a rhubarb tart, 1 bappened to say that it was the first I had tasted that scascn and how delicious it was.

riedical

The professor wes delighted at my ep- ,reejation of his rhubarb, and, ringing for one cf to corsets, he said, ‘‘}’lcase tell

Jackson I weht him.’

This was the gardener—ore ef the Da- vids, I suppose. When he caine into the room, his master said, ‘Jackson, I am very pleased to tell you that your first pulling of rhubarb is quite a success, and my friend here, who has had some pie made of it, says it is delicious.”’

Jackson, with a true gardener’s pride, thanked us both for our appreciation of his early rhubarb and left the room.

When we had finished dining, a servant came in, bringing a number of lighted candles. The windows being shaded by the overhanging trees above, the room was almost dark even before the sun had gore down. After placing the candles she was leaving the room, when she said, ‘‘ Please, sir, there is a beautiful sunset sky just now over the ‘Old Man.’ ’’

The professor rose from his chair at once and said, ‘‘Thank you, Kate, for telling us, but before disturbing my friend I will go and see if it is worth looking at.”’

He left the room and soon returned.

‘*Yes,’’ he said, ‘‘it is worth seeing,” and he led the way up stairs to his own bedroom.

It was certainly a glorious sight, the sun sinking behind the Coniston ‘‘Old Man’’ mountain and the mist and ripples on the lake tinged with a crimson flush.

We sat in the window recess till the sun went down behind the mountain. Nota word was spoken by either of us. I was thinking of thecharming relationship and sympathy manifested between master and servant and how strange it would seem to most of us that even such a trifling matter as a gardener’s first rhubarb is not to be left as a matter of course, nor such a com- mon occurrence as a beautiful sunset to be left to pass away unnoticed in this ex- cepntional househe',

axhe Indian Plague.

In speaking of the plague The Indian Mirror says: ‘‘How often have we not be- sought our countrymen to revive the re- ligious practices enjoined in the Shastras, how often have we not entreated them to celebrate the Yagna ceremonies? The Rishis were far greater sanitarians than those of the medern times calling them- selves by that name. The Rishis also un- derstood the causes of disease better. Let these Yagnas be performed simultaneously in all parts of India, and we undertake to say that not only will the plague disap- pear, but there will be a sensible mitiga- tion of the famine. Huge fires, lighted in a hundred different places in a town so distressed as Bombay and fed with ghec, sandalwood and the other ingredients used in the Yagna ceremonies, will destroy all the plague germs in the atmosphere and free that city of its deadly enemy within a week.’”’

Her majesty has only four grandsons who have taken wives unto themselves— namely, the Duke of York, the German emperor and his brother, Prince Henry, and the Grand Duke of Hesse.

It is said that there has been of late an extraordinary increase in the number of foreign bandsmen employed in the British navy. The majority of these are Maltese and Italians.

mweeNTITY IN FUNNELS. Some Distinguishing Marks on the At. lantic Ocean Steamships.

Watching outgoing and incoming ocean steamships has become an interesting pas- time with thousands of persons who are employed during the day in the tall office buildings on the lower end of Manhattan Island.

With many persons the ability to identi- fy the different vessels as they pass and re- pass at a distance is a matter of proud sat- isfaction. A few sharp eyed ones become so expert by practice that they can distin: guish peculiar marks on each vessel and can toll at a glance the difference between a Cunarder and an American liper, a North German Lloyd steamer 7 any oth: ex ocean liner.

It is by the funnels that most persons are “ble to distinguish the vessels of one “ 1 the vesscla of another. Almost every line hes some peculiarity in color about its funnel, so thet the picking ont of yegcels of Aifferent lizzs by long dis taboc on the racing track by the colors of the jockeys’ caps. The Cunard line has a red funnel, with a black top; the American line’s funnels are black, witha white band; the White Star, cream color, with black top; the North German Lloyd, cream col- or; the Guion line, black, with broad red band and black top; the National line, white, with black top, and the State line, light buff, with red band and black top.

The steamcrs of the Netherland line to Holland have black funnels, with two green bands and a white band in the cen- ter; the Atlas line’s funnels are white, - with red and white band and black top; the Pacific mail steamers, black; Clyde line, black, with red band and black top; Old Dominion line, black; Sumner line, red, with black top and two white bands; Red ‘‘D”’ line, black, with red letter D in white band; ‘’hingvalla line, yellow, black band, with blue star; Cromwell line, black, with two yellow bands; New York Steamship line, the ‘‘house flag’’ a burgee with red border, white center and blue let- ters ‘‘N. Y.’’—New York Times.

A Grateful Tenant.

Mr. Ford has some houses in Brooklyn, one of which he rented to Mr. Stone, a mason. For three months Mr. Ford failed to coliect the rent and at last resolved tc send Mr. Stone adrift. ‘

‘But if Lam put out, Mr. Ford,’’ said Stone, ‘‘I can’t move my duds. I have no money.”’

Mr. Ford, being tender hearted, gave him $2, and Stone moved out. Shortly afterward Mr. Ford appointed an agent to attend tohis rents. Every:hing went right until one day Mr. Ford found that the rent of a certain house remained unpaid.

‘The tenunt’s all right, sir,’’ said the agent. ‘‘He’s a good man of the name of Swne, a mason, and he'll) pay in a day or two.”’

The owner called upon the backward nant and found thant he was the same Stone whom he had evicted some months before.

‘*How is it that you’re back here again said Mr. Ford.

‘Really,’ said Stone, ‘I couldn’t think of patronizing another landlord, Mr. Ford. You had been kind to me, and I felt grate- ful.’’—Harper’s Round Table.
