HOW THEY SWEAR. *—

Oaths That Obtain ta Various Parts of the Earth.

In the yarious nations there are many curious forms of taking oaths to assure truthfulness. A Hindoo law says: ‘‘Let a judge swear a Brahmin by his veracity, a soldier by his horses, his elephants or his arms; an agriculturist by his cows, his grain or his money; and a Soudra by all his crimes.’

In Chinese courts, when a witness is sworn, a live cock is brought into court and the head of the birdcuat off. Another form is for the witness to take in his hands a saucer and say: ‘‘In the face of Giod I break this saucer; if it comes to- gether again Chinaman has teld a lie and expects mot to live five days; if it remain asander Chinaman has told the truth and escapes the vengeance of the Alnighty.’’ He then smashes the saucer in pieces and becemes a qualified witness. One, and perhaps both, of these forms have been used in California, where Chi- samen have been called as witnesses,

The ancient Jews swore by the book of the law; the Egyptians by the head of their king, and the Greeks by one or yore of their numerous gods who were supposed to have charge of the particu- lar matter. The people of Arcady swore by the waters of Styx and the Romans by their faith and honor. The Persians swore by the sun, while the Celts in taking an oath laid their hand upon a pillar of stone. The only binding oath upon a Highlander is one sworn upon the point of his dirk; he cares nothing for an oath taken wpon the gospels or the cross,

The Rassians swear by the cross and the Germans and French by the uplifted hand, as is common with us, concluding with the formula, ‘‘So help me God.”’

Many forms of oaths may be found in Chaucer, Shakespeare and the elder dramatists. Hamlet swears Horatio and Marcellus upon the hilt of his sword, and Touchstone swears Rosalind and Celia by their beards, which they had not, and consequently could not be for- sworn. In the Canterbury Tales the prioress sweara ‘‘by St. Eloy,’’ the host ‘by my father’s soul,’’ the carpenter's wife ‘‘by St. Thomas of Kent, ”’ and the merchant ‘‘by St. Thomas of Inde.’

The favorite oath of William the Con- queror, was ‘‘by the splendor of God,”’ that of Henry IX. of France ‘‘par la yentre St. Gris,’’ and that of Chevalier Bayard ‘‘par la vraye corps de Dieu.”’

Innumerable other oaths even more curious may be ciiled by the students of history and of literature.—Chicago Times-Herald.

His Authority Wora Out.

Ip farmer years, before the Adminis- tration of Andrew Johnson, who made the veto power infamors, a message from u president expressing hig disapproval of legislation was a rare and sglemn thing. It was customary for both Houses to ad- journ immediateiy after such documents were read, in order to signalize their im- porsance. But now vetoes are so common that they are allowed to lie upon the ta- bie unopened until an opportune time otfers for their presentation. Neither the speaker of the house nor the president of the senate will interrupt the regular or- der to hear them read, and they make so | slight an impression that Representative Beach is reminded of a story of a boy who heard his father call him to come into the house and go to bed, but paid no attention to the paternal command. Whereupon a bystander asked, with some surprise.

“Johnnie, is not that your father call- ing?’

‘*Yes, sir,’’ was the reply.

“Then why don’t you obey him?”’

“Why, nobody obeys him any more,”’ was Johnnie’s reply. ‘‘He keeps telling everybody to do things and nobody ever docs them. He keeps telling everybody that they mustn't do things, and they keep right on doing them all! the same: Nobody don’t pay any attention to hiem no more. Ms don’t, the hired girl don’t, and I don't, and the dog don’t either.— Pittsburg Dispatch.

Precaution,

There was a look of intense anxiety on the face of the man who had pushed open the door of the scientist s room.

**Professor,’”’ he said, ‘‘you know a4 great deal about nerves.’’

‘‘Yes, I am supposed to.”’

“Well, I wish you would find out for me, and let me know as early as possi- ble, which are the more sensitive, the optic nerves or the iditory nerves.’’

“What do yau want to know for?’’

“Well, you see, I'm a believer in the theory that absolnte perfection 1s an im-

possibility. And, at the same time, I

think a man has always the right to ,

choose the lesser of two evils.’’ i ‘What hus all this to do with it?’’ 4

“Two girls have taken advantage of the fact that it’s leap year and proposed to me. One of them paints and the other plays the piano.”’ —Washington Star.

Geographical heart.

In a certain school some of the classes are deep in the study of physiology. They seem to take a great interest in it, but are disposed to be painfully accurate about their answers to questions. The other day a review was in order, ‘Which. of you children,’’ asked the teacher, “can tell me in what part of your body your heart is situated?’’ A modest little maid on the back seat held up her hand.

“Oh, Mary!—Well, where is your heart?’ “In the north central part, ma’am,”’ answered Mary.— Boston, Herald.

If there ig any thing above all other to be detested in a person it is the faculty of not being able to mind his or her own ba@siness. Generally the people who do the most gossiping are those who live in the house of the thinnest glass, and if the curtains were raised things might be revealed which would everlastingly put a stopper on thelr tongues and cause them to hide their heads with shame. Some people talk about others because they have nothing better to do; others say things concerning their nelghbors and friends for the pure deviltry of it, and then there is the class of gossips whose tongues are the worst, and they say things, true or uDtrue, just because they heave an idea that they are saying something smart. Do these people ever stop to think for a moment of the feel- ings of those about whom remarks have been made? Probably they don't. But let someone say something about them and let it reach theirears, what a tongue lashing results! And the meanest feature of the whole thing is that they never say it to the face of the maligned persons, but always behind their backs like cow- ards. As long as a poison breaks no law and goes his own way without molesting any one it is nobody's business what he doeg and if anybody makes it his or her business generally that anybody is a no- body. This is a free country, and every person in it is entitled to his or her opin- ton, but when these opinions become of a persenal nature and are spoken with the intent to smart and have something to say, the person who does the talking is as a rule, not to be compared in the same breath with the victim. The best policy to pursue is the old one of ‘‘Minda your own business.’’ There is enough to he taken care of at home as a rule.

Nowadays when ladies takepart

in so many active sports it is necessary to have gowns that will preserve their graceful shape } thro’ every kind of exercise. and * this is why Fibre Chamois is so immensely popular. It never loses its charming stiffness, yet owing to its flexible nature it {m- parts a sinuous grace to your gowns which nothing can disturb. Dresses interlined with it will have just the same style at the end of the season as at the be- ginning.

But don’t expect these results from imitations, always see the label on each yard to be sure that you are getting the genuine , Fibre Chamois—it never dis- appoints.

An Unconventional Bird,

Whether the Bohemian waxing has acquired his name from a fanciful resem- blance in habits or actions to that class of artists and writers called **Bohem- fans,’ I know not; but certain it is, if the name has been thus derived, it is not in the least inappropriate. He is very irregular, and so capricious are his move- ments that his appearance has no rela- tion to season or weather, the question of a suitable food supply being the only controlling interest in his wanderings. No district can count him as one of its regular inhabitants, but all places are fa- wored by an occasional visit, Where there are cedar berries, ripe cherries or other fruits he is almost sure to be present.

Although not brilliantly attired, he 1s yet an unusually attractive bird. His head is conspicuously crested; his whole body is of a soft and rich light brown, and his form is particularly neat and graceful. The name ‘waxwing’’ has been derived from the red appendages on the wings, and sometimes on the tail, which resemble bits of red sealing wax. Yhe exact use of these appendages is not clear, but the bird is very fond of dis- playing them, and if may be that they are simply ornamextal excrescences.

He is very fond of company, and ex- cept during the breeding season large

fiucks are found near where their food is obtained. No conventional rules of sc- ciety burden him, and he acts ever as if disdaining anything that smacks of con- servatism. In his actions are plainly no- ticed the joyous, free-hearted and gener- ous nature which undoubtedly has béen the derivation of his name, He even re- fuses to accept the established manner of bird flight, and has invented cne of his own. With all his pleasing actions and appearance he is a very poor vocalist; but as this is his only shortcoming, and his deficiency in this is more than sup- plied by cther birds, less interesting in plumage and habits, we can pardon the omission, and some may even say that this lack is really a blessing. The only note that he is capabie of uttering isa simple lisping sound resembling some what the word ‘‘peep.’’ But this is totally unlike the notg of any other bird, and it may possibly be that it is only another of his attempt at original- ity.

Hoe has not thus far succeeded in in- venting a new order of bird architecture, though his bears evidence of his efforts in that direction, In the branch of an apple tree, at a height of abcut 10 feet, he deposits a mass of stems, twigs, rootlets and dry leaves, and weaves into a compact and firm structure. In this nest the female deposits five eggs of a slate color, marked with spots apd splashes of dark-brown and purple. He is a very obliging husband, and aids bis faithful wife in the duties attending ihe rearing of the young birds.

The scientists have bestowed upon him the unpronounceabie name of Ampelis garrujlus, and who is there who, possess-

nest

s taem

ing his other traits, would not feel elated at the possession of such a title. But the rnassuming waxwing bears thi

name with commendable gravity, and if he feels the dignity of his station, no traces cf it are to be found in his actiong.

Affliction,

Affliction comes to us all not to make us sad, but sober; not to make us sorry, but wise; not to us despondent, but by its darkness to refresh us, as the night refreshes the day; not to impover- ish, but to enrich us, as the plow enriches the field, to multiply our joy as the seed

make

! by planting is multiplied a thousandfold.

— Beecher.

Natural Phenomenon,

“‘This is the littlest fifty pounds of ice I ever see,”’ said the kitchen lady.

‘“‘Permit me tv inform you, madam,”’ said the high-browed iceman, ‘‘that the apparent smallness is due to the intense cold to which we subject our ice in the process of manufacture, thereby produc- ing contraction."*—Cincinnati Enquirer.

Early Golf Balls.

Golf balls were at one time made by compressing a hatful of feathers into a little pocket of bull’s hide cured with alum. ‘They were shaped more like an egg than the peferct round gutta now in use. There was prejudice against the guttas when they first came in.
