Then he followed them out to the portico, where one of them, who had a kodak, asked permission to take bis photograph. She hadn't the slightest suspicion who he was, but during the hour they had been jogether in the palace they had laughed and joked familiarly and feit very well ac- quainted. The gentiemen gracefully con- sented, and posed for three snap shots. they would enjoy their visit to Germany, ealuted them in the German way and re- entered the palace. The young ladies were delighted and re- lated their experience with great gusto when they returned to their boarding house. That afternoon they took their kodak to a photographer to have tho films developed, and when they brought home the first prints of the handsome officer their German landlady exclaimed: ‘‘Gott in bimmel! Der kaiser!’’—W. E. Curtis in Chicago Record. The Love of History. The love of history seems inseparable from human nature because it seems in- separable from self love. ‘The same prin- ciple in this instance carries us for- ward and backward, to future and to past ages, and runs through mankind from Cesar down to the parishclerk in Pope’s “Miscellany.’’ We are fond of preserving, as far as it is in our power, the memory of ourown adventures, of those of our own time and of those who preceded it. Rude heaps of stone have been raised, and ruder bymns have been composed, for this pur- pose by nations which had not yet the nse of arts and letters. To go no farther beck, the triumphs of Odin were celebrat- ed in runic songs, and the feats of our British ancestors were recorded in those af their bards. The savages of America have the same custom at this day,.and long his- torical ballads of their huntings and their Wars are suny at all their festivals ‘| nere is no need of saying bow this pas- sioh grows among civilized nations in pro) ortion to the means of gratilying it, but ict us observe that the same principle of nuiure directs us as strongly, and more gene: lly as well as more early, to indulge our own curiosity instead of preparing to gratify that of others. The child hearkens with delight to the tales of bis nurse. He learns to read, and be devours with eager- ness fabulous legends and novels. In riper years be applies himself to history, or to that which he takes tor history, to author- ' ized romance, and even in age the desire of knowing what has happened to other men yields to the desire alone of relating what has happened to ourselves. ‘hus history, true or false, speaks to our pas- sions always.—New York Ledger. He Collapsed. A cat may look at a king, but itis sometimes at the cat’s peril—at least so it would seem, judging from this anecdots concerning the late poet Jaurcate of Eng land. ‘lennyson was once dining at the house of his brother-in-law, Protessor Lushington, and amoung the guests was ar inoffensive stranger, who, never having had the honor of being in Mr. Tennyson’s company before, every pow and then stole @ glance of curiosity at She illustrious poet. Suddenly, however, those present were startled by the poet, who bad been rather quiet for some time, looking up from the tablecloth and glaring wrathfuliy round the table. He fixed the young man with his glittering eye and said loud enough to be heard by all present, ** You are look- ing at me, I tell you.’’ The collapse of the young gentleman wns, of course, com- plete and instantaneous.—Christian Work.

They spend their days doing absolutely nothing, for they disdain sewing, cooking and general household duties. They leave the care of their chil- | dren to slaves, and they cap neither read ’ | nor write, | Generally in a rich house there is one Bi | chief slave, a sort of housekeeper, rather a grand person, whom it is always wise to conciliate if you intend having many dealings with that establishment. In summer she is always dressed in purest white. In winter velvets and brocades are not beyond her reach. She is generally an | elderly person, with considerable influence | and a good deal of authority. ! r Ta . We hav ec a lar ge Then there is another who is a sort of inaid to the lady of the house. She is an- other person with whom itis not wise to quarrel. She is always very much in evi- dence. She it is who prepares every- | thing for her mistress’ toilet, as also for her master’s. It is the wife’s special dut@ and privilege, however, when the things are prepared, to wait upon her hus- mand when he is dressing, to pour the water over his hands and feet during his Se washings, to spread his prayer carpet, to put his favorite dish before him, and 80 on. It is dificult to appreciate the exact po- sition of these Afghan women until one sees the way in which mothers are treated by their sons. They may nurse them when - they are sick, tend tygm when they are young, but let the boys grow to be 11 or 12 years old, and you will hear them tell their mother to ‘“‘chup sho’’ (shut up); send them to fetch their caps and expect te be addressed by the mothers as ‘‘agha gul,’’ or ‘‘agha jon,’’ which means ‘‘my precious master,’’ *‘master dear.” Kabul mothers seldom have much affec- tion for their children or their children for them. ‘They do not nurse them as ba- bies, and their babyhood is a particularly long one, for they are very backward. They belong to their nurses more than to their mothers till they are 23¢ years old, aml after that it is their father who no- tices them and not their mother.—Phila- delphia Press. These we will VY.
