TEE STORY OF LIGHT EARLY SCONCES AND LANTERNS, CANDLESTICKS AND LAMPS. Tragic Incident of the Ancient Custom of Carrying lFnambeaum at Festivals - Origin of the Phrase, "Holding a Candle to You." There was a panic of a curious origin about the beginning of the eleventh eentury. It was widely believed that the year OJO would witness the end of the world, and this superstition caused a very general stagnation of industry and commerce. Such panics have oc nrred at irregular intervals ever since, the last one being within the memory of the present generation and inspired by Mother Shipton's prophecy: The world to an end shall come In eighteen hundred eighty-one. )wever, as soon as people became convinced that the world was not real ly going to come to an end in the year 1000, they resumed their work and play, and the making of lamps and candlesticks, like other manufactures, entered upon an era of prosperity. Monasteries were famous schools for this work, as for all other forms of handicraft, and paid peculiar attention to the beautifying of lamps and can dlesticks because of their usefulness in church services. During the eleventh century Dinant, in Belgium, became famous for its copper work, and some of the most beautiful chandeliers of this period were made there. At about this time the "couronne des lumieres," or circle of lights hung from the ceil ing, became a common device for light ing a church, and some of these are exquisit" works of art. In this period, too, various devices for improving and shielding the light came into use. Our ancestors were very practical people, and if. some of their utensils appear to us somewhat singular it is because we do not under stand the purpose for which they were used. It Is rare indeed to find any cumbersome addition to a lamp or candlestick which has not its use. The old time silversmiths and copper work ers did not spend their strength on mere decoration. The sconce and the lantern were in general use throughout the middle ages. The sconce was a light covered and guarded from the wind, lifted down by a handle, and distinct from the lantern, serving somewhat the same purpose, but hung by a chain. Lanterns in the thirteenth century were made of gold, silver, copper or iron, according to the means of the owner. The light in them was shield ed from the wind by thin sheets of horn. Lantern making was an impor tant industry in Paris. At this time, too, noblemen and rich merchants took to having luxurious little traveling equipments made for them, and among these were traveling candlesticks and wash basins in this fine enameled work, the secret of which is now lost. The custom of having servants carry flambeaus at festivals also became general about this time, and a strange and tragic incident is connected with this fashion. At a ball given by Charles VI. the torches carried by some careless servants came too near the headdresses of certain persons dressed as savages and set them on ire. The unfortunate guests were burned to death, and the king at the sight lost his reason, a madness which iad a serious effect on the history of France. Magic lanterns were invented in the time of King Francis I. A device on a omewhat similar plan was used as a sign before shop doors to attract cus tom. Lamps fell into disfavor at the begin iing of the seventeenth century and ere used only by the poor and in pas sages and stables where the smoke ould evaporate and a great deal of light was needed. Candles had then reached their perfection and candle sticks their most. exquisite form. A andlestick of crystal given by Louis XIV. to La Valliere is still In existence, and it was at this time also that the crystal pendants came into fashion. Street illumination was not seriously attempted in Paris until about the mid dle of the seventeenth century. In the first years of that notable century the streets of Paris were dark. The rich were escorted by lackeys bearing torches, the middle class folk picked their way, lantern In hand, while the poor slid along, feeling their way by the walls. In his edict of September, 107, the king provided that candles In losed in a cage of glass should be hung by cords at the height of the first story of the house, three lanterns for every street, one at each end and one in the middle. At the sound of a bell, struck by a watchman, they were lighted. Paris was, however, considerably in advance of other cities of the world at this time. In London link boys stood about in public places calling out in lugubrious tones, "Gentlemen, a lighti" The origin of the phrase "holding the candle to yol" is somewhat doubtful, but some authorities trace it to the fact that, as the small light stand had not yet been devised, any one who de sired to read in bed had to have a ser vant stand beside him to hold the can dle. One cannot imagine that reading In bed under these circumstances would be very enjoyable, certainly not to one who had been accustomed to sol itude and a gas jet easily turned on or off, but there is everything in habit.

Anthony Fiala, in his iccLIIds of "Two Years In the Arctif" in ic Clure's Magazine, tells of his re'3*'Ue from a deep crevasse on Ih:ker i'1dIi. He was crossing an ice cap when the snow gave way beneath him. lIe Le gan a frightful descent and then lo, consciousness. On recovering consciousness. he writes, I found myself wedged between two curves in the walls of the crevasse, the convex surfNees or whicb narrow ed sufliciently to hold n between the breast and back. My let't arm was bent over my breast and had prevent ed me from falling through the neck of the funnel. Beneath was a great Cavern in which I could move my legs without finding the walls. Had I step ped three feet farther to the right I should have droppel in depths un fathomable. The darkness was intense, but far above me shone a faint halo of blue with rays of light that caie part way along a face of black, glassy ice. This told me where the men were. They asked how deep I had fallen. I shout ed that I was about 150 feet down. for so it seemed to me. Just then I heard an awful sound in the crevass:. It appeared to come from below. My first thought was that a pack of dogs had fallen in with me. Soon the noise turned into articulate speech. and I learned that St'w:d Spencer, who had tried to save me, had fallen in too. At last I saw above me the end of a rope, which gradually neared. 'My right arm was free, and at last the precious line was in my hand. I pain fully made a bowline in the end of the rope, the fingers of my left hand being fortunately free. Slipping the noose over my right foot. I called to those above to haul away. I called to them to move the rope to the right and then to lower me. and after considerable difficulty in the dense darkness I dis covered the steward. but could not rescue him on account of a projection of ice that interfered. I told him it would be best for the men to haul me up and then send the rope down again for in. to which he agreed. I was drawn to the surface just in time. I fainted on reaching the top. The steward was hauled up next. No bones were broken, but a cut on the stew ard's face required stitching. On measuring the rope Seaman Duffy found we had fallen to the depth of seventy feet into the crevasse, a prov idential escape, for if we had fallen a short distance farther to the north, where the crevasse widened, we should have descended beyond the reach of help.

The following - he story of how the famous mi <a.u-y hymn, "From Greenlands Iey M\ountains," came to be written, as related by Heber's biog "apher, George Smith: "It was Whit sunday in the vear' 181. His father in-law, the dean of St. Asaph, was vicar of Wrexhamn and arranged to preach the missionary sermon on the day appointed. On the Saturday, when preparing. for the services, the dean asked his son-in-law to write something for them to sing in the morning. The almiost immediate result was the comiposion, as if by an in spiration, of wh.mt is still the greatest hymn in the chief missionai'y language of the race. R{etiring to a corner of the room, Heber at once wrote down the first three verses, beginning 'From Greenland's icy mountains,' when the dean called out, -What have you writ ten?' Heberread over the lines,.when the dean exclaimed, 'There, there; that will do very well.' 'No,' replied the poet; 'the sense is not complete,' and added the fourth verse. He would have gone on with a fifth, but the dean was inexorable to his request, 'Let me add another-oh, let me add another!' And the hymn was sung next morning in Wrexham church." Hidden Jewelsi. The q:'tn'ity of turquoises that lie hidden in jewelry, combined wvith oth er stones and with gold or by them selves, is so extensive in the cities of eastern Europe that it is believed that more of them are bought by gem mer~ chants in this way than are at present secured from the principal mines. This is not strange, however, for not only turquoises, but other urecious stones, are known to exist in remark ably large collections in Constantinople as well as in cities in Turkestan, Per sia and communities of southeastern Europe. They are hidden away in gin ger jars, rugs, old boxes and other re ceptacles of the household, where the owner believes there is little prospect of search being made for them. Gem collectors who' have searched for stones in this part of the world say that no one can tell how many and what valu able specimens are thus hidden away, only to be brought to light when the owner is absolutely forced to part with them through dire necessity. Undoubt edly many a gem brought from the fa mous mines of India, Egypt and Per sia has been thus secreted.-People's Magazine.

One of the peculiarities of the an ent writers on natural history sub jects was the implicit faith which they placed in the genuineness of the vari ous basilisk and dragon stories which were told to them. Brunetto, for an instance to the point, relates with all soberness that "the basilisk is the king of serpents. He wears a white crest upon his head, and such is the abun dance of his venom that the air is poisoned wherever this dire reptile passes. Trees in which he makes his home exhale such a poisonous odor that birds in flying over are so over come with it that they fanl to the ground dead. "The dragon," says the same au thor, "is the v-ery largest of serpents and inhabits especially India and Ethi opia. When he flies out of the caverns in wvhich he makes his home he fur rows the air with such violence as to make it gleam with fire. His mouth is small, and he has not the power to in flict deadly wounds with his teeth. In his taili, however, his power lies, and with it he can instantly strangle DEAD WATER. Efect of This Queer Marine Phenom. enon Lpon a Ship's Speed. One of the most cnrious marine phe nomena known to seamen is that call ed by Norwe.inn sailors "(lead water." which. wilhout anv visible cause. makes a vessel lose her speed and re fuse to answer her heim. The sailor's only definite knowledge of its origin is that it exists solely where there is a surface layer of fresh water resting upon the salt wvaters of the sea. Sev eral explanatious have been advanced by the captains of ships of the effect of dead water, the commonest of which ia that the two water layers move in dif ferent directions. The true explana tion, however, recently offered by Swe (ish navigators and verified by mathe matical calculation and direct experi ment, is that in addition to the "resist ance waves' at the surface the vessel creates a second line of subaqueous waves between the two strata of wa ter. The experiment carried out to dem onstrate the truth of this theory was an exceedingly pretty one. A large plate glass tank was first mounted on a wooden frame. The tank was then filled to a certain depth with salt wa ter, and a layer of fresh water was carefully poured on to the surface, so that two separate water layers were obtained. The salt water was blackened with liquid Chinese ink before the water layers were prepared, and in this way the different layers were made clearly visible. A boat model was then towed along the tank and a silhouette of the waves produced was obtained by plac ing a white screen at a short distance behind the tank. The waves were also photographed by flashlight, and the re sults showed conclusively that waves actually were set up at the boundary line between the two liquids. Further experiments were. made to verify the sudden los., of speed due to dead water. The boat model was drawn across the tauk and the towing string suddenly slackened when the boat was about halfway across. In cases where the tank contained salt water only the boat stopped gradually, moving some boat lengths after the towing string had been slackened. When the, tank contained a layer of fresh water resting on salt water, on the other hand, the boat slackened speed quite suddenly and moved only a very short distance. These experiments, carried out on a small scale, prove conclusively that the difficulties encountered within a dead water zone are really due to the re sistance experienced by the vessel in generating invisible waves at the fresh water salt water boundary, although in some particular cases the influence of undercurrents must also doubtless be taken into account.-New York Herald.

There is no play acting here. When one sees or reads "Hamlet" or "Macbeth" or "King Lear" one is ab isor;bed in the di stress ind suffering. but behind ltlhe :bsor)tion is the sense of detachment from real affairs. Uncon sciously we feel that we can afford to take part by imagination in the suffer ing because, after a!;, it is not real. To understand and appreciate the poetry of the Old Testament one must reieniber that it is always real. The sufferings or the joy or the faith is the experince of real men uttering forth the depths of their soul. The poetry had always the direct and prac tical purpose of unburdening real feel lng. There is no make believe here. Even in Job the apparent form of a drama is the thinnest of masks for the deep and real feelings which lie under neath. The book is not an effort of the author to imagine how such a man as Job, suffering such trials, would have felt, but rather the expression of actual distress over the hopeless plight of his people. The mental tortures under which Job writhes are therefore those of real people in real and harrowing perplexity and the overwhelming pow er of the answer of the Almighty, the direct witness of a faith which could not be daunted by the most grievous trials.-J.

The words of the "Emperor's Hymn" were writ ten by the Jesuit priest L. L. Haschka and wvere set to music by Haydn. On Jan. 28. 1797. Count von Saurau. gov ernor of Vienna, issued a deeree that "Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser" should be the Austrian national hymn, and on Feb. 12 it was by order sung in all the theaters of Vienna. In England it is familiar as the hymn tune "Aus tria." It is often sung to Newton's lines, "Glorious things of thee are spoken," and sometimes also to Kemp thorne's -Praise the Lord, ye heavens, adore him." Haydn's affection for this beautiful melody is well known. He afterward employed it for the variations in the "Kaiserquartet," op. 7, No. 3, and when he was n'ear death and too weak to stand he was carried across the room to the clavier and solemnly play ed the tune three times, according to Herr Pohl, -as his farewell to art. Wil liam G'ardiner, the Leicestershire stock ing maker and musical amateur, sent Haydn six pairs of stockings woven with the air of "Gott erhalte" and oth er melodies. The Pickwick Papers. In 1&36 William Hall of the London firm of Chapman & Hall, publishers, had in mind an ideeL for a new monthly publication in which were to be pro duced some humorous cockney sport ing plates by Robert Seymour. an art ist then in much repute. Hall called upon Dickens to talk the matter over and suggested that the latter should supply the letterpress, recounting the comic adlventures and misadventures of the im-Mary Nimrod club. As Dickens knew nothing of sport, he felt such a scheme would hamper him too much to allow of his doing justice either to himself or his publisher. To secure the unshackled freedom which he desired for his pen he said it would be better if the -plates were to arise out of the text. This view being agreed to, Dickens says, "I thought of Mr. Pickwick and wrote the first num er of the series now comprehensively knowin as~ 'The Pickwick Papers.'" cas~omIA.
