OF OAI?I?AT?EE ?VOLUTION AND INFLUENCE OF THE NEWSPAPER CARTOON. Ttto Ancient Greek*, Bomus and Egyptians Used Grotesque Pletore? to Emphasise Their Satire ?The . Kiatftteeath Century Craxe. The story is told of an abbe of the seventeenth century who was as de formed in figure as he was ridiculous in dress, and as sensitive about his physical deformity as he was vain of his eccentric attire, that while serving mass one morning he observed a smile of contempt on the face of one of the cocrtiers present and determined to avenge himself by serving a process upon "him for appearance in court the following day. The offender, M, de L?sson by name, knowing that things would go hard with him unless he could show some reason for bis mirth, made a hasty sketch of the. hunchback abbe, exag gerating in size the six black caps and | the waistcoats in which he was wont appear, and when he was solemnly :ed to show cause for his unseemly and indignity to the holy church suddenly displayed before his judges the caricature of the abbe as his "ex cuse." The likeness was so excellent and the cartoon so grotesque that the entire court fell to laughing* and the accused was liberated without a repri : mand. This is the first authentic case of the power of the cartoon in a hall, of jus tice, but it illustrates the power of the pencil in depicting the follies of the foolish and the affectations of the arti ficial. There is no telling when the art of caricature began. There are a number of grotesques that have-come down to ns from earliest Egyptian times. The Greeks employed pictures to emphasize their satire, and so did the Romans. A3 through the middle ages there were numberless examples of "grotesque ries" which, curiously enough, were used in, enforcing the doctrines of the church by means of satirizing the deviL But the eighteenth century- was the . "heyday of the cartoon. Beginning in France and overrunning caturists carried' everything before it, and it is safe to say that we read the history of the times with Clearer vision and with more accuracy of detail for the mirror which caricaturists held up to reflect the striking peculiarities of the men and events passing before it Gautier mentions a Spanish cartoon-:| isi, Francisco Gaya y Lucienies, ? mix ture of Rembrandt Watteau and Ra- j b?

It has been reserved for America, however, .to. bring forth, a new race of | caricaturists, which for lack of a better "title may be called the personal car toonists, men who seize upon the char acteristics of an individual and so ex aggerate them that the subjects of the cartoons are known by the most promi nent features in their physical; mental >4? mora I makeup^ True there was one man Jn London a hundred years ago.

CJiilray was a close observer of f eppie and events. He would sit in his publisher's window and -watch the fopft of the coart as they passed and fasten in bis memory every feature by which a man would be recognized by ?t?s. acquaintances.

FOOLED HIS SUPERIOR. Astonished Pasha and a Lieuten ant Who Won Promotion. Kassim Pasba when minister of war for Egypt was very particular in re gard to the personal appearance of his officers and issued stringent orders that they should never appear un shaven in public. One day he met upon the street a lieutenant who had bearded the pasha and disregarded his orders. "To what regiment do you be long?" demanded the indignant minis ter. "To the- regiment, at Abas seuh," replied the frightened lieuten ant. "Get into my carriage at on?e so that I can carry you to the encamp ment and have you publicly punished," was the stern command which follow ! ed. s The young man obeyed, and the twain rode along gloomily enough for seme time, when the pasha stopped his carriage and entered an office where he would be detained for some time on business. Seizing the opportunity, the culprit sprang, from the vehicle, darted into a neighboring barber's stall and regained his post before the return of his jailer minus his beard. For the remainder of the route the officer bur ied his face in his hands and seemed the picture of apprehension. Abasseuh was reached at last, and all the officers were assembled to wit ness the degradation of their comrade, who all the while kept well in the rear of his chief. "Come forward, you son of a dog!" cried the irate pasha, when there stepped before him an officer with a face as clean as a baby's and a look, of the most supreme innocence. His excellency gave one look of blank astonishment and then, with an ap preciative smile breaking over his war worn features, turned to the assembled officers and. said, "Here, gentlemen, your old minister is fool, and your young lieutenant is a captain." THE SIZE OF FAIRIES. Cr?ateles Who Live In the Poetry of the Elizabethan Agre. Readers of Elizabethan poetry are familiar with fairies who fashion coats from a bat's wing, fans from those of butterflies, coverlets from the skins of snakes, wage war..with spiders and make expeditions on the backs of flies. Writers bave commonly assumed that such minuteness, was the product of poetic' fancy, which reduced these spir its to a size much below that admitted' by popular belief, but this is an error. Folklore supplies us with abundant examples of fairies who can carry no more than a single straw, who emerge Jrom a . molehill and make a thread bridge in order to traverse a keyhole. Concordant; is the testimony of lan guage, as when the foxglove passes for r?eing a fairy cap.-- ;? If a size so reduced cannot allow his torical ;mterpretatioa, still; less -does 'etimo'logy explain the qualities of these fays. ;wfco-|iT power do not differ from their larger cousins. Queen Mab, no larger than the jewel of a ring, is,y et charged, -with the functions of a birth goddess. The least fairy can steal a .bride ?r a baby; tenuity is of less con sequence, since any tiny sprite can at will assume gigantic proportions. The fairies who in one canton are repre sented as dwarfish in.the next may be described as gigantic The contrast, which cannot be ac counted for ?s arising from historical memories, may be easily explained by the early modes of conceiving nature. In prehistoric conception a mountain might pass for a large man, a river for a tall one, while the inmates of petty hillocks would naturally be imagined as possessing a form corresponding to the narrow limits of their habitants.? International Monthly. Passing of Indispensables. Only those who have to go to the depths of long disused trunks when moving time necessitates renovation and the sifting of belongings realize how much of what one clings to as In dispensable becomes absolutely useless when laid by for a time. Pictures prized for one reason or another, sou venirs that fail to recall anything but inconvenience, letters that one couldn't bear to burn, odds and ends that one was sure to want all become as trash in the repose of the stored trunk and are sacrificed without a qualm when moving time comes around to make room for other things that will last their little day and then find the same end.?New I'crk Press. Seventh -Century Tfeedlework. ...?-Before the end of the seventh century needlework was carried to great per fection in convents, where it was used for the embellishment of the church and the decoration of priestly robes. Artists did not think it beneath their : ?Ugn?ty to trace-the ipatterns used for embroidery in-their natural colors. A certain religious lady, wishing to em broider a sacerdotal vestment, asked no less c personage than St Dunstan, then a young man, but already noted for his artistic" skill and taste, to draw the .flowers- and figures which she after ward worked in gold thread. How He Proposed. He wished to. propose to the girl of Iiis, chotee,-'but he was nervous. First he thought of,-the old romantic style: "By. my.'.nalidoip, fair one, I would fain take thee for my bride. Say thou w??t be mine, and ?re the''sun gilds the turrets of yonder castie the friar shall unite us m holy bonds." In the face of the prevalent rage for dramas cf the ojden style, this form seemed satisfactory. Being an eminent ly modern young' man, however," he thought again and determined to test the theatrical mode. But just at that moment the. fair Mary tripped into the room, and he blurted out: -"Er? Mary?er?will you?er?well"? But Mary was far from being con trary. "0? that's all right George," said she, "I know what you mean. Why, of course, f will. Papa will be delighted."?New York Herald. CHINESE WASTE PAPER. Every Scrap With a Printed Charac ter Upon It Im Sacred. You will never fiuci upon the street or in the rubbish heap a scrap of pa per with Chinese characters written or printed upon it. An intelligent Chinaman, questioned as to the rea son, explained the matter in this way: "Melican man never tears up and tlows in stleet his Bible or hymnbook. Chinee liting all same to Chinaman as Melican man's Bible." Then he still further elucidated the j mystery by leading the way to the cel lar of a Race street house, in which, plied up before a gigantic furnace, were bundles of paper and sacks of let ters and newspapers printed in Chi nese hieroglyphics Interpreted into plain English the old Chinaman's story was that the orien tals regarded the written characters as so sacred that this furnace was es pecially set apart after being blessed ) by the priests, for the incineration of all Chinese letters and documents. So sacred indeed was the Chinese writing regarded by the orientals that the most compromising letters of the ! highbinders and the private corre spondence of families were left with confidence in the care of the furnace ? attendant it being perfectly well j known that he would net risk his im : mortal soul by committing the deadly sin of prying into correspondence com I mitted to his care to be given to the flames. Nor does the oriental regard the Chi nese writing as safe from the hands of the infidel even when every scrap of it has been reduced to ashes. After the paper has been burned the ashes are carefully collected, and when enough has accumulated to make, a load they are shipped on hoard a boat belonging to the Chinese Merchants' company, by which society all such matters are managed, and taken to sea, where they are scattered over the surface of the ocean. To the Chinaman it is horrifying to see the white man's newspapers used for wrapping purposes, his letters scattered around the streets to be walked on and his old books flung around when read as though of no more sacredness than old boots. A letter, an envelope, the printed slips extolling the virtues of preserved gin ger or the characters that advertise a laundry for sale become, after their usefulness has passed, as sacred as the gilded ornaments that add to the glory of the joss. One man is employed in Chinatown to collect the waste paper. He calls at the stores and the rooms and gathers it up with the utmost care, tying it in sacks so that not a shred shall escape. With his sacred burden he goes to the furnace room and hands the sacks to the important personage in charge there, who stows it away ready for the next burning day. Twice a week the furnace is lighted and the sacks of pa per solemnly committed to, the flames, with many incantations.?Philadelphia Record. THE CATFISH ZONE. And the Or?j?in of the Philadelphia Habit of Catfish and Waffies. While pessimists have been denounc ing the 'extension cf the pie belt through the United Stales and the en largement of the saloratus biscuit dis trict, they have been entirely oblivious of the extraordinary development of the catfish zone. This mischievous dweller of the pool is known to the small boy and the rustic angler under many names?in one place as a sucker, in another a bullhead, in a third a wolf fish and, most outrageous of all. in northern Mississippi as a shad. But its own only genuine title is catfish. The name is derived from the fact that when the creature is raised from the water it omits a grunting protest which poetical fishermen have pronounced like the purring of a family cat Philadelphia produced t\J* catfish habit For two centuries the animal was looked at as something which might be eaten to prevent starvation until one fine day a thrifty Quaker found that the catfish would eat boiled cornmeal and that this simple food not only fattened the eater, but changed the color of its belly from white to yellow. He perceived the pecuniary value of the discovery and established a catfish farm in which he fattened the fishes which he caught elsewhere and in due ser.rcz sold them to the Phila delphia markets. A Quakeress scon after that discov ered that the old fashioned waffle, slightly salted and covered with melt ed butter, made an irresistible accesso ry to the fish when well fried. This started the catfish and wcifBes, for which the City- of Brotherly Love has -ever "since been fainoxis' Th? - habit spread like an epidemic, aud. like the star of empire; its way was westward. So far as is known the United States government has no record of catfish and.waifles east of the Delaware river, .but-smarting at Philadelphia a distinct catfish zone runs westward, terminat ing at Denver, reaching as far north as Minneapolis and St. Paul and as far south as Mobile and New Orleans. The catfish is said to possess medicinal vir tue. It is mildly anaesthetic, soporific and anrispasmodic?New York Post A Genios.
