Where Idols Are Eaten
At certain seasons In some parts of
India It Is the duty of every devout
person to eat a special sort of confec
tlonerj Every confectioner in Octo
ber for Instance has a pole about six
feet high at his door and to this Is
nailed a great hook about a foot long
and thick in proportion On one side
of this is a brisk fire with a huge
earthen pan on it Before the pan a
man may be seen sitting for nobody
stands when he can sit with a kind of
wooden ladle and with this he briskly
stirs a quantity of bubbling black
looking sugar till it becomes quite
tough He then scrapes It together
and puts it on a piece of board to cool
a little and then getting up and dex
terously throwing It on the large hook
he begins to pull out the tough sub
stance He draws it out to the length
of four or five feet at a time and throws
it back and elongates it again and so
he manipulates it till the mass becomes
as white as snow This composition so
treated is manufactured in ail sorts of
sacred forms figures of little idols and
gods and is eagerly bought for con

Ink Froze on the Pen
The winter of 1G83 4 In Europe still
holds its place as one of the most se
vere and remarkable on record So
tremendous was the cold that trees
split asunder with deafening reports
The strangest sight of all was on the
Thames Here on more than a ft
thickness of Ice a thoroughgoing t 1
of streets was erected There re
tailors shops butchers shops tobac
conists printers and Indeed many oth
er businesses all being carried on as if
they had stood there for years
Writing anywhere but near a large
Are was impossible as the ink froze In
pot and on the pen whole barrels of
liquids were frozen solid and wine was
sold In one pound blocks New bread
on being taken out of the oven would
immediately stiffen and become solid
There were hundreds of deaths from
the cold and throughout the frost the
poor suffered miserably Pearsons

Little Great Men
A Chinese who had long studied the
works of Confucius who knew the
characters of 14000 words and could
read a great part of every book that
came in his way once took it into his
head to travel into Europe Upon his
arrival at Amsterdam his passion for
letters naturally led him to a book
sellers shop and as he could speak a
little Dutch he civilly asked the book
seller for the works of the immortal
Xixofou The bookseller assured him
he had never heard the book mention
ed before Alas cried our traveler
to what purpose then has he fasted
to death to gain a renown which has
never traveled beyond the precincts of
China There Is scarce a village In
Europe and not one university that Is
not thus furnished with its little great
men Oliver Goldsmith
First American Play
The first play written by an Ameri
can produced in this country according
to the Philadelphia Public Ledger was
the tragedy The Prince of Parthia
by Thomas Godfrey which was
brought out at the Southwark theater
in the Quaker City in April 17G7 by
Lewis naliams company the first or
ganization of players to visit Phila
delphia Godfrew was an ambitious
young poet who died at an early age
His play was above mediocrity and an
important part of the volume of his
works published in 17G5
A Uae For His Obituary
A well meaning and conscientious
editor on being shown by the man
most interested that the death of the
commandant was falsely reported in
his paper apologized profusely and of
fered to make it all right
Well print a correction at once he
said
Well said the man who wasnt
dead perhaps it would be better to let
it stand Ill show it to my friends
when they want to borrow money
Painful Etiquette
The royal court of France used to be
a great place for etiquette Louis XIV
once caugljt a severe cold owing to
the fact that on his arising from his
bed one coid morning the lord of the
chamber whose duty it was to hand
him his shirt happened to be absent
Not one of the numerous courtiers
present had the courage to trangress
etiquette by handing the garment to
the shivering monarch London Scrap
