AN ODD PROCESSION.
Tiny WorniM Tlinl Trmel In u LoiiK
Ki-rpontlllio ."Uiimm.
The sclnru. of the genus tlpulx, a
tiny wonnllke crcnturo which Is found
In tho forests of Norway nnd Hungary
during the month of July or early in
August, gather In huge numbers pre
paratory to migrating In search of food
or for a change of conditions. When
Betting out on tills Journey, they stick
themselves together by means of some
cltitinous matter and form a huge bop
pentllko mass, often reaching a length
of between forty and llfty feet and sev-1
oral inches in thickness. As the sclara
is only on rn average of about three
thirty-seconds of nil inch in leagth,
with no appreciable breadth whatever,
tho number rciiulred to form a continu- i
ous line of the olze above mentioned Is
Incalculable.
Their pace Is of course very slow,
and upon meeting nil obstacle, such as
a stick or stone, they either writhe over
or around It, sometimes breaking Into
two bodies for the pin pose. A ecle
brated French naturalist says that If
the rear poitiou of this Biiakellke pro- ,
cession bo brought into contact with
the front part the Insects will keep
moving round In that circle for hours,
never seeming to realise thnt they nre
getting no farther on their Journey. If
the portions bo broken in two, the pro
cession will unite In a short time. When
the peasant meets one ot these proces
sions, he will lay some obstacle In front
of It. If it passes over it. It is a good
omen.
The .liipanvito tli'ci Don.
The .laps have a quaint standard of
perfection b which they assess canine
merits. '1 litis the sleeve dog has or
ought ti hue live cardinal "points"
tho"lmtlciJl head," in which the color
marking i ('presents a butterlly, the
white blaze on nose and forehead
forming the body, nnd the rest of the
face and ears the wings; the sacred
"V" found in the wedge shape of the
blaze running up the forehead; in tho
center of this sacred V an isolnted cir
cle of coloi, which typtiles the "bump
of knowledge;" the "vulture feet" re
quiring ample feathering, as the fring
ing hair Is technically called, and lastly
the tightly curled, profusely feathered
tall symbolical of the sacred llower of
Japan, the chrysanthemum.

This story regarding a converted bar
barian Is told in the English papers;
A negro clergyman was entertained nt
tea by the president of a college. The
guest, who came from west Africa, re
tailed some particulars of his early
life, when a lady asked him how he
became a Christian. "The story of
Jezebel cotnerted me," he answered.
"You know, we are told the dogs did
not touch tho palms of her ' :uda. Well,
that convinced me of the 'ruth of the
narrative, for we never ' the palms
of tho hands In my count. . They are
too bitter.''
Allltnile nnd VoIccn.
Generally speaking, races living at
high altitudes havo weaker nnd more
highly pitched voices than those living
in regions where the supply of oxygen
Is more plentiful. Thus In America
among the Indians living on the pla
teau between tho ranges of the Andes
nt an elevation of from 10,000 to 14,000
feot the men havo voices like women
nnd women like children, and their
staging Is a shrill monotone.

PUNS AND PROMOTIONS.

Cntton Milvilio owed bis M.iif pro
motion to a pun, mi'' a I.iihuii Jour
nal. When the late liar I of Dudley,
who knew Mr. Molvllto aufU'ntly to
remember that bin I'hrlstiau naire iras

reeelved a letter containing only the

PerlmpB the earliest Instance of oe
clcAlAAtlctil promotion cu by n pun It
that of a citrute nnmeil .luaeph, who
was prompted by Swift to tak" tlila

ste) of his HticccAsivu promotmiKi in
great part to hla facKUnmnetM ru 1

Joit. When he was conaiiUed as huh!
of Dm ham by Oeorge II. as tt lb At

hndst thou faith na a grain of inn itard

so understand and appreciate "the Joke

Aprcipnj of puns, promotion nnd tho
see of Voile, bete is a good lory i.f a
living given by an archbishop of York
In reward for an Impertinent personal
pun. The archbishop, Sir William
Dawes, entertained bis clergy at din
ner shortly .vf ler the deatli of his wife,
Mary, who appears to have been a reg
ular Mrs. Proudle at once to bis grace
and to the diocese. At dinner the arch
bishop apologised, with a sigh, for
things not being In the apple pic older
that prevniled when lm dear, dead
wife, Mary, was alive. Being himself an
inveterate punster, he added, with a
sad shake of his bend, "f-'he, lndccd.was
Mnro Paeiflcuni!" A curate who knew
too well what a tartar the deceased
lady was icjoined, "Aye, my lord, but
she was llr.st Mare MortiitiiiU" and was
absolutely anil uu.nedlately rewarded
by the archbishop for this lmportiuent
pun with a living of f00 a your.
