Hindu Juggling.
The Hindu Jugglers and acrobats are
the most skillful In the world. One of
the latest stories told of them is about
' a performer who went through many
wonderful feats perched on the top of
a single bamboo stick about fifteen
feet in height. The top of the stick
was tied to a girdle around his waist,
and a leg rest was provided by a cush
ion a few feet down the pole. Perch
ed on this slender stick he hopped and
danced about in the liveliest way, ac
companied by the tapping of a drum.
It would be considered a skillful feat
to walk abSut with ease on a pair of
stilts fifteen feet in height, but this
Hindu showed a marvelous power of
equilibrium on a single stick. He did
other things even more wonderful. For
example, he balanced a light stick on
his nose and a heavy one on his chin
and then threw the heavy one Into the
air with his head and caught it on the
end of a light one. While balancing
the two sticks thus, end on end, ho
made one revolve in one direction and
the other in the opposite direction.
“Grey” and "Gray." .
What is the difference, if any, be
tween “grey” and “gray,” aside from
the matter of spelling?
The editor of the Oxford Dictionary
some years ago made extended inquiry
as to usage and found that opinions in
London varied. Replies to his ques
tions showed that in Great Britain the
form grey is the more frequent in use.
despite the authority of Dr. Johnson
and later lexicographers, who give the
preference to gray. Many correspond
ents said that they used the two forms
with a difference of meaning or appli
cation. the distinction most generally
recognized being that grey denotes a
more delicate or lighter tint than gray.
Others considered the difference to be
that gray is a warmer color or that it
has a mixture of red or brown. An
other group field that grey has more of
sentiment, gray more of color, which
muy mean that grey is a suggestion
rather than a positive outline.—New
York Press.
Twice Declined.
The Invitation list of the governor
general of Canada is made out strictly
In accordance with precedent, but is
not kept up to date always, the aid
who has to send the invitations out—
generally an Englishman or a Scotch
man—not always being au courant
with changes on the list. The late Sir
Antoine Dorion, chief Justice of Que
bec, was once invited to some func
tion, as was proper, but I July Dorion.
who was dead, was invited likewise.
Sir Antoine accepted for himself, but
declined for her ladyship, on the
ground that she was in the cemetery.
The next year, however, the same mis
take was made, so the old judge wrote
back to the aid-de-camp in waiting:
“Sir Antoine Dorion accepts, etc.,
but, her ladyship being still in St.
Anne’s cemetery. Sir Antoine is com
pelled again to decline the invitation
for her.”
A New Game.
William is the only son of a pious
minister, and, though he is only three
and a half years of age, his father
considers it quite time he learned
properly to observe grace on coming
to the table. His parents have more
than once endeavored to explain to
him the reasons for his so doing, but
the little boy regards it as no more
than an amusing game.
I The other afternoon his older sister
made another attempt to interest him
in this duty. All were seated at din
ner, and on the first words of the
grace William’s small head dropped
In his hands in apparent reverence.
His sister, secretly pleased with her
success, stole a glance at him, when,
to' the consternation of the family, he
sprang up, shouting gleefully:
“Oh, Sis, you’re it! I saw you peep!”
—Woman’s Home Companion.
Barred Them Out.
A proprietor of a cotton mill in Eng
land who is something of a philoso
pher posted up on the factory gates
the following notice:
“No cigars or good looking men ad
mitted!”
When asked for an explanation he
said: “I’ll tell you. The one will set
a flame agoing among my cottons and
the other among the girls. I won't ad
mit such inflammable and dangerous
things into my establishment at any
risk!”
The Ink That Homer Used.
Ink of various hues was used by the
ancient Homans, that of a purple tint
being considered the exclusive fluid
for the execution of all. royal writings,
as it was distinctively the royal color.
It is said that Homer’s works were
written in letters of gold on a roll 120
feet In length, formed of the Intestines
of serpents, but we are left In Igno
rance as to the method of preparing
this ink.
