her hands resting on the bars, was the
little child tier long golden hair at

" 'Why do you jxrmit your daughter
to gi so near the lions?' the khedive uskt-d

" 'Oh.' replied the keeper, they are so
accustomed to her they would not harm
her.
" 'Then oen the door and put her in
side, said the khedive.
"My blood froze at the command, for

could not. 1 was unable even to move.
The keejer, with the submissiveuess of
those who know their livea will pay for

with his eyes an appeal for mercy But,
seeing none in the kliedive's face, he
kissed the little one tenderly, lifted her
up. ojened the door, placed her inside
and. as the door swung to. he turned his
face away and groaned. The little one,
though she did not stir, seemed not
afraid
"The lions appeared surprised, and as
the largest and fiercest rose and walked
toward her 1 thought 1 sliould choke.
Happily the father did not see the beast.
"The khedive alone was unmoved, and
stood gazing at the scene calmly and
with the curious smile I had so often
seen play ujion his features when watch
ing the dance of a ballet. The lion went
up to the child, suielled of her, looked at
her for fully half a minute, then lay
down at her feet and beat the floor with
his tail. Another lion approached. The
first one gave an ominous growl and the
second lion went back. The others
crouched low, and each second 1 ex

This continued. I think, about five min

lamb into the cage through another

lamb and obeyed. As he did so. every
lion sprang upon the Iamb.
Take out the child,' the khedive
commanded, and scarce had the words

HakfM In London.
There are 14,000 bakers in London, of
whom 5.000 are foreigners, mostly Ger
mans. Foremen bakers get from five
dollars to eight dollars a week, second
hands from four dollars to five dollars a
week, third hands from two dollars to
three dollars a week The hours of labor
range from twelve to fifteen hours a day
and on Saturdays from twenty to twen
ty-three hours. Most of the small bakers
act as their own foremen.
The majority of the bakehouses are
miserable underground cellars, overrun
with roaches, mice and other vermin.
Tl 11 Ml ... .
xue cenars are so in ventilated and so
unhealthy that the bakers are subject to
a number of special diseases, all of
which may be communicated to the con
sumers of the bread they make, for they
are mostly diseases of the skin, and the
bakers in these dens, as a rule, work
stark naked from their waists up. and
there is generally no accommodation of
any kind for washing except in the
kneading tubs. New York Recorder.
The rrescfeiice of t'nie.
The prescience of fame is very infre
quent. The village gazes in wonder at
the return of the famous man who was
born on the farm under the hill, and
whose latent greatness nobody suspect
ed; while the youth who printed verses
in the corner of the county paper, and
drew the fascinated glances of palpita
ting maidens in the meeting house, and
seemed to the farmers to have associated
himself at once with Shakespeare and
Tupper and the great literary or "littery
folks, never emerges from the poet's de
partment in the paper in which uncon
sciously and forever he has been cor
nered. It would be a grim Puritan jest
if that department had been nam?d from
the comer of the famous dead in West
minster abley. George William Cur
