A Touch of Vanity. On Nov. 25—St. Catherine’s day— French girls who have passed their twenty-fifth birthday and are unmarried wear a little cap made of fine muslin, the symbol of inaidhood. As the day approaches the millinery shops show these caps in great quantities, and their manufacture by young girls Is always accompanied by jokes at the expense of old maids; but, strange to relate, these caps, because they are liecoming to all, are worn on St Catherine's day by young girls as well as by old maids.

THE MULE IN THE JUG.
An Arab Proverb and the Legend That Gave It Birth. Who can atliriu that the mule entered the jug? This proverb Is frequently quoted to show that, though one may conscientiously believe in a thing which may in extravagant in itself. It Is better n • to repeat it from fear of being qis. lielleve L It arises from the following Arabic legend: An Arab who denied the existence <<f g” 1111 '‘“‘'e bought a mule ami took it home. When perform! ;.g his evening ablutions, he saw the mule enter a jug. and this so s red him that he ran shouting to the neighbors j.ud told them what he had u. They, thinking him mad, endeavored to appease him, hut all lu vain. He v -Iferated more and more, so that the authorities sent him to the madh ise. When the doctor came to see him. he repeated the account of what he h.\ 1 seen, whereupon the doctor ordered him to he detained. He continued upon each visit of the doctor to repeat Ids statement until his friends succeeded in persuading him that if he w'-Le l to regain ids freedom he must rc a'., 'lids he did, and the doctor set him : liberty, to the great joy of his r..: .il; an.l friends. On making Ids ablulioiis as before he again saw the mu . . this time peeping out of the Jug, but on this occasion he contented himself wi ll remarking to the mule: “Oh, yes, 1 see you well enough, hut who would believe me? And I have had en >r i of the madhouse.” Needless to say that the genii to avenge themsc fur ids disbelief In them had ti ust’- , ed one of themselves into a iaiii - sud as such entered the Jug.— Cairo (Egypt!

Tl at pinkish bit <>f granite, weighing thirty tons, standing seven and onehalf feet above its rocky base, being ten feet broad and eight feet thick, came from the far north, carried in tin- ivsistk -s ley arms of the glacier that rv. pt over the continent down to tins latitude, marking Its path by deposit inv great bowlders as it moved and leaving scratches on the Arm rocks beneath, from the sliding, grinding of g mite that set tl’-d to its base and were pushed along ns it moved. This same bowlder left its mark on the b, re face of the rooky hill to the! north of it, in which lies the crocodile! P" il. There the scratches are visible! 1" . pointing to where the bowlder, stm,-: and telling the story of part of its travels. t M i. ri ihe melting ice departed from the areal Mock of granite, it left it standing through the ages a rocking stone so delicately poised that a pressure of fifty pounds exerted on its most northern angle causes its apex to sway north and south about two inches.—New York Herald.

She had heard nothing of the j news when she was awakened about j •1 o’clm-k in the morning by a violent! knocking at (lie door of her house. FI-. nnliy Mrs. Wuinwright rose and looked out of the window, asking what was j the inaticr. A voice called out, “Are, you the wife of Lieutenant Command-1 er Wuinwright?” “Yes. What do you , want?” “The Maine lias been totally ' destroyed. We are reporters and wish for some information about Mr. Wain-! wright.” Only this and nothing more. The shock caused the poor lady to fall in a dead faint, from which she did not rally for several hours, and, fortun ef- for her, it was then known her husband was not among the lost.
