Thomas O. Allen, Jr., and William I,. Sachtlebcn, the young American students who made a bicycle tour around the world, describe their experiences in Persia in the Century.

X., unwittingly but mortally offended the touchy old gentleman, and one million florins is the price of
his excessive amiability.
The wealthy Count Y., paid a visit to Haron X. last autumn, and immediately after his arrival explained that he had come to do wh at he had never done In his life before—to shoot grouse. He held the opinion that, being an excellent shot with a revolver,he must likewise he a good marksman with a gun, and he had, in fact, laid a wager that he would not return empty handed from his first day’s shooting. Count Y. was quite serious in all this, and honestly believed he could accomplish Ids desire with the greatest ease. Haron X., however, knew better, and considering that tlie count was not only somewhat deaf, hut likewise very nearsighted, kindly resolved within himself to faoilliate matters as much as
possible.

The details you may work out at your leisure. Make no blunder.” Ferdinand said only “H’m!” in his master’s presence, but he used very wild words later on.and not hitting upon any likely idea himself, he called on his assistant, Franz, and instructed
him to mature a plan.
Now, Franz is a man of many resources. and ills name has become proverbial in sporting circles in Austria as a wily Ulysses. A few hours later he unfolded a project to his senior which caused the latter to split ids sides with laughter. Franz was to hunt up a daring poacher, who had been twice wounded while trespassing on these very estates, and to ask him to appear at a certain place Thursday with some recently shot birds and to drop one or two after each of the count's shots. The plan was agreed to, the poacher promised to be invisibly on the spot, and the various stations at which he should successively drop the grouse were determined upon. At length the morning dawned and count and baron were early on the field, accompanied by tho faithful gamekeepers, who looked as reserved and sad as undertakers. “I don’t see anything about here,” murmured the count after a time. “It’s true I am somewhat nearsighted, hut—” “Look there, your excellency! Look there! You arc in luck!" shouted thc head gai—pci at the t-ip o. 111, voiee, endeavoring to look tho while as if he were only whispering the information into the sensitive ear of his master’s
guest.
His excellency became flurried, took out his monocle, fixed the spot pointed out to him, and said: “Well, I don’t sec Oh, thgt black mass, do you mean.*' "Yes, your excellency. There arc half a dozen there if there is one. Now is the time, your excellency, to fire.” Tho count shouldered his gun, to the mortal terror of the baron, who feared he should he called to his last account before that day’s shooting would l>e done; then he shut one eye and pulled the trigger.

NEEDED THE DIALECT.
Why thc <fcrnian Could Not Tell a Story W«Ue A party of three or four sat in a North side cafe the other evening studying German through their favorite brew and enlivening the time with stories. Two of the party were excellent story tellers, and kept the ball rolling in tune with the “balls." The usual cafe crowd filled the place. At the nearest table among others sat a good-natured German, who laughed heartily every time one of the storytellers, a bright actor of Irish extraction, told a yarn, especially when it was on the German nationality. The Irishman saw this and finally asked the appreciative German’s auditor to have a beer, an invitation that was at once accepted. Finally pressed to tell a story ou his own behalf he b,gam one very awkwardly, but he broke down with the apology: “Effor 1 ust had your dialick 1 could tell him goot!" And, says the Chicago Times, he hadn't the slightest idea why everybudy laughed so uproariously, and why the Irishman cheerfully paid for every tiling.

On* Wife Will Not Again Trouble Anybody for a Spool of Silk. One summer the wife of a Chicago man went to one of the resorts. At the end of a week she found that her black silk had given out, so she wrote her husband to “find a F.pool of it in the lower drawer of the bureau” and send it on. Thc dutiful husband spent three solid hours one hot day before he found the missing spool. Of course, it was not where his wife had said it was. After he had changed his saturated linen the man went down and sent the spool by registered mail to his wife. That night it struck him as absurd that she should have put him to all that trouble, and he resolved to teach her a lesson. lie thought that with a little effort she might have found soue- silk at the summer resort that would have answered her purpose. Well, he bought u gross of spool silk and put it in a drawer of his desk. The next time she left town she found a spool of black silk under her plate at the place where she took her first meal, and ever since then she has been followed by a spool of silk, even to Europe. Wherever she may stop she finds the spool at her i plate or on herdresser. She has learned the lesson.
come more decided thc longer tho stones are exposed to the air. Some of the more knowing dealers discovered that by subjecting the strawtinted diamonds to a bath of certain acids the objectionable color was removed and the gems become pure white. A number of diamonds so treated were sold in Paris and Berlin, and brought higher prices than they would if they had retained their origi-
nal color.
After exposure to the action of the air for a certain time the original color returns, but by that time they have passed out of the dealer's hands. The fraud was soon found out by the trade, and they now guard against impositions of such a character by means of various tests. Of these the most generally used are the hot water bath or friction. If a dyed stone be left in hot water a few minutes it resumes its original line; or. if the gem l>e rubbed sharply on a towel, or even ou the coat sleeve, its normal color can be detected. These tests are simple and efficacious and are iu daily use.

AN EGYPTIAN CUSTOM.
It .Mystified Herodotus, Hut Modern Investigation Fully Fxplalns It. More than one thousand years ago Herodotus observed a remarkable custom in Egypt, says Prof. Drummond. At a certain season of the year, says the Washington Post, the Egyptians went into the desert, cut off branches from tlie wild palm, and, bringing them back to their gardens, waved them over the flowers of the date palm. Why they performed this ceremony they did not know, hut they knew that if they neglected it the date crop would be poor or wholly lost. Herodotus offers the quaint explananation that along with these branches there came from tlie desert certain flies possessed of a "vivifie virtue,” which somehow lent an exuberant fertility to the dates. But the true rationale to thc incantation is now explained. Prim trees, like human things, are male and female. The garden plants, the date hearers, were females, the desert plants were males, and the waving of the brandies over the females meant the transference of the fertilizing pollen from one to the other.
