A SKELETON IN THE CLOSET.

Tragic Story" of the Origin of the Familiar Expression. "A skeleton in the cupboard" is a familiar expression which has a tragic origin. The story is that a certain widow in England had a son in India, but owing to his failing health his mother became very anxious for his return. One day she received a letter from him containing the strange request that she should find some one who had no care or trouble and ask her to make six shirts for him. Anxious to accede to his wishes, the mother hunted long and finally found a ludy who apparently fulfilled the condition. The lady listened in silence to the request and then invited the widow into her bedroom, and there she opened a cupboard, which contained a human skeleton. "Madam," she said, "I endeavor to keep my trouble to myself, but every night. my husband compels me to kiss that skeleton, which was once his rival, whom he killed in a duel many years ago. Think you that I am hap' py?" Then the mother wrote to her son of the fruitless errand, and his reply was: "I knew when 1 gave you the commission that every (me had his cares, and you, mother, must have yours. Know, theu, that I am condemned to death and can never return to England. Mother, mother, there is a skeleton in every house!"

Ysaye's Lost "Strad." Of fiddles lost, stolen or strayed the most notable instance within recent times is the disappearance of the violin belonging to the great player Ysaye. It was a Stradivarius, made in 1732, and one of the violins shown in the loan collection of musical instruments at South Kensington in 1SS5. It was the practice of Ysaye, as of every other great player, to carry with him two violins, so that in case of accident he might have one to fall back upon. The stolen one was left unattended in the artist's room below the orchestra. It vanished, and in consequence of the hue and cry that resulted the instrument has never come to light again. Nor can the possessor of such a violin bring it to light while the present generation of experts is alive, for infallibly it would be recognized. St. James' Gazette.

The Aged Hare. About 500 years ago there lived in Agshelin, a little town in Asia Minor, an imam, or village' parson, the Khoja Nasr-ed-Din Effendi. Harry Charles Lukach says that one day a camel passed along the street in which the Khoja lived, and one of the Khoja's neighbors who had never seen a camel before ran to ask him what this strange beast might be. "Don't you know what this is?" said tile Khoja, who also had never seen a camel, but would not betray his ignorance. "That is a hare a thousand years old." Pall Mall Gaeette.
