A Jadah Beqjamin Un( i!Her*vhief. A rare and interesting scu venir of the civil war is now in the posSia&itin of R. S. Merrill, a landscape artist It is nothing more than a red bandanna handkerchief, but it has an interesting history. Judah P. Benjamin was a iiouisianian and a stanch supporter of the lost cause. The Confederate government sent him to England on an important mission. While in that country he had manufactured one dozen red bandanna handkerchiefs, and these upon his return he distributed personally, as a memento, to 12 Confederate officers. These handkerchiefs were of the finest india silk, one yard square. The body is of red, and worked in black on its surface appeared portraits of Davis, Beauregard, Lee, Jackson, Morgan, Slidell and Johnston, encircled with wreaths of southern laurel and a border of ferns and cotton plants on a white ground. No two wreaths are similar, and the workmanship is artistic.

Mr. Merrill 82 years ago was a private in Company K, First Wisconsin cavalry, and during Wilson's raid in April, 1866. he picked up this handkerchief in the courthouse at Montgomery, Ala. It was incased in a silken bag of gray and had evidently been lost by some Confederate general in the hasty retreat that day. The handkerchief has been recently framed and adorns the parlor of Mr. Merrill's home.—Minneapolis Journal.

Court Etiquette.

In Baron Rothschild's book of anecdotes he tells some curious tales of the extremely stringent rules of etiquette which prevailed at the French court in the reign of Louis XVX Marie Antoinette christened the Comtesse de Noailles "Mme. Etiquette." Once, when she fell from a donkey in her private grounds, she jumped to her feet and cried out, laughing, "Go and fetch Mme. de Noailles she will tell us what is prescribed for a queen of France when she falls off a donkey." One cold winter night, when the queen was undressing, the maid was handing her the chemise de nuit when the lady in waiting came in, to whom, as being of superior rank, the garment had to be given over. She could not touch it, however, until she had removed her gloves, and before that operation had been performed the Duchesse d'Orleans, a princess of the blood, turned up, and after her the Comtesse de Provence, who was of higher rank still, so that the chemise had to be handed from one to the other while the queen stood waiting and shivering. At last, unable to contain herself any longer, she exclaimed: "It is odious! What a nuisance!"

"It's a Leel"

In The Atlantio Mrs. Lathrop, in "Some Memories of Hawthorne," her father, tells an anecdote which she heard when a child from a Mr. Bennock, a frequent visitor of the family during the Liverpool consulate of her father.

A Scotchman, at an inn, was walking disconsolately about the parlor while dinner was being prepared. A distinguished traveler —Dickens, perhaps— was dashing off a letter at the center table, describing the weather and some of the odd fellows he had observed in his travels. "And," he wrote, "there is in the room at the present moment a long, lank, redheaded, empty brained ninoompoop, who looks as if he had not eaten a square meal for a month and is stamping about for his dinner. Now he approaches me as I sit writing, and I hear his step pause behind my chair. The fool is actually looking over my shoulder and reading these words"—

A torrent of Scotch burst forth right here: "It's a lee, sir—it's a lee! I never read a worrd that yer wrort!"

Time to Change. 'V

The late Lord Granville was fond of telling a story at his own expense. When the late shah of Persia visited London a few years ago, Lord Granville was the British foreign minister, and' at the suggestion of the queen spoke to the Persian monarch about the advisability of having fewer executions in Persia. The shah replied that so long as capital crimes were committed capital punishment must exist, but that there were really not many executions in Persia. In fact, he added, the last execution that had taken place before his departure was at the personal request of the British minister at Teheran. Lord Granville said he dropped the subject and began to talk about the weather.

Birds That Stole a Nest*

Nature tells a tale of a pair of rooks, evidently young birds, that strove in vain to build a nest. The wind each time blew the foundations down while the rooks, which fly far for nest matenuis instead of taking those close at hand, were. away. At last, despairing of building a home by legitimate means, they fell upon a completed nest of another pair while the owne^p were absent, tore it to pioccs and built a nest foundation that would stand in the wind. Then they made a superstructure in the clumsy and inexperienced way that young birds always da
