When Johann Straus* took his orchestra to Russia he had some un usual experiences not generally vouchsafed to those who live out side an autocratic government. One day ho received the czarina’s commands to play before her at her summer resort and was told on ar riving there that he would have to rehearse his program three times before the performance. He begged to know the reason for that, but no explanation was given him. These were her majesty’s orders, and he could only comply. Still, his as tonishment grew when he saw dur ing the three rehearsals an empty court carriage drawn by a pair of horses slowly going back and forth in front of his oil liestra. Throughout the final perform ance the mysterions act was ex plained. The empress, having a sharp attack of gout, was obliged to recline in the ea riage, her foot ou a cushion, while the concert took place, and the object of rehearsal lull) been to accustom the horses to a full string bund lest they should take fright and bolt with her. At the end of the performance an exalted dignitary of the court bade Strauss follow him to a splen did grand piano, saying: “Now be good enough to play me all the newest Vienna music.” Although he was pretty fatigued by his three rehearsals und slate performance, Strauss thought it ex pedient to comply, but after he had played continuously for over an iiour he stopped, saying, “I presume that will be sufficient?” “I am not at all tired,” coolly re joined his excellency. “But 1 ami” said Strauss aud rose from the instrument.

"I got out of the drug business because something happened that nearly turned my hair gray,” said the serious faced man. “I used to sleep in the store, and often 1 had to answer night calls. One night I was awakened from a deep sleep by somebody persistently ringing the door bell. "I found a small boy at the door, and he handed me a prescription. 1 was so sleepy that I could hardly see, but 1 filled the prescription, the boy paid me and hastened away. “When I went to replace the bot tles I bail taken from the shelves my eyes were open a little w’ider than in the opening stages of my wakefulness, and I was horrified to find that instead of taking dowu the bottle of tincture of orange [ had used the next bottle, a deadly poison. “i flew out of the street door and looked up and down the street. Tho boy bad disappeared. I bad never seen him before and did not know for whom the medicine was. I wanted to rush off to the doctor and find out who the patient was, but that I decided would be useless, as it would be too late to do any good. “I entered the store and paced up and down the llosr. My hair stfood on end. I saw my victim in ay the agony of aconite poisoning. I saw the pale face of death. I saw the family vowing vengeance. “My heart thumped furiously as 1 heard hastening footsteps. I peer ed through the window and saw the boy who had brought the prescrip tion. The bottle was gone. My only hope vanished. With a trem bling hand 1 opened the door, pre pared to hear the worst. “The lad stood hesitating. Tears were in his eyes. I dared not speak. “T—please, mister,’ he stam mered, ‘1 ran so fast I fell and broke the bottle, and I ain’t got any more money.’ “My heart leaped into my throat. 1 felt like giving a yell of joy as L leaped forward and pulled that boy into the store. 1 wanted to hug and kiss him. When I had master ed my emotion I gave him another bottle of medicine which 1 most cheerfully paid for out of my own pocket, and into the bargain I gave him the biggest handful of expen sive candy lie ever had.” New York Times. Valuable Hairpin*. Hairpins have been elaborated as a means of decoration since the earliest times. Particularly beauti ful is the delicacy of their work manship, two of tiie finest speci mens being Ihe gold pins which were found at Sulamis in Cyprus and nro now in the British museum. Even more handsome were the Sax on pins of a later date, with their shank of brass, head of gold and embellishment of garneta and pearls. There were, too, the larger sort of pins so conspicuously and frequently mentioned in the Bible. The instrument driven by Jael through the temple of Sisera was probably a tent pin, while Delilah fastened the web on Samson’s hair with a pin or batten.—London Mail. Gambling Among tha Ancient*. Gambling with dice and cards has prevailed from the earliest times. We do not read of gambling houses in the classic literature of Greece, but there can be no doubt that the vice was very widely practiced in private houses.
