Climbing Cp the RI~i. I am not certain whether it pays or not to go up on the Rigi. 'When the weather is clear you can sea three moun tain ranges all snow capped, 12 or 18 lakes, 17 towns and cities, 40 Tillages, 00 odd glaciers, and this in a circumference of about 300 miles. Glorious, I admit, but oh! the discomfort of the descent again! It takes louger to come down than it does to go up, and passengers are jerked, jerked, jerked from apes to base so rudely that life is no longer a pleasure ere ,we liave reached Vitznau again. Out on such cogwheel contrivances' for hu man torture, say I; the old fashioned dil- jigences may have been slow and cruel, (but they wero Pullmans alongside of tangled cars. ■■Rr years ago I climbed the IUgL [| mere child’s play afte# doing Hiatus, .and I bare not grown ^moh older since I sold I would climb it Aa and I did so day before yesterday. ^Pwas a warm after noon. Not a bream of air, and tho sun shining full on mo for half tbo distance. By half-past 7 o’clock I had reached the kulin or highest point, and there I threw myself on the earth and saw the sun go down. Then X had my feet and legs well rubbed with liniment, meanwhile eating dinner, and then I went to bed to be called early enough to see that samo sun rise again. Tho Rigi Kulm is tho best place I know of to observe the splen did ruddy glow that comes over tho great Alpino peaks at the rising and setting of the sun. Unfortunately tlieso effects at •light do not last long, but they are mar velously beautiful." Night before last as the sun went down it became first yel low, then dark red and in on instant everything touched by its dying rays as sumed tho samo ruddy tint. This lasted for a couplosjf minutes after the sun had ^entirely disappeared, and jthen suddenly ■everything turned black and lol tbo stars were shining.—Henry Haynio In New Orleans Picayune. No Chances Against Gamblers. In 1840 that famous magician, Robert Houdin, was requested by thejjudgo of instruction of the tribunal of the Seine to examine and verify the genuineness of ISO packs of cords which had been seized in the possession of u man who enjoyed any tiling but a savory reputation. A peculiarity of the cards was that they were perfectly white, and it was impos sible to detect tho least proof of their having been tampered with or to find tho slightest mark upon them. Over his work Houdin spent a fortnight, now in specting them with the unaided eye, again by means of superior lens. Every individual card of tho 150 packs was in spected again and again. He was giving up his work- in despair, when, of u sud den, close to the corner of ono of them, •Be perceived a dullish spot. Looking at it closer tho spot disappeared, but holding it_at -o distance from htm the spot re appeared. Following up this clew, he" ascertained that on every card there ex isted a spot which, according to its posi tion on tho card, indicated tho suit and the valua of tho card, v. Ho pursued the subject further, for the purpose of ascertaining , whether a person who plays for amusement only has tho slightest chance of winning with a person who plays only to live. Tho conclusion ho arrived at was that tliero is no such supposed favorable chance, and that tho amount of tho non-profes sional's losses is limited only by tho mag nanimity of tho professional.—Boston Herald. Favorlto Beverages lit Persia. The great beverago in Persia is sher bet, which is plentifully supplied, and of which there are many varieties—from tho bowl of water 'with a Kjueezo of lemon to the clear, concentrated juice of ohy sort of fruit to which water is added to dilute it. The preparation of sherbet, which is dono_with tlio greatest care, is a very important point in so thirsty a country os Persia, and one to which much tinio is devoted,'. It may bo-cither expressed from tho jofeo of fruit freshly gathered or from tho preserved extract of pomegranates, cherries or lemons mixed with sugar and submitted to a certain degree of heat to preservo it for winter consumption. Another sherbet much drank is called guzang ebben. It is made from tho honey of the tamarisk tree. This honey is not the work of tho bee, but is made by a small insect living under tho leaves of the shrub. During tho months of August and September tho insect is col lected and tho honey is preserved. When used for sherbet it is mixed with vinegar, and, although not so delicious os that made from fruit, it makes an ex cellent beverage. Only among the rich and fashionable are glasses used. InAJJ other cases sher bet is served in cbiiSkhowls and drank from deep wooden-spfms carved in-peor- VYoutli’s Companion. jsvery w;.y you see one or more “lost dog” advertisements in the newspapers.
