ON SHAKING HANDS. Tb* Defensive Reason \V by ||p Right Was First Istl Did you ever stop to think about the custom of shaking bands and tvouuer why it is that we always shake the right hand? Probably you have never thought about it at all or if you have yon think that the ouly reason for using your right hand is that you were taught uot to use your left one, says the Buffalo Courier, in reality this custom, now so common. Is a very an cient one, and it originated in this way: In the days when people were not so peaeeuble as they now are and when each man settled his quarrels in his own way every tuan carried a sword or dagger to defend himself. This sword was worn on the left side, where the right hand could quickly grasp M for use in time of peril. Therefore when a man wished to Auythat he was frieudly he extended hand, which would lie clasped iltmiJicr'rt rigiit linnd If tie. too. WMBP-uee. Thus each could be sure that the other would not draw his sword. With tlie dawn of more peaceful times the custom lost its one time pur pose, but it still retains its original meaning—to show friendship. .Vtint>i>h-ro of Ceylon. When visitors enter Horticultural hall, in Philadelphia, they punt. The heavy air, stagnant and warm and moist, oppresses their lungs. But the tropical plants in the hall would die without this kind of air, and a man said of it the other day: "It is very much like the air of Ceylon. Ceylon has just such a heat, and just such a crushing, prostrating humidity as this. l>o you know that every European house out there has among it* serv ants a clothes Hirer —a man whose sole duty it ts to air and beat the I clothes, which otherwise would be come covered with a thick while coat [>f mildew in n few hours? I took a hundred and fifty dollar camera with lie to Ceylon. The dealer had war ranted the wood to be perfectly sea soned, but 1 had not been In the island a week .before my camera had warped and fallen apart. Tbo Ceylonese, tn their horrible climate, are healthy be cause they eat no meat and drink only water.”—Philadelphia Itecord. Revtreucc For the Heart!. Former reverence for the beard Is well illustrated by the story told of Kir Thomas More, who was beheaded for denying the supremacy of floury VIII. His usual cheerfulness did uot forsake him even on the scaffold. "Help me up,” he aaid to one standing by: “for my coming down let me shift for myself.” As he Intel his head on the block he begged ths executioner watt u moment while he cnrefnlly placed his beard out of reach of the ax. for, he said, ”it hath not commit ted treason,” which reminds one of the story of Simon Lord Lovat, who the day before his execution on Tower hill bade the operator who shaved him be cautious not to cut his throat, as such an accident would cause disap pointment to the gaping crowd on ths taionow.—English Magazine. At a Quaker Wedding- No clergyman la needed nt n Quaker wedding because the happy principals pcriUrra the ceremony themselves. This Is the formula repeated by tho bridegroom at a r. cent wedding, ••Friends, here in the presence of tho Lord and It) the divine presence 1 take this, my friend, iidith Mary Hanbury Aggs, to be my wife, promising in the ft ar of Ibe Lord and with divine as sistance to be her faithful and loving husband.” The bride repeated a simi lar declaration, the certificate of mar riage was signed by witnesses, short addresses from Scriptural texts were made, prayers were offered, and the ceremony was ended.—Exchange. Japanese Fans. Though the Japanese folded fan is a common object in this country, little is known of its manufacture. One of the largest factories is at Kioto, where an average of 3,000.00 b fans yearly arc turned out. Spain is the principal cus tomer for the Kioto fans, Italy com ing next in Importance and then the United States and Mexico. The fans are not at all easy to manufacture, as eight different workmen are required to make a single frame, while before the fan is finished it has to pass through the hands of ten people. Hard on the Father. A little girl three years old who Is very fond of music has a father who cannot distinguish one tune from an other. However, she Is always urging him to sing. He was trying his best to please her with a hjiun one day and flattered himself that he was do ing very well. Suddenly the little ty rant turned upon him and demanded: ‘‘Why don’t you sing, daddy?

It is related of the late Bret Harte that be was onqe traveling through a mountainous region by coaefe. His seat was u&xt to the driver'*, and It oc curred to him to eatertalg that func tionary and incidentally Ul£ fellow passengers by narrating a series of balr raising episodes In the coaching history of tpe wild west. With mischievous Ingenuity he cal culated each tale so cleverly that its bloodcurdling climax was reached at # particularly bad yt <# road, thus forcing present peril to heighten the effect of imagined adventure. At first the adventures werßiot lmagned; they •were true stories, but tbs widening eyes and breathless Interest of his au dience was too great a temptation, and he sooixgpegan to Improvise hts own fictitious hero, Tuba Bill, and other wondrous whips of equai power were pressed into service; Indians, land slides, holdups, blizzards, broken bridges, forest tires and runaways were 1 prlnkled In to taste, and the result was a marvelous conglomerate of dime novel, oplc, racing anuais uud local his torr. Even tfie slosvjy stirred perceptions of the touring BlSton at length recog nized that this was no common story teller, and when Mr. Harts left ttie coach speculation ran rife among those who remained. The driver let them all have their guess, and then, turning on Ids perch to confront his load, he tri umphantly decided tbc matter: "'E may think e's traveling hlucog, but ’e ain't! I knows Tm, f do! 'E don’t look much like ’ls picture, but ’e cawn’t l>e nobody else. 'E’s Buffalo Bill, gentlemen, that’s ’o ’e la!” Too Louie. An old lady of his flock once called upou Dr. Gill wifti a grievance.

The doctor not onljf listened patient ly, but handed over the offending white bands to be operated upon. When she had cut them to her satisfaction and returned the bibs, it .was the doctor’s turn. ’’Now,” said ho, "you must do me a good turn also.” “Tea, that 1 will, doctor.

Farieiyh t , Oopyiiflhf, li, n, b;i A. S. Jh,jtbn The English government had been I appealed to by Russia to make Rug I laud too hot to hold the nihilists v. i, j were hutching plats against the l ; :v a the czar, and Detective Frazer hioß been employed to take the prelim ar.i : stops. He Was tu locate the i-U'i" ! and spot the individuals comprising it. j and when all was ready he would call for assistance and draw a full uot. Frazer was the rigid man in the right place. He was a human bloodhound by Instinct. He was without mercy of pity for a criminal, lie was ambi tious, zealous and untiring. If any public officer in London could locale , the bloodthirsty theorists who were i causing the czar so milch anxiety, It was Frazer. He ,as n man of won- i dcrful intuition, aim lie was trained in | the art of running down shadows till j he found them, llesli and blm and. The government did nut lot it be come publicly known that it wa - mak ing a®move against the refugee con spirators, and Frazer took care that no otic should know of his tub sion. Lie went on a still hunt for three mouths, and during that time he covered every district la London and became fa mil tar with every suburb. Luck uud in tuition guided hlui aright. One nlgnt he called in the aid of the police and made u descent on a house, Logging eight of the men he wanted. The pa pers did not call them nihilists, lint counterfeiters, for the papers were not told of the bombs, infernal machines and treasonable literature captured with them. There were ten nihilists in tin'group, and Frazer had secured but eight of them The eight were given up to liussia to become Siberian exiles, but the other two were left behind to avenge them. That they would seek his death Frazer fully realized and prepared himself for the struggle. If they had to do with a entity, aggres sive man who knew no fear, lie had to ! do with two cunning, vindictive men who had sworn to take his life and | would dare everything to accomplish | their object. Their identity was un- j known to him, us they had been out of the country while he was working j up his case, while it was more than J probable that they knew him by sight. They also had the advantage of. hav ing friends among the criminal classes who would aid them In various ways. Having concluded liis hi hors for tlic English government, t}ie English gov ernment wanted nothing more of De tective Frazer. Were it known that lie had received orders from the cabinet there was no telling what public build ing might be blown up in revenge. An infernal machine in the house of par liament or a bomb thrown through a window of Somerset House would awaken all England In an hour, and questions might be "asked that the gov- ■ eminent would Hud it embarrassing to answer. While Knglahd rind Russia have long been on the most friendly terms, there are plenty of Englishmen, aud many of them people of Influence, who sym pathise with (lie struggle for freedom In Russia and tiigue that the czar’s oh stlnacy lias driven his subjects to adopt extreme measures. The govern ment would have been glad to hear that Frazer was going off to Australia or America for a long vacation,' and it o hinted, but he refused to go. He knew he had been marked down by the two nihilists, and pride prevented him from running away. While they hunt ed for him he would bunt for them. It should be a battle to the death. He made an Immediate move, and perhaps It was with a feeling of ex ultation that lie discovered that the enemy was just us prompt. He was In a low danceiiousc in disguise when the point of a knife thrust at his heart was burled in the memorandum book iu his pocket, and the would lie sin got away. Frazer was not. injured, but his nerves tvere a bit shaken. In leaving the street behind him a brick, dropped from a third story window, missed Ills head by mi inch The nexl ,day h.<Lcalled other officers to ids aid smJHKi-b a house of doubtful charm ’ Swi’ all the persons pulled in detained beyond n day. Fnnmhnt day on, for months and monthrazor was hunting .over Lon don. He 'vas never Frazer as bis com rades knew him. He had a dozen dif ferent disguises, and if lie was a "toft” one day he was a coslermonger the next. Here and llu-re he-picked tip a clew until it came to pass that he knew the lodgings of his foeg, and would have recognized their faces on the street. Than they suddenly dis appeared, and within a week they’ had taken a leaf out of ins book and adopt ed disguises. A scenting mendicant ac costed him one day and sought to stall him in the back. he walked the streets one night a bullet whizzed by his head. A box was left at liis lodg ings wbic-b proved to lie an Infernal machine, aud in the. crowd at .the en trance of u theater an attempt was made to assassinate him. It was a game of life and death well played, but though the detective realized that the odds’ were against him he would not give up. He shifted bis lodgings, had the press announce that he had left England and went into the slums as an ‘evangelist. Affer two weeks he spotted one of *his fin'd!,‘ but before he could make a move Me was assaulted and laid up for a fortnight He was traced to bis new lodgings, and a bomb was used to blow out the front of the house. H? was detektnined to give the uibil !sts no rest until he had them In limbo, and on the other hand anew “center” appeared and solemn oaths were taken to run Frazer to his death before car rying out any other work. He was warned by anonymous letters of what was being done ami what was inevita ble unless lie drew off, but each new development only made him the more determined. lie felt now that it was a ■would al Ids ! same i men nd he char ’d Ids killed .other, :hrow was ,is leg I Kings in uud For nut It Ui l- ' < rra.iuini he had not done u t ! ”b! ,, 'iLf‘dqpni subordi nates Win I i)i eg up,breads for him as in ; '-a Nnc afternoon, as lie sat in a small iShl v ‘’“vJii;,r ha ing so licited alms in a middle aged man of th.'/ilrese ing of a clergyman turned in from the street and sat down beside him. At first: the detective ruse up in an excited way, as if to lice; then he sat down and seqn -1 perfectly helpless. Ills face grew pale, his eyes dilated, and, though he made an effort to speak, ills words stuck in his throat. All tills was witnessed by two other strollers In the vicinity. A ntn-oglrl who was wheeling a child up and down Hie walk said that Ids lips were blue and Ids chin quivering. She heard tlie supposed clergyman address him several times, hut there was no an swer. Tlie sun was shilling, the peo ple a 1 ion 1 him were laughing, and it was a summer's day, but the disguised detective shook and shuddered. It could only lie said .afterward that the chill of death was upon him and that ids nervous system had been suddenly upset by the unexpected appearance of one of Ids foes. By and by the clergyman went away ami left Frazer silting there bolt up right, ids hands clasped and ids eyes stilling into vacancy. It was ten min utes before a policeman came along and had ids attention attracted by the pallor of the mail’s face. He laid Ids hand on the tramp’s shoulder and asked Idm if he were 111, and the body toppled over sideways on the bench. The disguised Frazer liad been stall lied to the heart by a small dagger In the hands of the clergyman, and the man who htul been marked down had been removed at last. What was called “the park mystery” created a good deal of tail: and wonder, and It was announced that, the best talent of Scot land Yard lmd been put on the ease. No arrests were ever made, however, and to tlds day ft is a mystery to tlie English public why the murder should have been committed. MORE NEW ARRIVALS.
