His faculty of concent rut ion wus so great that while composing a novel on a bus his subconscious self wus set free to listen to remark* made to him and to answer them without dis turbing the real current of hi* thoughts, Jn his own house, too, he would give even more remarkable demon strations of this somnambulism. In the middle of showing a guest the pictures that lined his walla a dreaminess would conic into his voice and eyes, and his words would come slower and slower. Then, with the dull, heavy movement of a somnambulist, he turned his back on his guest and noiselessly, just like a somnambulist again, went to the door and opened and shut it behind him so quietly that not even J the cuts asleep on the armchairs i were awakened. Up the little wooden staircase went the dull, heavy clump, dump ©f his slippers, vanishing up above. Down below the visitor waited, wondering what he should do. If he scented an adventure he “stood by,” ns Cuptnin Cuttle would say, in the salon waiting for something to turn up. Otherwise he would re main gaping in astonishment. After the lapse of some minutes, sometimes a great many minutes, the clump, clump, the dull, heavy clump of the soles of his slippers was heard at the top of the stair case. It came nearer, until it min gled with tin sound of the opening door, and then Gautier walked in, Still a somnambulist, and stood in front of his guest, whose astonish ment was heightened when Ins host, with the most natural tone in the world, went on with the sentence be had broken off short when he went upstairs lie had not the least notion of having left his guest.

But when an hour later he clambered on the top of a bus his bruin already con tained some bits of a chef d’ouvre. They liml taken shape there while his guest down below was wonder ing what lie wag doing. Rarely if ever has a man had such g gift for getting out of himself. He would enlarge on his magnifi cent golden tea und breakfast serv ice, when the most humdrum china lined his shelves. And though his servants were nil treated in the most fatherly way, Gautier would tell you that he never permitted them to utter a word in his pres ence, that he only employed ne groes. “1 give my orders by signs, if they understand my signs, well and good, If they don’t, I kick them into the Bosporus.’’ And there is no doubt that he actually heard the waves closing over the head of a black slave. He actually meant what lie said. The street outside was actually for him the Bosporus.—St, James’ Gazette. Thankfulne**.

She’s by herself.\ The boy hung ou until he was dismissed by a nega tive nod. Then he approached the elderly woman. “You buy one,\ he said. “No, I can’t read,” said the wo man, w ith a smile. “I’m a German.” Then the young man was ap proached again. “You kin read. Go ahead and buy one. You kin read it to her.” “No; my eyes are bad. I can’t see very well.” But the newsboy was determined to make a sale. “Well, buy one for your girl,” indicating the younger woman. “She’s got pretty eyes!” And, needless to say, he made the sale.—Indianapolis News. Curious 8torag* of Hay. An English traveler through Kashmir found in practice there a novel method of putting fodder up for winter use. The country lies in a valley among the Himalayas. The chief industry of the people consists in raising fine wool and in making this into fabrics which have carried the name of the country all over the world. A curious custom in some places is that of hanging quantities of bay up among the branches of trees. Why it was done was more than I could guess till my guide said that in winter the snow lies five and six yards in depth and that the supplies of hay, meant for camel eopards, are then easily reached by the flocks of sheep which abound there: t Wcrrwi and Jrffer**n.

At Solovetsk, in the Russian gov ernment of Archangel, is the most remarkable monastery in the world. The monastery of Solovetsk is in closed on every side by a wall of granite bowlders which measures nearly a mile in circumference. The monastery itself is very strong ly fortified, being supported by round and square towers about thirty feet in height, with walls twenty feet in thickness. The mon astery consists in reality of six churches, which are completely filled with statues of all kinds and precious stones. Upon the walls and the towers surrounding these churches are mounted huge guns, which in the time of the Crimean war were directed against the Brit ish White sea squadron. Etiquette. “Etiquette” is a French word which originally meant a label in dicating the price or quality, the English “ticket,” and in old French was usually specialized to mean a soldier's billet. The phrase “that’s the ticket” shows the change to the present meaning of manners accord ing to code.
