It is said that a distaste for ruffs was lirst created so far back as 1013. when a woman named Turner wore them on her trial for the murder by poison of Sir Thomas Overbury. The French revolution of 17HO much Influ- enced Krltlsli fashion, and the pictur- esque cocked bat and ruflles then gave way generally to round hats and small cuffs.

The period of their final disuse can- not be easily determined, as men of old fashioned or eccentric habits have worn milled shirt fronts within quite recent memory similar to those which, according to I'lanche's "History of British Costume." originated in the seventeenth century.

lously pay homage to the sun, unJ in a learned journal, entitled L'Bcota Nouvelle, one of tliein lmiiiituiu* that the ran should bo especially honored ut Christmas.

"Christmas should be regarded as a festival for the benefit of humanity." j he say-:. "In this way we can once! more heroine United with the Aryans, i our ancestors, who worshiped lire and | who celebrated the birth of the divine constellation, who Is the father of light, of heat and of life."

He then suggests that the following prayer lie said daily:

"O thou who eausest lies to vanish, who driven! away the evil Influence of prodigies, of malignant predictions, of dreams and of wicked apparitions (> thou who brlngest to naught the plots of the wicked, to thee we pray, Lord Sun, since thou art the light of the world."

An Orchid Tragedy. Perhaps Madagascar has claimed

more orchid hunters' lives and been the scene of more revolting acts of cruelty than any other place. Koine years ago u (icrinaii orchid fancier, while seeking sonic specimens in the forests of this Island, was captured by sonic of tho native priests, who. utter covering him with oil. burned him alive. Another collector who was seized by some of the sain.- m tests was allowed to choose between h ing burned alive or himself setting t>re ii- some fngo s on which lay anotli r prisoner, also an orchid collector, and thus sav- ing his own lil'.'.
