The children of the Romans in prehistoric times used to put their pennies into savings. banks just as the children of the Yankees do to day. In 1886, when Prof. Thomas Wilson of the Smithsonian Insti tution, was wandering about Ostia, the seaport of ancient borne, he found a group of peasants exca vating. They had dug out of the sand a number of pots and Jars that bad been. buried for ages, and one of them had found a child's savings bank, which contained 145 silver coins issued by the emperors of Rome between the years 200 and 18 B. C. As none of the later-date were found it is to be assumed that some child lost this bank shortly before the Christian era, and it was covered for nineteen centuries by the encroaching sand. J " Ostia is sixteen miles from Rome, at the mouth of the Tiber, and dates back to the time of the Em peror Ancus Marcius, who estab lished salt works there. It grew with the growth of Rome, and in the days of Caesar was a seaport of importance, with 80,000 inhabi tants or more; but the debris brought down by the Tiber filled up the harbor and drove away the shipping, and subsequent centuries have transformed a busy commer cial center into a little fishing vil lage of between 200 and 300 inhab itants. Tourists go there out of curiosity and antiquarians are most always digging in the sand that has filled the ruins. The little savings bank was al most perfect when it was uncover ed, but the peasant who found it broke it open to get the coins with in. Prof. Wilson found most of the pieces, however, and has been able to put it together. It consist ed of a single piece of pottery about three inches long and two and one-half inches wide, with a silt in the top through which the money was dropped. Among the coins was a "dena rius," or tribute money which the Jews had to pay to the Romans. This coin is valued at about 16 cents, and was shown to Christ with the question, 'tis is lawful to give tribute to Caesar or not?" In the bank also was the sample of the "widow's mite," referred to in Mark xii., 42, and Luke xii., 6. It was a Jewish coin, valued at 2J mills. The piece of money which Peter found in the mouth of the fish (Matthews xvii., 27) to pay the temple tribute for Christ and him self with a half shekel, officially known as a "stacsr," and was worth about 25 cents. There is a sample of this also, and of the shekel which was coined by Simon Macca beus, an Assyrian king, who was one of the first to coin money. There are also in the collection coins of Herod, the Emperor Tibe rius and other rulers mentioned in and identified with Scripture his tory. W. E. Curtis in Chicago Record. ; Why Ho Was Silent. A physician describes a remark able case of a patient's confidence in his medical adviser: "When I was a student in London I had a patient, an Irishman, with a bro ken leg. When the plaster band age was removed and a lighter one put in its place I noticed that one of the pins went in with great diffi culty and I could not understand it. A week afterward, on remov ing this pin, I found it had stuck bard and fast, and I was forced to remove it with the forceps. What wasmy astonishment to find that the pin had been run through the skin twice, instead of through the cloth, y i. . 44 Why. Pat,' said I 4didn't you know that pin was sticking in you?" "To be sure I did,' replied Pat, but I thought you knowed your business, so I hilt me tongue.' " TrrTTA TO Women aa weU as, men W JtLLJ lO are made miserable by , kidner and bladder trou- I f We- !'

Miss Sallie Knight was born April 14, 1825, and departed this life at her home near Guilford Col-' lege station June 23, 1899, aged seventy-four years, two months and nine days. , . . . ,. ' j She professed religion and joined the Methodist church and had lived; a devoted and faithful christian life. We have seen in her , strong will, gentle disposition and cheer ful submission to the will of four merciful Heavenly Father, a great' faith and much patience in her af flictions, which were great and in describable. By patient continua tion in well-doing and suffering she sought for glory, honor, im mortality and eternaL life. She was an invalid and a great sufferer for thirty years. She had been unable to work for six years bad not been out of the house but twice in four years, had not walked a step in two years and had been entirely helpless for six months; and in all this affliction she Was never known to murmer or com plain. Her solicitude and help for others in distress almost caused her to lose sight of her own suffer ings. She bad every attention that the untiring devotion of her sister, Jennette, could give her, but death claimed her and she was ready, and now rests from her afflictions in the home of the redeemed. May the lesson of patient sub mission and Christian resignation she taught be a rich benediction to all who knew her. Funeral ser vices were conducted at New Gar den in the presence of a large num ber of sympathizing friends, where she now sleeps to await the resur rection day. A. G. Kirkman. Direct Evidence. A boy was summoned to testify in a case of assault in which one man hii another with a shovel A host of witnesses had been called, who "beat about the bush" in the most tedious and provoking man ner. This annoyed the lawyer for the prosecution who broke out as follows: j "Here, boy, we've been going around and around this case for hours, and yet have no evidence to convict the prisoner. Now, sir,'' he savagely continued, "do you hear me? I want you to come to the direct point. Did you see the blow struck. "Yee, sir." "Ah, ha," chuckled the lawyer, rubbing his hand, "we have some thing to ' work upon. Here, j my good lad, take this cane," (hand ing him his walking stick.) j "If you saw the blow struck, you must know how it was given. "Yes. sir, I " "Now, then, no words about it I tell you," thundered the interro gator, "I'm .the complainant and you are the prisoner.; Now, Just raise the stick and show the court." The bewildered lad did "raise the stick," and the next moment it came down upon the bald head of the astonished lawyer, and sent him staggering to his seat. , "That's the way it was done, sir," said the boy, amid the shrieks of laughter of the whole court room. The discomfited counsel, with a ghastly attempt to smile, said that he had done with the wit ness the evidence was direct. He Did Not Say It. Everybody knows-the man who is careful never to say "No" ab ruptly in answer to a question. No" is a hard word, but one may sometimes oe maae riaicuious ov a reluctance to utter it. j - A certain man who had th habit was once met by two ladies whe had been discussing the pecul iarity, and one of them said that she was positive she could make him say, "Oh, no," flatly. So she addressed him thus: j "Let me see, Mr. Smith, you! are a widower, are you not?" j 44 As much a widower, madam," he answered, with a polite inclina tion of his head, "as it is possible for a man to be who was never married." I T The lady had to own herself beaten. M J He Knew Not the Word. "Did vour father brine: vou? asked a teacher in a West Virginia mountain Sunday-school of a small new pupil." "Me what?" "Your father." "Nome." 44Did you come alone?" "Nome." "Who came with you? "Me pap. , Richmond, Ya June 10, 1S9$. GOOSX GKE ASK LlSIMIXT COGaXKNSBOKO.C.

" ' ' ' ; : m IS IT RIGHT For an Editor to Recommend Patent Medicines? . Erom Sylvan Valley News, Bre vard, N. C. : It may be a question whether the editor or a newspaper has the right to publicly recommend any of the various proprietary medicines which flood the market, yet as a preventive of suffering we feel it a duty to say a good word for Cham berlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar rhoea Remedy. We have known and used this medicine in our fam ily for twenty years and have al ways found it reliable. In many cases a dose of this remedy would save hours of suffering while a physician is awaited. We do not believe in depending implicitly on any medicine for a cure, but we do believe that if a bottle of Chamber lain's Diarrhoea Remedy were kept on hand and administered at the inception of an attack much suffer ing might be avoided and in very many cases the presence of a phy sician would not be required. At least this has been our experience during the past twenty years. For sale by C. E. Hoi toff. j One Woman's Wisdom. He had proposed to the idol of his heart, but things failed to come his way.
