In describing the picturesque rock- bou -d Italian cities between Sorrento and Amain, in The Century, Marion Crawford says: It sometimes seems as though modern civilization tended, broadly speaking, to transfer life from the mountains to the plains, leaving be hind just what we are pleased to call romance. In other days no man, as a rule, built in plain or valley when he could possibly build upon the top of a hill. JNow no one who can dwell in the plains takes the trouble to live on the top of the mountain unless for some very particular rea son. The security that once lay in 6tone walls and iron bars is now sought in trategio position and in earthworks. There are no small, dally dangers in our time against which man barri caded himself in towers and behind iron studded doors of oak. The great perils of our age are few, far between and general. Military power once meant an agglomeration of desperate individuals devoted to a common cause, bad or good, not one of whom could find a place in the well ordered, unreasoning and mechanically obe dient ranks of a modern conqueror's army. The more we live in plains the less we can understand the hills; the more systematically we obey laws and regulations having for their ob ject the greatest good of the greatest number the less able are we to un derstand the reasoning of such men as Alaric, the great Count of Sicily, Tancred, Caesar Borgia, Gonzalvo de Cordova or Garibaldi. It is singular that while most intel ligent people undoubtedly prefer the conditions of modern civilisation for their daily life they should by pref erence also like to dream of the times when civilization was still unrealized and of lives lived in circumstances against which modern common sense revolts. These are machine made times. Those were handmade, and true art is manual, not mechanical. A Famous Ride For Kossuth'a Sake. None of the obituary writers on the late Louis Kossuth seems to have referred to an incident in his career which must always have a special interest ror Jingiisnmen. Tnis was one of the most famous record rides of ancient or modern times, per formed by Captain Charles Townley, a queen s messenger, in the interest of the Hungarian liberator. After the collapse of his cause in 1849 Kos suth and a crowd of his compatriots had fled to Turkey, from which Aus tria and' Russia were menacingly de manding their extradition. But the "great Eltchi," who was then our representative on the Golden Horn, made bold upon his own responsibil ity to back up the sultan in his re fusal to deliver up the fugitives, be- uevmg tnat faimerston, wno was then at the foreign office, would bear him out in his firm attitude of oppo sition. Knowing that life and death de pended on the speedy arrival of his approving dispatch at StambouL "Pam" selected Captain Townley to be its bearer, with instructions "not to spare himself or others" in getting to ms destination as soon as possible. Reaching Belgrade on Oct 20, Cap tain Townley there took horse, and on the morning of the 26th he rode, or rather reeled, into Pera, having covered tne distance of 820 miles in 131 hours a feat which elicited loud applause when mention was made of it In the house of commons. Pall Mall Gazette, The Only Phrase Be Knew. Sir Andrew Agnew, the last of the hereditary sheriffs of Galloway, had a strong prejudice against the French. and though often thrown into the so ciety of Frenchmen plumed himself on ms ignorance of their laneruaere. Once, while journeying to Edinburgh, Sir Andrew halted over Sunday at ms daughter's house and attended the parish church. The minister, having given out his text from the Old Testament, dis puted the correctness of the author ized translation. In 'enforcing his opinion he quoted the text in the He brew original, and the words sounded to Sir Andrew's ear as the French salutation, "Comment vous portez- vousr The sheriff writhed in his seat, and it was with the greatest difficulty that his daughter kept him from tspetuang out ms reelings. But as soon as the benediction had been nouneed Sir Andrew's jyrath expl ed. To the amusement of the con gregation he roared out: "The scoundrel! Yet I might ha' iorgren turn nad he not used the only Jbrench words I ever knew I" Youth's Companion.

Long Before the Dawn of History the Frae ttoe Wu Inn.uamra.tAd. - - The sense of smell, which at the dawn of civilization was a declining one, and since then has tended to be come less and, less of value, -would appear to have little chance of gain ing an important . position in any branch of human culture. And yet it came about that one characteristic of the i, exciting cause t of odors brought them?; into prominence in the service -of religion, and this prominence has continued in that connection up to the present day. Far back in the history of our race, at any rate long before the dawn of history r ibe apparently immaterial and, so to speak, ghostly nature of the exciting cause of the sensations of smell, led, it would seem, step by step, to the use of incense in the serv ice of the gods. When it began to be felt that the ancestral or other spirit that had to be appeased was hardly of a nature to consume the material food or drink offered to it to appease its wrath or to gain its favor, an easy step of rea soning suggested that this food or liquid would 'be more acceptable in the form of smoke or vapor. The gods had become of too spiritual a nature actually to eat the food, but they would still require some form of nourishment, and what bould be more suitable to them than the fumes of burned flesh. This is the conception that is prominent, or, at all events, survives, in the descrip tions of sacrifices in the "Iliad." where the thick clouds from the burning thighs of the slaughtered oxen and from the fat in which they were wrapped ascend to Olympus and cheer the assembled gods. It was but a step from this to the burn ing of fragrant woods and rosin to provide a less gross gratification. Moreover, by the consumption in their honor of these precious spices and fragrant gums, obtained at so much cost and trouble, another mo tive of sacrifice was satisfied. The Egyptians in the preparation of their mummies had need of a vast store of spices and aromatics. This need no doubt was the origin of their trade Vrith southern Arabia the land of Bqnt a trade which at tained to great importance under the eighteenth and nineteenth dynasties. In search of aromatics there was also a more northern trade route which must have brought them into contact with the Jews later on. The Egyptians in this respect were far in advance of the Greeks of Homer. They burned their incense in a cen ser,; using it in a similar way to the Buddhists and Christians of later days. Nineteenth Century.' Men and Women With Horns. Horny excrescences arising from the human head have not 'only oc curred in this country, but have been frequently reported by English sur geons as well as those from several parts of continental Europe. In the Imperial museum at Vienna, the British museum at London and the Vatican collection at Rome there are fine single specimens or whole collec tions of these curiosities. In an Eng lish local history ("History of Che shire") a woman is mentioned who had been afflicted with a tumor on her head for 32 years. Finally it be came greatly enlarged and two horns grew out of it after she was past 70 years old. These wonderful horns, which are each within a fraction of 11 inches long and nearly 2 inches across at the base, are now in the fa mous Lonsdale collection in the Brit ish museum. In the annals of the French acad emy there is an account of one "Pie- troleDiblo," or "Peter the Devil" who had three fully developed horns' on nis neaa two as large as those of a good sized ram, one behind each ear and one straight one, Sty inches long, growing from his forehead. St. Louis Retmhlic not For Him. 'If they make my home much more attractive and comfortable." said Mr. Glimmerton, "I shall have to leave it altogether. They have taken there lately to making sofa and chair? cushions of lovely materials and very soft and comfortable, which they scatter around on the chairs and sofas, but it seems that these are for visitors only and to look at They are not for members of the family. If I forget and sit down on one of them, I hear Mrs. Glimmerton or Miss Glimmerton say, 'Oh. don't do that !' And then they come and nat it and smooth"it and fix it over again in the chair, and it looks very invit ing again, but I know that its invi tation is not for me." New Ynrlr Sun.

" Cataract is I said to be due to the gradual deposition of oxalate of lime in the substance of the crystalline lens, at first in small spots or streaks, sometimes id one part and some times in another. The, deposit grad ually increases until it penetrates the whole of the lens, causing blindness. The remedy, then, is to remove the lens, and after its removal the pa tient needs a! substitute in the form of highly magnifying spectacles'. All that isi necessary to enable a patient to see his own cataract for himself is a piece of card and a nee dle; a visiting card will do very welL Pierce a clean round hole near the middle of the card and hold the card up to the light close to the eye, look ing preferably in the direction of a piece of blu sky. With the card near to the' eye the patient will not see the small hole pierced by the nee dle, but he will see a comparatively large faintly! illuminated field with his cataract projected upon it. He is, in fact, observing the shadow cast by his cataract on the retina at the back of his eye. With a small punc ture in the card the shadow so thrown is comparatively sharp. But with a normal eye an evenly illuminated field or clean disk will be seen. The patient may thus map down his own cataract and ieettle for himself wheth er it is extending and whether he will have an operation or not Knowledge. Rcbakes In Co art. Gambetta, prior to the overthrow of the empire, was in the act of ad dressing the court in behalf of a prisoner when suddenly he perceived that the presiding judge was visibly dozing. He paused for a minute, and then, bringing down his fist with a terrible thump on the desk in front of him, he shouted in his most reso nant and clarionlike voice, - "As I was saying before the awakening of the court !" This apostrophe was immediately punished by the indignant judge sus pending theyoung lawyer from prac ticing nis profession for a period of two months. Less energetic but equally effective was Maitre Rousse, who, having: likewise observed that the presiding magistrate was indulg ing in a nap, suddenly stopped talk ing. The prolonged silence, which lasted for four minutes, had the ef fect of Wakening the judge, and as soon as he opened his eyes Maitre Rousse made a profound bow and re sumed his speech as follows: "As I was saying, messieurs de la cour, at your last audience," laying special ; stress on the word '. last. The reproof was so delicate that ev erybody smiled, including the judge. Bow Bells. ' ' Heat From Wintry Winds. JThere ja nothing to hinder the winds of winter from operating wind wheels to impart power to dynamos, the electricity then converted into heat and this applied to heating up a mass of properly inclosed bowlders which may be located ta the base ment. This mass of stones would! hold a large amount of heat in re serve, which could be conveyed in ' pipes to be used as needed:. As the' electrical heating of the stones would 1 involve no chimney for the convey-' ing of smoke, and with it the escape ' of heat, it would be found surprising ' how little would suffice. In an ordi nary stove 80 per cent of the heat is arenerallv wasted, and huiw tma lno- i been a field for economic ingenuity to enter and reap a harvest The writer once saw a dryhouse in Car roll county, O., that had this cham ber of loose stone feature, built by a ! common tarmer, and the heat radia tion was a great success.

A Cariosity About Eclipses. The average number of total and partial eclipses in any one year is four, the maximum seven and the minimum two. . There is nothing really peculiar in this except the fact that where only two occur they are always both of the sun.
