A writer says; In the Museum at Pom.
pei are preserved the most horrible and
pathetic witnesses of the last days of the
Inflated city. When the workmen were
digging in 1868, they struck into small
cavity, the nature Of which was, Of course
a mystery to them. Without breaking
further into it, they poured plaster o.
Paris down the crevices that were already
opened, and as soon as the plaster had
hardened, the crust of lava was carefully
removed, and 10! the form of human
being in his death struggle, perfectly pre-
served! Buried in the lava that hardened
about him, his body had crumbled to dust
and left this wonderful mould. Several
bodies have thus been reproduced-one OF
them with the features perfectly preserved,
so that there is still some expression in the
face. Some parts Of the skeleton are i'm
bedded in the plaster; and two female
bodies found lying near each other are
called mother and daughter. There is
nothing at Pompeii more touching than
the despair depicted in the attitude of this
group. 1t was pleasant to get out into
the narrow streets, where the sun was
glazing, and there we sought to forget the
horrors of the museum,

Major IIarbord, British officer, has
lost his commission for cheating at cards.
A club of gentlemen, all of whom were
intimately known to each other, were in
the habit of playing baccarat at Nice.
Major Harbord having become acqualnt-
ed with one OF two of them, was allowed
to join their set. His plan then was as
follows: After losing all the money in his
trousers pocket he would say, 81 must
get out my pocketbook, and putting his
hand into his breast-pocket take out the
book, open it and take out note, which
he would stake, at the same time laying
the book, as if by accident. on the pack
of cards Underneath the pocketbook
which was a large one, was concealed a
card Ga nine spoD, and when the stakes
were made the major had merely to lift
up his pocketbook, turn up the card he
had placed beneath it, and pocket his win
nings The fraud was discovered by a
waiter Who while selling pack OF cards,
noticed that there seemed to be more
than tifty-two in the pack, and on looking
found several extra nine spots. Suspicion
at once fell on Major Harbord, as the only
stranger. He was searched and twenty
seven mines were found on him. Who
talks of the heather Chinee now?

precision on some tender portion of your body
where the little rascal is pleasantly grazing
