Then and Now.

ONE of the most interesting features of
the excavations in the buried city of Pom
peii is the discovery of many homely do
mestic articles, of which we have counter
parts 1t is astonishing how many things
in common use now were in use then.
Here you will see almost every kitchen
utensil-portable cOoking-stoves, jelly
cake and butter mOlds in the imitation
of birds and bowers, pots, kettles, crooks,
dishes, cups and saucers, spoons, knives
and forks, dIppers, skimmers, sauce-pans,
frying pans, lamps, lamp-stands, flesh
hooks, braziers for charcoal-in word,
pretty much every kitchen, diningroOm,
or chamber article found in modern use
entered into the economy of the daily life
of Roman antiquity. All the articles of
lady's toilet, including jewelry of all kinds,
gold and silver ornaments, corals and
precious stones, were found in the houses
of Pompeii Taken from the retail shops
were steelyards, balances, weights and
measures. From DOCTORS office were re
covered full set Of surgical Instruments,
including "pulikinsn for extracting
teeth, and uepans for drilling holes in the
skull. There are any number of shoe
maker, tailor, carpenter and blacksmith
tools, and, indeed, implements of almost
every present mechanical operation. The
collection of articles taken from the dead
city is surprising revelation TO everyone,
showing that the ancients invented and
perfected 10000 implements and articles
Of common life which we still use. with

Life Lengthened.

1. CULTIVATE an equable temper;
many II man has fallen dead in a fit Of
passion.
9 Eat regularly, not over thrice day,
and nothing between meals. ,a1
3. Go TO bed at regular hours. Get up
rs soon es you wake of yourself, and do
not sleep in the day-time--at least not
longer than ten minutes before noon.
4. Work always by the day, and not by
the job.
5. Stop working before yor are very
much tired-before you are tagged out"
6. Cultivate generous and accommo-
dating temper
Z. Never cross a bridge before you come
to it; this will save you half the troubles
of life.
g. Never eat when you are not hungry,
nor drink when you are not thirsty.
Q. Let your appetite always come unin-
vited.
10. Cool off in n place greatly warmer
than the one in which you have been eX-
ercising; this simple rule would prevent
incalculable sickness and save millions of
lives every year.
II. Never resist call of nature for
single moment.
10. Never allow yourself to be chilled
Through and through" it is this which
destroys so many every year in a few
days sickness from pneumonia-called
by some lung fever-or inflammation of
the lungs.
13. Whoever drinks no liquids at meals
will add years of pleasurable existence to
his life. Of cold or warm drinks the
former are the more pernicious; drinking
at meals induces persons to eat more than
they otherwise would, as anyone can veri-
fly by experiment, and it is excess in eat
ing which devastates the land with sick
ness, suffering and death.
IA. After fifty years of age, if not day
laborer, and sedentary persons after forty,
should eat but twice day-in the morn
ing and about four in the afternoon; for
every organ without adequate rest will
"give out" prematurely.
10. Begin early to live under the benign
influence of the Christian religion; for it
"has the promise Of the life that now is
and of that which is to come. ."--HdIpS

PROF. MARSH, of Yale College, on his
return from the Indian Territory a few
weeks ago, wrote to President Grant,
charging that supplies furnished to the
various Indian tribes were inferior and
improperly distributed. He also charged
Secretary Delano and Indian Commission
er Smith with being cognizant of these
frauds. In regard to Indian Agent Sa-
vile, of the Red Cloud Agency, Mr..
Marsh declared that he was wholly unfit
ted for his position and guilty of the gross
est frauds upon the Indians in his
charge. This letter was accompa-
MED with samples of the goods
furnished. The President called the
attention of the department to the letter,
and the Commissioner of Indian Affairs
straightway came out with a positive
denial of the charge of fraud and corrup.
tion, so far as his own department was con-
cerned, and said the commission appointed
to inquire into the condition of affairs at
the Red Cloud Agency had completely
exoncrated the Agent A New Haven dis
patch of the 18th says that notwithstand-

Prof, Marsh has reiterated his former
statements and charges. A special
commission appointed to investigate
these charges met in New York on the
evening of the 10Th. 1t consists of Messrs.
Faulkner, NJ. G., of West Virginia; Har-
ris, NJ. c., of Massachusetts, and Fletcher,
NJ. c., of Missouri. The meeting, which
was strictly private, was organized by
electing Gov. Fletcher Chairman. Prof.
Marsh and Indian Commissioner Smith
appeared before the body, accompanied
by Gen. Fisk, Chairman of the Board of
Indian Commissioners. Mr.. Marsh pre-
sented his charges in pamphlet form,
which had already been printed. Inves-
tigation will take place at the Red Cloud
| Agency.

And counting her heavenly birthdays,
