Interesting Facts.

The tomb of Edward l., who died in
1901 was opened Jan. ?, 177O, after 463
years had elapsed. His body was
almost perfect. Canute (tbe Dance,
who crossed over to England in 1917,
was found 1873, by workmen who
repaired Winchester Cathedral, where
his body had reposed nearly 750 years,
perfectly fresh, In 1869, three Roman
soldiers, fully equipped with warlike
implement, were dug out of a bed of
peat in Ireland, where they had proba-
bly, lain 1,500 years. Their bodies were
perfectly fresh and plump. In the reign
OF James Ii. OF England, after the fall of
the church OF Ashley, in Warwickshire,
there was taken up the corpse of
Thomas. Gray, Marquis of Dorset, who
was buried the 10th IL October, 1880, in
the tWenty-second year OF Henry VII;
and although it had lain there seventy
eight years, the eyes, hair, flesh, nails,
and joints remained as though it had
been newly buried. Robert Braybrook,
who was consecrated Bishop of London
in 1881, and who died in 1904, and was
buried in st: PauPs, was taken out of
his tomb, after the great fire in 1866,
during the repairs Of the cathedral, and.
he had lain there no less than
1862 years, his body was found firm as
to skin, hair, joints and nails. The
Convent de st. Domingo was lately
demolished in search of treasure
supposed to be concealed there, and the
body of Prince Rodriguez taken out,
who had been buried alive in 1865,
exactly as When placed $50 years
before. His daughter, years and |
months old was lying ut her fathers
feet, and as perfectly preserved as
himself. The position Of his hands
shows that he wat suspended by the
body and neck till he died. Marks on
the cord and of the burning iron are
deeply recorded on various parts of the
body. His hair and beard are firm, his

lSuiCdSo LcuSCfI
The card should be printed or writ
ten very plainly.
White cards, without any embellish
ment, are regarded as in the best taste
avoiding extremes in size.
The gentleman's card should contain
nothing except the name and address
of the caller; in general, omit the ad-
dress
The titles of "Hon," mr." ESQ.,
ETC., are not allowed Oh calling cards.
"Mrs," or Miss are admissible on
ladies' cards: Professional titles, such
as DR." Rev" and IN. d." etc, are
admissible on gentlemen's cards.
A military title, such as "Lieut.,'
"Capt.," Gen." "U. S. A." U. S. NJ
etc, is also admissible.
The handsomest style is tbat which
is engraved; next is that which is beau
tifully written; next comes the printed
card in text letter.
At hotel, when calling on any one,
send your card and await a reply in the
reception room.
If two or more ladies are in the
household, the turning down of a cor
ner signifies that the card is for all the
ladies.

serve to show that you have called.
The hostess should, if not desiring
to see any one, send word that she is
engaged when the servant first goes to
the door, and not after the card has
been sent up.
