AN archaeological discovery Of sin

herred, Norway, where a whole ship Of
the Viking times has been found inn
bedded in sandhill. II is supposed to
be relic Of the eighth or ninth CEN

over seventy feet Of the vessel had been
unearthed. together with numerous
tools of thousand years ago, such as
spades, shields and many marine imple-
ments. II seems also that the vessel
has seen service at sea- It is supposed
to give complete idea Of the Viking
era, although its age Is almost as mys-
FERROUS as the manner in which 1t came
to be buried in sandhill. II will be

He Found h Bowery Boy.

1t iSd 4Ated of Thackeray that, beng
very desirous to see "Bowery boy" a
New York rough of twenty years ago,
he went with a friend into the haunts
of that peculiar creature to looEfo one.
Very soon his companioEAointe out to
him a genuine specimen, Standing on
the corner of street against lamp
post, red -shirted, black -trousered, soap
locked, shiny-hatted, with a cigar in his
mouth elevated at an angle of forty five
degrees.
After contemplating him for a few
moments, Thackeray sad to his friend
that he would like to talke0 the fellow,
and asked if he might do so.
" Surely" he was told; "go to him
ard ask him to direct you some where. -
Thereupon Thackeray approached,
and said, politely:
my friend, should likA to go to-
such a place.
We'll" replied the Bowery boy, in
his peculiar tones, and without moving
anything but his lips, as he looked up
lazily at the tall, gray-haired novelist
"well, sonny, you can go, if you won't
stay tor long"
Thackeray was satisfied.

In PATHS diet. When she wakes in the
morning she drinks cup of chocolate.
This habit is invariable. On days when
she has not to sing she eats heavily of
underdone meat She has, too, strong
liking for Il certain garlic soup, which
has been invented especially f.r her by
an ingenious cook. On days when she
sings la Patti breakfasts ut eleven on
eggs and meat. with Bordeaux wine and
seltzer water. This is the only serious
meal she eats until after the perform
ance, when she sups. On hel singing
days la patti does not dine. After break
fast she retires to her room and sleeps
for a couple ofhours. About four clock
she dresses, takes a ride, then returns
hom610nd practices at the piano for an
hour. Before going to the theater she
drinks clear consomme. This hygienic
system is scrupulously observed by la
Patti. We may addeanother detail. She
never opens her mouth untN she has
taken her chocolate; then she tries her
voice by calling Caro-, her rchambermaid,
with all1hcr might.
