tions off the coast opposite Gibraltar,
under Apes Hill, with the object of
ascertaining the whereabouts of re-
cent wreck, has discovered at the bot
tom from eighty to one hundred large
guns, mostly 24 and 32 Founders, and
also two large anchors. They are
supposed to have belonged to some
large line of battle ship which sank in
the old war, possibly after the battle
of Trafalgar. AS there was no appa-

AN EGYprIAS CUsroM.-It is stated
that the ancient Egyptians when they
toasted always had Il skeleton at the
table with them. This was for the
purpose of reminding them that even
in the midst of mirth and revclry
death was apt to come. Let him come
when hc will, he is unwclcome. The
Egyptians sought to teach that all
should prepare for the grim monster
and be ready to follow him, let him
call when he would. The lesson can
we'll be remembered to-day. All
should live prepared to die at any
moment, and all should learn now
while in the full enjoyment OF health
and its pleasures that Peruna is the
greatest remedy in the world for the
diseases to which ticshis heir. 1t can
be procured at any drug store. Ask
your druggist for Peruno, the great
tonic.
