Discoveries in POmDeii.

The destruction which overwhelmed
Pompeii eighteen hundred years ago
has enabled modern students to study
the home-life of the Romans of the
first century under peculiarly adventa-
geous circumstances. The city was
buried up and preserved, and when
the covering is dug away we discover
just how the inhabitants lived.
A house recently unearthed in the
excavations at Pompeii was evidently
undergoing repair as the volcanic storm
buried it, Painters pots and brushes,
and workmen's tools, were scattered
about. Spots of whitewash starred
wall and floor. Pots and kettles had
been bundled up in a corner all by
themselves.
Dinner, however, had not been for
gotten. A solitary pot stood on the
stove; and there was q brown dish
in waiting before the oven, and on the
dish a sucking pig, all ready to be baked.
But the oven was already engaged
with it's full complement of bread, so
the sucking-pig had to wait. And it
never entered the oven, and the loaves
were never taken out until after q So
journ of seventeen hundred years.
The pig and the bread had been there
since November 20, A. D. 70. NJ. Flo
relli added the loaves to his museum
at Pompeii, -twenty-on of them, rath-
er hard, of course, and black, but per-
fectly preserved,

A Story of Abraham Lincoln.

Titan j. Coffey, Assistant Attorney
General, during Mr.. Lincoln's admin
istration, has contributed a batch Of
fresh anecdotes of Mr.. Lincoln. The
following is one of them:
In the spring of 1868 very hand
some and attractive young lady from
Philadelphia came to my Office with q
note from q friend asking me to assist
her in obtaining an interview with tho
President Some time before she had
been married to ayoung man who was
lieutenant in a Pennsylvania regiment.
He had been compelled to leave her
the day after the wedding to rejoin his
command in the Army of the Potomac.
After some time he obtained leave of
absence, returned to Philadelphia, and
started on brief honeymoon journey
with his bride. A movement of the
army being imminent, the War Depart
ment issued peremptory order re-
quiring oil absent officers to rcjoin
their regiments by q certain day on
penalty of dismissal in case Of disobe-
dience. The bride and groom, away
on their hurried wedding tour,
failed to see the order, and on their
return he was met by anotice Of his dis
missal from the service. The young
fellow was completely FRUSTRATED by
the disgrace, and his wife hurried to
Washington to get him restored. lob
tanned for her an interview with the
President. She told her story with
simple and pathetic eloquence and
wound up by saying: "Mr. Lincoln,
won't you help us? I promise you, if
you will restore him, he will be faith
full to his duty" The President had
listened to her with evident sympathy
and half amused smile at her ear
nestness, and as she closed her appeal
he said with parental kindness: "And
you say, my child, that Fred was COM
PEELED to leave you the day after the
wedding? Poor fellow, I don't wonder
at his anxiety to get back, and if he
stayed little longer than he ought to
have done We'll have to overlook his
fault this time. Take this card to
the Secretary OF War and he will re-
store your husband" She went to the
War Department, saw the Secretary,
who rebuked her for troubling the
President and dismissed her somewhat
CURLY. AS it happened, on her way
down the War Department stairs, her
hopes chilled by the Secretary's abrupt
manner, she met the President as
cending. He recognized her, and with
a pleasant smile said, "Well, my dear
have you seen the Secretary?' eyes,
Mr.. Lincoln" she replied, "and he
seemed very angry with me for going
to you. Won't you speak to him for
me?' "Give yourself no trouble, :"
said he. II will see that the order is
issued" And in a few days her hus-
band was remanded to his egiment.
am sorry to add that not long af-
ter he was killed at the battle of Gettys-
burg, thus sealing with his blood her
| pledge that he should befaithful to his
duty.

80. tor' Hit I'm ARain!"

| In the early days of Methodism in
Scotland, a certain congregation, where
there was but one rich man, desired to
build new chapel. A church meet
ing was held. The old rich Scotchman
rose and said: Brethren, we dinna
need new chapel: I'll give IS for re-
pairs"
Just then a bit of plaster falling from
the ceiling hit him on the head.
Looking up and seeing how bad it
was, he said: "Brethren, it's worse
thon 1 THOUGHT; I'll make it so pun ,"
"Oh, Lord" exclaimed devoted
brother on back seat, chit i'm
againl"
There are many human tabernacles
which are in sore need of radical build
ing over, but we putter and fuss and
repair in spots without satisfactory
results. It is only when we are per-
sonally alarmed at the real danger
that we act independently, and do the
right thing. Then it is that we most
keenly regret because we did not sooner
use our judgment, following the advice
born of the experience of others and
jump away from our perils.
thousands OF persons VINO Will reaQ
this paragraph are in abject misery
to-day when they might be in a sat
isfactory condition. They are weak,
lifeless, full of odd aches and pains,
and every year they know they are
getting worse, even though the best
doctors are patching them in spots.
The origin of these aches and pains is
the kidneys and liver, and if they
would build these all over new with
Warmers safe cure as millions have
done, and cease investing their money
in miserably unsuccessful patchwork,
they would be very we'll and happy
and would bless the day when the
Lord "hit 'em" and indicated the
common-sense course for them to pur-

LIES DAY.

into the field OF life we pass
At early morn. The jeweled grass
With sunbeams kissed spreads at our feet;
And youth, like morn, all pure and sweet
And bright is filed with rosy dreams;
While in the purple heavens CLEANS
The star OF fortune and OF fame,
And in it's light we read name
O dream, most sweet, it is our own;
More glorious, it shines alOnei
The sun speeds on the star no more
Is seen. Elusive dreams are DER.
Fortune and fame 80 coy and fleet
But mock our weary, way-worn feet
Ambitions fairest prize has flown;
A name appears, but not our own.
What have we then for all our pains?
For all our prayers? Are there no grains
Ofgood to show? Has all been lost
In that our cherished plans are crossed,
And dissipated each fond dream
As snow flakes melt within the stream?
All, no! See how our souls are filled
With wealth OF harvests we have titled;
With meekness, patience, love and truth;
Blest springs OF everlasting youth;
Bright jewels OF the crown within;
Ripe fruit OF life's sharp discipline;
On which there dawns the twilight gray
OF day that dies not with the day.

Russell Sage Losing His Grip.

Sage lost altogether last year, it is
estimated, $8,OOO,OOO. He is still a
very wealthy man, but his losses have
made him very cautious. He is, in
fact, so cautious that he is doing no
business nowadays to speak of. He
writes very few privileges, and now
that he does not feel sure, will not en-
tail loss. He takes no chances. He
ceased to be power i'll the "Street, "
and nobody who knows him believes
that he will ever again acquire any
thing like his old temerity He is
thoroughly frightened: The prospect
of a loss, even small one is terr9riz-
ing. Sage will probably degenerate
into what in the "Strcet" is known as
a coupon clipper" He will buy
bonds bearing sure rate of interest,
collecting the interest when it falls due.
He will not dare risk his money on the
rise and fall of values:=-Brooklyn I'm

A Ridiculous Indian Scare.

boys, with guns, bells, ETC., went to the

up the neighbors, and making them be-

they could carry and drove into tho city for
safety. 1t was about o'clock at night,
and as soon as the nows OF the "out-
break" reached here the church bells were

put to arms. Banker Fish was chosen

while Col. Il. Caulcy headed the artillery
toward the scene of "battle," whore every
thing was found peaceable.

informed an editor OF the Daily Press, of this

that he could not put his foot to the ground.
After trying everything he could think OF
without obtaining relicf he at ten o'clock
one morning applied st. Jacobs Oil, and
shortly afterwards made two further appli-

it was quick.
