There are two usual ways of doing what Ma

Stomach Bitters, the effect of which is not yio-
lent, but sufficiently thorough and which does
not gripe the intestines If the first is seleoted

At this point in his story Col Weymouth

Kitty Gives face. He saw tears in her
eyes, and, as he looked, they ran down her
cheeks. She did not seem to be aware of
them. There was perfound sympathy
and compassion in her regard, and he was
more sensible thereof because she made
no attempt to put her feeling into words.

PERUVIAN WRESTLING JUGS.
Woderful Specimens of Pottery Pro-
duced in the Land of the Incas.
Ftonl the Slrfss Cross.

From the Sriss Cross
The silvadors or musical jugs found
among the burial places of Peru are most
ingenious specimens of handiwork. A silvio
in the William S. Vaux collection at Phila-
delphia consists of two vases, whose bodies
are joined one TO the other with a hole or
opening between them. The neck of one of
these vases is closed, with the exception of a
small opening in which a clay pipe is in
serted leading to the body Of the whistle
When a liquid is poured into the open
necked vase the air is compressed into the
other and in escaping through the narrow
opening is forced into the whistle, the vi
brations producing sounds. Many of these
sounds represent tine notes of birds; one in
the Clay collection of Philadelphia, Pa. -,
initiates the notes of the robin or some
other member of the thrush tribe peculiar
to Peru. The closed neck of this double
vase is modelled into a representation of a
birds head, which is thrush-like in charac-
ter.
Another water vase in the same collection,
representing a llama, initiates the disgust
ing habit which this animal possesses of
ejecting its saliva when enraged. The hiss
ing sound which accompanies this action is
admirably initiated. A black tube of earth
enware, ornamented with grotesque bead
in low relief, to which short arms are at
tdcDeC, pressing Il Unlee-UuDeQ SyrIil1 10 tLS
lips CLAY collection), deserves special men
ton, as it suggests the evolution of this in
strument from single tube to more COM
plicated forms.
Peruvian woven tissues, often dyed in
brilliant hues, are unsurpassed by the tex
tile productions of any other ancient
American people. Their jewelry of gold
and silver is remarkable. Statuettes in the
precious metals are even more wonderful ;
they represent monkeys, birds with their
feathers, fish with scales, ETC., modelled in
relief or intaglio. Human figures were also
cast in precious metals, the artists even at
tempting groups. Beads were made of gold,
silver, glass and earthenware. Wood was
used to furnish objects in daily use, and an
example may be seen in the beautifully
ornamented combs that are som etime5
found placed beside the dead In the huacas.
1t is yet to be shown that the ancient
Peruvians possessed a system Of coinage or
of recording their ideas by a system Of
writing, either hieroglyphic or phonetic. 1t
is supposed that some system of communi-
eating ideas and recording events existed
by means of lupos or strings of
varying length, on which were knotted a
certain number of threads. The Inca was
thus enabled 10 transmit his orders by mes
sengers over all the roads starting from the
capital at Cuzco. Relays Of runners were
stationed all along the imperial highways at
distances rarely exceeding Ave miles, and in
this way orders were forwarded 10 all
points in the kingdom with great rapidity.
