4 Pretty Littlo Scene.

a boy carrying large bouquet OF
roses. some phlox, heliotrope and
pinks entered a Cottage Grove avenue
car Yesterday. Among the passengers
inside was a little girl of possibly 6
years Of age. The little one was as
pretty a blondinctte as one can sec,
and her WOODEN dress, spotlessly white,
set off her juvenile beauty perfectly.
Everybody was admiriug the child.
No sooner had the flower boy entered
than the car was filled with the per
fumc Of the roses and heliotrope. The
little Girl soon discovered it and quick
lv gave up her observation from the
car window. She approached her
mother and began teasing for some
Of the flowers. Finally when she
found out that her mother could not
procure any Of the much wished for
roses the Child went right up to the
boy.
VIII 90 dive me tum ilowcrsT she
asked.
The chances were nine to ten that
the boy wouldn't give any. But 1t was,
perhaps, because the little girl was sc
swcctly charming that he detached q
couple Of handsome red roses and
gave them to her. Triumphantly
She returned to her mother
The roses were pinned to hcl
bosom. At Twentieth street the boy
got off. Quickly the little girl Jumped
on the scat. But 1t was on the wrong
side from that on which the boy was.
She jumped off. went TO the other seat,
and looked out of tho window. She
saw the boy, and he, noticing her
waved his hand. Then she, putting
her rosy fingers to her mouth, threw
him two. three kisses. 1t was 50 sweet
", gracefully done Then she settled
down and inhaled her ilowers.-Chi

Mr.. Swctnam, OF Blaine, Lawrence
county, Ky, owned n fine mich COW,
which was seized with fits and pitched
around in a dangerous manner and
exhibited many vicious freaks She
would strike her nose against any
available object until the skin and
flesh were torn away. Alarmed at the
danger OF her doing harm, Mr.. Sweet
nam dispatched the animal and made
an investigation, when. on cutting her
head open, a coppcrhcad snake was
found in her nose, which had crawled
up the left nostril over the bridge Of
the nose and down the right nostril,
where its fangs were firmly imbcdded,
completely hiding them from view

tons Of historians and antiquarians
have scoiicd ut the unreliable local
legend, later investigation will dis
cover that the dcspiscd traditional
story was the true ono after all. Cen
turlcs of repetition may have slightly
added To the incidents or distorted
some Of the facts. but tho main tale is
strictly exact. The rcputcd treasure
trovc' may prove but a triiling hoard,
tho battlefield smaller in extent, the
graves of The heroes less numerous
but in each case local tradition is true
regarding the facts that occurred and
the localities where they took place.
F Traditions may at least claim TO be
as accurate rs written history though
this, perhaps. is faint praise Oral
tradition Is usually free from con
scious party bias. Tho rcpcaicrs OF
traditional lore carry on the tale IS
they heard it but how many an clo-
quent historian appears TO assume a
brief for ono side or another in every
party contest, and to writc his history
with q view, not Of Calculating facts,
but Of representing certain historical
characters rs angels or the reverse.
Such writer's arc always the pleasant
est TO read an impartial historian"
is sadly dull as a rule; but when q
biased writor plays the part Of Clio,
tradition may often prove the safer
guido Of the two. Folk lore, if not
an altogether reliable guide, is seldom
totally at fault in its statement Of
facts, and tradition has frequently
kept alive memories which might
otherwise havc persisted altogether.
Books may be destroyed, and history
willfully garblcd but it is less easy to
cxtinguish local traditions. Man

One Of the most important archwo-
logical expeditions undertaken in
western Asia is that of NJ. and Nine
DiculafOv. who were sent by the
French departmental public instruc-
ton and Of public works to Media and
Persia 10 explore the remains Of the
ancient cities of those regions. Their
first expedition wasundertakcm in 1881
and 1882, and their work was COM
pletcd in the years 1854, 1855, 1856
The excavations. which were carried
out with great difficulty, on account
of the fanaticism of the inhabitants.
have yielded valuable results from an
archaeological as well as from an his
torical standpoint. The palaces Of
Artaxerxes and of Darius have been
excavated, and it is now possible to re-
construct the plans Of these magniii-
cent buildings. The objects collected
during these excavations have been
transported 10 Paris, and form one of
the most interesting departments Of
the Louvre. The collections contain
polychromic bas relicfs from the royal
palace. representing lion and warriors
and potteries of the First and Second
century Of our era. Besides architcc-
tural remains, numerous inscribed
cylinders, ivory, bronze and clay OBJ
iects have been found. The palace, a
model Of which is being made, was a
magnificent building rising on a plat
form sixty feet in height, protected by
wall, and accessible only on the south
side by large staircase. Science.
