Where Bathing is Questionable.
1t is no longer fashionable to battle
in the surf at Newport. Madame
Haut Ton discovered that it was pos
sible to meet her neighbours maid in
the water, and then too, she came in
contact with the summer tourists,
whom she regards as very undesirable
to know, so she concluded that surf
bathing must no longer be recognized
in ''our set.n The people in bathing
are usually those who do not car for
the opinion of the fashionable world,
or those from the hotels. Hotel life
is not interesting. Unlike some ofthe
other summer places, life does not
centre in the great caravansaries; and
so unless n has an extensive ac-
quaintance among the Newport peo-
pie, it is extremely stupid to be at a
hotel.-LadieS' Home Journal.

ANCIENT CHRISTIAN ART.
1t Was Developed in the Catacombs
and Was Largely Symbolic.

The first Christian painters and
sculptors were jewellers in the Cata-
combs. No matter how the question
as to the original purpose of these ex-
cavationssma be decided, it is suffi-
cient for the writer's object to recall
the fact that when the furious tide of
persecution rolled over the Roman
Empire the Christians fed to these
for protection. Beneath the streets
and palaces of imperial Rome were
hewn still other streets, and as the
famous ways above were lined with
the stately tombs of Roman noble
men, and heroes, so, too, in the locull
of the galleries beneath, the Chris
tians inferred the remains OF their
martyred brethren.
In places where galleries converged
were widened spaces moi unlike the
forums of the city; in these rude ora
tories the prosecuted people met for
prayer, assisted at the solemn offices
of the Church, and partook Of the
most holy sacrament. Their religion
was prescribed, for to be a Christian
was to be a traitor to the State as we'll
as an enemy of Jupiter, and the pun
ishment was torture and death.
Every man suspected his neighbor:
the father dragged his son before the
tribunal; the daughter gave evidence
against her mother. Under such cir
cumstances the utmost precaution was
necessary. Hence, while Christians
retrained from pagan practices, they
studiously concealed the evidences of
their being followers of the Nazarene.
Their very speech was clothed in am
biguity, and the discipline of the Sc
cret'' was in force. OF necessity, the
effects of this restraint are visible in
the Christian worship of that period,
and even more so in the works of art.
AS examples of the former we have
the offides of Tenebre, Dr. Darkness,
and the of Holy Saturday, which
were wont to be celebrated at the
midnight honr.
The paintings of the Catacombs
consist chiefly of symbols and scenes
from Scripture history, SO painted as
to refer to the state of affection in
which the Church then a The
symbolic paintings were many. The
laurel, the olive and the palm signify,
respectively, victory, peace and final
triumph; the Holy Spirit is repre-

the souls thirst after the living foun-

Christ and his disciples, the cross is

Nature in GOnVQlSiOn

Is terrific. Volcanic eruptions, cyclones, earthquakes are awfullY and tremend- ously picturesque, but scarcely desirable to emulate in action and effect by the administration of remedies which pro- duCe convulsion and agony in the abnor- mai portion of the human frame. Such is the effect of the old fashiored vioen, purgatives happily falling more and more into disuse, and of which Hosteter's Stomach Bitters is the wholesome, pleas ant and far more effective succedaneum. They weakened the intestines-the Bit ters invigorates them. They left the bowels inactive, because incapacitated by ensuing feebleness. The Bjtters on the contrary, and because it enables, not forces, them to act-a vast and fortunate difference-perpetuates their activity and regularity. The liver is benefcially stimulated, as the kidneys also are, by this medicines, which easily conquers, also, malaria, nervousness and rheu- matism.

HE DISPERSED THE BOYS.
An Aged Librarian Was Too Much fol
 the Hilarious Students.

An Aged Librarian Was Too Much for
 the Hilarious Students.
 A party of students in the big uni versity down at Delaware, the Ohio Wesleyan, were out enthusiastically serenading various members of the faculty and other functionaries of the college the other evening, and in their triumphant course, for their music swept every thing before it, they stopped in front of the residence of the college librarian, MT. Joseph Dickinson, says the TCl.do Blade.
 Fcstooning themselves along the high board fence which incloses the hbrar- ian's estate, the dulcet strains of the tin can and the long, trcmulous notes of the fsf-horn 1oated out upon the amblent atmosphere. The sweet tones of the bass drum, the ravishing music of those all-night voices and the grand ensemble of the whole choir were not long in bringing the old librarian to his front porch. His eyes swept in at glance tho row of students draped over his front fence and then rolled slowly and sentimentally up to the deep sky be- spangled with it's stars, sparkling in January's frost. The old moon, tossing on it's cloud-fleeco beds, shed a soft, sophomoric glamor over all the scene.
 The soft sentiment of the hour stole into tho old librarian's soul and he stood in silent rapture as ono translxcd by poeon of tho angelic hosts. And the rattle of tho tin pan and the hoarse notes of the fish-horn, the walls of the score of sentimental youths still beat upon the soft air and shattered it into atmospheric atoms. But there came a lull The music died away in low, lin- gering vail. The air held again the solemn stiffness. Then the tremb- ling voice of the deeply affected libra rian arose in the stilly night air, and said slowly:
 ''Gentlemen, dislike to disturb you and interrupt that classic concert, but just had that fence painted today"

A Passion as Strong in the Hearts of
 Women as in Those of Girls.
 Two cultivated women, whose lives are devoted to study and philanthropic pursuits, recently spent a sumner at their childhood's homo, where distant relative now lives, says tho Youths Con- panion. Tho hoGt, knowing thcir posi- tion in tho world of action, half-dreaded entertaining two such important person ages.
 But got we'll over my fear the sec ond day after they came" said she. What do you suppose they did? They went up in the attic where their old playthings were stored, and unpacked their dolls clothes. Then they toolz the little undergarments down inSo the kitchen, washed them and spread them on the grass to whiten.
 After that they did them up careful ly, and packed them away again with sprigs of lavender in the little trunk. We can't bear to have them grow vel low said Miss Martha to me. We were so fond of our dolls, and we did have such fine time making those clothesi Mothers stitches are in them, too"
 The womanly instincts of love for children and love of dolls are intimately connected. A girl of seventeen was one day found by school friend, busily sewing on child's dress.
 \''ft's for the Orphans Home," she said, in explanation. Don't praise me. am not doing it for charity. simply can't forget my play with dolls, and now that I havo packed my little family away, for very shame, want to amuse myself by making clothes for dolls of flesh and blood"
 A middle-aged woman who adopted a child was one day asked by friend, prone to look on the melancholy side of life, if she expected some time to enjoy her.
 "Erpectr' cried she; "why, the very first timc took her in my arms, felt as if Mehitablo Arabella, my old rag doll, had come to life. l haven't had such happy minute in thirty years"

Good Advice to Smokers.

If you are smoker, and don't own a cigar case, carry your cigars in your Lp- per waistcoat pocket, on the left, with the mouth end down. The constant motion of the right arm (presuming you arc right-handed) is sure to crush the tobacco or loosen the wrapper if the cigar be on the right side, and the same result is more readily attained with the match end down. If you have to let cigar go out, do not pull in the last puff, but blow it through the burning end. This expels the nicotine that would oth- erwlse gather at the mouth, and pre- vents the cigar from having rank taste. Indeed, some smokers question whether cigar is not improved by this method of reducing it to an ''old soldier"

 And then he let up?'

 And then the desperado presented you with a silver-mounted revolver as a token of his gratitude?"
 ''He did, but how on earth did you-'
 ''And he begged the cashiers pardon, and explained that his mother in Mas sachusetts was dying, and he wanted money to go to her!''
 That's it, that's it; but how did you get the particulars?"
 And then you raised a purse of S75, and sent the man on to see his mother die?'
 ''I did, did; but who told you all this?''
 And the man is now one of the lead ing merchants of Scottsboro?"

Fnnh fnr the Mind.

Have something for the mind to feed upon, something to look forward to and live for besides the round of daily labor or the counting of profit and loss. If you have not any talent for writing splendid works on political economy or social sci ence, or the genius for creating good story or 9 fine poem, the next best thing

DIVIDING A CRJRN.
low Deacon Davis Settled a Troublesome
 Controversy.


 Controversy.
 John Quincy Adams was noted for his self-reliance and for his tenacity of pur- pose--his enemies even said he was self willed and obstinate. The old gentle man was very fond of chess, but had a strong disinclination to being beaten. Report said that when he discovered the danger of checkmate, he would often be so long in considering his next move as to tire out his adversary, and the game would end in a draw"
 A similar "masterly inactivity" is often shown by selfish people who hope by doing nothing when something should be done, to gain an advantage. An anccdote, told in "Glimpses of Life in Westborough, illustrates thIs trait of human sclfshness.
 Isaac Davis, deacon and one of the representative men of the town, mar ried for hIs second wife a widow, who lived in New Hampshire. She had bought barrel-churn with one of her neighbors, each of whom paid half of the cost. After her marriage, Mir. Davis rode over to this neighbor's to arrange about the churn.
 He proposed two plans-that- she should sell him her share in the churn. or buy his wife's, but she woGld not agree to either of them. At last, when Mir. Davis saw that the woman was de- termined to retain, if possible, not only her own but Mrs. Davis share of the churn, he went out to the wagon, and came back with saw.
 ''I anticipated there might be trouble, 7" said he, ''and l came prepared for it."
 Then he quietly sawed the churn in two, and with the remark: We are willing to give you the largest half. :" left her with the side that had the crank

Perhaps the readers of the EPITAPH would like 10 know in what respect Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is better than any other We will tell you When this Remedy is taken as directed, as soon as cold has been contracted, and before 1t has become settled in the system, it will counteract the effect oi the cold and greatly lessen it's severity if not efectually cure the cold in two days time, and it IS the only remedy thai will do this. It acts in perfect harmony with nature and aids nature in relieving the lungs, opening the secretions, lique- fylng the mucus and causing its expul- sion from the air cells of the lungs and restoring the system to a strong and healthy condition. No other remedy in the market possesses these remarkable properties. No other will cure a cold as quickly or leave the system in as sound condition. 50 cent and one
