A temperance lecturer might find
every argument he could need in the
brutal and disgusting tragedy in this
city yesterday. The Carsons and their
visitors had no money for food or fur
niture or decent lodging, but they
were determined to have money for
drink even when it involved the ne
cessity of pulling a little girls shoes off
her feet and pawning them. Then came
more drink and the Inevitable quarrel,
ending in the crime which is always
near to every man whose moral sense
is destroyed by i~ntoxieation. The
habitual drunkard escapes blood
outlines only because sufficient
temptation, as a rule. is mercifully
withheld.

The Ring of CheODS,

Cheops was the builder of the pyramid
which bears his name, and, as if to make
the structure perpetuate his deeds for all
time to come, the very stones and bricks
of which it is composed are stamped with
his name. Cheops lived nearly $500
years ago, his great pyramid being an
antiquity in the days when the great
nations of old were IN their youth, and
yet we of this Nineteenth century can
have the satisfaction of looking upon the
very ring he wore so proudly upon his
royal finger! The hieroglyphics ON the
ring are minutely accurate and beauti-
fully executed, the ring itself being of
finest gold and weighing nearly an ounce.
The oval signet bears the name of Che
ops, which is in hieroglyphics in perfect
accord with the stamp on the bricks of
the great pyramid. This remarkable an
tiquity was found in tomb at Ghizeh.

Writing In Erect Characters.

AS most adults write without much
regard to the angle which the words
take, it is to them matter Of supreme
indifference whether upright or sloping
calligraphy is best for their health. But
with children it is different. Hence
there may be something in the recon-
mendation Of Drs. Won Reuss and
Lorenz to the supreme council of hy-
gene for Austria that in future children
should be taught to write in erect char
acters, for in this form of penmanship
the scholar faces his work, and is spared
the twist Of the body and neck which is
always observable in those who write
slantwise, and the tendency to spinal
curvature induced thereby.-London

sheds where they kept large quantities Of
lumber, and smashed a locomotive that
was standing under the shed. At other
places houses were unroofed and trees
swept down. The main track of the
storm was fifty yards wide and it Travelled
from west to east. One man when his
house began to shake thought the end
was near at hand, called on the Lord for
help and prayed as he never did before.
1t is strange that some people never have
any use for the LoEa until they think
they are in great danger. Old citizens
say that about fifty years ago storm
