The Papal Swiss Guards.

Most foreigners, who have been in
Rome, remember the entrance to the Vat
lean with the Portone di Bronco at the
end of the semi-circle at the
right of the Bernin colonade. On the
way to the mass you pass along this por-
tico, before the post of Swiss guards,
whose uniform of "lansquenets" of the
sixteenth century is one of the curiosities
of Rome; and you may hear the halberds
clashing upon the stone floor in salute
of some religious funcuonary as he comes
in.
need not describe these guards, with
their heavy mustaches and boards; their
fresh. colored faces and their unconscious
swagger and their doublets, which
seem so wofully out of place in modern
Rome.
On little triangular place, at the foot
of the high and massive wall of the Sis
tine Chapel, between the great stretch OF
the Pontiticial garden and the colossal
sides of st. Peters Church, there is an.
other Swiss guard, at that door of the
Vatican by which, last spring, Leo Kill
made his little excursion into the outer
world, which was so much talked about
in the newspapers. Near by sentinel
of the Italian Army stands guard in the
name of King Humbert. Here we have

picket lines scarcely twenty PAGES apart

A Wonderful Clock.

A marvellous piece of mech anism has
recently been exhibited in Paris. 1t is
an eight-day clock, which chimes the
quarters, plays sixteen tunes, playing
three tunes every hour, or at any inter
val required, by simply touching a
spring. The hands go as follows: One
once a minute, one once an hour, one
once week, one once month and one
once year.
1t shows the moons age; rising and
setting of the sun, the time of high and
low tide, besides showing half ebb and
half flood. A curious device represents
the water, showing ships at high water
tide as if they were in motion; and, as it
recedes, leaves them high and dry on the
sands.
The clock shows the hour of the day,
the day of the week, the day of the
month and the month of the year. The
mechanism is so arranged as to make its
own provisions for long and short months.
1t also shows the signs of the zodiac,
equations and the difference between sun
and railroad time fer every day in the
year. San Francisco Examiner.

"a Snail'n Pnce. -

"a snail's pace" need not be used
any longer as a term more or less in
definite. By an interesting experiment
at the Florence Polytechnic Institute a
few days ago the pace Was acertained eX-
actly and reduced to figures, which may
now be used by persons who favor the
use of the exact terms. A half a dozen
of the mollusks were permitted to crawl
between two points ten feet apart, and
from this the average pace was ascer-
tanned. In working the calculation into
feet, yards, rods, furlongs and miles it
was found that it would take small
snail exactly fourteen days to crawl Il

An interesting incident in connection
with President Harrison's visit to Atlanta
was his meeting with Mr.. George Cook,
courtly, elderly gentleman, and we'll
known piano manufacturer of Boston.
Tho grandfather of Mr.. Cook was the
Captain Cook who saved the life of GEN
eral William Henry Harrison from the
Indians at the battle of Tippecanoe. Mr..
Cook and Mrs. Cook had been spending
few days with Governor Bullock, and
on invitation Of Mayor Hemphiil went up
the road to meet the President. The
meeting of the two grayhaired grandsons
was very cordial, and they enjoyed a
pleasant chat during the ride into the
city.

The Derivation of Buckrnm.

Buckram, so called from Bokhara,
where it was originally made in the Mid
die Ages, was much esteemed for being
costly and fine, and fit for use in church
vestments and for secular personal wear.
John Grandson, Bishop OF Exeter, Eng
land in 1927, gave to his cathedral flags
of white and red buckram, and among
the five very rich wells for covering the
movable lectern IN that church three
were lined with blue bokeram. As late
as the beginning of the sixteenth cen
tury this stuff was held good enough for
lining to a black velvet gown for Queen
Elizabeth. DRY G1Ods ChrQRiele.

Balm Of GiIead.

The balm of Gilead, which is alluded
to in the Old Testament as being ex-
tremely precious, and which is spoken
of by Strabo, Pliny and other ancient
writers as being a cure for almost every
disease, is a liquid resinous substance of
high fragrance and enjoys very high
reputation in the East. 1t is generally
believed to be taken from species of
balsamodendrow, a small tree growing
in Arabia and AbYssinia, and known as
balsam of Gileadeuse. The finest balsam,
called obobalsam or balm of Mecca, is
obtained by incisions, is at first turbid
and white, but finally becomes a golden
yellow color and of the consistency Of
honey, Inferior kinds are obtained by
boiling the fruit and the wood. Brook

1t really looks now, asserts the New

Italian Government toward this country
had so frightened King Humbert's sub
jects as to make tens of thousands of
them hasten to fly from Italy and seek
refuge here. They are coming over as
fast as they can find ships to carry them,
and, according to recent dispatches, the
Mediterranean ports are swarming with
Italians anxious tosecure hunks in the
steerage of the steamships bound for
America. There is reason for enter.

And watch the folds of its imperial train
Catching in heecy foam thousand glows--
A miracle of fire unquenched by sea.

All else unseen, It is as heaven itself
Had lost its poise, an each unanchored star
In phantom haste fees TO the horizon line.
