A French soldier sat on the summit
Of a hill overlooking u garrison town;
his horse was picketed close by; the
man was smoking leisursly, and from
time to time he glanced from the

held in his hand.
A comrade passed by and asked,
"What are you doing here?"
II am bearing the P%repident's par

smoker, calmly. without changing his
comfortable attitude.
"Well, then, you should hurry along

comrade.

.aT's A HORSE ON CESAR"

THAT May Have Been cicero.s Re-
mark as lie Ratified the Box.
The number OF dice used was three.
being marked with a minimum Of one
ard maximum Of six spots. The
most fortunate throw, called yener-
esu BY Cicero, de Divin., J., Is, and
basilicus by Plautus, Curculio, H., 8,
10, was when the dice showed three
seniones, OF eighteen spots. The pro-
gress Of the game, according to the
North American Review. was marked
on the board by the movement Of the
men, latrunculi, backward and for
ward. The gravity OF the losses de
pended naturally upon the amount
Of money at stake and fines that were
paid when the dice showed one or
more aces.
IL is difficult to explain what skill
had to do with such a game, still Isl
dorus describes how inveterate gam
blers could succeed in throwing the
six and in avoiding the unit. I sus-
pect that this skill was not ALWAYS
innocent, and that a heavy particle
Of lend was perhaps concealed on the
side of the unit. In a grafito at Pom
peii m honest player congratulates
himself for having gained a good sum
Of money without fraud. Plautus
dwells sometimes on these dishonest
practices, to avoid which several in
strumenfs were invented from time to
time, such rs the horn (pyxis cornea)
and the frittillus. It seems however,
that these instruments did not al-
ways fulfill their purpose. A third
y was consequently invented in the
shape of atower, with a spiral stair
casaI ipsi .e and q funnel on the top.
TbI diee shaken first.in the horn, or
in the fritillus, were thrown into the
funnel and rolled down the spiral
staircase until they landed on the
table. Such precautions rendered
cheating almost impossible.

THE GOODNESS OF SPACE.

ing Ninety-five in the Shade,
We rarely realize, + think, how
easily the earth parts with it's heat,
and how cold space is through which,
the earth sweeps in it's orbit, says
Harper's Magazine. Nor do we com.
monty appreciate how ~releatlessly
space sucks away the heat which the
earth has garnered from the sunbeams,
out onto it's illimitable depths. Way
out in space is q cold SO intense that
we fairly ia to grasp its meaning.
Perh4fs 500 nE4Oa degrees below the
freezing point of water, some philoso-
pliers think, are the dark recesses b e
yond our atmosphere. And night and
day, summer and winter, this insati.
ate space is robbing as of our heat
and fighting with demoniac power to
reduce our globe to it's own bitter
chill. So after an our summer and
winter temperatures are only MAIN
tanned by the residue OF the suns
heat>which we have been able to store
up and keep hold of in spite of the
pitiless demands OF space. Our
margin sometimes gets 80 reduced on
nights in winter that We con readily
believe the astronomers and physl.
cists when they te i US that a reduc-
ton Of the SUMS heat by 7 per cent
and a slight increase in the number of
winter days would suffice to bring
again to our hemisphere 6 new age Of
ice, with it's inevitable desolation.
The balance is really a nice one be-
tween the heat w daily gather from
the u and the share Of it which We
lose in space.

A Good

A safety wire for mines has been de-
vised which does not throw a spark
when by any accident the wireis brok-
en-, the novelty in this case consisting
practically in transferring the break
age Of the wire to some place at the
top of the mine, where it's action is
not important. The wire or cable
contains an inner core OF closely coil
ed spiral wire insulated by braid,
and an outer core which is joined in
parallel with the inner. In case the
cable parts, the inner spiral pulls out
to q cons. lerable distance and takes
the whole current. As soon as the
exterior main is broken, the fuse at
the switchboard burns out and re-
leases a switch which. cuts out the
whole current. In case the wire
should be completely severed, as by
an AK, thus crushing the two conduc-
tors together, o small resistance coil
is placed in the circuit, and any CON
tact between the two wires causes the
fuse TO melt MS before. Such arrange
ments is said to be of especial useful
ness in coal mines, where explosive
gas is occasionally met with.

A PRETTY STORY.
How Robert Schumann Became a
Great Composer.

How Robert Schumann Became a
Great Composer.
The failing health of Clara Schu-
mann recalls her romantic and ideal
life with her husband. The author of
"Traumerei' was a lawyer, and for
years was known as Clara Weeks
husband. He fell in love with Clara
Week when she was a girl oils. She
had then been a concert player four
years. To make her acquaintance the
young law clerk went to her father
and said he wanted to study music.
The father, who knew the ways Of
young men, took Robert as q pupil,
but sent Clara off on @ long tour. She
returned three years after, when the
father consented to an engagement,
which lasted four years. Thus Robert
served seven years at music like
another Jacob, purely to win a wife.
This merited devotion had its re-
ward. While Clara electrified king
doms and courts with her playing,
Robert sat in the audience and
applauded. That he had musical
genius his wife believed with her heart
rather than her headr-andAeem-
PEELED him to exercise it. "Write me
something to play at my concerts. 1
shall play much BETTER" she pleaded.
"Youhave been known as my husband,
in the future / desire to be known
only as your wife" 1t waste crafty
this generous impulse that Robert
Schumann became q composer.
Since Schumann's melancholy death
Clara Schumann hasinsisted on being
known as Robert Schumann's widow
and has devoted herself to interpret
ing his compositions. -From the
