We're those of Assyria. Only forty years
ago discovery was made of the royal IL

light the chambers that contained it, the
floors of which were covered a foot deep
with clay tablets bearing cuneiform
characters, many of which were so
small as 10 require a magnifyng glass
for reading them. These were the
books of that strange and warlike people
OF antiquity, the tablets being inscril ed
with ii stylus while soft and aiterward
baked. The library belonged to the
luxurious monarch Sardanapalus, who
was great patron of literature. 1t in
cluded 10000 distinct works, some ex-
tending over many tablets, methodically
arranged and catalogued. The institu.
ton was open 10 the public. Most OF the
tablets which were found whole are now
in the British Museum. In ancient
Egypt were many libraries, such col
lections being usually deposited in tenn

HE WAS OVERCOME.


Mucn lOr
Some of the European newspapers are
telling a truly veraciouS story OF the
saeacity of trained elephant which
adorns French travelling show. The
PROPRIETOR Of the circus announced that
on u certain night his elephant would
play the Russian Hymn on piano
with his trunk. Intense interest was
aroused, and when the evening came
the expectant public crowded the circus
TO the roof. After the usual perform
ance four men carried in a cottage pl-
ano, which they placed III the center OF
the arena. Then the intelligent animal
was brought in, paraded with much dig
nifty three times around the ring, and
then, amid the keenest excitement, adj
vanced to the piano. With move
ment of his trunk the touched the key
board but hardly had he done so when
d surprising change came over him.
He trembled with fear and rage, hurled
his trunk into the air, and then with a
scream of terror rushed out Of the
arena.
There was a great hurrying to and fro
of the employees, and the circus pro-
prietor and the elephant keeper left the
ring for consultation. In q few minutes
the proprietor returned and announced
with regret that the performance could
not take place The fact was, he said,
that the elephant had recognized in the
keyboard of the instrument portion OF
the tusks OF his long lost mother, who
had fallen prey to the ivory hunters
of Africa. He had suggested TO the
keeper that another piano might be pro-
cured, but that expert had informed him
that the animal was so overcome with
emotion that it would be impossible for
him to perform that evening. Under
these circumstances he suggested that
the Russian Hymn, followed by the
Marseillaise, should be played by the
band. The entertainment was thus
brought 10 close amid the frantic APP
plause Of the audience.

An invention which IS veritable

iron box filed with asbestos, on which
little parafilne oil IS poured and lit,
The box, which has long handle, is
inserted between the bars of the
crate. in which the coal has been
placed loosely TO allow the oil to fame
freely. In about a quarter of an hour
really good fire is made, and if wood
is used it will ignite, Of course, in a

Mace an unkempt and unsightly appear

the rectangle. Each stone has name

line with the new-made grave. mere
twigs and branches have been ruoely
broken off until the symmetry OF the
hedge is utterly destroyed. Inc pine

verely. Evidently the relic-hunter had
been at work here. Disappointed IN
his search for tombstone to violate ne
had wrecked his revenge on the surround

it. Even on the day Of the poet S funeral
people pressed into the lot and robbed
the grave of all the flowers heaped upon
1t, and it was not until policeman was
dispatched there that the crowd could De
induced to stop their thieving.
Whittier expressly stated before his
death that he wished to have no differ
ent sort of a monument from that which
marked the graves of his relatives. He
left small sum. however. to keep IN
order that part of the cemetery where
he was buried and so very likely, in
time, the visitor may notice an improve

French Peasants.

M. Betham Edwards, in her "France
of To-day" speaks again and again OF
the benefits accruing from the owner
ship of land by the peaSantry. AS
native of England, she seems to have
been peculiarly impressed by this
feature of life across the Channel.
She writes with special enthusiasm
of Osse, "a remote Pyrenean village
admirably adapted for the study or
rural life" "a beautiful spirit OF
humanity" she declares, "a delicacy,
rare among the most polished socie-
ties, characterize these frugal sons
and daughters of the soil"
AS sordidness carried to the pitch
of brutality is often imputed to the
French peasant, let me relate an in
cident that occurred heWabouts not
long before my visit.
The land is minutely divided, many
possessing cottage and field only.
One of these small owners was sud-
denly ruined by the falling of rock;
his cottage cow and pig were de-
stroyed, Without saying a word, his
neighbors, like himself in very hum
BILE circumstances, made up purse
of five hundred francs, large sum
with such doners, and, too delicate
minded to offer the gift themselves,
deputed an outsider to do it anony-
mOuSly.
Another instance in point came to
my knowledge. This was of young
woman servant, who, during the i'll
ness of her employers, refused to
accept wages.
"YOu will pay me some other time,
said the girl to her mistress. 81 am
sure you can i'll afford to give me the
money now"
Peasant property, and rural life
generally, here presented to me some
wholly new features. One of these is
the almost entire self-suflcingness OF
very small holdings, their owners
neither buying nor selling, making
their little crops and stock almost
completely supply their needs.

He Could Not Take 1t.

The bicycle champion lay dying.
The grand physique seemed no ADLER

dark angel than the fragile frame Of
an infant. His great muscles were

Beside the bed sat a minister of the
gospel, come to cheer the last mo-

tighten the pain of the body with
balm for the departing spirit. He
held the big, bOny hand as he would

delicate touch the hot brow.

courts, open to the sky, are already
completed as to their walls, which are
faced inside with dazzling white tiles,
for the purpose of rejecting the great
est possible amount Of light through
the windows. The book stacks have
been completed and sections of the
build NJ contain 'ng them have been
loofed over. The masonry OF the ro-
tunda is all up, and the construction OF
the dome will be begun this fall. A
new kind of glass is likely to be adopted
for the skylights. Being formed on Il
sort of wire net, it cannot tumble and
do damage if broken. One of the most
remarkable things about this building is
that it will be finished at the appointed
time, four years hence, and the cost OF
it will come within the appropriation,
which was $1,000, 900. Nine tusts Of
famous writer's will occupy inches in
the window caps on the west front lcok-
ing toward the Capitol, but these liter
airy celebrities have not yet been Sc
lected. The keystone5 of the window
arches on the four faces of the structure
bear sculptured heads representing the
thirty-three types of races of mankind
recognized by ethnoogsts. They were
made from models and pictures at the
National Museum, under the direction
of Prof. Otis T. Mason.
Foreign Libraries.
The British Museum, though archi-
tecturally only an uncou.h as emblage
OF buildings, has the finest library in
the world. With one exception it is the
largest. In cosmopolitan interest it is
without rival, posse sing the best
Hungarian collection out OF the coun-
try, the best Dutch library out of Hol-
land, and, in short, the best library in
any European language outside OF
the territory in which the language is
vernacular The Chinese books num-
Der q, 600. The biggest library in ex-
istence is the Bibliotheque Rationale at
Paris, which has 800, 900 bound vol
umes. The oldest of great modern
libraries, it has had the aid OF several
kings and other powerful personages
since its formation. The beginning of
it was the collection of King John, the
Black Princes captive, who bequeathed
1t to his successor. Charles V. There is
no general catalogue for the use Of
readers.
The Vatican Library at Rome was
founded in the fifteenth century by Pope
Nicholas Y. However, it was based on
collections far more ancient, ana there
is evidence that pontiflcal library ex-
listed from the fifth century. The pres
ent building was erected by Sixtus V.
in 1888. 1t contains 900, GOO printed vol
umes and % ,000 manuscripts. 1t is

THE main reason why some men
have cross wives is because they arc
surly themselves.
THE man who robs bank wouldn't
do it if he looked to God every day
for what he needs.
THE man who has given up his sin
has given up everything that has
power to hurt him.
THE reason "a mean man will not
trust in God is because he thinks the
Lord is just like him.
