pleasant to compare notes of travel"
Bernard was not slow to avail him
self of this opportunity, and for two
bright, brief weeks he walked, talked,
drove and chatted with the charming
woman whom he had once sighted.
What blind fool he had been! 1t
was Clarice he loved-Clarice he had
always loved. She was the boys
fancy and the mans ideal. 1t was
this cultured, interesting woman who
suited him, and not the faded, frivo-
1ous Grace. He grew mad with pain
and rage as he realized his position.
He walked into the parlor one after
noon, where Clarice was playing soft
ly.
ssDo not let me disturb you," he
said, as she half rose from the piano.

soul soothed by music. Are the ladies

She played on softly, her dark,

Suddenly he crossed over to where
she sat.

him, and her voice was very hard as
she said:
ssMr. Norton, can not excuse this
behavior. I loved you once very
dearly, but you made me ashamed of
that love and cast you out. I have
for three years thought of you as

A RUMOR SETTLED.
Some Said That it Could Not
be Done.
ALI Waited with Deep Interest and
BreathleeSS Anxiety.
Proved Mighty and Invincible Con-
querer at Last.

A rumor had gained circulation that the
we'll known Edward t. Feron, Esq, of 507
East 81 St., New York City, was utterly brok-
en- down in health, had become unable to at
tend to his duties and was really in condi-
tion beyond cure.
Over twenty doctors had examined and
treated his case, and all were forced to give
up and acknowledge that his case was beyond
their skill.
Then the remark was made that here a
test case for the great and popular medicine,
DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve RENE
dy. 1t is OF course widely known fact that
this wonderful remedy rarely if ever fails to
cure, but could even it's marvellous curative
powers restore health in this most serious
case?
The Nervura was used and everybody
watched it's effects with deep interest and al
most breathless anxiety.
We will give Mr.. Ferons own version of the
affair.
"For five years." he said, 81 have been run
ming down. gradually losing my health and
strength lat last got very bad and was troub-
led with pains in my back and around my
heart.

The Old Country Road.

Where did it come from and where did it gof
That was the question that puzzled us so,
AS we waded the dust of the highway that
flowed
Bv the farm, like river,the old country road.
We stood with our hair sticking up thro' the
OF our hats as the people went up and went
down,
And we wished in our hearts, as our eyes
fairly glowed,
We could find where it came from-the old
country road.
We remember the peddler who came with his
pack
Adoyvn the old highway and never went back;
And we wondered what things he had seen as
he strobe
From some fabulous place up the old country
road.
We remember the stage drivers look of de-
light,
And the crack of his whip as he whirled into
sight,
And we thought we could read In each glance
he bestowed
A tale of strange life up the old country road.
The movers came by like ship in full sail,
With a rudder behind, in the shape of pail,
With rolIicking crew, and a COW that was
towed
With a rope on her horns, down the old coun-
try road.
And the gypsies-how well we remember the
week
They camped by the old covered bridge, on
the creek
How the neighbors quit work, and the crops
were unhoed
TIL the wagons drove off down the old coun-
try road.
oh. the top of the hill was the rim of the
world,
And the dust of the summer that over it cLr1-
Was the curtain that hid from our sight the
abode
OF the fairies that lived up the old country
road.
The old country road can see it still flow
Down the hill of my dreams,a as it did long ago.
And wish even now 1 could lay off my load.
And rest by the side of that old country road

An Interesting Calculation.

The age of person and the month in
which he was born may be discovered as
follows: First you ask him to go to tn
other end of the room to prevent your
seeing what he is going to write. Then
you ask him to put down the number of
the month in which he was born and
multiply it by 2, then add to the sum,
and multiply the latter by 90; add his
age to the product, then deduct 365, and
add 115 to the remainder. Suppose he
is 40 years of age and was born in Feb
ruary, the computation might stand
thus: Two multiplied by 2 equals 4, plus
5 equals 8, multiplied by 80 equals $50,
plus 40 equals 400, minus 365 equals 1874,
plus 115 equals 249. The last two fig
ures indicate the age-viz, 49-and the
first figure (2) February, tho second
month of the year. You simply ask the
person to state the result of the calcula-
ton and then declare that he was born
in February and is 40 years Of age.
Experiment with this as often as you
please, and it is sure to work, provided
you do it correctly.-Exchange.

How the Writings of the Egyptians werO
Preserved For All Time.

How the Writings of the Egyptians WerO
Preserved For All Time.
The clay of which the Tell Amarna
tablets are composed differed greatly in
different regions. DIR. Bezold says: Gin
color the tablets vary from light to
dark dust tint and from flesh color to
dark brick red The nature of the clay
of which they are made sometimes indi-
Gates the countries from which they
come. No. 1, draft of letter from
Amenophis III to Kallimmasin, is made
of f 1y kneaded Nile mud. Others are
of the dark red clay which is met with
in the north of Syria. Five of Ribadda's
letters are written ON the yellow clay
which is common on the Syrian coast.
The tablets from Shubandi, Widya and
Shuardata contain fragments of flint"
Of the shape of the tablet she says:
'The greater number are rectangular,
and few are oval, and they differ in
shape from any other cuneiform docu-
ments known to us. Some are fat on
both sides, some are convex on both sides,
and some are pillow shaped. Compare
the name given to such tablets by the
Arabs, mekhadid or pillows
The tablet, having been kneaded into
shape, was inscribed while the clay was
damp by the use of a wooden style, and
the diverse having been written the tab
let was supported by some means while
the back was in use. In the case of some
cuneiform tablets, holes are found in the
corners, which were made by pins Of
wood, on which they rested, so as to pre-
vent the written surface from being OBJ
liberated while the reverse was being in
scribed. But these pinholes do not seem
to occur in the present collection.
Some of the letters are divided into
paragraphs by ruled lines, which are,
however, not always truly horizontal.
The royal letters, which are the most
carefully written, have we'll shaped SYM
bols in true horizontal lines, but many
of the tablets from Syria seem to have
been hastily written and are often very
crooked. The care, however, that was
taken by the scribe is evidenced by the
corrections which he has introduced of
unfinished words, to which syllable or
more is added by insertions between the
lines, while in other cases words, or even
a whole line, have been erased by
smoothing out the writing, other signs
having been substituted, or in some
cases the space has been left blank.
When, therefore, translators who have
found difficulty in understanding what
was written have supposed that the
fault lay with the carelessness of the
original scribe, we can only regard such
a supposition as indicating the self suf-
ficiency which is common fault among
a certain class of modern scholars, who
are convinced that if there be any error
it cannot be their own.-Edinburgh Re-
view.

English Funeral Etioue.te.

There is one division of English eti-
quette which strikes an American as
worthy of note, and that is in connec-
ton with the dead. On the day of a
funeral every house in the immediate vi
cinity has the blinds lowered until the
last carriage has passed. Every boy is
taught to lift his hat as the hearse goes
by, whether it be Sc funeral car of the
noble or the paupers hearse.
During the interval between the death
and the time that the body is removed,
often a week, no shouting must be in
dulged in by the children of the neigh
borhood, and no games must be played
near the desolated home The merest
acquaintance sends card by a servant
bearing message of sympathy, but there
is no intrusion upon the mourners ex-
cept by the most intimate friends. Those
who attend the funeral services always
wear black gowns, bonnets and gloves,
and all letters of coincidence must be
written upon black edged paper and in
closed in an envelope to match.
English ladies do not go to the grave,
though there have been some notable ex-
ceptions during the last few years in the
cases of wives of prominent men. Their
departure from the old custom is one of
many indications that English women
are preparing to take their rightful place
in the world-that they are no longer
content to be regarded as helpless crea-
tures-but may the day be far distant
when they shall lose the gentle courtesy
which is the charm of the English home.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years was supposed to
be incurable. For great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced it in
durable, Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure

Played and Lost.

A slight, paIe-faced girl sat silently
toying with piece of needle work on
the low porch of her mothers house;
a handsome young man lay stretched
at her feet. On the lawn another
young couple were engaged in a game
of croquet. The SUMS last CLEAN
lighted up Grace Munson's face with
halo of beauty, and Bernard Norton
looked at her with undisguised admi-
ration.
''There is nothing SO lovely as a
lovely woman" he said aloud.
The pale cheek of Clarice Burton
flushed as she quickly glanced at the
speaker. 1t was the third time within
the hour that he had referred to her
cousin Grace's beauty.
s'Grace is indeed lovely" she said.
81 would give half of my life to be as
beautiful"
"And L would give half of my fort
une to have you 500
No sooner were the words uttered
than Norton would have given much
to recall them; but he had spoken uu
thinkingly. Clarice shrank as though
she had been struck, arose quickly
and went into the house.
81 am in a pretty fix now," Norton
muttered, as he arose and walked
across the lawn. 'That was a nice
speech for fellow to make to the
girl he expects to marry. And she is
as proud as Lucifer, too-high- strung
as she is plain, and that is saying
great deal, by Jove! I never noticed
her lack of beauty so much before
Grace came. A pity one can't find all
things combined in one woman! Won
der if | ought to apologize! Oh, well,
Pm going away in ten days, and she'll
forgive and forget. Absence makes
the heart softer" And with this con-
selling thought he strolled on to join
Grace Munson, whose companion was
Just taking leave.
Grace was like a delicate flower,
sparkling with the dew of morning.
She had soft blue eyes, an exquisite
complexion, and golden hair. Alto
gether she made a picture of rare
beauty, and it was no wonder that
Bernard Norton found pleasure in
merley looking at her.
That evening Clarice did not appear
in the drawing room, and Norton was
free to devote himself to her lovely
cousin. Mrs. Barton observed his
conduct with displeasure; from the
first she had not approved of her
daughters sutton, and wondered what
attraction the careless, frivolous
young man held for her sensible Clar-
ice.
Next morning a note was handed
Norton. It's contents filed him with
mingled annoyance and relief.
''When you receive this,'' Clarice
wrote, II shall have gone to my aunt
for time; you do not love me, Ber-
nard, and it is best for our engage
ment to end. Be happy in your own
way, and be very sure shall in mine.''
That was all. Bernard's self esteem
was seriously wounded by the epistle
But he consoled himself with the tho't
that he was now free to WOO the
charming Grace, and at the end of
the month made formal avowal of
love to her.
81 have loved you ever since we
metz he said. "Clarice saw this and
generously set me free" And Grace,
who had become very much enamored
of her sutton, gave him the answer he
craved.
Two weeks later Mrs. Barton and
Ciar1ce were on the way to Europe,
and Bernard was trying TO submit to
the stern decree of Grace's father.
