copies Of the originals, and explains
that ST. was led to set about their
collection by reading one day the sur
prising statement that "Ilaied and
Odessae translated Euripides." We
give few OF the choicest gems OF
her collection, In some OF which the
outcropping OF the English idea that
all history converges on the British
Isles is almost startling:
Esau was man who wrote fables
and who sold the copyright to pub
Usher for bottle of potash.
The Jews believed in the synagogue
and had their Sunday on Saturday,
but the Samaritans believed In the
Church OF England and worshiped in
groves of oak, therefore. the Jews had
no dealings with the Samaritans.
Titus was Roman Emperor-sup-
posed to have written the Epistle to
the Hebrews-his other names was
Oates.
Oliver Cromwell was man who
was put into prison for his inter
ference In Ireland. When he was In
prison he wrote 1.-The Pilgrims Prog
ress" and married lady called Mrs.
O'Shea.
Wolsey was a famous general who
fought In the Crlmean war. and who,
after being decapitated several times,
said to Cromwell: "Ah, IL had only
served you as you have served me, 1
would not have been deserted in my
old age"
Perkin Warbeck raised a rebellion
in the reign of Henry Will He said

people.
The heart is comical shaped bag.
The heart Is divided into several
parts by fleshy petition. These

OF the heart is between tee lungs.
The work of the heart is to repair
the different organs In about half a
minute.

A fort is place to put men in, and a
fortress place to put women in.
Hydrostatics Is when mad dog
bites you. 1t Is called hydrophobia

Few People Satisfied with Money Alone.
AS a matter of fact, the chief i'm
preston produced by great wealth,
even in America, is simply curiosity,
not admiration, hardly even envy.
There are many things that people
really value more than wealth at any
time-perhaps, thinks Harper's Ba-
Ear, valuing wealth only as a means
for these things. In youth people
prize amusement, pleasure, love; and
wealth is thrown away recklessly for
the sake of such ends. After the
maturer tastes are developed, people
have no objection to wealth for the
sake Of other aims which it may pro-
mote, but it is not a substitute for
those aims. An artist loves art, the
man of science loves science, the
student loves study, the inventor
loves invention, the domestic man
loves home. Even the man of action
loves action mainly as thing attract
| i've in itself. He would readily &C
cept wealth as a means Of achiev-
ing his ether purposes, but he would
not sell those purposes for wealth.
The proof OF this is that he does not;
indeed, he often impoverishes him
self for his own pursuits. Beyond q
very InuueraJD account" wrote Cole
ridge, Il regard money as real evil. y
The man of other pursuits knows
that one cannot possibly be very rich
and carry on those other pursuits
also, so engrossing is the mere care OF
property, and so difficult and absorb
ing is the wise use OF it. Many a
prominent artist or author has beer
simply ruined for the purposes fol
which he was created by becoming
heir TO a large estate; not that 1t de
moralized him otherwise, but it lief,
him no time for his natural work
Volumes have been written on thu
suppression of genius through pow
erty, but very little has yet been sale
on the wrecking OF genius through
wealth.
