Hidden TREASURE.

There is no subject more fascinating than
the search for hidden treasure, and it is one
which commends itself beyond the merely
occult and mysterious by a certain reason,
ableness which appeals to common sense MS
well as to the imagination, for doubtless
there IL great deal OF hidden treasure In
the world still remaining to be discovered,
while we may infer that vast deal has
been actually found and appropriated to
the uses of its fortunate discoveries The
old fable OF the dying man who so heart
lessly deceived his children by the story Of
the treasure buried in his gardens hows
anyhow that such deposits were not I'M
common in the remote era of the fabulist,
and indeed the buried treasure forms q val
liable item in the stock properties Of the
dramatist, the fabutist and the story teller
from the very infancy of their arts.
The classic dramatists did not fail to
make use OF such Il convenient expedient ne
the discovery Of buried treasure, which was
In itself an incident not altogether beyond
the lines OF impossiblity. Recorded in.
stances indeed Of such good fortune must
necessarily se rare, as the prudent treasure
finder then, as now, must have been espe-
ciaiiy careful to keep his secret to himself.
But occasionally such an incident glides into
history, IA in the case Of Julius, the father
of Herodes Atticus, who discovered an i'm
mense treasure buried under an old house.

vastness of the treasure precluded any at.
