c,r,osl,ie. Of Grave Hobbing.

Under the laws of Draco which
YOU will remember as being the most
severe code ever drawn up, all grave
robbers were put to death without
trial The old Athenian laws put a
slave to death for disturbing a body
after interment; but in the case OF q
freeman a "confscation of a moiety
of his possessions" was the penalty.
Constantine decreed that woman
might obtain divorce if she could
prove that her husband had dis
turbcd the remains of the dead At
one time lin the time of the seventh
and eighth Henrys) the English law
held that 1T is deemed unlawful to
open a grave for second person, ex-
cept for husband or wife.
If have not been misinformed
grave robbers in this country only
lay themselve liable to q fine and i'm
prisonment for short time, unless It
can be proved that they took the
grave clothes along with the body
For this reason ghouls (real profes-
sionals) always strip the remains
stark naked before depositing them
in the long sack preparatory to
their removal to somo medical col.

How Rocks Grow,

Rocks do not grow in the sense
that plant grows. They may in.
crease by accretion and they NAV
undergo chemical change. The old
seabed being lifted up becomes sand
stone and limestone; the volcanic
ash and lava strewn over the nlains
becomes tufa, hard enough for build
ing stone. The pebbly shore of n
rlyer becomes conglomerate. The
simple mineral does grow, however
when 1t takes a crystal form. The
sparkling prism of quartz increases
trom an atom to crystal as large as
forearm by a process of addition and
assimilation, wonderfully slow b1t
beautifully regular exactly as crvs.

The king and queen Of Greece

AN almost complete quiet. After the
exchange Of greetings between the
kiDg and the civil aud military au
'horilies, the king aud queen drove
through the ruined streets to ascer
tain the extent Of the damage done
by the earthquake.
Thousands Of inhabitants followed
In silence the royal carriage.
Most Of the churches, for which
the city Ii celebrated, are wholly OF
partially wrecked. Hardly a fine
building on the main streets Is lef,
uniwured. Many must be recon-
slructed from the foundations before
they can he occupied. No effort
has been made yet to repair the
damage, as the mechanics fear Ia
work In the city and the owners are
that each day may
bring another violent shock.
The city was shaken daily by
light shocks and the Inhabitants
who fied from the city fear TO return
'or more than Nh hour or 10 at

The royal party will remain on
