This constitutes the body. and, OF
course, the interesting portion Of the
plate, but in addition the names OF
three men are perpetuated and given a
value that their owners never anticipat-
ed would cling to them by being wit
nesses of the PRONUNCIATION Of this SEN
tence.
The names OF the witnesses and the
order in which they come are:
/. DANIEL Robani, Pharasee.
2. John Sorobable.
3. Raphial Robani.
1t is believe that twelve OF these plates
were engraved and sent to the various
tribes throughout Judea and over into
the Roman provinces Of Europe. The
remaining eleven are probably buried
in wildly separated points where they
never will be brought to the knowledge
Of mankind, or have long since been
destroyed.
The engraving on the plate is well
done; and Hebrew characters are GU,
deep and with perfect accuracy.

CHRlSTS SENTENCE.

II will probably be a surprise to
majority OF the people to learn that the
original death sentence passed upon
Jesus Christ is still in existence in the
form Of an engraved plate, dating from
the very day the sentence was pronounce
by Pontius PLATE, and which has been
retained through all these years as one
OF the most precious OF all relics OF the
Savior.
The sentence is engraved on plate
OF brass In the Hebrew language, and
on the other side are the following
words:
"A similar plate has been sent to each
tribe"
This particular plate was discovered
in the year 1920 in the city of Aquilla,
in the Kingdom OF Naples, by scien-
tiflc commission that had been appoint
ed to search the ancient city for an
tiquities known to have been kept there.
Evidence remained that that city had
been the repository OF many old Roman
records and other documents and me-
mentoes associated with the early Ro-
man Empire, and for this reason il was
especially made the object Of the com
missions inquiry.
The plate bore every evidence OF
genuineness, and accompanying it were
reliable documents, and among the re-
cords were references which placed the
authenticity OF the engraving beyond
question. The plate is now kept in the
chapel OF Caserta, little town twenty
miles north of Namples, where il is
contained in box OF ebony and shown
to curiosity-loving travellers; and many
voyagers enroute for Naples diverge
from their beaten track TO visit the
little chapel and look upon the everlast.

doctors simply do not know? There

The Happy Blond.

Oh, to be blond during the hot
weather. Brunettes may be nice and
sparkling and pretty in the winter, but
as summer girls they are not the unqual-
flied successes that their fair sisters are.
always thought would rather be fair
than dark. but it is only when summer
comes that this thought expands into a
positive conviction. Iactually yearn to
be a golden haired, blue eyed, fair
skinned maid in hot weather. A blond
may feel the heat just like other people,
but she has the happy faculty of being
able to conceal the fact from the world
at large. She can wear low neck dress
without fear, because she knows that
no matter how much she dances her neck
and face will still look as cool and white
as lily.
Now brunette cannot exert herself
the least bit without looking positively
greasy, and if there is any one thing that
takes the romance out Of girls life it is
a shiny nose. And the worst of it is
that all the powder in the world will not
help matters any. If you rub on little,
it melts like butter before the sun. and
if in your desperation you apply it in
wholesale quantities it cakes and gives
you complexion like the clown in cir
Gus, and that is anything but pleasing
to the girl, but very amusing to the world
at large. Philadelphia Times.
