The Influence of the Roman Pantheon

For five centuries the Roman world turn
ed to the Pantheon, till out of it arose new
art in Constantinople. Then in the fifteenth
century, at the revival, the humanist artists
turned again to this same great work, 1t
gave rise first to the dome Of Florence, and
then to the dome of St. Peters, $50 years
later From St. Peters the dome spread
all over the world--the Pantheon and the
Invalides at Paris, St. Pauls in London,
the capitol at Washington, the Isaac
church at St. Petersburg are mere imita
tions of St. Peters And thus from the
Pantheon has sprung the architecture
which from Chilli to Chicago, from the
British islands to the Turkish empire from
St. Petersburg to Sicily, is seen in thou
sand varieties and in ten thousand ex-
amples -Fortnightly Review.

as the Grape myrtle proves hardy.
Though killed to the ground, it will

much farther north than Philadelphia.
Several correspondents write that it is
not always killed down even so far
north as Philadelphia. One at Chestnut

Among the novelties is a dress

goods, which is then cut ont and
made up in the usual fashion. The

The Bankers Dream.

The hundreds of thousands of low
priced publications that are being
issued from the press treating the
many phases of society and its
anomalies, must in a few years
exert powerful influence on the
public mind. Some of the strongest
writer's of the day ale engaged in
this work, and their writings are
such reflections of the glaring
abuses that have like poisonous
parasites attached themselves to
social and political life, that their
better elements will revolt in such
overwhelming numAersAssro force
reforms that will stuff off, the can
cerOus growths which are destroy
ing the morals, and liberty of the
nation. Almost if not all of these
parasitical growths are traceable to
the Rothschild usury system called
national banking, in this country,
which has settled down on the
nation and people like a deadly
miasma.
Among the most powerful publ
cations of this kind which hos
recently appeared is "The Bankers
Dream" a small volume, by Thos.
V. Proctor, and issued by Progress
sive Book Publishing Co., of Vine
land, N. j. The first part is vivid
presentation of the conspiracy of
the money power, from its initial
attack on this country in 1862 to
1898. Step by step the conspiracy
is traced, through its developments,
when the author by allegory con-
tinues the conspiracy to its natural
results, if not checked, to 1912,
when all its horrible denoument is
presented. The book is worth
many times its price. % cents, to
any one who is studying the social,
business and political panorama of
the day.

High backed chairs are becoming,
a fact which has done much toward
making them popular. Carvings

is funny to see how some women
know this and pose accordingly.

Don't forget to wear rubbers on
damp days.
DON'T fail to walk three or four
miles a day.
Don't expect to rise refreshed
from an unventilated sleep.
Don't expect to be free from colds
if you sleep in a draught.
Don't eat heartily Immediately
before beginning any brain work.
Don't lose sight of the fact that
cool heads and warm feet form a
very hygienic combination.
Pillow cases and sheets of fine
cotton, as well as those of linen,
are hemstitched nowadays.
Fall hats tilt either up in front
or on one side, so how is one to

gives such jaunty air to the
wearer, with the little bow of ribbon
or bunch of flowers nestled down
on the hair.
Printed velvets are novelty of
the season. They have much the
appearance of being hand painted,
and are charming in combination
with satin or cloth. Black satin
coats are made gorgeous creations
by the addition of cuffs and revers
of this velvet. The velvet is seen
on many dark shades and the de-
sign is usually in pale tinted
flowers.

A Significant Departure,

With the departure of another year
when a review is made of the condition of
affairs, it is only right that some thought
be given to the physical body which en-
ables everyone to battle with life's prob.
lem and figure for themselves the profit or
loss on the trial balance sheet. Though
the bank account may be large and each
ones material gain be great, it would not
be surprising ifit suddenly dawns upon
many that good health has been greatly
impoverished by the low condition of the
blood. 1t is in this state that the Tactic
acid in the vital fluid attacks the fibrous
tissues, particularly the joints, making
known the local manifestations of rheu-
matism. Thousands of people have found
in Hoods Sarsapsrilla the great blood
purifier, positive and permanent cure
for rheumatism.
