He gives twice who gives quickly. He who pays bill quickly doesn't pay twice, but he does a good thing and helps to pay some other bill. There fore all who can pay their January bills quickly ought to do so. Such payment will help business. It will encourage those who do business and who have their January bills to pay. The paying of bills is one of the unpleasant feat ures of life, but waiting for them to be paid is equally or more unpleasant, Many business man who has prompt ly sent out his polite bills is on the anxious seat for fear his debtors will not be as prompt and as polite as he has been.

.Ex.4lrTNATToN WEEK

At the beginning of new year
 people who are in business look over their accounts and take an inventory of their possessions. Thus they find out just how they stand and can go on intelligently. It might not be a bad idea for people who are capable of careful thought about business or any thing else to sit quietly down for an hour or two during the first week of this new year and find out just how they stand with themselves, their fel- low beings and their creator and pre- server Such an examination needs to he made with entire honesty, without undue self-love and without hypocrisy. The result of it would surprise many and might be a little discouraging to in most cases. What a curious fact it is that "the only thinking thing" Is too busy to give much thought to it's most important affairs. It can stop annually or seni-annually to figure out its relations to business, but 1t can't stop to contemplate its relations to the universe. It rushes on in a mad race after the possession of this or that trifIe until desire and power fail and ''life's poor play is o'er." And then its dead. cold hands can hold noth- ing of all they managed to grasp so eagerly, Dear brethren and sisters, after we get our business affairs straightened out this week, let's sit quietly down for an hour or two and see if we can't straighten ourselves out a little.

4 SACRED CoDFIsH PRoFANED.

4 SACRED CODFISH PR0FANED.
 Long. long ago the codtish waF much respected in Massachusetts. Ant well it might be, for it was a great hell to many of the people of that State It is of some account there in these days, but although it is still admitted into the best society it has not the i'm portance that it once had. And some of the members of the best society, whose present magnifcence is based on cod fish, are more than willing to have that fact forgotten. Such people and some others will sympathize with a profane and vulgar deed that has been done by those who have been preparing the new chamber in which the representatives of the Massachusetts legislature will meet. In the old room, high above the heads of the representatives, hung n codfish, which came to be known as the sacred codfis1l It was put there as long ago as 17S4. On Wednesday, March 17th of that year, John Rowe, a member from Boston, moved permis- sion to hang the codflsh in the house as a memorial to the importance of the codfshery to the welfare of the State
 The motion prevailed, and shortly after the emblem was placed in position, and there it has remained undisturbed through all the vicissitudes of the years which have intervened. Once it was re- painted, but it has never been taken down from the iron rod by which it is held in position. MT. Rowe, who pre- sented the figure to the commonwealth, was well known citizen of Boston and a conspicuous patriot, being associated with Samuel Adams, James Otis, John Hancock and other leaders of the period. He was interested in commerce and an extensive property-owner along the waterfront, Rowes wharf and con- tiguous property being among his pos sessions. He died on February 1T, 17S7
 Now, after hanging over the delibera- tions of the Massachusetts representa- lives for more than one hundred years, the sacred codfish is to so hang no longer. The people of Massachusetts appear to be willing that this emblem of their early struggles and triumphs should be put away in some corner where it will not too conspicuously

 The new moire that is called by so many different names is a stuff which looks like mourning, with all its gloss and wavelets chastened by the dulness of crepe. It is stiff as a board, has a lovely crackle and lends itself remark ably well to elaborate enrichment of tinsel embroidery and spangling. It is made up in skirts and in capes, but not often in bodices. Black satin is em- ployed in some very handsome cos tunes enriched with various forms of jet trimmings and frightened with vel- vet. In the accompanying sketch there is shown an example of this treat ment dahlia mirror velvet trimming the satin and relieving It's sombreness. The wide gored skirt remains plain, but is stiffened throughout and lined with striped taffeta. The fitted bodice hooks in front and has a seamless back of bias satin, and the yoke Is made in one and fastens on the shoulders Below the yoke are two narrow jet bre- telles, and the yoke is bordered with heavy jet galoon and fringe. A folded collar is of dahlia velvet and gigot sleeves of the dress material.

Dr. Max Ohnefalsche Richter will soon publish the results of his recent ex- cavations in Cyprus. These have been carried on at Tamassos under the direc- 4ion of the Berlin Museum, and at Idalion with funds furnished directly by the German Emperor. At Tamassos the excavations began in the Metropolis, where in the oldest graves great deal of hand made pottery was found, of fhe same kind as that unearthed at Hissarlik by Schliemann. Three royal tonnbs of peculiar architecture were dis covered. in one of which was found a great iron sword adorned with silver bosses such as Homer describes. One of the stone tombs is built in exact imi- ration of a wooden structure with roof, beams, blind windows, with carved sills and doors, procedure almost without 4 parallel. The finds belong to all periods of Greek history from 2,0O0 B. C., or earlier, to the later Roman Empire Dr. Richter is convinced that the ear Hest immigrants to Cyprus were not Semitic, but of the same race as the inhabitants of southern and central Europe.
