Drug Store.
A deplorable state of affairs now
exists at Hartley, Ia, over the liquor
question. The saloons have been
closed which has caused farmers to
sign an agreement not to patronize
merchants that favor the closing Of
aloons and some of the business men
have brought into combat. These
actions will probably be great
detriment to the walfare of Hartley.

What the Vatican Contains.

On the whole, the Vatican may be
divided into seven portions. These are
the pontifcal residence, the Sistine and
Pauline chapels, the picture galleries
the library, the museums of sculpture
and archaeology, the outbuildings, in
Guiding the barracks of the Swiss
guards, and, lastly, the gardens with the
pope's casino Of these the Sistine
chapel, the galleries and museums and
the library are incomparably the most
important.
The name Sistine is derived from
Sixtus Nv. The library was founded by
Nicholas v, whose love of books was
almost equal to his passion for building.
The galleries are representative of
Raphael's work, which predominates to
such an extent that the. paintings of al.
most all other artists are of secondary i'm
portance, precisely as Michael Angelo
filled the Sistine chapel with himself. AS
for the museums, the objects they con-
tain have been accumulated by many
popes, but their existence ought perhaps
to be chiefly attributed to Julius II and
Leo <, the principal representatives Of
the Revere and Medici families.-F.
