Ayers Sarsaparilla enjoys the ex- traordinary distinction of having been the only blood purifier allowed an ex- hibit at the Worlds Fair. Chicago. Manufacturers of other sarsaparillas sought by every means to obtain a showing of their goods, but they were all turned away under the application of the rule forbidding the entry of patent medicines and nostrums. The decision of the Worlds Fair authori- ties in favor of Ayers Sarsaparilla was in effect as follows: Ayers Sarsapa- rilla is not patent medicine. It does not belong to the list of nostrums.

COCOANUT DAY.
An East Indian Ceremony to Pro-

INDIA. God Neptune is a most irnport-
ant deity, and it is always advisable to
Keep him in good humor There is no
saying otherwise how his friend Varuna

Day, OF course, marks the subsistence of
goa Neptune's playfulness, when the
fcary deity made some fun by leading
the floating palaces of the humans a
nice little dance on his frisky waves.
we set about god Neptune's propitia-
ton in right royal style. Brahmins. of
course, come in as the pivot of the af-
falr. We all of us-unless we are too
oJd or sickly or lame, or too much en-
crossed in self admiration, repair to
the seashore, taking with us a lot of
materials of worship, as an Offering to
the water deity. We move some dis
rance INTO the water, the Brahmin
sta nds in the middle and recites hymns.
and we, surrounding him, respectfully
offer our cocoanuts and flowers and
MIX and sugar-candy and fragrant
powders to the sea god. One supreme
honor still remains behind, and we rem
der It, We make lights and wave them
tefore the pacified deity. Most of us
.ormerly used to throw the cocoanuts
right into the sea, but as the Brahmins
took them UP and made them their own
we now in order to save trouble to the
holy men, give them straight into their
hands.
In kurrachee and other ports they
throW the cocoanuts into the sea, where

There is no particular reason why CO.
coanuts, of all nuts. should be offered
to the water deity. Any other fruits too
may be offered. Only the cocoanut is
the tropical fruit par excellence, and as
1t is pre-eminently "watery," we imag-

into a passageway which at one time
was the outlet and into this the animals
sought refuge to escape some great
catastrophe which evidently over
whelmed this part of the country ages
ago. This flood of clay came over them
and stopped the entrance. at the same
time covering the animals and perfectly
preserving their skeletons. This bed of
clay has been dug into only about
fifteen feet, and the deeper into it the
explorations are made the greater the
quantity of bones. Some of the bones
are what are termed recent; that is, of
animal species which now inhabit the
earth, while among others are ancient
and nearly all prehistoric. Among the
latter are the skulls of several cave
bears and bones of hyenas.
What is considered as most remark
able discovery in this cave is a flint ar
row head which was found imbedded in
the clay with the bones. This is surely
evidence of man in those remote times,
but whether this arrowhead was swept
III with the clay, or whether human
being also went into the cave to escape
the flood can never be fully known,
unless the bones of a human being are
found. The gentlemen in Washington
who examined this clay state that there
is no possibility of finding human bones
there unless they should have become
petrified or preserved between chalks,
which SO far have not been found in the
cave
One of the curious and important
features is the river which flows through
it. This stream is fifty feet wide, flows
very swiftly, and at a distance can be
heard the roar of falls No attempt has
been made to explore this river, as all
that have seen it are afraid Of being
drawn into some awful chasm and
killed. The water is very cold and
it is believed that it finds it's way
underground to the White River. The
possibilities along the river are so
great that an effort will be made to get
to its source, then a boat will be low
cred by rope and it is possible that a
connection with the outside world may
be found by way of the river. The OBJ
Jective point now should be the outlet,
which is believed to exist in Barry
County, thirty-five miles away. All at
tent1on is now centered on this point.
Parties should go from both directions.

A Superb Old Mosaic.

In the course of further excavations
in the island of Mclos by the director
and students of the British School at
Athens, one of the most important dis
CoverieS has been that of a mosaic
which is believed to be the finest yet
found in Greece. 1t seems originally to
have been about forty meters long and
tc have consisted of five panels, three
of which are ornamented with geometric
patterns and the other two with figure
subjects. very beautiful both in design
and color. On one of them are repre-
sented two vines with leaves and
grapes, among which birds and animals
are grouped, the other panel, with a
circular design, consisting of a series of
different fish, while each of the angles
holds a tragic mask, very finely treated.
The finer details of color are represent
ed with glass tesserae, while portions
of the black are laid in cleaning obsid-
ian, so that the whole has most brill
liant effect. More recently the excavat-
ors have come upon a series of graves of
the sixth century E. c., in one of which

tomb were found a series of gold leaves

fine subject in cameo. The excavations

is shortly expected in England, when
further details will be published. The

The Indiana Gas Belt

The growth in population and wealth
in the gas belt of Indiana is shown by
recent census taken of Madison Coun-
ty. Anderson, which had a population
Ct ABB in 1887 had 10.7S7 in 1890 and
2i,041 in 1896. Elwood poulation in
1887 of 115 but had 1000 in 1890 and
l1.132 in 1896. In 1887 Alexandria had
population of 491, but now has 6. I'D.
The population of the county in 1856
was less than the school population now
is. The increase in the valuation Of
property has more than kept pace with
the growth in population. In 1887 the
taxable property was valued at So, 937. :
SD, but last year 1t had increased to
S2c,994,I15. While the pressure of the
gas is gradually diminishing there is
believed to be enough to last several
years yet with reasonable economy.
