immortality which is not absent from the literature of any people who hava advanced far enough to record their as- pirations.
 Books on astrology and magic took up many shelves in these old libraries. Whenever the king was in doubt h. sent to his soothsayefs and wise men, who consulted the stars and then went to the libraries for the interpretation. From 3. peculiar aspect of ths planet Jupiter, they learn that while 1t lasts mo foreigner will rule in Chaldea, but tyranny will be divided against self, justice will reign, a. strong sovereign will govern. Th= landowners and the king will be firmly established in their rights; obedience and tranquility will reign in the land" One of the oldest kings. Sargon, made a collection of books on magic. His encyclopedia of the subject which filled seventy clay tablets became a standard authority and was consulted by the astrologers whenever the king called on them to interpret his dreams or to advise him how the aspects of the planets bore on his plans for the future of the state.
 It was doubtless in such library as this that 'the Wise Men of the East" who came to Bethlehem were educated. If thsy we're magicians it is entirely possible that they may have studied over and. over again such clay ency- clopedia as that of Sargon. And if, as our learned men discipher its fragments as they are uncovered by the spad= of the explorer, it seems to us absurd it is never to be forgotten that it had the whole of our civilization, our very high est scis sntific attainment, involved in it as the acorn involves the oak

Only Man Living Who Saw Napoleon Buried

Only Man Living Who Saw Napoleon Buried From the Chicago Times-Herald.
 When a man has reached the ripe age of 97 he has a pardonable pride in mak- irg century run and laudable am bition to end his days with an sven record. AS general thing, however, the man or woman who reaches those advanced years has lost both the pride and ambition which make an effort at living on possibility. This is not the case with one respected nonagerarian who lives in Detroit Mich, and whose age is coincidental with the year, he being born in 1900. Capt. Francis Mar tin, U. s. N, has lived along easily without any thought of perpetuating his days beyond the average record of man. until having passed the ninety seventh milestone, he looks not forward, but lives in the present or busies him self with memoriss- and Capt. Mar tins memories are worth much to their possessor. He is the only man now liv- ing who was at Napoleons funeral on the lonely island of St. Helena. He has sailed into nsarly every navigable port onltl1e face of the globe up to the year 1S30 sIe was the friend of Audubon, the famous ornithologist. He fought pirates on the high seas in 1924. In 1886 he.took part in the Seminole Indian war. In 1882, after making a record as a master of sailing craft on both sides of the Atlanltic,- Capt. Martin en- tered the United States marine service. receiving his first commission from An drew Jackson. In the following year he was stationed at Charl sston S. G. during the exciting times of nullifica- ton. He participated in the Mexican ading fleet cruising off the Mexican ports.

OLD GLORY OF THE F. F. W'S.
Virginia Womanhood Is Unchanged But the Men
 Are Degenerating.

From the St. SLouis Globe -Demc ccrat. On a night the past week the annual ball, i-he season evert, was given at White Sulphur Springs. Virginia wo- manhood was on exhibition, and a. mag rlfceat display 1t YVES. Powdered, court plastered, garbed in the styles of CO., lonfal days, ths:e daughters Of Virginia trooped in from the cottages till they fill ed the spacious Iball.Sem. The floor was cleared and the high-bre1 damsels nov cd through the stately measures of minuelt.I The sight was one to warm the blood of a Puritan. There is no degsn- eracy in the Virginia woman. On the feminine side the F. F. V. is @ living realty.
 Our girls" said an cld Virgin.ian, sit ting in a corner of the eosrn and follow ing with kiriIng eyes the indescribalble graceful sweep of the long lines over the flcor," are bred and trained just as carefully as they were wnen Virg mia was al. tle zenith of her glory.

 Once mere rthe lo1g lines formsd and swept dawn he room. The gentleman of the cd school forgot 10 finish his seuD- tence as he joined in the vigorous ap- plaiiae.
 What Is the matter with the Virginia men?" was asked of a lady in whose vel-;1 flow the best of he Cavalier straans, bull who has lived long enough to have grown blunt Of speech.
 ''Whiskey," she refli-d without hsSi- tation or qualification.
 The gentleman of the old school shook his head ilssrebfully as he added:

 While Virginia wcmanhood is as g.o- rious as ever, Virg mia manhood is to a degree diaappcirt Ing. But the expla- na'.ion is got altogether just. One need not be long a traveller in this land to discover th3s go where he will, north west CT south, he VIII find the male Var- ginian filing positions of mark in the community.

REMEMHIR THE POOR.

II Is rare that Norfolk is visited by
such extreme cold weather as that which
has been upon Us for the past three or
four days, and at this time thought
naturally turn to those in our midst
upon whom the hard weather falls with
extreme severity. The winter season Is
always hard at the best for those whose
means are scant, and 1t Is doubly so for
the children of want. Every community
has Its poor. and In time like this
those who are blessed with this worlds
goods should not turn n deaf ear to the
appeals for help. In Norfolk there are
those to-day who stand in great need of
help and are cold and hungry. Want
sits at many a table and no relief IL at
hand. It's sad picture to draw-that
men. women and children should suffer
Tor want of little coal or a few
blankets to keep away the freezing
winds and at the same time feel the
pinch Of hunger, and yet more than one
home presents such u picture In Nor
folk to-day.
These facts should strongly appeal to
| those who are blessed with plenty. They
give doubly who give quickly.
