Old Greek Painters.

The methods Of these ancient days
We're totally different from those of the
present day and were ev identity vastly
more durable. Panels of wood were used
to paint on, sycamore zld cypress, also
panels Of papier mache, and occasional
ly they were formed by gluing three
thiclnesses Of canvas together. These
panels We're usually abO at ii inches long
by inches wide. The artist used liquid
wax instead of oil o. mix the colors,
which were made, OF froyl vegetable,
but from mineral ST bstane es, and We're
of marvellous brillim cy and permanence
II lue powdered Iapis lazuli, green
NAL ichite, red oxide. Of iron, etc. The
colo.s were laid OF in patches. some-
what after the fasl iWi Of a mosaic, and
aftervyard blended with an instrument
called tie ccstruin, which appears to
have been q lancet s. naped spatula, long
handled, with ut one end curved point,
Mt the other a fir ely dentated edge.
With tic toothed cd se the wax could be
equaliz ed and smoo he'd, while the point
was ush for placiI & high lights, mark
ing lipa eyebrows, etc.
The final proc ,ss, which gives the
name eiicaustic to this kind of painting
was the burning in of the colors. Thi:
was done by the application of o heated
surface to the panel, though George
Ebers believes that in Egypt the heat O
the sun was pro badly all that was need
ed to complete the artists work

Dsmocrsts VIII Let It Alone,

Spr1nHnelu REGISTER.
The republican plan as to the judi
cial apportionment Is to try and get
the conference committees to submit
q report iavoring the passage Of the
bill with the emergency clause. The
reason will be that otherwise the bill
will be passed without it. and there
by there will be an uncertainty as
to the judicial system OF the state.
The reason should not have any
weight with any democrat. II the
judicial system Of the state is to be
thrown Into confusion let the blame
rest upon the republican majority in
the two houses. They have made
the most unfair spportionment ever
presented in the state in addition to
increasing the number OF judges I'M
necessarily. Out OF II circuits they
have given the democrats four. Gov.
Tanner, in his letter to Speaker
Curtis admits that the republican ma
jority in Illinois will 60 back to TWEEN
ty-five to thirty thousand. II this
is true then the democrats should
have at least eight Of the new cir
cults. But aside from all questions
of politics, the circuits are most I'M
equal-the democratic circuits being
large and with business to keep the
judges busy all the year round. The
republican circuits are not only
small in population. but number
OF them will not furnish business
enough to keep the judges busy one
third OF the time.
The republican members while
asking democrats to support this ex-
tremely partisan measure make nc
concealment Of their intention OF
making new congressional appor.
tionmont and new senatorial ap'
portionment.
They not only propose to rob the
democrats Of their just proportion
Of the judges OF the state, but they
also propose to rob them OF theil
just proportion Of congressman and
state legislators.

Leader Says the Trouble Is That There Arc
10000 Too Many Men.
Terre Haute, Ind, April 22.-The min
ers' convention devoted itself yesterday to
u discussion of the scale. John Kane, M
tional vice president Of Ohio, addressed
the meeting. He said the cause of the de-
pres sion in mining, as in every occupa-
ton, was an over-supply. There are over
100000 more men working or seeking
work in the mines than can profitably be
used. There are $50, 600 miners, all told,
in the United States. The most impor-
tant development of the days session was
the submission of a proposition from the
operators. They offer to pay the Hooking
Valley price Of 81 cents per ton, and ask
that day labor be reduced proportionately.
Where drivers are now receiving s1.SO
per day the proposed scale would reduce
them to Sl.65. In many places, however,
the miners are receiving but AZ cents.
The miners will take no definite action
regarding the scale until the conference
with the operators tonight. The men ex.
pressed themselves as unanimously in fa-
vor of close utilization with the Illinois

ERAPES AND THE APPENDIX.
Tho Little Seeds Are Not So Dangeruus -

Has Been elaine d.
Things have been said alb out the bane-
full and delicious juice of tie grape ever
since the olden time when Noah found
out about it and,came the, eby to grief,
but even before that men, ate grapes,
and only within; the lastt decadevhave
they been talked to about that. 1t is
only since surgeons began. to smake
money huntingdon grape seeds lin the
vermiform appendix that people have
been afraid to ,eat grapes and to eat
Them straight.
1t now appears that in all the thou
sands of cases far lous, and possibly in
some cases infamous, in which thisnlew
fashioned SURGICAL operation has been
performed there us not one cese in
which q grape seedNor any otheD little
bullet shaped thingthas been fund in
the vermiform appendix. The whole in
terror Of the appendicitis only big enough
toadmit q medium sized darn.n needle.
Melody knows what it ;ss there for, but
it m ust have been usefrl at some time
It is q case Of the surv: Nal of the unfit,
like'the wisdom teeth, which are of so
little use to most pee ple, and the ton
sils, which cause SO n iuch trouble now
and then.
The tonsils and the appendix are
both unused parts Of the body and pc
culiarly Liable to disease because they
are not strergthene by use. If infiam-
nation attacks the m, they are unable to
resist. Thus ma,Iy diseases which have
been ascri'oed to peritonitis or collie or
a mysterit us providence Of some kind
have been ,due TO the diseased condition
of this lit lie useless organ of the human
system, ar Il if the trouble had been dis
covered in time the appendix could have
been renewed, and allswould have been
well.
The remedy, therefore, is nottin avoid
ing grape seeds, which, do not cause the
trouble, but in keeping asrwell ard as
strong as possible, and in case of sud-
| den illness calling a reliable doctor,

parents, and his own father tried to have
him sent to Jail. But he persisted, and
for eight years labored among the high

ever, and after season of fasting and

try his luck among the low caste Hindoos.
+ His new venture was signal success,
and he made thousands of converts. Most
of them were made on what the major

pardon and forgiveness and az the same
time gives up demon worship and idolatry.
Quarters are secured in the village, officers
