The Buried City Of copan.

.
4 In the central part of the ruins of
Copan, Honduras, are the great py-
ramidal foundations on which the
temples arose. The principal ruins
are grouped about a main structure,
a vast irregular pile. rising from
the plain in steps and terraces and
terminating in huge terraced eleva-
tions, each topped by the remains
of a temple. The summit of the
highest of these is about 100 feet
above the level of the river which
laps the foundations of the fallen
structures. Only the foundations
and parts of the lower walls of the
temples now remain in position, and
these are marked with many hero
glyphio inscriptions. Surrounding
the temples and palaces to the dis
lance of a mile or more on every
side are the remains of stone houses,
probably the dwellings of thenobles
and wealthier citizens, and beyond
these are found innumerable stone
foundations without any remains of
superstructure. 1t is conjectured
that on these stood wooden houses,
the dwellings of the poorer classes,
of which every trace has disappear

Wherever postal savings banks art
in operation women are among the
most appreciative patrons of the sys
tenn. AS a rule women are more care
full of small sums than men and seem
to have a more practical realization Of
the value of such accumulations. In
many families it is only foresight OF
the wife that leads to provision being
made against a day of adversely.
The desire of women more gener-
ally than Of men is for place of alb
solute safety for their small savings
rather than high rates of interest.
Consequently they are especially APP
preciative of the stability which the
postal savings bank afford. Prob
ably congress could do no other one
thing that would so commend it to
the women of the country as would
the establishment of a postal savings
bank system. Chicago Record.

The Bicycle Crowds Out the Accordion.


A decline in tie sale of accordions
and some other musical instruments
in this country is attributed to the
introduction of the bicycle. 1t is
said that persons who would other
wise have bought an accordion or
some such instrument have bought
instead a bicycle, even if they have
had to do it on installments. To the
same cause is attributed a decine
in the sale of sheet music. Teach
ers accustomed to buy for their pu-
pills buy now less than they did, the
pupils devoting less time to the pi
