Discoveries at Treves.

The excavations that have been going
on for months past on a plot of ground
belonging to Herr Schabb, a manufact-
urer at Treves have resulted in the
discovery of a Roman private house,
which will excite the interest of anti
quaries almost as much as the famous
public buildings at Augusta Treviro-
rum. The front of the house lies par
allel with the principal street Of the
old Roman city. A number of blocks
which served as pedestals for the wood

main The entrance is distinctly recog-
nizable between two buttresses and an
immense heap of stones. A long en-
trance hall running right through the
house, from front to back, is intersect-
ed by another corridor, so that the
gigantic building is divided into four
parts Side corridors lead into the
rooms. OF these the marble tesselated
bathrooms for hot and cold water and
warm air lie side by side and deserve
special mention The two latter were
supplied with warm air through sub

THE BLONDE WALKED.
How the Polite Street Car Corduc-
tor Was Revenged.

Harold Francis, one of the Record
Unions" bright correspondents, tells
the following good one:
The other day a handsome young lady
boarded street car. She wore a white
clinging lawn dress, and her pretty
pink and white face was set off by a
few hayward blonde curls and a large
straw hat covered with nodding roses.
Presently the conductor came through
the car with the familiar Fare,
please"
The young lady seemed wrapped in
thought, and paid little heed to him
In a few minutes the conductor re-
peatei his performance, and, having
given the lady plenty of time to re-
cover her breath and open her purse,
called out, Fare, fare!"
She seemed oblivious to her earthly
surroundings, and gazed with Mandon-
na-like expression upon the advertise
ments in the upper part Of the car
The conductor stopped in front of her
Did get your fare?" he said, politely.
Gentleman on the front platform
will ray my fare,' she answered, in
soft, liquid tones.
The conductor passed on, and tried to
find out which of the men on the plat
form was paying her fare. But there
was none. This well dressed, angelic
looking little creature had told false
hood. The conductor was at a loss as
to what to do. He loked at her again
through the pane of glass, and de
cided to let it pass.
When they came to the intersection
of two street car lines and he called
out transfers" he was surprised to see
this hrazen little thing put out her
hand for a transfer.
He hesitated for a moment. Should
he expose her falsehood to the rest of
the passengers? A happy thought
passed through his mind, and with a
knowing smile he said, as he passed
her, ooh. 1 gave your transfer to the
man on the front platform.
She didn't blush, or argue, or make
a scene, but tactfully answered, as she
stepped from the car, 80 kind of

What It Is Doing Toward Filling

Cure is taken internally, acting directly

foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in
doing its work. The proprietors have
