A soldier who Complained.

Illustrating the earnestness which seizes
men, oven in sham battle, was an incident
which occurred near the lower bridge.
A lieutenant, with a small detachment,
had been sent out to do some reconnoiter-
ing. A company upon a hilltop had seen
the detachment and had fired upon 1t. The
lieutenant was quite sure that such action
was not to DO expected and he resented 1t
hosly. Seeing General Fitzgerald stand
ing near, the lieutenant rushed up to him
us the first officer of higher rank he could
reach. With great indignation the lieuten
ant said:
General, went down there with de-
tachment and those men fired on me.
With an impassive face and manner
that did not betray his secret amusement
the general replied:
"Do you mean to say they fred on your
"Yes, sir, they did"
"Well, why didn't you fire backp'
"OhP' said the lieutenant, with some
conf usion and astonishment, and then he
drew himself up, salutod and retired with

WHEN THE HEART is HEAVY.
Fight Against Allowing Yourselves to BE
Submerged by Personal Griefs.


"There is always remedy for heavy
heart, 4" writes Ruth Ashmore in the March
Ladies' Home journal. sit may be In
work-it oftenest is. 1t may be In think
ing out the joys that have been given to
you and the sorrows from which you have
been saved. 1t may be in helping others
by sympathy or in whatever way help Is
most needed. But the heavy heart can al.
ways be made light II self Is forgotten and
the needs of others are remembered and,
as far as possible, relieved. Not one OF us
can learn to become light hearted In day
or a week or month or a year, for 1t Is
the lesson of life, this knowing how to lift
our hearts up and give from them help
unto those who are in need. 1t Is good
fight, this one against allowing oneself to
be submerged In personal griefs-it is a
good fight, and out of 1t you can come
conqueror II you will.
"Do you intend to give up the fight and
fall by the wayside overcome by heavy
heart or to go along through life as brave
woman shouldf You must decide this
early in your life. And you will, feel
sure, decide to do that which Is right, and
then your heart will never be heavy nor
your conscience disturbed, unless you fall.
And when you fall. thank God, you can
always rise again II you keep up brave
heart. ~

BACCHYllDES.
Lost to the World For Fourteen Centuries,
Rescued From the Tomb a Year Ago.

Lost to the World For Fourteen Centuries,
Rescued From the Tomb Year Ago.
Antiquity had its own strange ways OF
handing down its wealth-ways SO strange
that we recover our legacies only by rob-
bling its tombs, Professor j. Irving Manatt
tells us in March Atlantic. The sepulchers
of Mycene have at last told us the actual
life story of Homer's localized Achaians,
whilo tho tombs of Egypt are found to be,
sacred and secular, the archives of un-
counted generations. 1t Is to their fune-
real etiquette we owe the recovery of Bac-
chyliaes and of many another precious
scroll. The old Egyptian thought to while
away eternity with his favorite authors
and so took with him to the long home
not only his book of the Dead but stock
of light reading-tales, love stories and
the like.
Such bursting forth of genius from
the dust" was looked for when the buried
cities of Campagna came to light and
Wordsworth uttered this prophetic note:
Oh, We who patiently explore
The wreck of Herculanean lore,
What rapture could ye seize
Some Theban fragment or unroll
One precious tender hearted scroll
OF pure Simonidesl
il naughty Time has falled as yet TO
grant the letter of the poets wish, the es-
s,nco of 1t is taking shape In accomplished
fact Instead Of single scroll of the elder
koian, the younger is now restored TO us
In u full score of his sweetest songs. Some
- centuries ago there died at Luxor man
who loved Bacchylides so well that the
poet must needs bear him company beyond
the bourne.
That the dead man thumbed the pre-
cious volume in the tomb we cannot say,
but it was in safe keeping. Meantime CIV
cry copy above ground would seem to have
perishod within the four centuries follow
ing. At least for any trace we can get OF
him beyond tho hundred odd lines that
had lodged here and there as other ancients
quoted them to point moral or adorn a
tale Dacchylides had been lost to the world
for 400 years, until the tomb Of Luxor
9ayo up its treasure year ago.

va Strangely Inserestins Things Rrought

vS' osrsngoiy Aneoresting Thfngs Thought
to Light by the Excsvstions.
There are many reasons to account for
the marvellous attraction with which
Pompeii has fascinated not only antiquari-
ans, but the most casual travellers who
have visited the city. First of all, the city
was covered not with lava, but with q
shower of light ashes like an impsipable
powder, varied with frequent layers of
light pumice stone, the individual pieces
of which scarcely average the size of pea
nut, while the torrents Of rain which ao-
companied the eruption excluded all
chance Of damage by fire even II mean
descent material had reached the city, of
which there is only slight evidence. Hence.
as we pass by, we can pause for a moment
and see the workmen uncover wall paint
Ing which has not seen the light for 2, 900
years or whereabouts and appears to have
cropped up for our especial benefit or we
may be fortunate enough to see bronze

patina, or coloring which IL has derived
from ages of burial In volcanic matter.

of temples and houses which, after having
been disused for centuries and perhaps
originally despoiled of their treasures, have
gradually been filed up and contain but
little to reward our pains, whereas at
Pompeii we have town covered up as in
a moment when in the full swing Of its
life and labor. We find an oven, and on
opening it, it Is full of loaves of bread. We

eggs which were to form part of his en-
trees, and the fruit which he had intend

may come upon his silver plate, his gold
jewelry, his musical instruments, arranged
in readiness for the tibicines who were
to play them and were always present at
any dinner party of Importance. or, II he
were a man OF war, we shall find his
weapons, and In any case we are nearly
sure to find such imperishable articles as
his scales and weights, his cutlery, his din
ner service, his glass and the innumerable
other objects of daily use, which, even if
he found the site of his house and ransaok-
ed 1t, were not worth any ones while to
carry way. These things were worth moth
ing then; they are rare treasures now.
But who could look SO far forward?-E.

Songs of Birds.

John Burroughs writes of the "Songs OF
American Birds in the March Century.
Mr.. Burroughs says have never yet seen
a Gagged bird that wanted-at least not
on account of Its song-nor wild flower
that desired to transfer to my garden. A
Gagged skylark will sing its song sitting on
a bit of turf In the bottom of the cage, but
you want to stop your ears, IL Is so harsh
and sibilant and penetrating. But up
there against the morning sky and above
the wide expanse of fields what delight we
have in It'll It is not the concord OF sweet
sounds; IL is the soaring spirit of gladness
and ecstasy raining down upon us from
"heaven's gate" Then, to tho time and

stion or hear the bird through the vista OF

GERMANY AND RUSSIA.
The Practice of Settling Their Differences
Mt the Expense of Neighbors.


Mt the Expense of Neighbors.
In the days of their youthful friendship
the present German emperor said to the
Austrian crown prince, II mean to follow
the programme of Frederick the Great.
To which the i'll fated Archduke Rudolf
resignedly replied, THAT programme i'm
plies the destruction of Austria" That
programme is being followed steadfastly,
and the destruction of Austria seems to be
her only manifest destiny. And since on
its debris, as well as those of Turkey,
which must needs crumble at the same
time, only some kind of mixed state or
confederacy can arise, of which Hungary
most likely would assume the hegemony,
German policy aims at securing both pre-
dominant influence at Pesth and the con-
troll of the military forces of the sultan.
This control is now complete and I'M
shakable and the disposal of some BOO, 900
Turkish troops, led by German officers,
may decide the fortunes of a European
war.
With the two moribund empires practi-
cally subservient to her policy, with their
presumptive heir eager to profit by that
policy, Germany will have little difficulty
In striking an advantageous bargain with
Russia. 1t is not with Russia that Ger
many will ever quarrel. These two have
had long practice In settling their diff
ferences at the expense of neighbors, and

sparrows and BICYCLES.

A curious thing about the English SPAR
row has often been noticed by wheelmen.
When the cyclists first took to the streets u
few years ago, the birds used to hop up In
the air and skip away before the wheel
was within 10 feet of them. The rapidity
of the motion seemed to startle them out
of their wits. But new, even with the in
creased speed of pneumatic tires and high
gears, the birds show little or no fear of
the wheels, waiting till the last moment
before flying. The wheel is often less than
two feet from them before they take to
flight. One sparroX over on Clinton street,

WHERE MEN ARE CARELESS.
Should Provide For the Future Of Those
Dependent Upon Them.

Dependent Upon Them.
Edward w. Box writes upon "When
Men Are Thoughtless" in Ladies' Home
Journal directing attention TO "the sim
gular fact that the American man, who Is
the best and most thoughtful husband in
the world, should yet be peculiarly
thoughtless as to the future of his wife or
children in the event of his DEATH"
Mr.. Box forcibly contends that the hus-
band should have his affairs In such con-
dition that in the event of death coming
to him his wife and children, or those de-
pendent upon him, would not suffer. In
this connection he says: 81 firmly believe
that it Is the duty of every man to be in
sured With insurance policies TO be had
at such low rates as Is at present the case,
there Is scarcely man who cannot afford
some sort of policy, no matter how small
the amount 1t may call for. What seems
to the man himself In good health as
small amount for an insurance policy
often turns out to be modest fortune to
the woman or children who survive him.
I wish sometimes that the taking out OF
an insurance policy on the part of the hus-
band for an amount according to his
means might be made an obligatory part
of every marriage ceremony.
81 know whereof l speak when 1 say
that there are hundreds of women in the
homes or this land who are daily CARRYING
with them the fear that their husbands or
fathers are neglecting or forgetting to
make suitable provision for them as wild
ows or orphans. They shrink from speak
ing to the men of their homes about the
matter. No man can afford to neglect a
simple duty which may mean all the diff
ference between happiness and misery to
his family. Suitable provision for them he
cannot allow himself to put off, for sure
