BOOKS NARROW ESCAPES.

virgiI's "Eneid," Works of Aristotle
and Talmud Saved by Good Luck.
Three Of the greatest books In the
world have narrowly escaped destruc-
ton, the "Eneid" of Virgil, the works
of Aristotle and the great body of Jew
ish tradition represented by the Tai
mud.
1t is recorded that Virgil on his
deathbed sought to burn the only copy
of the "H1neid," as he had not revised
1t, and when he was foiled in this be
ordered his executors, Varro and Tue
ca, not to give it to the world, direc-
ton which was disregarded by order
of the Emperor Augustus.
The works of Aristotle suffered from
neglect They lay many years buried
In a cellar, and when. by mere acct
dent. they were at last unearthed, they
were so damaged by damp and dirt
that In many passages they are hope
lessly corrupt. How great would have
been the loss of this work to the hui
man race may be judged from the fact
that everything that was known in the
middle ages of the arts and sciences
was derived directly from these writ
lngs.
The Talmud nearly became extinct
through persecution. The posses
sion of the Talmud, by a long series
of edicts extending over many cen
turtles, was made penal. and the book
itself was burned. No fewer than "a
wagon loads of Talmud manuscript
were burned in France in 1244.-Stray

Tho N1ode1,s Hard Trial.

Miss Siddal had trying experience
In order that the artist might get the
proper set of the garments in water
and the right atmosphere and aqueous
effects. she had to lie in large bath
filled with water, which was kept at
an even temperature by lamps placed
beneath. One day, just as the picture
was nearly finished. the lamps went
out unnoticed by the artist, who was
so intensely absorbed In his work that
he thought Of nothing else, and the
poor lady was kept floating in the cold
water till she was nearly benumbed.
She herself never complained of this,
but the result was that she contracted
a severe cold, and her father, an auc-
tioneer at Oxford, wrote to Millais,
threatening him with an action of ESQ
damages for his carelessness. Millais
paid the doctors bill, and Miss Sid
dial, quickly recovering, was none the
worse for her cold bath.-Life of Sir
John Millais.

Each Has the Power of Life OF Death

The social system among the Moros

sides these he may command all the
men of his own district in time of war
He also has the right of life and death
over his subjects. For instance, few
weeks before we arrived in Jolo, Data
Jokanine had occasion to execute one
Of his followers. The man had been
intrusted with money belonging to the

Once more the retainer came, saying:
"Oh, great and benevolent dato. again

"This is the second time have for
given thee" said Jokanine, "but the
third time, warn thee, thou shalt die. -
Yet again the unfortunate man re-
turned without the money he had col
lected for the dato.

Literary.

Eight thousand manuscripts were re-
ceived by The Ladies' Home Journal dur.
ing the year just closed. Each was given
careful reading, but out of the entire
number only eighty were found worthy Of
publication. The Manuscript Bureau Of
The Ladies' Home Journal is operated at a
large expense, but the hope of discovering
new writers or some aspirants with unde-
veloped talent warrants the outlay. II
can be seen that the articles secured by
such a careful winnowing process brings
the cost of each up to and above the re-
Enumeration paid our best writers.
These facts bring refutation to the oft
repeated but none the less erroneous asser-
ton that only well-known writers of es-
tablished literary reputation are able to
find place for their work in the maya
zines. Exactly the contrary is true. The
Ladies' Home Journal, through the man
uscripts considered, has discovered three
or four new writers of excellent merit and
great promise, and this find" its editor
regards as fully warranting the large out
lay of maintaining an expensive bureau
for reading all the manuscripts submitted.

ElMI1S OF SEED VITALITY.
No Truth In Stories of termination
After Thousands of Years.

No Truth In Stories of termination
After Thousands of Years.
ssThe statement is frequently made
in the popular press" said Professor
L. 81. Pammel, government botanist,
'sthat seeds have retained their vitality
for long time. Thus it is stated that
wheat under some conditions has pre-
served its vitality for 30 or 100 years.
1t has frequently been stated that
wheat taken from Egyptian monu-
ments terminated, but in not single
case is this termination authenticated.
Not a single grain taken from an an
Gent Egyptian sarcophagus and sown
by various persons has ever been
known to terminate, and the condi-
tons for preserving the seed In these
Egyptian monuments are better than
in the soil. They are protected from the
air and variations of temperature. The
experiment which has been most talk
ed Of Is that of the Count Of Sternberg
at Prague He had received the grains
from a trustworthy traveller. who told
him that they were taken from a
these seeds terminated, but it is well
known fact that impostures are per-
petrated by the people who dispose of
these seeds. In some cases they have
even stripped corn or maize into these
sarcophagi.
MANY experiments have been made,
not only in this country, but in Europe,
to determine the vitality Of various
grain seeds. Thus. barley retains its
vitality better than any other cereal,
and this Is said to retain it's vitality
from eight to ten years. In the case
of wheat 80 to 100 per cent terminates
in from one to four years; in five to
seven years, IS to 81 per cent. In the
case of rye the percentage of germina-
ton In FIVE years dropped to DO per
cent; in seven years, SO per cent; nine
years, 13 per cent. In the case of corn,
l made some experiments few years
ago to determine the vitality and found
that corn which was kept In tightly
closed vessels at the age of 20 years
had lost all its power of termination.
Experiments also indicate that corn
kept even a few years became largely
deteriorated and lost much OF It's pow
er of termination. Even grass seeds
which have been buried at some depth
In the soil and in vessels tightly sealed
