The Russian New Year.

The patriotic Russ, who believes IN
the civilization that has its cradle in
the Ural and Irish, is constrained to
admit that in one respect he is behind
the rest of the world He is twelve
days back In the matter of his calen-
dar. The Muscovites keep to the Jul
ian reckoning. having never agreed to
be robbed Of the twelve days to which
the rest OF Europe submitted. not with
out a little rioting, 1t will be remem-
bered even in this country. So that
the Russ Is still lighting his Christmas
candle when the rest of the civilized
old and new world Is at Twelfth Night.
The reform OF the calendar has several
times been proposed In Russia, but the
matter has. on each occasion been re-
erred to an imperial commission, q
euphemism for getting rid of It. An
other attempt is, however, now to be
made to adopt the Gregorian computa-
ton, and this time the subject Is to be
deliberated upon by the Imperial
Academy Of Sciences, under the presi-
dency of the Grand Duke of Constan-
tin. assisted by the ministers of state.
What difficulties there may be In
bringing about the change is not very
evident to non-Russians. II the gov
eminent desired to make the altera-
ton, a ukase Of the Tsar would serve
the purpose.

DESTRUCTION OF ATLANTIS.
Described by an .,Eye-witnoss-A An
Awful Sight

Described by an ,Eye-witnOss-A An
Awful Sight
The description of an eyewitness
standing on the summit Of the Sacred
mountain, says Parsons Magazine:
Our Lord the sun burned high over
head In the sky Of cloIdless blue and
day shimmered in his heat. All be-
low seemed from that distance peace
full and warm and still, save only that
the mountains smoked more than Or
binary and some sprouted fires and
that the sea boiled with some strange
disorder. But it was the significance
OF the sea that troubled most. Far
out on the distant coast 1t surged
against the rocks in enormous rolls Of
surf; and up az the great estuary, at
the head of which the city OF Atlantis
stands. 1t gushed into successive waves
OF enormous height which never re-
turned. Already the lower lands on
either side were blotted out beneath
tumultuous waters, the harbor walls
were drowned out Of sight and the
food was creeping up into the lower
wards of the great city itself. The
ocean rolled in upon the land in an
ever-increasing food, and the noun
tains smoked and belched forth more
volleys of rock as the weight increased
on their lower parts. A burning
mountain burst with a believing roar
as the incoming waters met its fires.
The fires, too, which ringed in half
the mountain, spurted up to double
their height and burned with an I'M
ceasing roar. On the mountain top
men still ran about distracted. but
gradually they were coming to where
the ark rested on the highest point.
The drowning of the great continent
that had been spread out below filled
the eye. Ocean roared in upon 1t with
still more furious waves. The plains
and the level lands were foaming
lakes. At last the great city of At
lantis had vanished eternall.'. The
mountains alone kept their heads
above the food and spewed out rocks
and steam and boiling stone, or burst
WHICH luo
created great whirlpools OF surging
sea and twisted trees and bubbling
mud. In the space Of few breaths
every living creature that dwelt In the
lower grounds had been smothered by
the waters save for a few who hud-
died In a pair of galleys that were
driven oarless inland over what had
been once black forest, and hunting
land for the beasts. Even these, also.
were swallowed up by the horrid tur-
moil of sea, and nothing but the sea
beasts and those of the greater lizards
which can live in such outrageous wa
tiers could have survived even that
stage OF the destruction. Indeed, none
but those men who had found stand
ing ground on the upper slopes Of the
sacred mountain survived, and 1t was
plain that their span was short, for
the great mass of the continent sank
bodily deeper and more deep every
minute before our aching eyes, be-
meath the boiling inrushes of the
ocean. When Atlantis sank to form
new ocean bed, she left great whirl-
pools and spoutings from her drowned
fires as a fieeting legacy to the gods
of the sea.

what Shall We En-, to He Saved,

Writers on health and the complex
ion" are sounding the bugle note of
alarm by declaring We must not eat
OF certain things. Fish must not be
eaten because 1t Is rarely fresh. To
matoes are condemned because they
cause cancer. Cabbage is vile because
1t partakes Of the fertilizing used in
growing 1t. Pork is dangerous. Beef,
mutton and veal are full OF bacteria.
Champagnes and wines are not clean.
And white bread and potatoes 1t is as
serted, will cause leprosy. With such
a formidable list, and one that in
creases every day, the question natur-
ally arises: What shall we eat? White
bread has been part of the steady diet
OF Americans for generations. and the
Irish would never live without pota-
toes. Yet both are a healthy, good
rocking lot. II seems possible, too,
that II 1t is unwise to eat without dis
elimination. 1t is equally unwise to be
too discriminating. The dyspeptic Is
often the man who chooses his food
too carefully.

ROBIN LORE.

Every race Of mankind from the days
OF mythology have regarded birds as
the interpreters of the will Of heaven
or Of the gods. The robin especially is
protected from slaughter, perhaps be-
cause OF its pretty, confident ways and
bright eyes, maybe because Of the leg
end OF the Babes in the Woods" In
the sixteenth century there were we'll
authenticated instances of robins COW
ering the bodies Of the dead with mos.
Another pretty myth is that the
color of the robins breast is intimate
ly connected with the crown OF thorns
worn by the Savior, while still an
other story associated with the bird is
that 1t scorched its breast bringing
down fire from heaven to rekindle the
cold hearths of mankind.
Whittier has embodied a legend In
his verses. He tells that the robin
burned It's breast carrying drops OF wa
ter In its beak to relieve the anguish
of poor lost souls. Shakespeare, in
"Cymbeline," refers to the robins
habit Of covering dead men, and many
other kindred references might be
given.
