ADMIRABLE GIRLS.
There Are Three Typesi Pretty. styiish
and Pleturesque.

There Are Three Types; Pretty. stylish
and Pleturesous.
The three types OF girs who are most
admired In these days are the girl who
is pretty. the girl who is stylish. and
the girl who is picturesque. studious
and intellectual girls are classed with
the women. The pretty girl seems to
have an invinciblc weapon in her
hands. She is taught from her in
fancy that she is favored above other
girls. and. alas, by the law of ma
lures compensation. she generally
grows up without an idea In her fufy
pate beyond the best pose for that
same pate and the best piece OF mil
linery with which to adorn 1t. Tho
stylish girl is the one whose clothes
seem made for her and her alone. She
will take the commonplace hat of her
pretty sister and. placing 4, on her
modish head. give 1t pat or two
which will transform II until her
neighbors swear 1t is imported
Everything belonging to her par
takes OF her individuality. until even
the everyday sailor or rough straw is
distinguished as II hangs on the hall
rack. and the fuzzy brown cape which
she dons In wet weather looks more
perky and self-satished than her neigh
boris sealskin, which does not belong
to the stylish girl. 1t Is some power
within her which enables her to select
out OF the thousand and one hats at
the millinery opening. the very bit OF
headgear which will make her the
cynosurc OF all eyes. says the Philadel-
phia Inquirer. Now. the picturesque
girl does not strike one at first sight
30 frequently. but she is the one who
grows on one until she seems the
incest thing in the room, and the best
bit OF beauty in sight. Her gowns nj
ways have dreamy fall to them, as
IL some OF her soft, poetical nature
had animated their folds. She is al
ways delightful, for she is continually
contrast to the women about her.
because there Is generally one OF her
in community. or course. she has
imitators, but they are always recog-
nizeG as such. for their graceful fall
ing draperies are always untidy: but

esque girl is thing Of beauty and n
Joy forever, and her path is genarally
one OF roses and sunshine all her life
through.

One OF the most peculiar accidents on
record occurred to Mr.. Alexander
Ketcham of Chesterville. few miles
west OF Aurora, Ind. Mr. Ketcham
has been raising Belgian hares. and
has been keeping them on the second
floor OF an old vacant house. He has
hut one arm, the right one having been
loet in railroad accident some years
ago. In his left arm Ketcham was car
rying a bundle OF feed stun for his
pets. Ketcham climbed the rickety
staircase laboriously, and as he got to
the top started to pull open the door.
Just as he did that one OF his rab-
bits. a big fellow. Weighing in the
nejghborhood OF 16 pounds. jumped
against the door. The force OF the con-
tact sent Ketcham, whose footing was
none too sure. backward down the
staircase. His fall was only about 10
feet, and luckily no bones were broken.
He is now telling wild tales, however.
to all the credulous Of how he was
knocked down a flight Of steps by the
left hind leg of Belgian hare.

DR.. George Fl. Hepworth. speaking of
the great struggle between good and
evil in our hearts, says there is class
of emotions which man should well
come as he does his tried and trusted
friends-love, charity. kindliness. I'm
der their influence his soul becomes
symmetrical and beautiful. as when
sculptor chips away the marble that
ID useless and brings to light the statue
that was hidden within. And there Ia
another class Of emotions which liter
ally poison the blood and open the
door wide for every possible ailment.
They are the worst enemies Of that
poise and serenity which mark an Ideal
manhood--resentmen revenge. Ill
temper and iil-wili-and to cherish
them is fatal to happiness. They are
instruments in the orchestra which arc
out of tune. They are the hairs in
the watch. storm clouds in the sky
the miasm Of the dank and dreary
swamp.-Selected.

down below the Forum of Imperial
Rome, and are Investigating the re-
gathering place of the people in the
days when Rome was a republic-and
even before that, when 1t was king
dom.
Up to a recent date the Rostra
which many years ago were discovered
near the Arch of Septimus Severus
were believed to be the sole monument
of the sort existing in the Forum. 1t
was from them that the orators ad-
dressed the people assembled in the
Comitium; they were ornamented with
the bronze prows (rostra) of the ships
captured from the enemies of Rome
Upon them were statues of the Roman
ambassadors who had been slain by
the Fidenati. the equestrian statue of
Sylla. a statue of Pompey. and two
statues of Caesar. Caesar had these
occupy. They consisted of a rectangu-
lar platform. which was elevated to a
height of nearly ten feet above the
level OF the Forum. and they had a
front OF about eighty feet. Along the
front were the bronze ship-beaks from
which the platform derived its name.
Recently the director of the excava-

last days of the republic. They con-

oddities-and falls to telling stories OF

a hereditary trait. for the little lean

many quaint tales by way OF legacy.
| One Of these concerns an old custom

needed money was free to come and
help himself from the stock. No one
asked whether he was worthy or what
he intended to do with 1t. He came up
to the gate, lifted off coin and went
his way And within the memories OF
all the little lean Jap's many grand
fathers no one was ever known to
abuse the bounty by taking more than
a single coin. One was enough for

Of the Imperial Palace, and especially
a great stairway. as mentioned by John
in the epitaph on his tomb In the
Church of st. Anastasia.
The Pontifical court lived in this
part Of the Palatine, overlooking the
Forum, until the tenth century. and
this explains the beauty and the size
Of the church recently discovered. In
II is to be recognized the Pontifical
chapel dedicated to the Virgin. On
the wall at the end is represented
Christ surrounded by halo of cheru-
BIN and angels in attitudes of adora-
ton. and in the apse is the figure OF
the Savior, the symbols of the Evan
gelists. and scenes from the life OF
Joseph in Egypt. These paintings OF
the early ages of Christianity are of
extraordinary interest, and are a no.
table addition to the astonishing series
of historical antiquities by which the
history of Rome can be traced from
the earliest period down to modern
times.
