THE PHAl.ANX.
s Formation IN the Military Meth.
0d. OF Ancient Greece.


A phalanX in the military affairs Of
|reece was a square battalion or body
4 soldiers formed in ranks and files
pmpact and deep with their shields
pined and pixies crossing each other so
IS to render it almost impossible to
Freak it. At first the pha!anX consisted
1000 men, but this number was aft
fward doubled by Philip of Macedon,
|nd the double phalanX is hence often
allied the Macedonian phalanX. Poly
lius describes it thus:
1T was square of pikemen, con-
! sting of is in flank and 800 in front,
he soldiers stood SO close together
hat the pixies of the fifth rank extend
Fl three feet beyond the trout. The
est, whose pixies We're not serviceable
wing to their distance from the front,
puched tham upon the shoulders OF
hose who stood before them and, so
Dcking them together in file, pressed
crWard to support ard push on the
primer rank, by which means the as
ault was rendered more violent and
The spears of those be-
llnd also stopped the rissiles of tie
nemy. Each man's pike was twenty
hree feet long. The word phalaux is
lso used for any combination of peo-
ne distinguished for soiiditH ard firm

6,3S4 men.

Thc Catnlentic Trance.

1t cannot be doubted that in numer-
Gus cases of cataleptic trance the ap-
parently lifeless patient has been ac-
quainted with all the arrangements
being made for his intermeAt. Several
instances are recorded in which, al
though the body presented every ap-
pearancc of deatl. the patient was con
scious of everything going on around
him, but absolutely unable to raise a
limb or in any Way communicate with
those near his bed

Assuming Husbands' Names.

The practice Of the wife assuming
the husbands name at marriage, ac-
cording to Dr.. Brewer, originated from
q Roman custom and became the COM
mon custom after the Roman Occupa"
ton. Thus Julia and Octavia, married
to Ponpey and Cicero. were called by
the Romans Julia of Pompey. Octav!a
Of Cicero. and il latter times married
women in most European countries
