Fellows noted this trait and once
when dining with Mr.. Tilden saw that.
as usual, the Sage Of Greystone had
ordered a small bottle of an ordinary
brand for his plate and very choice
vintage for himself. Mr.. Tilden was
called away from the table for mo-
naent. and the colonel deftly shifted
the bottles. When Tildea lifted his
pint to pour out the wine. his eye
quickly noted the difference. but he

EIac:: Mirrors.


Crystal gazing is still popular, but
the very latest thing in use is q black
mirror. in which the siDyls say they
can see many things. These little
black mirrors come from India. where
a spot of inl. has always been favor
ite vehicle for diyination. The native
boy who hes the second sight is told
to look fixedly at a spot OF ink. which
is poured into his hand. The black

Pathetic 9Eer,orsaIs OF the III Fatea
City OF Pomneii

S1tS OI GOMUCl4.
In the museum at Pompeii are pre-
served the most horrid and pathetic
relics Of the last days Of the i'll fated
city. Early in 1868 the workmen who
were helping to unearth an immense
palace struck into cavity in the lava.
the nature Of which, Of course, was a
mystery. Without breaking further
into it they poured plaster Of paris
down the crevices that were already
opened, and IS soon as the plaster had
hardened the crust Of lava was care
fully removed, and, 10, the form OF a
human being IN his last struggles was
revealed, The outlines and form ef
the person were perfectly preserved,
showing plainly that he had been bur
led in boiling; lava, which had hard
ened about him. The intervening 1,S00
years and the heat Of the lava besides
had reduced the body to handful Of
dust, but the lava had left a cast nat
ural as life.
Since that time several bodies have
been reproduced, one Of them with the
features so perfectly preserved as to
show the expression Of the face. In
some Of the plaster casts parts Of the
skeleton are imbedded. Two female
casts which are clasped in each others
arms have been called "The Mother
and Daughter." Persons who have
seen this group say that there is moth
ing in all Pompeii more touching thap

face Of the mother

Guerrilla Wacfare.

The word guerrilla is Spanish and
first came into common use in this
country during the time cS the PENN
su!ar war: bat Spain throughout her
long history has always been recogniz-
ed rs the country most ideally suited
for guerrilla tactics. There is no re-
gion in Europe in which it is more diff
cult to wage successful war. ''If the
array of invasion is small, it is defeat
ed: if it is large, it starves.''
