The average thickness is probably twenty

There are two windows, one in each of
the small sides Of the building The
door Of cedar wood and about six inches
in thickness, is secured by a rough-hewn
beam resting in sockets. The little house
Is divided into equal parts by a brick
wall. The granite floor is worn smooth
by the feet and knees of pious pilgrims
who have wOrshiped here for the last
two or three hundred or perhaps thou
Sand years. The brick wall and cement
ed portions OF the interior walls are black
with age.
"The east room is commonly supposed
to have been Mary's. as 1t contains the
fireplace and remnants Of a small cup
board. The latter have been sent to
Rome for comparison with furniture
known to date from the beginning of the
Christian era. The adjoining chamber Is
two or three feet larger, and on the floor
rests granite Slab some eight inches
in thickness, bearing in the center an an
cient Greek cross fanked by shepherds
staff on each side. This is believed to be
part of ST. Johns altar table. The indi-
cations are that it rested on wooden piles
which, in the course of time wasted
away and broke down. In all probability
the apostle said mass here while his con-
gregation consisted of only few follow
ers. The bell tower strengthens this be-
lief. And in later years, when he had a
cathedral in EpheSuS he doubtless con-
tinued to hold divine services here for
the Virgin, who, when she became old
and feeble, could not longer go to the
city.
'@The prior Of ST. John, when he redis-
covered the. house on July q, 1891, found
nothing but the altar-stone, the remnants
of the cupboard and the fireplace. The
natives told him of records on stone and
burned clay that existed ever so many
years ago. but nothing remains to sub
Stantiate the story save that it was en-
tians who declare that they heard IL
from their fathers and grandfathers, and
that it was a legend current from time
fmmemorial"

tdtneF is supposed to be
considering the advisability OF getting
the seal Of his acceptance upon the
legend.
The final abode Of Mary whittier she is
supposed to have retired son after the
crucifixion, has been disputed. Some of
the early writer's have it that she was
cared for by John, the Beloved OF
Christ, in Jerusalem until she died of
old age. Others, among them Baronias
and Tiemont, are positive that Mary
accompanied the Apostle John to Ephe-
sus. where she lived with him, and that
John was finally buried there by her
side.
According to Eusebius, John lived in
Ephesus for very long time, becoming
bishop of the church there and busily
spreading the gospel. Johns gospels and
his epistleS were indicted at Ephesus
All the fathers of the church agree that
the first seeds of Christianity were sown
at EDhesus. Paul returned there after
each circuit into the surrounding coun-
try, and there he wrote mis- first epistle
to the Corinthians.
On the other hand it is variously re-
ported, though not in the Bible, that
Mary died in Jerusalem and was buried
in the spot where now stands the
Mosque Of the tomb Of David. Still, if
Mary lived longer than fifty years-and
there seems to be good ground for that
belief-she must have gone with her
adopted son to EDhesus.
The house where Mary is supposed to
have died stands at Ayasaluk, on the
ruins of the ancient city Of Ephesus, in
Smyrna. 1t was discovered, or more
properly rediscovered, by the prior Of
the monastery Of st. John, in the capital
of Asiatic Turkey, some eleven years ago.
From time immemorial the native Chris
tians have made annual pilgrimages to
the place, but the fact seemed to have
escaped the friars until attention was
called to it In a manner little short of
miraculous.

OF the practical athletic girl that wouIi
make pugilist look doubtful for a
minute. Beauty baths, vapor baths and
steaming the face, become as nothing to
the girl who irons and the profit she
gains physically by it's exercise. At the
close OF this work good bath, followed
by q stiff rubbing down with a Turkish
towel produces beautiful glow of health
which the faddist Of an athletic girl can
never hope to equal by her exercise.
Does she want some more exercise2 fl.
There is the baking day, and there Is
no more beneficial exercise for the wrists
and the forearms than the kneading Of
bread. While it is baking the mending
can be attended to.
For really fine muscular training and
exercising every portion Of the body
nothing can go ahead of the exercise
produced by scrubbing the kitchen floor.

pearances as old and weather-worn as
any ancient building in Smyrna and Pal
estine. On one side were the ruins of the
great city, one the other an enchanting
outlook upon the blue sea. The house of
Mary remains as she left it to join her
heavenly Son more than eighteen CEN
turtles ago; or rather as John the ApoS-
tie, left it; for the bishop of Ephesus out
lived the Virgin many years, according to
the best authorities.
Unlike the Loretto house, which is sup
posed to be the ancient abode of Mary
and Joseph in Nazareth, where the infant
Jesus was brought up, the dwelling place
where Mary is said to have spent the
last years of her life is still uneffaced by
pious vandals. There is none of that be-
wildering profusion of lamps, candle
sticks, goblets, crowns, crucifiXes. images,
canoes, pearls and gems of all kinds that
distract ones attention Ia the Italian
place of pilgrimage; but instead the mind
is powerfully impressed by the prob
ability, or at least possibility, that the
things one sees may have really be-
longed to the sanity persons to whom
they are ascribed.

Them were burned to death. But the sur

Virgin in her own house. I counted some
fve hundred pilgrims, a vast number in

'"The road up 1.-The mountainside was
