Several times during 1902 a rumor
spread that the Pope's health was
failing. but those who are most com
petent to speak with authority on the
subject say that he seems to be quite
as vigorous now as at any time dur
ing the last five or six years. The
Pope himself is very optimistic on
this point. He has been quoted more
than once Of late as saying that he
confidently expects to become a cen
tenarian, and while he may not have
been speaking seriously, for he loves
at times to unbend and indulge in
mild pleasantly the wonderful vigor
displayed by him during the many
onerous services and ceremonies in
which he was the leading figure in
1902 seem to indicate that he may at
tain his desire.
If he does Rome viii then witness
an unparalleled sight. for it is rumored
that the Pope intends to celebrate the
occasion by jubilee which will tran
scend In pomp and magnifcence all
previous ceremonies of the kind.

The Only Way to oner Help In Some
Instances ls 70 Buy Pie.
"Out West, a few yeas ago, while
journeylng around with a friend Of
mine, l overheard a conversation
which goes TO show that sympathy Is
often misplaced, said the rowing
man, and the moral Is not by any
means 4 bad one. The quick way IN
which the man turned on his friend.
who had offered him an abundance Of
sympathy, so far as sympathy can be
extended by mere words, was very
amusing and showed that the fellow
was quick-witted and unusually bright,
despite the fact that he had fallen
into a rather rough road.
The young man had been out West
for some time. He had gone out there
with the idea that he could win a for
tune, but instead OF finding the way
10 success a smooth one, it was rather
rough and rocky, marred by thorns
to prick the feet, pitfalls and all that
kind OF thing. Put in plain, unpoetie
language he was run down at the heel
and bagging at the knee In order
to make a living he had been forced
TO become a pie merchant on a small
scale He was fl this business when
We found him. and had d small NOV
able stand on the corner Of two
streets in a well known mining town.
Ny friend recognized him at a glance.
and rushed up to greet him. The fel-
low seemed to be just a little embar-
rassed and my friend thought II would
be the proper thing to do to offer
little sympathy
Sorry to sec you situated as you
are, old fellow, and in this business
said my friend feeiingly
D your sympathy. Buy pie
was the quick rejoinder Of the vender.
and in a few moments we had left
him shrieking out his wares to men
who passed that way.
AT least he convinced my friend
that there are moments In a mans
life when the mere sympathy Of the
mouth. no matter how earnest or how
fervent the words. can not meet the
requirements Of the case, and that the
real and only way to offer help in
such instances Is to buy a pie"

The discovery by DR.. Richard Her
2og Of Tubingen. Of the ancient tenn
pie Of Aesculapius, on the island of
Cos, is likely to solve the interestIhg
question whether there were lyii@.ln
and other hospitals before the Chris
tian era. The temple is 1874 yards
wide by 401k yards long, and was
found under a small Byzantine church,
dedicated to the Blessed Virgin OF
Tarsus. The columns Of the temple
were found lying whole or in parts in
place called Condje Baktehessi, or
the garden Of the flower buds. A
Greek inscription was found on ths
entrance hall Of the temple, which
read, when translated: "Sundry eld-
ers from different states have decided
by vote to carry on this holy asylum
Of Aesculapius." A statue Of Hygesa
was found and g portion Of an image
in relief Of a serpent, the symbol OF
the god, besides numerous votive Of

April a Lucky Month
American People Have Seeded Great Problems During
rs Thirty Dsys-lNomentous in the Annals
of Our National History

There was the war Of the rebellion.
which started April 10. 1861. Hostili-
ties actually began when Fort sumD-
ter was fired upon April II, 1861.
"The Ute expedition IN Colorado
began April 3. 1878. 1t is a rather
curious coincidence that the late war
with Spain began April 81, in the
same month and but two days later,
with respect TO the day Of the month,
than the war Of the rebellion, which
began April 18th. The Spanish-Ameri-
can war began April p, 1898, and end
ed April ii, 1899. These are some Of
the more important things which have
taken place in the month Of April
and many Of the events have been Of
deep import from the viewpoint of
Americans. What reason can you
assign for the conspicuous part April
has played in the history OF American
Do men feel more Ike fighting in
April than in the other months Of the
year? Is the spirit of war and reyo-
luton influenced by the rising OF the

be some good reason for the happen

this sort in the month Of April. AT

things are due to haphazard. that they
are mere condolences. April cannot
be explained ont Of its rightful Inherit

Hazel Wand.
Electricity has put the witch.hazel
wand and other methods Of determin-
ing the presence OF water under
ground out OF business. Experts have
patented little electrical device
which tells surely Of the proximity Of
water. When its needle begins to
show vibrations It can be stated posi-
lively there Is watev beneath.
Omclals OF the geological survey
have become so impressed with the
invention that they are giving 1t a
thorough test The new water detee-
tor is something like the seismograph
used for determining earthquake dis
trrbsnces.
BY its vibrations the presence OF
subterranean streams is not only de-
teemlned but the volume and direction
& tae fow are also accurately re-
corded.
This instrument will be Of great
value to the irrigator and farmer. as

where he viii find water. Frequently
immense sums Of money are expended
in drilling aftesian wells. which after
being bored hundreds OF feet arc
found to be dry.
In tests made with the new elec
trical device steel rods are driven o
short distance into the earth and at
taehed to the machine. There is an
attachment something like tac telc
