ing Of the base of the celebrated eques.
trian statue Of the Roman emperor
Damitian, which is of the greatest in
terest in determining the topography
OF the forum during the first century
OF the empire. The base stands 3 feet
below the present level Of the forum.
1t is 40 feet long and 90 feet wide and
over 10 feet high. On the top are
three blocks Of stone, showing where
the feet of the horse stood. The
fourth block is lacking, indicating that
the right fore foot of the horse was
raised. The distance between the
blocks is SO great that it is calculated
that the statue was six times life size

the following extract from the" Chris.

1T is sn event OF greater signif-

schools where 10000 men, from IL to
60 years of age and four-fft of
whom are day workers will be given
instruction by 300 men as teachers
in rs different subjects.
1T is almost safe TO say that moth

Patience at Home.

Nowhere is patience so essential as
with children, little and big, and very
often it is the elder ones who require the
most. Their faults have to be corrected
and they are so perverse and so careless,
and so provoking, that if the mother has
not perfect control over her own temper,
and patience has not perfected its work
in her soul, she must be of all women the
most miserable.
Absolute power is always liable to
abuse, and while the children are young
it is vested in the parents. 1t is too ter
ribly easy for the strong to triumph ovel
the weak, but the tenderness of love will
enable fathers and mothers to restrain
their Impotence.
Let a child who has been naughty aud
boisterous have time to consider before
any punishment is given, and he will
often say he is sorry, and will under,
stand that even if he has not done much
harm, he has given pam and trouble to
the kind parent who is the center of his
solar system. But if a slap or shake
Immediately follows the naughtiness, ii
only excites sort of blind anger.
If grown-up people would only cast
their minds back to their own childhood,
and treat their own children as they re-
member they thought they ought to
have been treated themselves, there
would be less sorrow and grief in many
families when the boys and girls grow
up.
II sudden and relatively severe punish,
ment is given for slight faults, or even a
great scolding and fuss made, children
are apt to become deceitful. Many chill,

they were not afraid.-McCalfs Maya

She Wasn't Allowed In.

A young married woman from the
south who was visiting New York few
days ago with her husband, left him in
their hotel room one morning while she
went on an errand. She was not &C
customed to big hotels or to big New
York, but she got back without mishap
in half an hour and knocked at the door.
There was no response.
"Let me in, honey" said the young
woman knocking more vigorously.
Still no response.
"Honey, let me in," called the young
woman, redoubling her exertions.
"Honey, honey, let me in"'
She ratified the knob and shook the
door and pounded with both fists, but
there was the silence of the grave on the
other side. The young woman's voice
rose to half cry.
"Honey, aren't you there? I want to
get in. Honey, open the door"
Then arose from the other side of the
door deep bass voice with a resentful
note in it.
Madam" it said, "this is not bee
hive. This is a bathroom"

How to Make a Happy Home.

Learn to govern yourself, and to be
gentle and patient.
Guard your tempers, especially in sea-
sons of ill-health, irritation, and trouble,
and soften them by prayer and sense OF
your own shortcomings and errors.
Remember that, valuable as is the gift
of speech, silence is often more valuable.
Do not expect too much from Others,
but remember that we should forbear
and forgive as we often desire forbear-
ance and forgiveness ourselves.
Never retort sharp or angry word.
| 1t is the second word that makes the
quarrel.
Beware of the first disagreement.
Learn to speak in a gentle tone OF
voice.
Learn to say kind and pleasant things
whenever opportunity offers.
Study the characters of each, and sym
pathize with all in their troubles, how
ever small.
Avoid moods and pets and fits of sulki
ness.
Learn to deny yourself and prefer
others.
Beware of meddlers and tale-bearers.
Never conceive bad motive if good
one is conceivable.
Be gentle and firm with children.
Do not allow your children to be away
from home at night without knowing
where they are.
Do not say anything in their hearing
which you do not wish them to repeat.
Beware of correcting them in petu'
liant or angry manner.-McCall's Maya,
zine.

Ten Smoking.

1t has been recorded on good author
ity that one of the early uses made o,
dried tea leaves was to smoke then
after the manner Of tobacco.
On the first introduction of tea into
Europe, in the seventeenth century
pipes, especially in France, were fire
quently filled with tea, at least among
the Weather classes of society. Il
whom on account Of its high price i
was alone accessible, and the fumes OF
the leaf were thus enjoyed, like tobac
co, without prejudice to the use ordt
narily made Of it as beverage.
Blegny. French physician of thu
time, in work published in 1857 ant
quoted in lie Grand d'Aussy's His
toire de la Vie Privee DIES Francois,
has reference to this practice OF
smoking tea. which was then, as he

Why the stomach Lasts.

An old question which has long puz
zled Psychologists is, Why does not the
stomach digest itself? The walls of the
stomach are in substance not unlike
the food which they contain and which
is digested by the peptic fluid. The
stomach is able to digest proteid food
when introduced into it, yet it does not
digest itself.
The reason for this has been shown
by Weinland. Weinland found that
substance can be extracted from the
cells of the stomach which, when add
ed to proteid material. will not allow
It to be acted upon by the pepsin OF the
stomach. This substance belongs tt
the class of so called antiferments-
that is, group Of bodies which by
their presence inhibit Preventative &C
tons. The presence of this antifer
ment in the cells of the stomach pre-
vents them from digesting themselves.
After death. when this substance de
composes, the stomach will digest it
self.
