Historic confagrasions.

A list of great cities burned would be
n list of nearly oil the great capitals OF
the world. Persepolis, the splendid res
fdence of a long series of rulers whose
tributary provinces extended from the
Indus to the Hellespont, was burned,
with all its palaces and temples; Baby
lon and Carthage were so utterly de-
stroyed that their very location has be-
come a matter Of doubt. Rome was
burned eight times, Jerusalem four
times, and, though they rose from their
ashes,
The second temple Is not like the first
Athens, Syracuse, Bagdad, Aiexan-
DIR and Antioch now exhibit only a
shadow of their former grandeur. The
Phenicians, like the Spartans and AS
syrians, disappeared with the ruin of
their capitals, but the most fateful con-
flagration recorded In the history Of
the world Is perhaps that Of Moscow.
"They talk as if the fate Of Europe
had been decided at Waterloo" says
De Bourienne In his memoirs Of the
first empire. "If Napoleon had beaten
Wellington and Butcher dozen times,
It could not have retrieved the reverses
Of the three preceding years. The truth
is that the French Caesar and his for
tune were ruined by the burning Of
Moscow. That city was the funeral
pile of the great nation"

Why Grns. Grows HOLLOW.

The stems Of grass and oats are usu-
ally hollow, and the knots Of nodes
which occur at intervals and which
have a peculiar degree Of firmness, de-
rived from the interlacing of fibers,
give them & f1rmness and strength
which they would otherwise lack. If
the material Of wheat straw were In n
solid form, 1t would make but a thin
wiry stem, which would snap with
great ease, but in the hollow form,
with the intervening knots, the neces-
sary support is afforded.
