the Medieval Artists.

Emblems BESTOWED Upon Them by
the MEDIEVAL Artists.
The medieval artists, having no idea
of the personal appearance of the Saw
tours followers, adopted set OF signs,
or emblems, for each, which soon be
came familiar TO all. The emblem of
Peter was either a large key or two
keys crossed, which is readily explain.
ed by referring to the words of Christ
(Matthew xvi, 19), 'tAnd will give I'M
to thee the keys of the kingdom of
heaven The emblem of Paul was a
sword and book-the latter to remind
the beholder that he was teacher of
men, the former to indicate that he was
beheaded with sword. st. Andrew
was usually figured standing by cross
shaped like q letter Y, that being the
form of the cross upon which legend
says he was crucified. The emblem of
st. James the Great was either a sword,
referring to the fact that he was also
beheaded, or pilgrims staff, he being
great traveller.
St Johns emblem was caldron, re
ferring to his experience in the boiling
oil. st. Philips emblem is an enigma.
1t was spear and cross, yet 1t is
known that he was hanged. st. Bar
tholomew, who was ''tiayed alive" is
represented with a knife and his skin
hanging over his arm. Matthew's EN-.
blem is a square, supposed to have
some reference to Christ's calling. st.
Thomas, having been pierced with
dart" is pictured carrying a spear.
The emblem of james the Less was
club, he having been ''beaten to death
with a faggot;" st. Matthias an ax, he
having been beheaded. Simon's en-
blem was saw. The legend says she
was sawn asunder."

as the stag gives up the chase and

again. This is kept up for eight or ten
days, with the result that from worry,
violent exercise and change of diet the
meat of the fawn becomes for time

The Swedes are quiet, taclturn peo-

a platform or a steamboat pier, the

bad breach of good manners. In retir-

Il seems to be the opinion of cOmpe-

GOLD MINING.
The Splendid Opportunities 1t Offers
to Small Investors.


1t is sometimes said. and with ii
show of truth, that there are only two
classes of people who can with propr-
ETY. engage in the mining business
those who have plenty of money and
can afford to lose it. and those who
have nothing to lose. Whatever the
truth in tho statement It viii be found
to apply equally = almost any form Of
financial investment. Given an invest
ment that has no risks. and the re-
trns will be so small that it offers
no indUcement for the small investir
who desiresf from his investment
something more than 3 per cent or {
per cent which he receives from the
savings bank Whether a man should
withdraw his money from the savings
bank or convert his per cent bonds
into cash for the purpose of investing
in something more promising is his
own affair; undoubtedly he takes chan
ces in doing SO. But men and women
are constantly investing their money
in this and that form of enterprise
or speculation, from real estate to lot
terry tickets. and if the truth could
be known it wuld pobably appear that
a large proportion of these invest
ments are made where the risk is
greater and the promise less than il
gold mining. There are two method:
by which the Dossessor of small cap
ital may invest in mining. First b!
the purchase of mining stocks. and
second. by engaging directly in tn
business itself. either alone or Will
trustworthy partners. The first me
thod is largely speculation. If tn
mine is good, if it is wisely handled
and if the business is honestly cor
Quoted. it will pay. Even with a goo
mine it is evident that the chance
are considerable, and the small stocl
holder has little to say in the manage
ment of the business into which h
has put his money. The second me-
Tod is the safest and the most attrat
tive. The field is, Of course. not ope
to men with a few dollars, but on tn
other hand it it is certainly not close
