The young man seemed to be Of
particularly mild disposition and the
straw hat he wore was not out OF the
ordinary, but the combination was the
cause Of a series Of mishaps on a Sew
enth avenue car the other day. And
it was a closed car at that The young
man and the hat took a seat we'll for
ward and were soon in deep thought
at least the young man was. The
hat was evidently cooking up mis-
chief.
The chance came at last. It was
blowing a gale in the street and hats
were flying in all directions. The sight
probably fired the ambition of the hat
on the young mans head.
At TweEty-third street the car
stopped. A stout woman climbed on
the front platform and the motorman
Obligingly opened the door for her.
With the woman came the tail end of
a particularly fierce gust of wind
which hit the car plumb center. The
hat arose from the young mans head,
seemed to pause for a moment in
mid-air as though selecting a victim,
and then started on its aerial flight
1t nipped on the eyeglasses of a
'choleric looking old man, carOmed
across the car and smacked a German
woman in the face Then. gathering
fresh impetus from an open window,
it sailed up to the roof of the car,
tried to ring up a couple Of fares on
the register, and fell into the lap of

Digging in Ancient Ruins

Interesting and valuable archaeOlOg-
icaI discoveries have been made on
the site Of the ancient Greek city
OIbia. The site is situated on the
southern bank Of the Bong. about mid
way between OtchakOff and NicOlaieff,
end not far distant from the estuary
OF the Dneiper. This ancient city was
a great center for Greek trade with
the interior. II is generally main
tanned among archaeological author
tiles that a trade route extended from
CIbia across country to the northern
sea. and when a find Of ancient Greek
coins was made it was cOntended to
be substantial proof Of the fact. Re
Gently, however, IL was proved that
these coins were spurious
OIbia was destroyed by the GeJOa
about 20 to so B. c. but It revived
and when it was visited by Dion
Chrysostum about 100 A. D. it was
again a fiOurishing city. The excava-
lions that are now in progress upon
the site Of this city are being carried
out by II. FOrmakOvski under the aus
pices Of the Russian Archaeological so
ciety. NJ FOrmakOvski has succeed
I'd in unearthing extensive portions of
the walls and foundations Of the orig

seventh century, B. c. The masonry
is identical with that of the ruins O.
ancient cities excavated in various
parts Of Greece. Before this depth
was reached two different strata Of
walls and easements bearing descrip-
tiCns of the fourth and first centuries
B. c. were encountered
The stone blocks composing the
ruins Of houses, temples, etc, in these
upper strata are Of remarkably exact
area, square proportions and excel
lently dressed. The more solid con-
structiye work is, however, found in
the remains Of the original city. At
this depth there was unearthed a per
fectly preserved wine cellar. Some
fifty huge jars or vases had evidently
contained red wine, now turned to a
light pOwdery substance. A large col
lection of valuable antiques in gold,
marble and ancient pottery has also
been found in these newly uncovered
ruins. These have been dispatched TO
the Hermitage at St. Petersburg. N.
MOrmakOvski, however, is carefully
examining every antique unearthed, to
establish its genuine character, as It
was on this site that the spurious tiara
Of SaitaphaTnes, now in the Louvre,
was alleged to have been discovered.

Hat on a FrOlic

a woman carrying a baby. From
thence 1t dropped lightly to the floor,
evidently satisfied with its work.
The owner Of the hat jumped after
it at the first stage Of the desertiOn,
but was obliged to tack about the
stout woman whose entrance to the
car had caused the trouble. When he
got by he failed to see the choleric
old man, who was blindly cropping for
his glasses on the floor of the car
and saying harsh things soto vOce.
Therefore. the young man was hardly
to blame when his knee came into
violent contact with the chOleric par
tvs ear, knocking OF his hat. The
young man, who was crimson with
embarrassment, turned to apologize,
and. plunging forward in his cOnfu-
sion, stepped squarely upon the crown
of his mischievOus hat. which was re-
posing at the feet of the woman with
the baby.
The young man was still several
blocks from his destination, and the
rain had begun to fall; but somehow
he felt that his presence in the car
was rather embarrassing to the other
passengers, so he got on. The chOle-
ric man found his hat and glasses,
but not his temper. The German wO-
nan quoted Wagneriau selections
while she prOspected about her face
for possible scratches, and the wO-
man with the baby said something
that sounded like "chump. New

LEARNING THINGS

We Are All in the Apprentice Class,
When a simple change Of diet
brings back health and happiness the
story is briefly told. A lady OF
Springfield, III, says: After being
afflicted for years with nervousness
and heart trouble, I received a shock
four years ago that left me in such
a condition that my life was despaired
Of. I could get no relief from doctors
nor from the numberless heart and
nerve medicines tried because I
didn't know that the coffee was daily

Finally at the request OF a friend
left on coffee and began the use OF
Postum and against my convictions I
gradually improved in health until Tor
the past 6 or s months 1 have been
entirely free from nervousness and

I saw the young bride, in her beauty
and pride,
Bedecked in her snOSy array
And the bright flush OF JOY mantled high
on her cheek
And the future looked blooming and
gay
And with vvoman's devotion she laid her
fond heart
At the shrine OF idOlatrous love.
And she anchored her hopes to this per
ishing earth
But saw when those heart-strings were
bleeding and torn.
And the chain had been severed in
two.
She had changed her white robes for the
Sables Of grief.
And her bloom for the Paleness OF woe!
But the Healer was there. pouring balm
on her heart
And wiping the tears from her eyes:
He strengthened the chain he had broken
And fastened it firm to the skies.
There had whispered a vOice-'twas the
voice OF her Cod
7 love thee, love thee-pass under the

And she kissed the soft lips. as they

And the fast-cOn1Ing evening OF life

And its pathway grew smooth to their
