Great Grief ant. Head Shaving.

Among the ancients shaving the head
was q very common node of express
ing great grief or sorrow. Sometimes
it was done by the priest or some other
religious functionary formally cutting
off the hair, sometimes by violently
plucking it out by the roots. In ex-
IRENE cases among men the beard as
we'll as the hair wGs either cut off or
plucked out. The idea seems to have
been that mourners should divest them
selves of that which under ordinary
circumstances was considered most
beautiful, ornamental and becoming.
Lucian-and he is not the only one of
the ancient writer's by any means who
gives points on this queer mourning
custom-says that the Egyptians ex-
pressed their intense sorrow by cutting
off the hair upon the death of their god
Apis and that the Syrians acted in the
same manner at the death of Adonis.
Olympiodorus remarks concerning
Job i, 20, that the ancients, among
whom long hair was regarded as an or
nament, cut it off in times of mourn
ing, but that those who commonly
wore it short suffered it upon such oc-
casOns to grow long

The HfndOO Strong Man.

The Hindoos tell wonderful stories of
the feats of Bhima, who was their
strong man. Among the wonders cred
tied to Bhima are the following: Pur-
sued by tiger, his mother when nurs-
ing Bhima let him drop. The force of
the impact shattered in a thousand
pieces the rock on which he had fallen,
but the boy was none the worse. When
he quarreled with other boys he gath
cred them up, ten or fifteen at a time
and pumped them into the nearest
pond. His cousins hid themselves in
a tall banyan to jeer at him, but he
tore it from the ground without effort
He snapped his bonds like Samson,
and hungry cobra's fangs could not
penetrate his skin. His triumph, how
ever, was the defeat of Bakasura, who
CONSUMED a cart load of food at a
sitting and used palmyra trees for
toothbrushes.'

Living Mumnies.

Living mummies exist in Tibet, near
Gyangtse, at spot the name of which
in English may be rendered as 1.-THE
Cave of Happy Misery There are
about twenty small caves in the solid
rock, each built up in front with stones
and mortar They have padlocked
doors, tiny drains and small holes
just sufficient for man to pass his
hand through. In these cells men are
buried for life with the idea Of thus
attaining merit" Once interned they
are, in extreme cases, never seen again
by mortal eye. Even the hand which
they stretch forth from the small hole
for their daily dole of food is covered
by glove. They speak to no one and
no one speaks to them. Even their
death is only made known when they
fail for several days to stretch out the
hand for food.

Jewish Sabbath and the Romans

jewish sabbath ana the Romans.
The disdain of the Romans for the
Jewish Sabbath because it was not ac-
companied by any tumult or noisy and
joyful demonstrations perpetuated it
self throughout all ages. Rutelius, who
was the project Of Rome under Homo
rum. says in speaking of the Jews:
'.They are very much attached to the
cold Sabbath, but their heart is colder
than their religion. The seventh day
Of every week is consecrated to a
shameful idleness, in memory Of the
rest to which their God. gave himself
up after he was harass-&l by fatigue"
Juvenal does not love the Sabbath,
which, according to him, is also sad
feast, for he relates that the kings of
Palestine celebrate that day bare
footed. J,uvenal meant perhaps to des-
ignate here by fiesta Sabbath the
day of Atonement and the fast of the
ninth of Ab-anniversary Of the de-
struction Of the temple at Jerusalem
During these two days the Jews re-
NAMED in fact barefocted.
Juvenal has no great affection for the
Jews. He has an aversion for those
who observe the Sabbath, that live iso-
lated and who do not mingle with the
Romans. He dislikes them because
they have a peculiar religion and spe-
cial laws, and he reproaches them for
despising the Roman laws.-Menora.

A tooth is a living structure. Inside
of each tooth is cavity filled with
pulp, which gives it life. Nerves and
blood vessels connect this pulp with
the general system and circulation of
the body. The ivory surrounding the
pulp is covered over by a surface Of
enamel. Both ivory and enamel are
harder than any other bones, because
they contain a greater quantity of bone
earth. Enamel on the tops of the teeth
is One-sixteenth of an inch thick. 1t
consists of little six sided prisms
placed side by side and held together
by an exquisitely fine cement. The
pulp of the tooth becomes diseased and
tOothache follows. Tartar is a secre-
ton made by three glands in the
mouth, full of small, living organisms,
which assimilate matter in the saliva
and deposit it on the teeth in the shape
of phosphate of lime.

Irish SurnameS.

There is a magnificent sorority in
the names of observation-disclosures
MacGulshenan. MacOira ghty, O'Doo-
yarma, OHowiey. OQuigley, O'Mul-
clohy and O'Mulmoghery. Many Of
the names are extinct. but large pro-
portion are still in evidence, and, what
is more, in nearly every case the fam

in the same localities formerly inhab-
tied by them-Dohertys in Donegal,
Driscolls in Cork, Macdermotts in Con-

A RIPE OLD AGE.

The following in reference to an old
settler, known TO nearly every resident
of the county, is taken from the Most
nee Times:
Joseph Dessert, president of the
Joseph Dessert Lumber Co., founder
and father of the village of Mosinee
and a prominent figure for nearly
sixty years in the lumber industry of
the Wisconsin river valley and in
Northern Wisconsin's development,
reached the grand old age of eighty
six years last Sunday, January Sth.
For over fifty years Mr.. Dessert was
an honored and respected citizen of
Mosinee, where he held the love and
esteem of both old aud young, from
the little lisping Got to the gray
haired pioneer. Some two years ago
be moved to Milwaukee, making his
home with bis son-in-law and daugh-
ter, Mr.. and Mrs. II. NJ. Thompson,
where he is enjoying the long pleasant
evening of life at peace with God and
man, taking his mirth in the joy of
the earth and his pleasure in making
others happy. For one of his age, he
is quite bale and hearty, enjoying
fairly good health; Father Time
having dealt kindly with him. If
Mr.. Desserts health and strength does
not fail him in the meantime, he will
visit the scenes of his old home some-
time next spring or early summer and
once more listen 70 the music of Little

The boys of the Lincoln have worked
very hard to get the slide in good con-
dition and have succeeded. A good
per cent. of the children of the school
| helped to make it.
The boys shoveled a path and the
children tramped it down so that the
boys could water it. Then came big
snow storm and covered it, so the boys
had to shovel it again. After that was
done Mr.. johnson and the boys watered
it and piled half cord OF wood on the
northwest corner of the school ground
Upon this he puts three rock elm planks
that are joined and pieces put on the
side so that the sleds will not run off
Last week the slide was not so good,
but the boys watered it again.
The children enjoy the slide very
much, for one day there were SO sleds
on the grounds. The slide reminds us
of the busy streets in New York and
Chicago. Last Saturday night several
of the teachers from the east side came
over and enjoyed themselves coasting
on it, Monday when the children came
to school the slide was all ready for them
to slide down. We can slide here with

A HOAX.

1t was currently reported on the
streets yesterday afternoon that the
body of a new born babe had been found
Sunday in the back yard of resident liv.
ing behind the creek" Last evening
officers investigated the matter and
found the story to be canard. While
investigating they heard two stories.
One was that the body of child had
been found in the yard of John Fried
rich, 500 Union Ave, also that child
had been found in the coal and wood
yard of Healy & Brown. After sitting
things to the bottom they found the
source of the story. 1t appears that
Sunday morning some children were
playing in the yard of John Friedrich
ard left an old rag doll lying in the
snow. Some one later found the doll
and reported the fact to another neigh
Dor. Soon some who live in the
neighborhood got hold of the story
and elaborated on the facts until it APP
peared that there was case of infanti-
eide for the officers to investigate. 1t
was nothing more or less than a story
of gossips.

U. s. Senator.

The first ballot for a United States
senator to succeed Hou. j. V. Quarles
will be taken in the legislature this
Tuesday evening. The Free Press is
certain that Gov. LaFollette will be
elected on the first ballot, and says
"This fact developed tonight at con-
ference of administration members of
the assembly called to discuss what has
been until tonight one of the most COM
pick situations ever known in a sena-
torial contest in Wisconsin. Forty
eight members of the assembly were
present, and of this number forty-six
agreed tc vote in the senatorial caucus
Monday night until nomination shall
be made and also that they will vote for
the nomination of Gov. LaFollette to
prevent adjournment without nomina-
ton. They also agreed to stand to-
gether on the proposition that the
senator shall be named by the admins
tration forces"
The Milwaukee Sentinel says the
governor has failed and those counted
on to support him, will, when the time
comes, be found against him. AS Gov.
LaFollette has come out ahead in about
everything he has undertaken, it is
thought his plans are we'll laid and that
he will secure the election if he wants
it. G. o. Marsh, who is clerk of the
assembly, says that he saw the figures
of an assemblyman, who made the fol.
lowing guess as to the first ballot
