An Aid to Hearing.

woman customer as she left a pair of
opera glasses for repairs at Chest
nut street store. II can't hear well at
the theater without them
Another customer who was waiting
smiled when the women left at her ap-
parent mistake. ''She meant she could
not see" he observed.
No." rejoined the optician: "she
meant just what she said. Opera
glasses are an aid to hearing as well
as to sight. You can prove it any time
you are seated well toward the rear fin
a theater by training the glasses on a
singer. AS long as you keep the singer
under scrutiny with the glasses YOU
will be able to follow the words Of the
song with ease. Drop the glasses and
you will notice a difference. It will
require more or less Of a strain to
catch the enunciation distinctly.
BY the use of opera glasses a the

Department at Washington Is a law
yer, keen and round, who looks after
that particular kind OF business. 1t
is a very large business, for in the
twelve months Of the last fiscal year
Assistant Attorney General r. p. Good
win was instrumental in excluding
from the mails the letters Of almost
$50 different men and concerns. This
fiscal year, beginning with July, the
offenders are more numerous than
ever. The files in Mr.. Goodwin's we'll
conducted Office are bullying with pa
pers in these cases.
There are recruits, OF course, in this
peculiar class Of wrongdoers, whose
days and nights are devoted to
schemes for deceiving the unsophisti-
Gated public, and who would use the
Postof1ice Department to help their en-
terprises along. But there are very
many confirmed ones, who, driven out
Of business under one name, soon be-
gin under another.
1t is amazing how persistent some
Of the offenders are and equally re-
markable to what extent people will
put their money into questionable ven
lures, says Mr.. Goodwin. Lewis. the
man who started the United States
Bank at ST. Louis, secured about So.

Changing the Subject.

The late Hon Charles w. Slack told
the following of the Hon. Peter Har-
vey, the friend and biographer of Dan
lei Debster:
Mr. Harvey was large man with a
small voice and that pomposity of
manner that many very diffident men
possess. Above everything he valued
and prided himself upon his friendship
with the great expounder."
The first year Of the War of the Re-
belIion he went through to Washing
ton, and on his return was asked how
he liked President Lincoln.
"Well,' he said, MFR. Lincoln is
very singular man. l went on to see
him, and told him that l had been an
Intimate personal friend OF Daniel
Webster: that I had talked with him
so much on the affairs of the country
that | felt perfectly confident I could
tell him exactly what Mr.. Webster
would advise in the present crisis. and
thereupon | talked to Lincoln for two
solid hours, telling him just what he
should do and what he should not do.
and, will you believe it, sir. when got
through all Mr.. Lincoln said was. as he
elapped his hand on my leg, Mr.. Har-
vey, what tremendous great calf you

"A DEAD PAST

CHAPTER XIII.-(Continued.)
By MRS. LOvETT CAMERON

CHAPTER XIII.-(Continued
Every time that Brian was out by
himself Kitten suffered tortures of appre-
hension; so great, indeed, became her
suffering on this score that one day
she summoned up all her courage anu
spoke once again to him of the subject
which she knew he wished her to con-
slider forbidden one.
Brian, will you be very angry with
zne?" she said to him, timidly.
She was standing ready dressed for
her drive, and her husband had prom
ised to go with her to return some visits;
he was looking at her fondly and very
admiringly. Never had Kitten looked
prettier. A white dress deeply trimmed
with soft lace, and a tiny white lace
bonnet perched upon her yellow hair, set
off the childlike deIicacy Of her beauty
and heightened the effect of that pale,
transparent appearance, which a painter
would have delighted in. although doe
cor might have trembled at. Brian, be-
ing accustome,. to it, looked at it with
she eyes Of painter and was charmed
with it. He smiled at her trembling
question and drew her fondIy to his side.
What dreadful sin are you meditat'
ing. kitten?'
May [ ask you one question, Brian,
and l will never speak of it again? Il
IS about that-that-otherw woman"
In Il moment his brow was black and
angry, and he had put her from him.
The tears gushed into her eyes.
Brian, don't-don't look so at ME!
cannot bear it, but l suffer so horribly.

10 see her.
SIN London, no! l do not know even
# She is alive; she may be dead. She
aas not been in England for years, there!
Now never mention this subject again.
He spoke with a great effort. 1t was
scrrible IS him even to allude TO that
ether TO this girl whom he had made his
Rife. Had she never been inquisitiye
and curious, she need never have known
anything about her. 1t was her fault. h2
ecId himself savagely, if she suffered
from her own foolish imaginings she had
40 one to blame but herself. As foc Kit

EXCAVATIONS IN CAVES.
Object Is to Find Traces of Prehistoric
Man in Them,

Man IN IheIns
Ethnologists of the country are al
most continually making excavations
in caves in various parts of the United
States in the hope of discovering tan
gible evidences of a race of men that
is supposed to have inhabited North
America in prehistoric times, accord
ing to the Washington Star. One of
the most recent Investigations made
in this country with that hope in yier'
has just been completed by Dr.
Charles Peabody, Of Phillips Acad-
envy, Andoyer, Mass. A large cave Il
Cavetown, Md. near Hagerstown, was
the scene of the explorations, and in
that place DR.. Peabody, together with
Warren X. M0oreheaG, also of Az
dover, with a force of ten men, wat
digging for more than month in
search for traces Of the early human
inhabitants of the country.
At the invitation Of Dr. Peabody,
DR.. ". H. Holmes, of the Bureau Of
American EthnoIogy, and J. D. Nc
CURE, of this city, also spent several
at NaNClONl Ii dSSISlIuS III the LII
yestigation.
No fossil bones were found by Dr..
Peabody's party in the cave in which
excavations were made, but in a quar-
ry located about 800 feet from the
mouth of the cave fossil bones Of
animals were unearthed. Some of the
fossil bones were of the early cave
bear and of the elk, but, so far as
known now, no bones of man were
found. All the bones unearthed by
the exploring party will be carefully
studied and their Identification will be
made later.
The cave in which the excavations
were made at Cavetowp is about 100
feet wide by 100 feet long. Mr. Nc
CURE made explorations in this cave
two years ago when he was collecting
specimens for the Carnegie institu-
ton. The upper strata of the cave
floor consists largely of camp ashes.
etc, and excavations in this strata bv
Mr. Mcclure revealed large quantities
of broken pottery, arrow heads, bone

by the early Indians, who evidently
had made the cave their habitation.
Underlying the strata of camp ashes
there is layer of stalagmite varying
from six inches to several feet in
thickness, and underneath this strata
is found the red cave earth similar
to the formation found in the caves
Of Europe in which fossil bones Of an
imals and Of ancient men have been
found.
Although the search for evidences
Of prehistoric man IN North America
have been conducted for many Years
without success. yet the scientists are
confident that their efforts viii some
day be rewarded with success. It is
expected that if remains of ancient
man are found they will be likely TO
be found in caves, and for that rea-
son the caves Of the country are usu-
ally the scenes of the excavations.
The fossils found III the quarry at
Cayetown by DR.. Peabody's party are
considered interesting as denoting the
class of animals that inhabited the
continent during the later geological
periods.
