Old Roman Hairpins.

That deadly implement, the hatpin OF
modern times, is /, descendant Of an
equally formidable toilet article used
by Roman women. The Aspasias and
Julias and Claudias who decked them
selves a couple of thousand years or.
more ago, to the ,lndoing of the par
ticular Balbus or Marcus they desired
to fascinate, Wore bone hairpins Of
prodigious length. Yet, like the wo-
men of this present time, they seem to
have experienced the same difficulty in
keeping them III place. This fact came
to light during excavations at Silches-
ter, near Reading, England, hundred
or 50 of these bone hairpins being
found III the Roman bath, collected
maybe by the bath attendant, to prove
all these centuries later that there Isl
nothing new under the sun and that irs
all ages the same little foibles have
been possessed by women. ~ s.l%

BlELA,s COMET.
= -~-S-=N
Its Sensational Career Before 1t van-
ishcd INro.a Our Sight.

All Europe was in pangs of terror
when in 1872 it was announced that
Scla',; comet would cross the earths
path People died of terror. and so Sc,
rious did the scare become that Part-
sian professor be ged the Academy of
Science to publicly refute the assertion.
The comet came blaZed awhile in the
Sky and vanished. Its period of revO-
luton round the sun being just under
seven years. it came again in 1899 and
was due once more early i'll 1876. But
In that year, instead of one comet, two
nppcared. The original comet had di-
viled into two parts, each of which
had Il separate existence, though their
paths We're the same.
In 1862 the two comets again came
flying into sight. Their path In 1859
was too close to tee sun for telescope
scrutiny, but in 1866 1t was expected
that they would be plainly visible. But
the double comet never turned up. Nor
has 1t ever been seen since.
Comets are naturally somewhat un-
reliable They are of Very tlimsy tex
ture. One great astronomer indeed has
said that you could pack the tail of the
average comet in 4 portlnanteau. So II
they pass too near to Jupiter or any of
the big planets they are very apt to get
caught and so to disappear completely.

THROWING THE DICE.
The Ancient Germans Were Furiou

The invention Of dice has been of old

Il. c., and also to a Greek soldier nam
ed Aleu, which Is the Latin for die,
but Hrrodotus assigns both az lad

The ancient Germans would gamble
away at dice all tl}at they We're worth
and then their liberty, submitting to
slavery if they lost, and the Saxons,
Danes and Normans We're all addicted
to the game. Fox Talbot Is Of opin-
ion that the Latins invented, II not
the game, Mt least the name for the
single point, which they called unus,
The Gcrmanic races. adopting this
practice from the Greeks, translated
the Greek corruption Of unus into ass,

Of this word lies in the Latin as, the
