JUST WHERE NOAH LIVED
An American Archaeologist Declares
That the Patriarch Was a
Millionaire.

X. Y. Willard, who now resides in In
dianapolis, has been for several years
studying the archaeology of Egypt
For the last year, until his recent re-
turn to this country, reports the
Washington Star, h was engaged in
making excavations at various places
on the Nile, especially at Gizeh, in the
neighborhood of the great pyramids
Of Cheops.
Il have discovered during the last
three years. said Mr.. Willard, "just
where Noah lived, where the ark was
built, and that Noah quilt the great
pyramid of Khulu, known as the py-
ramid of Gizeh.
Noah was the greatest king this
world has ever seen. He was the
greatest of the Egyptian Pharaohs,
not excepting Rameses the Great.
Noah was a millionaire. The bibli-
cal account of the flood gives no clew
as to where he lived or where his ship
carpenters were at work for 12O years
constructing the ark.
Noah was 500 years old when the
flood came. 1t is evident that he
must have been a millionaire and a
man of great authority. He built the
ark at his own EXPENSE. Such a boat
in those times would cost more than
$500, 900. He must have been in a posi-
ton to force vast multitudes to work
for him, regardless of their interest
in him Or in his work, OF of their own
personal inclinations.
Noah built the great pyramid dur
ing the earlier part Of the fourth
Egyptian dynasty, and not more than
1900 years after God had expelled
Adam and Eve from the garden OF
Eden. If Noah's size and intellectual
powers were proportional at his age
to ours, then in brain and Drawn and
stature he, too, must have been a
giant"

Queen

A kings love dotted the country
with beautiful memorials of his mar
ried happiness when Queen Eleanor
died on November %, 1890. Not con-
tent with seeing that her o]bsequies
were performed with a magnifcence
suitable to the greatness of his love
and the deepness of his loss" Edward
l. had nine crosses erected between
Lincoln, where she died, and Charing,
where her body last rested before it's
interment. They were all beautiful;
and when we think of the Albert me-
morial-put perhaps it is better not to
think of it. 1t is ~pleasanter to remem-
Der the pretty derivation of Charing

System in HOUSEKEEPING.

One of the first things for the woman
struggling for system to DO is to try to
get the work of her house in perspective.
This is not easy. 1t is a truism that
ONE are lacking in a sense Of proper
ton, and it is no a simple matter for
one of them to get herself mentally far
enough from her work to decide the rela-
tive Importance of each item. But she
must do it, if she is to develop her sys-
TEN of work in the right way. She
should mentally range her duties in or
der and divide them into what must be
done and what may be done if circun-
stances permit. The first list will be
long enough, but the second will exceed
it. The chief trouble with housekeep-
ers is that they get the items of the
two lists mingled and confused.-Harp -

ORIGINATED PENNY PAPERS
The Father of Modern Newspapers
Was a Physician Named
n. D. Sheppard.

The newspapers of a century ago
were very different from those of to-
day. They were serious sheets intended
for business offices and were delivered
by special messengers. The man who
first thought of a bright, newsy and
cheap paper is almost unknown, says the
Washington Star. He was Horatio D.
Sheppard, and, strange to say, he was
not a Journalist. He was a student OF
medicine, who used to pass daily
through Chatham street, New York,
where all sorts Of things were sold for
a few cents. He noticed hat the cheap
est articles sold most readily. Nobody
seemed to mind spending a cent. Sud-
denly the thought of a one-cent news
paper came to his mind-to be sold by
boys, just as peanuts and candy were
sold.
Sheppard tried to interest the printers
of the town in his plan. They laughed
at it, as people laughed when Fulton
spoke of a steamboat. To sell newspa-
pers like cakes seemed ridiculous.
One printer, however, listened to
Sheppard. This was Horace Greeley.
He was born in New England in 1911.
coming to New York at 20 years of age.
He excited ridicule by his homespun
clothes, but soon people realized that
despite his clothes and peculiar appear
ance Horace Greeley knew what he was
about. With a friend named Story he
formed a partnership. They agreed to
publish Sheppard's paper, but insisted
that the price must be W. cents. On
January l, 1888, the Morning Post vas
issued amid a terrible snowstorm.
Their were few people in the streets.
The newsboys were soon chilled and
were glad to run home. The Post lived
just WI weeks and three days and then
appeared no more. The venture, how
ever, was not a failure, for from it the
modern newspaper was developed.

Generous BRIDEGROOM.

stories told in this connection, but the
following is certainly unique, besides
having the virtue of being quite true.

TRAINED TAMMANY TIGERS.
Heard About the Famous New
York Organization.

When Rt. Rev. Charles Mcdonnell, the
cultured and up-to-date Roman Cath
Ollie bishop of Brooklyn, was in Rome to
take part in the Marian congress he had
the honor of meeting the new pontiff on
several occasions. He found the sue
cessor of Leo XIII. a thoroughly wide
awake man and full of curiosity about
everything connected with the mysteri-
Gus west.
The pope asked innumerable questions
about the relative Importance of New
York and its twin city; about the
the church in both dioceses and the gen.
eral aspect Of people and things. Bishop
Mcdonnell grew quite eloquent in de-
scrlblng the great cathedral of st. Pat
rick in New York and in depicting the
handsome structure which Brooklyn
hopes soon to erect. He told of the
wonders of the two bridges which span
the East river and maket the two cities as
one, OF the glories of the residential dis
trlcts and the myriad attractions of the
business sections, and last of all he
oWelt on the beauties Of the two parks.
Central and Prospect.
The pontiff seemed much impressed
oAd liz the extent Oh CenIral Dark was
conveyed to him by familiar illus
trations, he reflected a moment. and
then commented:
We'll, that explains something that.
has puzzled me for weeks. | read in
n OF the Roman papers that a few
days before the recent national cleo
tlon held in you country a procession
OF several hundred Tammany tigers pa
raded up and down the streets. It ap-
peared marvellous to me and to several
prelates to whom | spoke, and we
thought 1t II Of those exaggerations,
u~nhapplly so prevalent in the daily
press. Now that you tell me of this
great and wonderful park. I can see that
this was possible; but it must have TAX
en- much skill and patience to train the
tigers so perfectly. 1t is indeed a Won
derful country"

HOME LIFE OF RUSSIANS.
Monotonous Regularity of the Daily
Routine Among the Wealth.
Ter Glasses.

The daily life of a Russian couple Of
the weather. classes is singulraly reg
ular n monotonous, varying only
with the changing seasons. In sum-
mer the lord of the house gets up
about sever o'clock and puts on, with
the assistance of his valet de chambre,
a simple costume, consistly chiefly of
a faded, plentifully stained dressing
gown. Having nothing particular to
do, he sits down at the open window
and looks into the yard, says the New
York Herald. Toward nine o'clock
tea is announced and he goes into the
dlnlng-roOm-a long, narrow apart
ment, with bare wooden floor and no
furniture but a table and chairs. Here
he finds his wife with the tea urn be-
fore her. In a few minutes the
younger children enter the room, kiss
their papa's hand and take their places
around the table. AS this morning
meal consists merely of bread and tea,
it does not last long, and all dispense
to their several occupations.
The head Of the house begins the
labors of the day by resuming his seat
at the open window and having his
Turks pipe filled and lighted by a boy
whose special function is to keep his
masters pipe in order. The housewife
spends her morning in a more active
a AS soon as the breakfast table
has been cleared she goes to the lar
der, takes stock Of the provisions, ar
ranges the meals and gives to the
cook the necessary materials, with de-
tailed instructions as to how they are
to be prepared. The rest of the morn
ing she devotes to her other household
duties.
Toward n o'clock dinner is an
nounced and Iv%anovitch prepares his
appetite by swallowing at a gulp a
wine glass of homemade bitters. Din
ner is the great event of the day.
Food is abundant and of good quality;
but mushrooms, onions and fat play
rather too important a part in the re-
past, and the whole is prepared with
very little attention to the recognized
principles of hygiene. No sooner has
h last dish been removed than a
deathlike stiffness falls upon the
house. 1t is the time of the after din
ner siesta.
The young folk go into the garden
and all the members of the household
give way to droWsiness naturally en-
gendered by a heavy meal on a not
summer day. I~vanovitch ~retires to
his own ROOM, from which the flies
have been carefully expelled by his
pipe bearer. His wife dozes in a big
armchair in the sitting-room, with a
pocket handkerchief spread over her
face. The servants snore in the cor
ridor, the garnet Or the hay shed, and
even the old watch dog in the corner
of the yard stretches himself out al
full length on the shady side of his
kennel.
In about two hours the house grad
ually reawakens, doors begin to creak,
the names of the various servants are
bawled out in all tones, from bass to
falsetto, and footsteps are heard in the
yard. Soon a man servant issues from
the kitchen, bearing an enormous tea
urn which puffs like a little steam en-
CINE. The family assemble for tea.

FANClES OF THE FASHIONS
Details of Dress That Are at Present
Attracting Feminine
Attention.

The age of a frock is tested by it's
sleeve.
White lilacs are favored for the bri-
dial bouquet.
Don't get ermine for an all-round
fur. It's too dressy.
The fur muff with a big pocket is a
practical whim.
These elbow sleeves necessitate a
small fortune for gloves.
Mustard yellow and old gold are two
Of the revived colors.
A curious bright shade of muskrat
brown is thought very smart.
A daisy chain of silver makes a pref
ty belt for any light silk frock.
Suede belts with hand satcheIs to
match are among the attractive little
accessories.
Red is little used as trimming, but in
an entire costume it seems to be quite
the thing.
A rose sparkling with a diamond
dewdrop forms the head of one lovely
gold hatpin.
A silk f1ounce on a dress of diaphan-
Gus stuff is one of the novelties of the
season.
Most waists when made of the same
material as the skirt show some sort
of draping effect.
Airy, light and fimsy stuffs are uni
versal for evening, reception and res
taurant dinner gowns.
Skirts of evening gowns are very
full, with shorter train and trimmed
half way to the knee.
Tight little Marie Antoinette elbow
sleeves, finished with a broad fiounce.
are orr in evening gowns.
Beads, jewels and laces run riot over
the evening slipper, each one of which
is becoming a veritable work of art.
Entire wreaths of little button roses.
tied with a small bow of ribbon or vel
vet, are pretty for the debutante.
Gray furs need care in the choosing.
Those with a ~yellowish cast are not
nearly so becoming as the blue grays.

Quickly Changed His Mind,

A tramp, dirty and ragged to the last
degree, called at a house on the door Of
which was a doctors sign. A large,
rather masculine looking woman opend
the door.
"'Scuse me. lady said the tramp,
'but l jist called to ask if the doctor had
any old clothes he'd let me have. You
see, I'm kind O. bad off fer all kinds O.
clothes, an I'd be much obleeged fer

The woman smiled and made reply:
