Living NIunrnliHS.

Living mummies exist in Tibet, near
Gyangtse, at spot the name of which
in English may be rendered as 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.

Contrasted Types.

The outspoken romance of the Ger

different habit. The author of the trav-
cling notes called From Holiday
Journal describes a young girl whom
she met at German bath, Il pretty,
doll-iike creature, named Marie, who
knew how to sit still and do nothing
all day long.
Presently it was discovered that Ma
RE had lover. She disclosed the fact
boldly.
"Aly brautigam is young, handsome,
rich,' she said proudly, looking up to
a tall English girl Of seventeen. "And
have you not bridegroom too? Or
did you never have one?"
The English girl had never before
felt the humiliation caused by the lack
Of bridegroom. SO she shamefacedly
confessed that some one liked her, only
this spring. but
But you do not love him." interrupt
ed the German girl in loud but very
bad English. ooh, love my treasure
SOL l love him sor'
The English girl shuddered and
blushed to the roots of her hair. The
words had been distinctly spoken and
had evidently proved very amusing to
a party of English in the vicinity.

saying like instead of love next
time? We never say love in English.

How She Died.

A minor poet who talked of his lady's
person being "curiously mix'd" would
not be enthusiastically reviewed now
adays. But so startlingly beautiful
was the lady in question, one Susanna
Perwich, who died of rheumatic fever
at Hackney on July 3, 1861, Gin the
flower Of her age" that these lines in
praise of her have not only been pre-
served, but they have even escaped
classification with nonsense verse.
This explanation is, perhaps, neces-
sary before quoting the inspired ac-
count of her death:
Behold, damp sheets
Cling close about her in the bed,
At which she. waking. said. 'I'm deadp'
Shall | the careless maid so blame
And tell her what a horrid shame
1t is that by her negligence
So choice one is lost from hence?

ENVELOPES.

Why Some of Them Are COlored Blue
on the Inside.
'Why are these envelopes made blue
on the inside?" asked Il manmooking at
specimen which a wholesale station.
er held in his hand.
For very simple reason was the
reply. zone of the most important re-
suits in the making of envelopes is to
prevent transparency. Many white pa.
pers are so transparent that by careful
scrutiny the contents of an enyeODs
made Of such material may be deter
mined. For instance, let us put sheet
Of paper with writing on it into this
envelope. We will now seal it and hold
it to the light thus. There, you can not
only see the bank check, but you caA
also read many of the words on the
sheet of paper. This can be prevented
either by getting thick and high
priced envelope which is not transpar-
ent or by taking cheaper grade Of pa.
per which is blue on one side. We sell
IhouS"iuS vi ptChhScS vi piuc eh'u
opes-that is, envelopes which are blue
on the outside-but people do not like
them ON account Of their color. So to
get over the difficulty and still make
an envelope that will hide the contents
and not be high priced the manufac-
turer uses paper which is blue on one
side and white on the other. One fac
tory in this city turns out more than a
million of such envelopes daily, ana
their sale in large cities is enormous"

A tooth is u living structure. Inside
Of each tooth is cavity filed 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 surface of
enamel. Both ivory and enamel are
harder than any other bones, because
they contain Il 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 eXquiSijely 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 assimiiate matter in the saliva
and deposit it on the teeth in the shape
of phosphate of lime.

seed Special Tours Do
Wonders for the State
Corn Crop.

An official of the United States
Department of Agriculture has
written TO Mr.. G. Bosley Littig,
of Baltimore, stating that there
was a marked increase in the corn
crop of 1905, over that of the
year before.
Mr.. Littig conducted the tours
of the "corn seed special" in
Maryland last spring, and the
official says that the increase Is
doubtless, due in part to more
attention on the part of the
farmers, as a result Of the corn
train.
A comparison Of the yields OF
corn an acre in this State since
1895 is interesting, and is as fol.

1t Is quite usual after a ball to find
that the action of the heart shows
traces of fatigue, particularly in deli
cate young women, who complain of a
vague sensation of uneasiness, sad
ness and even of pain and are, in a
word, in a peculiar condition that is
not yet disease, nor is it health-much
nearer the former than the latter. Dis
eases caused by dancing are COM
moner in women than in men. The
most frequent are laryngitis, particu-
larly in women who talk a great deal
while dancing; colds, bronchitis and
sometimes pneumonia and pleurisy.
Dancing should be absolutely forbid
den in all cases of consumption, which
may assume a very rapid form from
this cause. 1t is counter indicated as
well in all cases of heart trouble.

BUSHELS.

The increase of the crop last
year over that of 1904 was 81
bushels an acre. 1t Is true that
only 62S,000 acres yielded last
year, as against 635 600 in 1904,
but the crop was far better. The
decrease in acreage was due to
the excessive rainfall. which
caused quite a lot of corn to be
stalked instead of caring prop
erly. 1t is figured that with 81
bushels more to the acre there
was an increase of 2,19S,OOO for
the same acreage in 1904, and
with corn selling at so cents a
bushel it must have yielded in
round nun berS 81, 900, 600.
1t is the opinion of farmers that
the increase was largely due to
the "corn seed special" move
ment. which was operated in
Maryland for the first time. Mr..
Littig said:
Il hope that the train will be
again operated this spring, and
that it will go into all sections of
the State. | believe it benefited
the crop and that there Will be a
better yield if it is continued"

The Egyptians had four separate and
distinct styles or forms of writing-the
hieroglyphic, the hieratic, the enchorial
and the Coptic. The hieroglyphic was
probably in use as early as the year
1000 b. c. and at first was made up
entirely of pictures. About the year
1000 B. G. the hieratic form or style
was introduced. In this the picture
hieroglyphics were greatly simplified,
finally developing into forms purely
linear. The enchorial form of writing
was in use among the Egyptians from
about the year 700 B. C. until about
the year zoo a. D. and was still a
further simplifcation of the earlier
forms, which finally developed into the
alphabetic form known as the Coptic.
