oriaIn of Two Familiar Proverbs.

painter Apelles never to let day pass.
however busy he CHANGED to be, with
out practicing his hand by tracing the
outline of some object, custom which
has now passed into a proverb-"No
day without q line" He also made 1t
a rule, when he had finished a canvas,
to exhibit 1t to the view Of those who
visited his studio, while he himself,
hidden behind the picture, would listen
to their comments. II is said that once
a shoemaker censured him for having
painted pair Of shoes with one latchet
too few. Next day the shoemaker, re-
visiting the studio, saw that the paint
er had corrected the mistake. He then
began to criticise the leg Of the por-
trait, upon which Apelles came for
ward and reminded him that shoe
maker should not go beyond the shoes.

Most wondorful Cave In The World.


The most wonderful cave In the
world Is In the island Of Tonga, in the
south Pacific. Byron called 1t "a
chapel OF the seas" 1t Is formed in
rock that is almost surrounded by the
ocean. This rock Is about sixty feet
high and broad proportionately. Many
years ago a boy, the son Of a native
chief, was chasing huge turtle, when
his game seemed to sink into the rock.
The lad watched and waited until the
tide fell, disclosing a small opening In
the rock about six feet under low wa
ter mark. Diving boldly, the young
hunter entered the aperture and. to
his surprise, came to the surface in
side the rock. The rock was hollow.
and its interior was found afterward,
when the natives explored 1t with
torches, to contain many beautiful
stalactites. When attacked and fol-
lowed by enemies, the natives, who
know the secret, leave their canoes.
plunge into the water and disappear.
Their foes linger, astonlshed at their
disappearance. for no person not ac-
quainted with 1t would suspect that
the rock was hollow.
