People are often very much disap-
pointed to find that their family ply

quire prompt treatment, and have in
many instances proven fatal before
medicine could be procured or a ply
stefan summoned. The right way is
to keep at hand a bottle of Chamber

better medicine for these diseases.

much pain and suffering and all risk.

Butter by the Yard

TN Cambridge, England, butter is sold by the
yard. For generations it has been the prac-
tice of Cambridgeshire dairy folk to roll their
butter into lengths, each length measuring a
yard and weighing pound Deity wrapped
in strips of clean white cloth, the cylindrical
rolls are packed in long, narrow baskets made
for the purpose, and thus conveyed to market.
The butter women who, in white linen aprons
and sleeves, preside the stalls in the mar
ket have no need of weights or scales for dis
pensing their wares. Constant practice and
experienced eyes enable them with a stroke of
the knife to divide yard of butter into halves
or quarters with almost mathematical exact
ness.
The university people are the chief buyers
of this curiously shaped product. In addition
to being famed for its purity and sweetness,
Cambridge yard butter" is eninently adapted
for being served to the students in the daily
commons Cut in conveniently sized pieces
and accompanied by loaf of the best wheat
bread, stated portion is sent round every
morning to the rooms of the undergraduates
for use at breakfast and tea

What There Is in Syria

ar let him go out into the great Syrian
~ desert, and he will marvel at the wealth of
standing monuments,-temples and churches,
aqueducts and private dwellings,-where now
a few wandering tribes make their homes. AS
hostile incursions from the East made life less
safe, the teeming population of the first cen
turtles of Our era slowly migrated away and left
the fertile region to the encroaChing sands,
which little by little covered all and preserved
the cities and towns for the benefit of investi-
gators of this day.
Or lastly let him go farther into Persia, to
the great hill of Musallah at Hamadan, from
which the peasants of to-day, by merely
scratching the surface, draw forth ancient
gems and carved cylinders, coins and amulets
and images. Here was Ecbatana, called Ach-
metha in the Bible, the royal city of the
Modes, whose origin antedates history itself.
Herodotus speaks of its seven concentric walls,
each painted different color, and crowned
with fortress, the battlements of which shone
with silver and gold. Ecbatana was the favor
ite residence of Queen Semiramis, who built
here vast summer palace, famed as a real
paradise. ArbaceS, the Median conqueror of
Sardanapalus last of the Assyrian monarchs,
chose the city for the capital of his newly
founded kingdom, and carried hither all the
treasure from captured Nineveh. The Persian
dynasty succeeded to the Median; but Ecba-
tana survived; and when Alexander the Great
overthrow Darius, he brought here the plumber
from the sack of Susa, Persepolis, and Pasar-
gada. The memory of Alexander still clings
to Hamadan in the many legends of "Iskan-
der" as he is known in the modern Persian
speech.
What need of more? These and other an
cient cities are still awaiting the golden touch
that will unlock the doors OF their hidden Won
ders. Would that American wealth might
give the means, and American scholarship
reap the glory!

No Limit to Choose from

IT is rather an embarrassment of riches from
which he will choose. There is Clazomena
ON the Gulf of Smyrna, birthplace of the
philosopher Anaxagoras, famed for its tenn
pies of Apollo, Artenis, and Cybele, wealthy
seaport still in the days of the poet Horace
Here a mere casual digging in the metropolis
has given us a series of magnificent Greek
painted sarcophagi; but how much is left for
the thorough searcherl There is Colophon
farther to the southeast, the effeminate and
luxurious Greek city that claimed great Homer
as its SON. There is Sardes itself, mighty CAPT
tai of the Lydian kingdom in the dim days
when history began, where wealthy Crnrsus
held his court and received the friendly visit
of the Athenian lawgiver Scion. The remains
OF temple of Cybele, of theater, of stadium,
rearing their massive walls above the surface,
give assurance of infinitely more that awaits
discovery beneath.
Asia Minor is studded with old towns of
which history q yes us the name and fame. Let
him excavate Nicaa in the north, where, in
A. d. 325, there gathered from all the Christian
world three hundred and eighteen Bishops to
formulate the historic Nicene Creed, with
Constantine the Great as president of the coun-
Gil. Let him give back to US Antioch the
Orontes, capital of the Selencid kings of Syria,
a city whose wealth was second only to that of
Rome. Here Christianity first obtained a
strong foothold, and according to the Acts of
the Apostles it was here that the very word
Christian was first applied to the followers of
Testts of Nazareth

plorer will engage experienced scholars,-an
archeologist, an epigraphist an architect, an
engineer and will follow their advice and
judgment in all matters scientific. Where
should he choose his hunting ground? Not
in Europe or Africa, for Greece and Italy
England, France, and Germany are well able
to look after explorations there, and besides
he would lose that element of Oriental strange
ness, that spice of adventure, of which have
spoken. Let him look instead to the terri
tories of the Sultan and the Shah, or still
farther to the unknown East. His scientific
assistants will see to it that permission is
granted for this is not often denied when the
expedition is properly guaranteed. And when
the funds are ready and the scholars are en-
gagged, there will be no asking, Where can
we find place to dig? Is any great old city
still unexplored?"
