Every race and every age uncon-
sciously write their character In the
buildings which they erect, In the kind
Of furniture they put in them and the
kind of streets on which they place
them. If great American city were
buried 1000 years under mass Of
ashes, as Pompeii was, and was then
excavated, it would be plainly seen
what manner of people had lived in
1t. Our "skyscrapers" and tunnels
and mechanical conveniences would
show how ingenious we were and how
our laws permitted every man to build
without regard to shutting off his
neighbours sunshine; they would show
how we did business and how we cared
chiefly for saving time and making
money. Our city would show that we
cared less for beauty than men did in
former times. 1t would show that a
few people were as rich as kings and
lived in palaces, but that there were
hundreds of thousands who were liy-
ing in crowded tenements like ants in
an anthill. Our school buildings would
show how we cared for education and
our churches would indicate our man
ner of worship. All our good and bad
qualities would be revealed by the
things we had made, even If all the
books about US had perlshed.-St. |

STALE FOOD.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

| Balaclava, in the Crimea, scene of
in recent years been discovered to be
the site of an ancient Greek city. Much
| of this buried town, which is believed
to be the Chersonesus Taurica, the
scene of Euripides' "Iphigenia in
Tauris," has been excayated with most
interesting results.
Besides the ruins of temples and Of
homes, says Miss Annette NJ B. Menkin
in new volume on Russia, there have
been found many things which indi-
cate that the city was abandoned hdr-
riedly. Money was left scattered on
floors, and bits of bread and other food
In disordered array.
Near a stone canal was found an
eggs which probably dated back TO a
period before the birth of Christ. Three
had been broken by falling earth, and
two smashed to atoms, but one was
quite whole, with dried-up yolIl in
side it. Some careless housewife had
failed to keep track of a pullet.
Thousands of Russian tourists visit
the museum at Balaclava, and as these
eggs attracted more attention than all
the marbles and other fine specimens,
the archaeologist has fitted up what he
calls an archaeological buffet" In
glass case are the remains of the eggs,
the bits of bread, grain, and many
other reminders of Greek cookery, and
about this the tourists may be found
grouped at all times of the day, more
impressed than by anything else in the
place.

Eject Produced ~ the Force .
Bloed Pressure.
In a paper on LEFT and RIgbt-Hand
edne@," DIR. Lueddeckens gives some
interesting information regarding thi,
subject 1t has been a weli-known fac
that the stronger activity Of the nerve:
Of the right half Of the body (for no,
only the hand Is concerned) must be
Inscribed to prepondeFance of the left
side Of the brain, whose finer develop
ment, especially as the seat OF the cen
ter Of speech, is matter Of common
knowledge.
In the said paper, according to the
German periodical Woche, the question
regarding the causes Of the unequal
working of the two hemispheres of the
brain has been solved. A sketch dwell
ing on the history Of evolution leads
from the original symmetry OF the or
ganisms to a subsequent asymmetrical
Arrangement OF the heart and the large
blood vessels, from which may be in
ferred quite naturally that the two
halves of the head are not placed on
an equal footing as regards the guam
tity Of blood supplied, and consequent
ly OF the blood pressure, and that, on
the contrary, there must be under nor
NAL conditions stronger pressure In
the arteries of the left side of the head.
This theory is supported by the we'll
known experiences of anatomists and
Psychologists, and series Of interesting
observations
OF special interest Is the effect of the
greater blood pressure upon the left
eye. DR.. Lueddeckens found in the
latter, as compared with the right one,
in surprisingly large number of cases,
a narrower pupil, in consequence of
more filed up condition of the vessels
Of the iris, and upon closer examna-
ton, shorter construction of eyeball
This furnishes the hitherto unknown
reason for the fact that in a large num-
Der of persons the left eye is the better
one.
Thus the finer development of the

n the most natural way. 1t is remark

above described conditions is afforded

In relation thereto stands the habit |

cious endeavor to relieve the right |

Facts About Coffee.

Coffee originally came from the is
land of Mocha, when in the year 1916
coffee trees were transported to Hol-
land. This article of diet was first
scientifically cultivated at Surinam by
the Dutch in 1T1S.. Though coffee was
not known either to the Greeks or Ro-
mans, it was used as a beverage by the
Persians in early times. The first cof-
fee house of which there is any record
was opened in Constantinople in 1911,
and coffee was first brought to France
in 1862 by Theyenet, the famous tray
eler.

as possible; then slice them on all

How to Make /. Furniture Polish.


To make furniture polish use one
ounce Of brown beeswax, one-halt
ounce of white wax, one-half ounce OF
CASTLE soap, one-half pint of turpentine
and one-half pint of water Shred the
brown and white wax into 9 Jar Ga
two pound jam jar will do, add the
turpentine and let it stand on the stove
until dissolved. Shred the soap and
let it boil in the water until quite dis
solved. Allow to cool, then pour into
the Jar and stir all the ingredients to-
gether. When cold, it will be a thick
cream and must be kept air tight. For
old furniture this produces a deep,
glowing polish quite different from any
other, and it does not finger mark.
