Letter Writing In Ancient Babylon.

Letter Writing In Ancient Babylon.
1t can easily be understood that the
reading and writing Of cuneiform was
not an accomplishment in the possess
sion Of every one. Nevertheless there
were plenty Of scribes everywhere, es.
pecially in the cities, where they sat
at the temple gates to be at the service
Of the public. The frequent represen-
tations OF scribes are hence interesting
and show that IN addition to clay tab
lets the Babylonians used some sort
Of flexible material to write upon. The
large number OF letters which have
been excavated, many of them from
the ninth century before Christ, indi-
cate that a very active correspondence
was carried on in Babylonia by means
Of messengers, but even more active
was the use OF writing in commercial
dealings, which was strictly enforced
by law. Nothing was legally binding
unless II was done into writing in
the presence OF witnesses. Professor

Wnen ws were KiI Tenors.

The primitive inhabitants OF Europe
were all tenors. Their descendants OF
the present time are baritoues. and fu-
ture generations win have semibass
voices. The voice has tendency to
deepen with age. The tenor OF twenty
becomes the baritone OF twenty-eight
and the bass Of thirty-six. The inferior
races have higher pitched voices than
the more cultured, The negro has
higher voice than the white man.
Among white races the fair complex.
Toned man has n higher voice than his
darker skinned brother. The former IS
usually a baritone or a tenor the lat
ter contralto or bass. II is asserted
that tenors are usually of slender
build, whereas basses are stout. but
there are too many exceptions to such
a rule for It to be reliable The same
remark applies to the statement that
thoughtful men have deep toned voices
and vice versa. The tones OF a voice
are pereeptibly higher before than aft
er a meal. for which reason tenors are
generally careful not TO sing too soon
after dinner.-Pearson's Weekly.

THE TRYsTlNo HOUR.
How long the evening shadows how
soft the twilight breeze.
When the summer silence steals
over the blessed plain.
Hweeter grows the mock-bird's sing
ing, swaying in the trees,
When the day ia done and its CLAM
our begins to waue.
The sun goes slowly down to crimson
clouds OF glory,
Sinking from sight to lend its light
to some far-off sea,
And the rolling hills telling e'er their
old-time story
OF earth and sky, OF life and love,
smile in serenity.
SO, when the fading, falling light no
longer fingers.
The passing pageant with all its
pristine glory dies,
Then ] want to feel the tender touch
of your fingers,
To see the burning beacon lights in
your dear, deep eyes.
