When the nineteenth century was as

called Hole in the Wall, a small cifcu-

occupied what Is now the chamber of

was across the main, corridor of the
building on the same floor. When a
wearer of the toga found himself in
need Of "snlfter" he had only to
cross over to the mails department
and pass through 1t to the little, cir
,cular room aforesaid, which was about
the size of pantry. The Hole I'm the

most precious birds in South Africa.
1t is royal game, and any person de-
stroying one is liable to fine Of, ESQ.
Majestic looking birds, they stand
about three feet high and generally go
in pairs. They are of drab color; with
black. feathery legs, and are valued
for their propensity for killing snakes.
Where the secretary bird Is seen there
are sure to be many reptiles about.
The bird beats down its adversary
first with one wing and then with the
other, at the same time trampling on
1t with It's feet until tho snake Is sutii'
cIently stunned to catch II by, the
head with its claws. Then the bird
rises far up in the air and drops Its
victim to the ground, TO BIO killed. BY
this means thousands of venomous
reptiles are destroyed.-London Scraps.

Fox blades were celebrated al
through the sixteenth and seventeenth
centuries for their excellent temper,
and mention of them is frequent In
English drama. This Is their history:
There was certain Julian del Rel,
believed to be MorIsco. who set up a
forge at Toledo In the early part of
the sixteenth century and became IA
nous for the excellence OF his sword
blades, which were regarded as the
best of Toledo. That city had for many
ages previous been renowned for
swordmaking, 1t being supposed that
the Moors introduced tho art, as they
did SO many good things, from the
east.
Julian del Refs mark was little
dog, which came to be taken for fox.
and so the "fox blade" or simply "fox"
for any good sword. See Henry v"
act 4, scene 4, 'SThou diest on point of
fox" The brand came to be Initiated
In other places. and there are soiingen
blades of comparatively modern manu-!
facture which still bear the little dog
of Julian del Rei.-London Notes and

A unique idea of the future state
was that of the ancient iHdruyidns.
AS the disembodied soul winged Its
way to eternity it encountered two
rocks, upon one OF which 1t must
needs rest The choice was deter
mined by the morality of the life in
the flesh. II It rested upon the left
hand rock 1t was instantly translated
to "Po," or oblivion, a state analogous
to the Nirvana of the orient. If
through early .misdeeds, however, the
unhappy spirit.was guided TO the right
hand rock it entered into a purga-
itorial hell where fiends grated away
the flesh from all the bones in sue
,cesslon, after which the skeleton was
reclothed and sent' back to earth for
another try. There was no haste
about this grating process. 1t took
something over 10000 years.
