Illustration Of Form.

the Syracuse Herald office, said sue.
cess depended on form. He explained
what he meant by form. Then, by
way of illustration. he added:
Everything. everything, goes by
form. Thus. out West in the old days,
1t was the essence OF form to be i'm
formal. My father used to tell about
squire who would marry the youna
couples that came to him in some such
form. As this:
Bill, do ye take this gal whose

Remains In Java Of Great Works Of
Eiahth Century.

Ei0ntn century,
The Boroboedoer, unearthed by Sir
Stamford Raffes when the English
ruled in Java, was built by the Hin
dVs IN the eighth century and Is by
H. tho finest example of their work in
the island. Standing on a hill in the
middle of the valley, this imposing ed
iice, covering nearly ten acres, rises
to a height of upward Of a hundred
feet above the summit of the hill.
It CONSISTS, says a Java correspond
ent of the Shanghai Mercury, of a
series of stone terraces built on top
Of each otter in diminishing magni-
tude, SO as to leave circumscribing gal
leries, and crowned By vast cupola;
entrance to the galleries is gained by
four stairways, north, south, east and
west, which run from the ground
straight up to the big top terrace, in
the middle of which stands the crown
ing cupola, surrounded by numerous
smaller lattice work cupolas, and from
which one may step inside into any
Of the intermediate galleries.
The whole is built Of stone, showing
an immense amount Of carving, and
though there is no genuine inside to
the temple many Of the galleries are
covered in, innumerable images Of
Buddha occupy inches or prominent
positions on the walls, and the sides
OF the galleries were paved with bas-
reliefs, indicating the glorifcation of
this god and other Incidents In his
history. When one considers that
there are several miles Of bas-reliefs
alone the work expended on the pyra-
mids Of Egypt pales into insigniflcanee
before this stupendous undertaking.

days ago and reported that his ship

Beaufort scale, a scheme OF wind

Admiral Beaufort before the days Of
oceangoing steam. Force 1 was a
calm, force light breeze, and so
on up to the hurricane velocity.
Perhaps, too, the Beaufort scale

A SUNDAY HEN ALL RIGHT.

Georgetown, Del, June IA
Mrs. Asher H. Lingo, of near
Warwick, possesses an intelligent
hen which she says can determine
between the days of the week and
is especially particular about the
observance of Sunday.
According to Mrs. Lingo, the
hen has two nests, one a weekday
nest and the other a Sunday nest.
During the week her eggs can be
always found in the one nest, but
as sure as Sunday comes, the hen
hurries to the other and stays
there until Monday again.
The educated hen came to Mrs.
Lingo in a strange way, about
four weeks ago, when, as a farm
er drove by with a load of hay,
the hen jumped off and proceed
ed to acquire a home at the Lingo
place.
