ANTIQUARIAN TREASURE.

Two curious skeletons were discov- cred recently by workmen who were laying water mains near the old river Ivel, at Biggleswade, North Bed fordshire, England, and they have now been removed to the British museum for the consideration of the British Antiquarian society. An tiquarians are of the opinion that they are the remains of a Phoenician chieftain and his wife. As they are in a good state of preservation, the relics are of almost priceless value. The skeleton of the male measured six feet six inches, and the head was massive. The woman was laid at right angles to the man, with her feet resting against the side of his body. Apparently, when her lord died, she was slain and buried with him, according to prehistoric cus- tom.

REMEDY FOR MOTHS.

Air the bedclothes thoroughly, fold the blankets in paper and scat ter freely among the folds hemlock or arbor vitae sprigs, dry sweet flags, lavender or sachet powder. These are equally as effective as moth balls and give the bed clothes an agreeable odor. Paste the ends of the paper together and paste wrapping paper over the top of the case in such . way so as to leave no cracks through
 which moths can find entrance. Place these in large packing box which has been lined with heavy wrapping paper and then nail down the lid. -Woman's National Weekly.

PERILS OF MODERN LIFE
Aviator Cites Case of Jorkins to Show Walker Ia in as Great
 Danger as Flyer.

Miss Harriet Quimby, after one of her daring aeroplane flights at Min cola, L. l., smiled lightly at re- porter's mention of the danger of flying.
 "Oh, there's danger everywhere" she said. "The walker is in as much danger almost as the fier. Did you never hear about the fate of Jor- kins ?"
 "Jorkins, poor fellow, came from the country to New York. The noise and confusion of New York quite upset hhim. Threading his way across the busy street, he thought he would go mad.

 "Jorkins leaped to the right just in time to escape a motor car.

 "He darted to the left from under the very wheels of an automobile fire engine.

 "Jorkins, looking up in the air, now saw a monoplane, its tail smashed, falling straight upon him. He glared wildly round, caught sight of manhole, lifted the cover and jumped down into a black hole just in time to be cut in half by an un- derground electric train"

sTRAplVARi:

Antonio Stradivari, the Italian yi- olin maker, was born in 1649 and died in 1737. He was the pupil of Nicoli Amati, in whose employment he remained until about 1879, when he began making violins on his own account. He settled the typicall pattern of the Cremona violin, and his instruments, for tone and finish, have never yet been excelled. His improvements consisted chiefly in lowering the height of the arch of the belly, in making the four corner blocks more massive, in giving great CT curvature to the middle ribs, in altering the setting of the sound holes and in making the scroll more massive and prominent. He reached his greatest perfection in his art about 1T14. He also made many. other kinds of musical instruments, but 1t Is on his violins of all kinds that his fame rests.
 There are many so-called Stradi- vari violins in existence, but few, if, any of them, are genuine.

CAMPHOR FOR A COLD.

In its early stages an acute cold may be avoided by use of camphor. If the chest seems "tight' rub it thoroughly with equal parts of sweet oil and camphor, and wear com- press during the night of flannel sat- urated with the mixture, heated and covered with dry flannel. Three or four drops of camphor in a glass of hot water, taken at night, is excel lent. If the throat is a little sore use gargle of ten drops of cam- phor to tablespoonful of water, be- ing careful not to swallow this. Rub ping the nose with sweet oil and camphor and inhaling the fumes of the, latter will help matters when the head has sensation of fullness.
