be list of nearly all the great capt.
tails of the world. Persepolis. the
splendid residence Of long series Of
rulers whose tributary provinces ey.
tended from the Indus to the Helles-
pont, was burned. with all its pal
aces and temples. Babylon and Car.
thage were so utterly destroyed that
their very location has become mat
ter of doubt. Rome was burned eight
times. Jerusalem four times. and.

The second temple is not like the first
Athens. Syracuse, Bagdad, Alexan.
drio and Antioch now exhibit only n
shadow of their former grandeur. The
Phoenicians, like the Spartans and AS
syrians. disappeared with the ruin OF
their capitals. but the most fatefu'
confagration recorded in the history
of the world is perhaps that of Mos
COW.
"They talk as if the fate Of Europe
had been decided at Waterloo" says
De Bourienne in his memoirs Of the
first empire. ''If Napoleon had beaten
Wellington aud Butcher dozen times
1t could not have retrieved the reverses
of the three preceding years. The
truth is that the French Caesar and
his fortune were ruined by the burn

tinction of being also fully licensed

This strange combination of business
dates from the reign of George w.,
who. after attending a cocktight at
Hockey -in-the Hole. applied to the
landlord Of the Castle for u temporary
accommodation on the security of his
watch and chain. By royal warrant
a few days later he invested that
obliging boniface with the right of ad-
vancirg money on pledges, and from
that time down to the present pawn
brokers' license has been annually
granted to the Castle. This hostelry
is mentioned once or twice by Dickens

Reasons of church. state or other

Avoid Waste by the Judicious Use Of

guilty of wicked waste.
The end Of q porterhouse steak is
unfit to serve when broiled. 1t should
be cut off. This, together with the
bone and juice left on the platter, a
bay leaf, three or four cloves, an on

make several cups of bouillon. The ribs
should be cut out of roast when pre-
pairing 1t for the oven. These, with
the leftover gravy, may be used in a
similar way for stock.
