QUAINT OLD DOCUMENTS.


3eNiH4aa NaeafoA ~ q WiRpaf FirU
T~snty-four Centuries Ago.
A peep into the "archiyes room
of a great business firm Of 2,40O
years ago has been made possible BY
the investigations conducted at Nip
pur under the auspices Of the Uni
yersity of Pennsylvania. This room
would be represented by the vault or
the great steel safe Of a modern
business establishment. II contains
the business records Of the firm Of
Murashu Sons Of Nippur, a concern
which was thriving in the time Of
Artaxerxes I.-that is 10 say, about
the year 464 B. G.
The records are all engraved on
clay tablets, Of which several hum
bred have been discovered. There
are mortgages, notes, legal con-
tracts and agreements Of all kinds.
One Of the most interesting Of these
records is a guarantee that an en-
erald set in q gold ring viii not fall
out for twenty years. IL reads:
"Bel-ad-iddina and Belshuna,
sons Of Bel and Hatin Of Bazuzu,
spoke unto Bel-nadin-shumu, sons
Of Marashn. thus: 'As concerns the
gold ring set with an emerald, we
guarantee that for twenty years the
emerald will not fall out Of the gold
ring. II the emerald should fall out
Of the gold ring before the end Of
the twenty years Bel-ad-iddina, Bel
shuna and Hatin shall pay unto
Bel-nadin-shumu an indemnity Of
ten mana Of silver"
This is q sample Of the remark
able documents found in the
archive room. Aarashu Sons must
have esTfied on an extensive bust
ness. The records embrace q period
Of fifty years. The firm seems to
have acted as agent for the wealthy
Persians who did not care 70 attend
in person 10 their large estates in
the hot Babylonian country.
They leased fields and other prop
critics and lived upon the revenues
thus obtained, preferring TO spend
their days among the Injuries and
attractions Of the cities. All this IL
evident from the contracts, leases
md bills Of sale Of orchards, slaves,
oxen and other possessions found
among these clay records.-Hsr-

by lions while performing at the
Fortunio menagerie at Lencon, near
Paris, the other day. While looping
the loop he fell from height of 20
feet in the air among the lions, who
at once sprang at him. Fortunately
the trainer was equal to the occa-

Mr.. T. p. OConnor, who knew

to temperance in eating and drink

then only in the form of claret and
water; but he was Incorporate in
one direction-that of cigarette
smoking. He would gulp down an
egg and a cup of tea and stick Gig
arctic in his mouth, from which a
successor was never absent through
out the day. That long life Of Lab
by enabled him to tell stories of
Bismarck in his unknown days, Of

Parents Never Can Know That Daush-
ters May Not Have to Make
Their Own Way.

Every girl in the world should be
fitted to earn living, even though
she does not have to look out for
herself. Life is uncertain, but mon
ey has a way of deserving one with
out warning. Only in the few cases
is its loss due to circumstances
which might have been avoided. One
expects to pay the price of careless
ness or recklessness, but nobody is
ever fully prepared for unforeseen
disaster.
Many a woman has blessed the
memory of parents who had been
sufficiently thoughtful to prepare
them for emergencies. Children
show signs of special ability at an
early age and in boys it is cultivated
with an eye to the future-the inev-
liable time Of bread-winning. Girls
are less fortunate, for many of them
have to go out into the world with
out special advancement and with
little thought of future advance
ment, so the occasional woman with
an abundance of persistence climbs
to safe position and the great mass
Of struggling women snatch what
they can from chance.-Milwaukee
