old Egyptian Perfumes.

Priests in Egypt, who were the sole
depOsitaries Of science, knew the Sc
cret Of aromatic substances and pre-
pared them themselves. Egyptian
perfumes acquired great celebrity, es-
pecially those made II Alexandria.
Reserved originally for religious rites,
perfumes subsequently became Of cur
rent use among the wealthy classes.
During banqnets they were llffused
through the halls and were burnt In
profusion. The lsraclltes during their
sojourn In Egypt adopted the use Of
aromatic substances primarily for re-
ligious purposes and afterward for
personal usage. The Greeks, who
loved elegance. were, especially ad-
dlctcd to the nse Of perfumes. ana
they taught their secrets and usage
to the Romans. who were not content
to use merely the perfumes Of the
orlent-aloes, myrrh. incense aud nard
but also made perfumes similar to
those of the present day--scents OF
lilies. lavender. roscs and thyme.

Clam. Ths. Drown Men,. !.

Those of us whose acquaintance
with clans embraces only the Little
Neck variety are slow TO think evil Of
any members of so delightful family,
but the ipoffensive Little Neck has
some big brothers who vigorously re-
sent any attempt to pry into their per-
sonal affairs Men have accidentally
stepped into the open jaws of these
huge clans at low tide. and the clans,
slOsing their jaws, have held them fast
until the tide rose, when the men were
drowned. Other men have reached for
a lure in the form Of luminous spot.
The instant they touched it the shells
Of clam closed on their arms, and In
n few minutes the men We're drowned.
Some Of these clans that trap mon
are founded imbctlded In the coral
reefs of the Pacific and Indian oceans.
and the men captured are pearl divers.

The Moons Mission.

Some partisans of final causes have
Imagined that the moon was given to
the earth to afford 1t light during the
night, but IN this case nature would
not have attained the end proposed
since we are often deprived ut the
same time Of the light Of both sun and
moon. To bayc accomplished this end
1t would have been sufficient to have
placed the moon ut first In opposition
to the sun and In the plane Of the clip
tic Mt a distance from the earth equal
TO the one hundredth part Of the dis.
tance OF the earth from the sun and to
have impressed on the earth and moon
parallel veloclties proportional to their
distances from the sun. In this case
the moon. being constantly IN opposi-
tion TO the sun, would have described
round II an ellpse similar to that of
the earth These two bodies would
then constantly succeed each other,
and as at this distance the moon could
not be eclpsed It's light would always
replace that of the sum- I.aplace.

two at his theater, promising her E12O
for each. She consented, but when
Gallo Went to take her the second

she replied, with an air Of surprise.
"Oh. the fl20 for yesterdays perform
