Paul's Appearance.

All that we know of Pauls personal
appearance from his own writings is
found in II Corinthians 1910, which in
dicates that he did nyt not possess the
advantage OF a distinguished or i'm
posing presence His stature was some
what diminutive, his eyesight weak
(see acts 23:5 and Gal. 4:15). nor did he
regard his address as impressive. Much
of this personal criticism, however, may
have been the outcome of the apostle S
desire to avoid magnifying himself or
his own talents. A fourth century tab
let represents him as venerable looking
and digpified, with a high, bald fore
head, full bearded and with features
indicating force of character. One ar
cient writer says Pauls nose was
strongly aquiline. All the early pic
lures and mosaics as well as some of
the early writer's (among them Malalus
and Nicephorus) agree in describing the
apostle as of short stature, with long
face, prominent eyebrows, clear com
lexion and a winning expression. the
whole aspect being that of power and
gnity. The Oldest known portrait is
the Roman panel of The fourth century,
already referred to abCve.-The Chris
tian Herald.

Borrowed PlumeS.

So fashionable has it become in Ger
many for students to display at least
one scar, the souvenir of a duel, that
there has now arisen quite an OppOr-
tunity for skilful and INSCRIPTIONS sur
geons in the making or artificial scars
which will sufficiently decorate the
youthful countenance with marks OF
savage alterations without the risk
attendant on participation in a genuine
duel. The commercially acquired
wounds of honor have the advantage
over those obtained In actual combat
that they may be placed where the pa
tent wills instead of falling at some in
convenient spot where they distort the
manly visage instead of adding the last
touch of fascination to its charms. A
dashIng slash across the cheek is the
favorite situation for a scar of this kind.
The older men of Germany and the gen.
uine duelsts are indignant over this
ruse whereby irresponsible youth seeks
to win laurels without taking risks

An Irishman who, with his wife, is
employed on a truck farm in New Jer-
sey. recently found himself in a bad
predicament when, in attempting to
evade the onslaughts Of a savage dog,
assistance came in the shape Of his
wife.
When the woman came up the dog
had fastened his teeth in the calf Of
her husbands leg, and was holding on
for dear life. Selling a stone in the
road, the Irishman's wife was about to

Poverty i'm Rome.

Poverty in Rome is described as
more squalid than that of any city in
Continental Europe. ION the Testac-
clio, formerly a rubbish heap near the
Porto San Paola, families of ten. fif-
teen and even twenty-five perscIls have
been reported to be living in one small
room with a single window overlook
ing a courtyard and no sanitary ac-
commodtion," says London Eyeryman.
This was four years ago. During the
administration of the Jewish mayor,
Nathan, the city of st. Peter, has, it
is said, greatly improved. Living con-
ditions are better. II was formerly no.
toriously unhealthy, but has become
one of the healthiest cities of Europe.
Rome lives on the foreign visitor,
however. and the reasonable objection
made to Mayor Nathan was that in
undermining Rome nothing would be
left to attract foreign visitors who flock
there by thousands.

Enjoins County from
Digging Drains on His
Property in Belleville

A temporary injunction restraining
the Essex County Board of Free
holders from digging drains on his
property was secured yesterday aft
efnoon in Chancery Court by Theo-
dcre Jerolaman, of 449 Washington
avenue, Belleville. Mr.. Jerolaman
owns property on the east side of
Washington avenue, 200 feet south of
Little street. The property runs back
TO. the Newark-Paterson branch of
the Erie railroad
During the storm of last week all
the water which ran down Malone
street, fronting Jerolaman's property,
was not carried off by the storm
sewer at the corner of Washington
avenue and Malone street. Workmen
employed by the freeholders started
digging trenches through Jerolaman'
property to carry off the overflow.
Jerolaman ordered the men from his
property but they refused to leave.
y Through his counsel William III.
Parry, the complainant showed that
the freeholders had dug the trenches
Without securing permission. For
l1any years the water was allowed to
run through Jerolaman's property,
but recently he filled in the excava-
Hions and stored a quantity of build
jig material and crushed stone on
the site. 1t is understood that the
freeholders claim the right to send
the water through Jerolaman's prop
ION for twenty years. Viee-Chancel-
lor Emery, who granted the tempo
rary injunction. fixed next Tuesday
as the date when the freeholders must
show cause why the injunction should
not be made permanent.

time Jules had cooked enough steak

good--in the same grease in which the
potatoes had been fried, and by the
time we got through with the potatoes
and the steak Jules brought out a
gigantic salad of fresh lettuce with
the vinegar and salad touched up in
a daring and artistic fashion with a
BIT of garlic. When that was done his
soldier walters served cheese. And
then came coffee, which had sent its
steam up to the cold, fresh grapes.
Most of the time Jules, In his blue
coat, his red trousers, his soldier
shoes and his chefs cap, stood look
ing on as if daring even the highest
officer there-who happened to be part
general-to say that something was
the matter with the meal. In truth,
the only thing the matter with it was
that we all ate too much. l made
this complaint to Jules and he said:

a man with an overfull stomach" All
this time, remember. the cannon were
booming, and not far away men are

While the meeting was open to only

Canada because of his slanderous and
filthy remarks.
When a meeting for women was
held at the opera house large crowd
gathered in front of the building, and
