Cleopatra's Needles,

Cleopatra's needles are two Egyp-
tian obelisks. which were originally
erected in the Temple OF the Sun, In
Heliopolis. by Thotmes III. some three
thousand five hundred years ago. In
the reign OF Tiberlus they we're
brought from Heliopolis to Alexandria,
and set up In front OF the Temple OF
Caesar. They are Of red granite and
are covered with hieroglyphics, which
relate the title OF Thotmes and his n.
lustrious descendant, Rameses II, who
lived 200 years after Thotmes. One
OF the obelisks. which long lay pros.
trate. was, after an adventurous voy.
age, taken to London In 1873 and set
up on the Thames embankment. Il
weighs 1856 tons. and is 6Sts feet high.
The other was presented to the city
OF New York through the department

When Preserving Pears.

To prepare ripe pear for preserving.
place the pears in convenient vessel.
cover with boiling water. put closely
fitting cover on the kettle and let
stand 15 minutes, when the skins will
peel of as readily as from scaided
tomato. Cut each peeled pear In
halves. and with sharp pointed knife
remove the core. The heat will have
penetrated sufficiently to cause the
core to come away easily. Drop the
halves in cold water. as quickly as they
are peeled. to prevent their turning
dark. Preserve In the usual way. This
method does away entirely with the
sticky. slippery sensation which usual
ly accompanies the peeling Of pears,
saves half the time ordinarily re-
quired. and the finished product Is
more pleasing by reason Of the
smooth. even appearance Of the fruit.

WHEN WAR IS SILENT
HAS NO soPHISTRY WITH WHICH
TO CONFRONT WOMAN.
Great as Must Be Acknowledged Are
His Powers Of Deception They
Fall In the Presence of the
Mother Of the Slain.

War sat on high place near the
city named Earth, where all who
passed along the highway called Life
could see him as they went on their
journeys. Among those who took their
eyes from the ground was King. When
he saw'War he stopped.
"Who are you that sits beside the
highway of Life?" asked King.
War answered:
"I am Power, and Dominion, and
Pride, am the maker and unmaker
of dynasties. I set up and pull down
the rulers of Earth, the great city in
which you dwell BY me wealth and
strength are apportioned. dishonor is
redeemed, right is made plain, and
justice Is DONE"
So King went his way. thinking.
"War is good"
Soon there came Young Man, and
he too asked who War was.
War said:
T am Adventure and Daring. Bold.
ness and Hardihood. bestow renown
and distinction on men. Those who
follow me grow brave Of spirit and
hard Of body. They learn the happi.
ness that comes from ardent toll, the
Joy that is born Of struggle. The peo-
pie Of Earth look with greatest favor
on those who enroll themselves in my
record book and reward them with the
first consideration"
Young Man whistled as he followed
the highway called Life, and cried
aloud, war is nobel"
Next Old Man, weak of sight and
hard of hearing, peered at War and
said: who are you, up there?"
To Old Man War replied:
81 am Memory and the Thoughts OF
Yesterday. 1t was who filed your
heart with friends and clothed your
mind with the good memorials OF a
glorious past. I took from you your
arm, but in its place I gave you some-
thing far better. the service Of de-
voted friend. BY me you were made
poor in pocket, to beg your bread as
you walked the highway called Life,
but in exchange gave you the great
days OF your manhood to comfort and
sustain you"
Old Mans face was lighted by his
thoughts of the brave days when he
knew War. and as he set one foot be-
fore the other he chuckled. and struck
his thigh with his hand. and mumbled
in his beard: 'T mind now that War
is the great thing"
But then there came on the high
way called Life Woman, who had
borne sons that War had destroyed.
and daughters who had wept upon her
skirts for their husbands that War
had torn from them; Woman, who
had dried the ears OF orphans War
had made and stanched the blood OF
wounds that War had given; Woman.
who had mourned Wars dead, and
starved that War might eat.
And Woman saw War and asked
him nothing, but fed shrieking away
from him on the highway called Life;
and as Woman fed from him War was
silent. for he had no words to speak
