1t is interesting to recall the origin
of the term philatelist, which is used
by devotees of the hobby in prefer
ence to the phrase stamp collector"
The collection of stamps was at first
rather in the nature of a schoolboy
pastime. and 1t was left to France to
initiate the scientific study of postage
stamps as distinguished from their
accumulation. A Frenchman, M. Her
pin, coined the words "philatelie" and
"philateliste," on the basis of two
Greek words. and philatelist means,
literally, "he who is fond Of that which
is tax Free" the presence of postage
stamp on letter indicating that the
postal dues have been paid In ad-
vance. Philatelist is not a beautiful
word. but 1t has at least the merit OF
being more euphonions than "timhral-
ogist," which was also suggested a
the time.

"How about 1t now, Pat?" said the

Sure, doctor, an they are thot,"

EARTH OLD BABYLON
lAvAToRs FOUND TRACES OF
KINGS PALACE.
lions Of the Magnificent Abode
Nebuchadnezzar All That Re-
acknowledgements In City Of
. Assur.

A writer in the Scientific American
describes the Babylonian excavations,
which German psychologists are con-
Quoting. OF all the interesting discov-
cries that have been made, Nebuchad.
nezzar's palace may be considered the
most important.
Little except the foundations of the
palace remain, and they are of square
burned bricks each of which bears on
its lower face the name and title of
the great king. The several hundred
chambers of the palace are small;
some of them are scarcely larger than
a. modern bed. One chamber, much
larger than the rest, had at one side
low platform of bricks. That Is sup
posed to have been the throne room !;
upon the platform the throne of the
king probably stood.
There was sacred street In Baby.
lon that led from the palace to the
temple Along it the images of the
gods were carried in procession in
time of festival. The palace gateway
that led to the street, known as the
Ishtar gate, is most imposing, and
gives the spectator good idea Of
how Babylon must have looked In its
glory. Whatever its original height
may have been, it still stands forty
feet above the street.
Its six square towers of burned
brick measure twelve feet each way,
and on all their sides, one above an.
other. there are beautiful bas-reliefs
of bulls, lions, dragons, and animals
Of fantastic shapes. The reliefs are
OF brick. glazed hlne and yellow end
white, and the coloring is as fresh as
1t ever was. Each brick of the relief
was glazed separately, and SO accur-
ately that when 1t was placed In the
wall 1t formed part of the perfect
picture.
Within the city of Assur were dis
covered the earliest Assyrian palaces
and temples, the home of the mayor,
an intricate system of waterworks and
drainage, business street lined with
shops and paved with blocks of mar
BILE, the thickly-crowded residential
section of the poorer people, the great
vaulted tombs of the mobiles, with
massive doors of stone, which still
swing on their stone pivots, innumer-
able weapons, and ornaments of gold
and stone.
