DEFINITION OF DOG DAYS
May Not &c Strictly Orthodox, But Il
Surely Covers the Ground
Most Thoroughly.

We don't know whether there are
dog days. according to the almanac.
that Is, or not.
Several years have passed since we
had In the house one OF those little
books with disemboweled gentleman
on the front cover, so there is no
means of finding out.
A hot and muggy day is not a dog
day. technically. unless the dog star.
Sirius, the original Skye terrier pre-
suTably, is in evidence, or opposition,
or something. Life is serious enough
without delving into astronomy for
useless information.
Dog star or no dog star. dog days
are days when one does nothing more
worth while all afternoon than write
doggerel and goes home wearier than
he has been in dogs age, to sleep like
a dog and get up in the morning dog
tired.
Dogged around by the necessity to
labor one would, did happy opportun-

Secret Of Book Of Revelation,

The number 666 used in the Bible
rs syEbolizing the beast is a constant
source Of speculation as to what per-
sonage the mystic mineral indicates.
According to Prof. s. E. Slocum Of the
University Of Cincinnati. the key to
the riddle lies in the fact that in the
case of the Greek form of the name
Of Nero. written in Hebrew characters,
the letters of the name have each a
numerical significance according to
the number notation of the Hebrews.
and the sum of the numbers is 666.
The apostle IN excOriating the en-
peror would have .ound it unsafe to
mention him outright. or in some OBJ
vious symbolism, such as In Latin or
Greek numbers, while using Hebrew
characters would be fair cOncealment
to Roman eyes. The other imagery
Of the Book of Revelation works out
strikingly in accordance with the as
sumption that John was writing dis
creetly about the prosecuting Roman
emperor.

Early in the eighteenth century the

France. At Chantilly. about the year
1725, a porcelain was made which imi-
tated the Imari ware Of Japan. Some
Is years later another factory was es-
tablished at Vincennes. and now comes
the beginning of the famous Sevres.
1t was in the year 1853, so historians
interested in this subject tell us, that
the king, Louis XIV. who for the past
five years had been making donations
for the carrying on of the work, al
lowed the adjective "royal" to be add
ed to the name of the work, and grant
ed the use of two interlaced LIS as
a trademark. In order to keep a
record of the porcelain made in diff
ferent years, scheme of lettering
was arranged which, to the initiated.
would tell the tale. For example, an

signified that the piece of porcelain
thus marked was made in that year in
which the king began to take an active
interest in the work. 1853. Three
years later the factory was removed
from vincennes to Seyres. and ii g

in one corner OF the beautiful park
of st. Cloud not far from the Seine.
And, in 1853, the king took ii over

henceforth as such.
Now. 1t happened that the making
Of porcelain appealed to Madame de
Pompadour, and she did everything in
her powec to bring the Sevres prod

standard, to popularize the ware at
court and throughout the country, and
even throughout the whole of Europe.
