SCHOOLBO0KS OF LONG AGO
Of Past Ages Studied Much as
Do Those of Today.

Professor Langdon of Oxford, Eng,
has discovered that one group of the
famous Nippur tablets stored at the
University of Pennsylvania are in re-
ality the Oldest schoolbooks known to
exist. They show, says the Christian
Herald, that the children of the an
clients learned much that the boys and
girls of today have to study.
According to these tablets the chill
dren Of 4,200 years ago were taught
arithmetic, geography, history and
grammar just like the children of to-
day.
The multiplication tables are re-
markably distinct, and in plain num-
erals show the incontrovertible fact
that three times one are three and five
times one are five.
On one tablet the school boy has
been given a lesson in phonetic signs
corresponding to the shorthand Of mod
ern times. The Sumerians, the au-
thors Of these tablets, also invented
the use of writing syllables and COM
bining them into words, being the first
step toward the alphabet.

One Strange Result Of War.

Strange, unknown flowers are
springing up intshell holes and dug
outs over the SCARED surface of No
Mans land, and many are the coniec-
lures concerning the strange phenom-
enon.
Botanists who have studied the
strange plants have come to the CON
clusion that they have sprung from
seeds buried in the earth for many
decades. A well-known London botan-
ist in recent discussion said:
at is known that seeds have been
buried for upwards of 60 years with
out losing their power of termination.
Seeds of corn and wheat buried with
Egyptian mummies thousands of years
ago have been planted out in the Goth
century and have germinated in the
ordinary way. 1t is quite possible
that strange Towering plants-that is,
strange to the local inhabtants-are
now Towering in the French battle
fields. The heavy shell fire which has
torn up the earth may have created
conditions for their growth after lying
dormant so long"

Of King Edwards.
1t helped matters not at all that at
the very first avenue crossing some
one on the curb yelled: ''Pipe Sammy
Edwards all done up in pinkies! Gee,
Sammy, but it brings out the legs
great !"-an extremely embarrassing
remark, since Sammy from boyhood
had been painfully conscious of his
slightly bowed neither limbs.
Well, what with the animals acting
like the deuce and the kidding he got
from old acquaintances along the line,
and what with-mGst of all-keeping
on the lookout for Kitty the eyes that
should have been attending very strict
ly indeed to the leOpards, it happened.
The spotted beasts, always the bane
of menagerie mems existence at best,
were on the verge of getting out of
hand when the cage reached that par
ticular juncture of two important
thoroughfares where Sammy's taxi had
been wont to stand o. nights.
InvOluntarily Sammy let his eyes
divert from his snarling, feverishly
pacing charges, to the old spot. And
there, on the edge of the sidewalk,
stood Hartman, his old taxi days en-
ployer, and-evidently quite by acci-
dent, just beside him-stOOd Kitty!
Kitty was white, as Sammy's glance
fell on her. Kitty was frightened.
For Kitty had been able to sense what
scarcely anybody in the crowd sus-
pected, for she had been investigating
this animal business a deal in the last
six months, had Kitty.
She knew that things were going
wrong in that cage As her eyes and
Sammy's met, she raised her hand in
one imperiouS undeniable gesture, and
through white lips screamed over all
the fanfare of the pageant, 'Duck.
Sammy
Sammy ducked--and the razor-like
claws of Caliph missed him by the
thinness Of n whistle as the snarling
beast hurtled through the air There
was a whirl of tawny, black spotted
bodies and horrifying scrambling
and snarling; an agile flashing of
pink; one, two, three rapid blank
shots in the faces of the frantic cats
and, like Il jack out of his box,
Sammy emerged from the rear door Of
the cage, slamming in the hasp behind
him. In two jumps he reached the
sidewalk.
There was no interlude. "Can l
have my job back?" he demanded of
Hartman.
"You can replied Hartman. In
just five seconds Sammy Edwards had
quit one job and secured another.
Come on, Kitty" he breathlessly
urged, grasping that almost fainting
young woman by the arm; 'I'll borrow
raincoat in Ferguson's and we'll 20
somewhere and have little talk. You
can't kid me after the look that was
on your face just now"
Kitty might, of course. have told
him that she'd have felt just the same
about perfect stranger. Butch,
what was the use? She was too glad
to have him back alive.

A SUMMER COLD

A cold in the summer time, as every
body knows, is the hardest kind OF q
cold to get rid of. The best and quick
est way is to go to bed and stay there
if you can, with bottle of "Boschee's
Syrup" handy to insure a good nights
rest, free from coughing. with easy ex-
pectoration in the morning.
But if you can't stay in bed you must
keep out Of draughts, avoid sudden
changes, eat sparingly of simple food
and take occasional doses of Boschee's
Syrup, which you can buy at any store
where medicine Is sold, safe and eff
cient remedy, made in America for more
than fifty years. Keep it handy.-Adv.
