FINE CITY TWICE DESTROYED
Antigua, Spanish Capital Of Central
America, the Victim of Flood, Fire
and Earthquake.

Antigua, the glittering Spanish cap
ltai of all Central America, arose high
ON the central plateau in the beauti-
fui valley of Atmocopgo Its palaces
and churches, its monasteries and hos
pitais, its sparkling fountains and av-
enues were unsurpassed in any part
OF the new world. while above all tow
cred the sweeping outlines of the
great volcanoes known as the aqua"
and "Fuego" ("Water" and "Fire')
which were destined to be her doom.
For twice Antigua was destroyed, the
t1rst time in 1876 by flood of water
from the crater of the volcano which
was then appropriately called Aqua
and the second time in 1878 by fire
and earthquake from Fuego. The
Spaniards not being able to remon-
strate with the recalcitrant volcanoes
In the same effective manner that was
employed in dealing with the Indians,
other means were resertel to, and
these mountains were solemnly hap
tized aqua" and "Fuego," and taken
with due ceremony into the arms of
the church in the hope that they would
eschew their heather deities and re-
form their uncouth ways. Eeverthe-
less. as matter of Terrestrial precau-
ton. the capital city was moved -
miles distant to safer location, where
1t is now situated. Strange to say,
both Aqua and Fuego seem to have
lived up to their new responsibilities,
with but few half-hearted attempts
Mt backsliding, until the recent great
quakes that in 1917-1S again shattered
the fair city of Guatemala. Andrew

MADE THEIR WAY TO FAVOR
Words Banned FIFTY Years Ago Are
Now by General Consent Recog-
nized as Proper.

Most newspapers have an index ex-
the tempting words banned at the
time of its compilation as TO bad
usage, remarks writer in the Home
Sector. 1t is amusing to read one Of
those lists, drawn up for a New York
newspaper so years ago. long dis
carded list, frowning on such words
as aspirant, bogus, collided, com
menced (for begun, employee, endorse
(for approval), humbug, ignore, ieop-
ardize, lengthy, loafer, ovation, post
ell (for inforrned), predicate. progress
ing, reliable (fof trustworthy, row.
dies, taboo, talented and vicinity (for
neighborhooIl Most of these are now
quite respectable and would have the
freedom even of those newspapers
which once spurned them. Thus, as
ever, do the heresies of today become
the gospel of tomorrow. Thus does
progress march.
1t happens in language, IN ecOn0-
mics, In politics. Tomorrow conserva-
tives win be found stoutly defending
the program which yesterdays radicals
drew up. Perhaps an appreciation of
this fact ought to produce a philo-
sophie calm, but it is quite as likely to
produce temper And yet 1t is absurd
to swear at the conservative man as
it is to denounce the dam in the stream
and the brake on the engine.s

While Charles was sick and out of

his room were moved to room across
the hall from the one formerly occu-

went back to his old room. The
teacher in charge noticed the little
fellow standing by her table looking
most fortorn, so she asked him what
he wanted He glanced up at her, then
looked at the roomful Of strange boys
and girls, and said with a pathetic

"sea Cow" New Extinct.

The last arctic "sea COW" was seen
in 1S54-about century after the
first discovery of the species by white
men. When FIJI grown the creature
weighed as much as 5000 pounds.
Ttese animals srequented shadows
at the mouths of rivers in herds, and
while. feeding they drove before them
their young. to protect the latter from
danger. So tame were they that one
could stroke their backs without OBJ
lection on their part.
Unfortunately their flesh was GOOD
to eat, resembling beef. Whalers got
in the way of depending on them for
stores of fresh meat, and so in the
natural course of events they were
wiped out.

Gods of Ancient Rome.

"Going 30 Church In Ancient Rome"
was the title of lecture delivered 10
Philadelphia in Houston hall by DR..
George ID. Hadzsits, who showed a
number of views of temples dedicated
to Jupiter. Minerva, Mercury and other
gods The number of gods became SO
numerous In Rome toward the last.
said the lecturer. that the people had
to refer to a catalogue. There was
one for sowing, one for planting, reap
ing, binding, hoBsecleaning and, in
fact, for every trivial detail of life.
Ritual and ceremony ehoked true de
votion, he said, and the sacrifices
prayed over by the priests were made
with or without the presence Of any
one else. Congregational devotion was
alien to the spirit Of ancient Rome.

Growth Of Plants.

Among plants after the period of
growth in spring and summer there is
a period of dormancy before the cold
weather sets in, and If plants are
maintained artifcially at high tenn
perature this dormant period persists
Exposure TO cold is needed to actlvate
the plant for another period Of growth.
Perhaps the liberation of engines acts
on the stored starches, converting
them into sugars, or the phenomenon
may be due to change In the per
meablity of the cell-membrane
Though normally the stimulus required
for a renewal of growth Is supplied
by cold, mechanical injury or period
of drying may have the same effect
The process occurs independently in
any exposed part Of plant, so that
IL one or two branches OF plant be
kept continually warm while the OTHER
is subjected to the usual winter chill
ing, the former WIN not develop on the
return of summer temperature though
the latter develops as usual.
