FOUNDATION OF ROME.

Today is the anniversary of the Foundation of Rome. The Eternal City was founded in T53 B. C., in the third year of the 9th Olympiad, 431 years after the destruction of Troy, and 116 years after the building of Carthage by the unfortunate Dido. Romulus, who with his brother Re- mus, were suck1ed by a wolf, runs the legend, was in his 17th year when he received the royal title. His subects consisted of 5000 foot, and 300 horse. And yet, ancient Rome was as a mud-spot to Ancient Egyptian civiliza- tion at that period. The Dynasties of the land of the Pharaohs were in their senility when, in 753, Rome arose, 700 years before Rome was founded Egypt was in the glory o1 ! her zenith, under Rameses, the Great
 at Thebes. Art, Religion, Science Decoration, Literature, were flourish ing when the baby Romulus crawle6 out from under the woh's dugs. We call today the era of Steam and 1 Mechanism, great

THE TRAGIC MUSE
the Du1wich Gallery, London, is

In the Dulwich Gallery, London, is Sir Joshua Reynolds great picture Of Mrs. Siddons, the celebrated actress, as the Tragic Muse" Mrs. Siddons was one of the greatest tragedians that ever walked the stage. It has been stated, with probable correct ness that Mrs. Siddons herself as- sumed the superb pose in which we see her in the celebrated picture She was 29 years of age when the pie ture was painted. She is seated in a Greek chair that is a throne, with steps.
 Her right arm hangs over the side of the chair; her left, is lifted, as she listens with upturned face, to In spiration. The sober grandeur of the coloring is harmonious as a solemn symphony-the Titanic c minor (5th symphony) of Beethoven.
 Reynolds signed his name on the edge of her garment, with the , court1y remark, q could not lose the honor that opportunity afforded ot going down to posterity on the h rr of your robe"

One thousand business men in Bir- ninghan, Ala, have signed a, pledge to wear overalls until the price of clothing comes down. A movem ent is on foot in that city to organize a yingham club among women. The overa1ls movement is reported in other places also.
 Many people will laugh at such a movement as preposterous, and pro- ceed to buy the most expensive stuff, even if it leaves them without dol lar Yet there is no essential reason " men and women should not wear
