AFTER SLEEP OF CENTURIES
EccIesiastic May Be Said to Have Re-
turned to Earth for a Few
Brief Moments.

There was a little gathering in the
green graveyard Of an old priory
church. There was the rector and an
old %antiquary In rusty black, a few
~neighboring SquireS, the county police
sergeant, the sexton and n laborer or
two, while an ancient stone coffin, re-
Gently unearthed, lay on the ground.
"Who do YOU suppose il is, profes.
sor?" inquired the rector.
The old man in black polished his
glasses and adjusted them carefully.
1T must be Thomas D~eBOehm's," he
said. Thomas who was prior here in
the time of Henry III, about 1920. But

A hush fell on the group as the men
set 10 work with hammer and chiSel.
"All ready" the sexton reported
presently. They took off their hats n
the policeman removed his helmet. The
ponderous lid was slowly pushed aside
and they were gazing at the calm
strong face of an eccleSiastic in rich
silk vestments, wrapped in his fOo
years sleep.

professor, with the air of n recoS-

PEARLS FAMOUS IN HISTORY

What unbelievable romance there Is
In the lives Of certain pearls, passion
ately admired, desired, awaited, stolen,
sold as beautiful slaves, then returned
again to their glory in the oriental
luxury Of a diadem or on the neck Of
an empress! Reflect upon those which
were enshrouded thousands of years
ago in the jade caSket of some Chi
nese emperor, and which, suddenly ex.
humed, find new life in rejecting the
sky! Others, in Greece, have adorned
the statues of Venus in the temples
or, at Rome, after the conquest Of the
East, have received imperial hOnOrs.
The patrician women, NJ. Rosenthal re-
minds US, decked themselves with
pearls during their slumbers to possess
them I'm their dreams, and they sus-
pended them by threes from their ears
that the tinkling of the pendants
might remind them OF their beauty
which they could not see.

villa, mother Of Brutus. There were,
I'm our history. the pearls of Isabel de
Baviere, of Mary Stuart, the gift Of
Catherine de Medici, and those OF
Henry III. Pearls were present at
dramatic moments, concerning which
they tell us with more impressive ex-
actnesS than the historians of the
time and you can imagine all that the
gems which adorn the portraits Of the
Florentine Renaissance must know OF
the tragic intimacies of that sensuovs

FROWN ON roo MUCH LOVE
Family Authorities In Japan DiscoUr
age Anything Like a Surplus Of
Conjusal Affection.

The general rule OF life is that the
woman stays when her husband loves
her, but there is one little country in
the world where the women not in
frequently are sent home by their in
laws because their husbands love them
too much.
That country Is Japan, we are told
by Amos S.. and Susanna Hershey In
their book on modern japan. This
paragraph, one of many interesting
ones on the Island kingdom, describes
the particular condition which some
times sends the little Jap wife back
TO her wv people:
I'm considering the japanese family
one must bear in mind the complete
absence Of romantic love in marriage
and the absence of romantic gallantry
In the feudal code Of the Samurai. If
love develops during welded life IL
must not appear in open demOnstra-
ton, and whenever the demands OF
duty are pressing affection must be
r%enOunced for the higher duty. Indeed,
II has not been an m occur.
enc for a wife to be sem home be-
cause her husband was too fond Of
her, as too much affection for a wife
was considered a sign Of weakness
and decentralization in the husband,
which might lead to neglect of other
family obligations. OF loyalty and chiv-
airy there was plenty in BushidO or
the Way Of the WarriOr-but it was
always between lord and vassal, mas
ter and servant, and ever included
women, at least not during the last
ten centuries"
