CITY NOW BUT A MEMORY.

The British, on their recent advance
in Mesopotamia, passed over or at
least near the ancient city of Ur,
where Abraham was born and grew
up; and thence that he departed with
his family and relations on journey
to Palestine that was destined to be
so productive of important events for
the Hebrews.
We are accustomed to think of the
days of the early Pharaohs as almost
lost in antiquity but Ur was prehis-
toric. Eight thousand or 5000 years
ago that great Chaldean city was a
seaport on the shore (or near it) of
the Persian gulf. 1t traded with In

the world.

II was following an antelope, which
at last came within range of my gun
As | paused to take aim, an immense
lion rushed out of the thicket at my
left, and in moment was upon the
unsuspecting antelope. To disregard
the lion was to leave my caravan and
myself at his mercy during the night
So fired-once again my last shot
The animal fell backwards, rolled
completely over, and recovering him
self, rose slowly to his feet. He
turned in my direction, and, with q
ferocious roar, rushed at me. I car
still see his massive head and chest
his bristling name, his glaring eyes as
he turned from side to side in search
of my hiding place.
What could I do? I had sunk or
my knee as 1 fired at him, and | dared
not rise lest a rustic betray me. But
my good angel did not desert me. II
occurred to me, like fash, that
had crossed little river back of me
in pursuit of the antelope. l cast
myself down, rolled over three times
and fell into the stream, as the lion

LISZT INFLUENCE STILL FELT.

Franz Liszt. who was the greatest
pianist in the history of music. was
the first pianist who ever gave a pure
pianoforte recital, that is, a whole
evenings program in which he was the
sole performer He was then a pio-
neer, and the father of one Of the
most popular of all forms of public
concerts. Before his day there had
been fine piano players of a more
sedate and classical order who aimed
at finish and self-restraint; but with
the coming of the romantic school a
new order of pianists was evolved, of
whom Chopin and Liszt were the
prophets. Piano playing received a
tremendous impulse-the waves of
which are still unspent-in the direc-
ton of technical brilliancy and poetic
ardor. In absolute power over all re-
sources of the instrument Liszt was
without a peer, though in the deli
cately romantic view Chopin came
near him; but he excelled in every
kind of music, and played all styles
with equal mastery. 1t is not sur
prising that his genius and his gift
for teaching have proved lasting in
spiratiOn and torch that has been
handed on to a new generation of

fingered TOO LONG.

Between the idiot and the man of
sense the lunatic and the man of
genius, there are degrees-streaks-o
idiocy and lunacy, writes Henry Wat
terson in the Saturday Evening Post.
How many eXpectant politicians elect
ed to congress have entered Wash
ington all hope, eager to dare and do,
and have come away broken in health,
fame and fortune, happy to get back
home-sometimes unable to get away,
to linger on in obscurity and poverty
TO a squalid and wretched old age.
| have lived long enough to have
known many such: Senators who
have filed the galleries when they
rose to speak: house heroes living
while they could on borrowed money,
then hanging about the hotels beg
ging for money to buy drink.
There was famous statesman and
orator who came to this at last, of
whom the typical and characteristic
story was told that the holder of a
claim against the government, who
dared not approach so great man
with SO much as the intimation of a
brihe, undertook by argument to in
terest him in the merit of the case.
The great man listened and replied:
Il have noticed you scattering your
means around here pretty freely, but
you haven't said turkey to me-
Surprised, but glad and unabashed,
the claimant said, Il was coming to
that produced thousand-dollar
standing what was to be done next
day, when the bill was due on the cal
endar.
The great man took the money, re-
paired to a gambling house, had an eX-
traordinary run of luck, won heavily,
and playing all night, forgetting about
his engagement, went to bed at day
light. not appearing in the house at
all. The bill was called, and there be-
ing nobody to represent it, under the
rule it went over and to the bottom of
the calendar, killing it for that ses-
sion of course.
The day after the claimant met his
recalcitrant attorney on the avenue
face to face and took him to task
for his delinquency.
"Ah, yes," said the great man, 'you
are the little rascal who tried to bribe
me the other day. Here is your dirty
money. Take it and be off with you,
was just seeing how far you would
CO."
The comment made by those who
best knew the great man was that if
instead of winning in the gambling
house he had lost he would have been
up betimes at his place in the house
and doing his utmost to pass the
claimants bill and get another fee.

But when l made her a call just now
| found she had furnished her house
somehow
All trim and tidy, and nice and neat
The prettiest cottage in all the street
Of thistledown silk was her carpet
fine,
A thousand times softer and better
than mine;
Her curtains to shut out the heat anC

Were woven of blossoms pink ant

And the dainty roof of her tiny home
Was a broad green leaf like an emer

SMALLEST REPUBLIC IN THE
WORLD.

The smallest republic in the world,
so far as area is concerned, is St.
Goust, situated in an almost inaccessi-
BILE part of the Basses-Pyrenees. ST..
Goust is hardly square mile in area,
with population of practically $50
persons, who rule themselves.
The president is elected by coun-
Gil of twelve, chosen for five years by
the people, and he is likewise judge,
assessor, and tax collector. This little
republic has been ruled, it is said, for
more than 1000 years through coun-
Gil of elders.
The smallest self-governed state in
the world in regard to population is
Tavolara, an island but little known
off the north cast of Sardinia. 1t is
about five miles long, with an average
width of half a mile, yet it is free
and independent republic of about sew
enty inhabitants, who are their own
rulers.

EVENINGS AT HOME.

Nightfall comes early now, and the
chill winter air makes a good fire
twice grateful. The lamps are lighted
end as we gather around the table a
sense of domestic satisfaction settles
down to which in the summer time
we are almost strangers. So the law
of compensatiOns ever works. We are
deprived of the long days and of most
of the outdoor enjoyment. But We are
awarded those blessings which are in
separable from the family life and
from the shadow of the old roof tree.
Evenings at home! What we owe to
them can never be computed. Their
influence has been powerful far-reach-
ing and benign. They have often en-
tered more into the making of per-
feet manhood than all the days and
years at school and college. They
have furnished rich treasure of blessed.
memories and high purposes. On such
evenings the boys and girls should
have their light employments. The
embroidery needle will help to pass
the hours away. Games and music are
sometimes indispensable. Nor should
we omit to enumerate good books and
Catholic papers. A home well stocked
with good books is infinitely better
than balance at the bank. Books
are the true fields where the spirits
of the dead converse, and into these
| fields mortal may venture unap-
palled. You may walk and talk with
kings and queens of thought on a per-
| feet equality. They do not ask how
much money you possess. what was
the cost of your clothing or what is
the size of the house you dwell in.
They only want you to bring an under
standing heart, seeing eyes and listen
ing ears and they will make you per-
fectly at home.'
But not every book should be well
coined to the charmed circles of fam
| lily life. Parents should exercise a
wise supervision over the literature
their children read on these peaceful
evenings at home.
