REALM OF DEATH ON EARTH
Country In the Vicinity Of Mount We
suVius Graphically Portrayed by
Gifted Frenchwoman.

The country at the foot of Vesuvius
is the most fertile and best cultivated
of the kingdom most favored by
heaven in all Europe. The celebrated
Lacryma Christi vine fiourishes beside
land totally devastated by lava, as If
nature here made last effort and re-
solved to perish In her richest array.
As you ascend you turn to gaze on
Naples and on the fair land about it
the sea sparkles in the sun as II
strewn with jewels; but all the splen-
doris of creation are eXtinguished by
degrees. as you enter the region of
ashes and smoke, that announce your
approach to the volcano.
The iron waves of other years have
traced large black burrows in the soil.
At a certain height birds are no long
er seen; further OH plants become very
scarce; then even insects find no nour-
ishment. At last all life disappears
you enter the realm of death, and the
slain earth's dust slips beneath your
unassured feet.-Madame De Stael.

Armenia First Christian Nation.

The Armenians are an Aryan race
and probably emigrated from Europe
into Asia Minor centuries before the
Christian era. Their language be-
longs to the Indo-European group of
languages. Their king was converted
to Christianity as early as 301 A. D.,
and Armenia then became the first
Christian nation OF the world. The
Armenian civilization has been estab-
lished for centuries. The position OF
the country on the highway between
Asia and Europe has subjected il to
inv aston and subjugation at various
periods by the Assyrians, Modes,
Greeks, Romans, PerSians and Turks.
From the Fourteenth century to the
late war, the greatest part of Armenia
was under Turkish rule. Their en-
nifty to the Turks rises from their
struggles as n nation to be free, which
have frequently been accompanied by
massacres of Armenians. Americas
interest arises from sympathy with an
oppressed race that has for so long
upheld Christian civilization in the
Near East.

Bayoneted Insects.

There is in Cuba a curious grass,
Cenehrus echinatus, which bristles
with tiny sharp-pointed spikelets upon
which multitudes Of insects are i'm
paled. by night as well as by day.
The wings of the victims are pierced
and entangled by the barbed spikes,
30 that most of them are unable to
get away, and thus perish miserably.
Even large, luminous swapping
beetle, which is so strong and active
that II can with difficulty be held in
the hand, falls a victim to these vege-
table bayonets. II has been observed,
however, that two species of insects,
a large bug, Oebalus. and an earwig.
readily free themselves from the
spikes. Minute insects are not caught.
The grass does not appear to derive
any nourishment from its prey. 1t Is
found elsewhere I'm the West Indies
and I'm southern Florida.

On these. appropriate sacrifices we're

of fire all about. Some half-burned
human bones in well-preserved oak
charcoal were found near the top, in
dicating that some poor captive had
been burned at the stake to minister
to the souls of the dead on their jour
ney to the happy hunting grounds. In
the top strata were found two skel-
etons, both Of them strongly fixed,
with the knees drawn up to the chin.
They were evidently of considerable
age, but of later origin than the

bones in this group of mounds showed
extreme signs of decomposition. II
was necessary to paint" them all with
a transfusing fluid the minute they
were exposed to the air. These two
skeletons were perhaps the remains
of people who had died during the
construction of the mounds and were
given burial in the top of them.
