Famous French Soma,

"Ca Ira" was the first popular song
TO spring put Of the French RevOlu-
ton. 1t was probably first sung in
1889 by. the insurgents as they
marched to Versailles. The music
was that of a contra dance which was
extremely popular under the name of
Carlton National" 1t was composed
by a drummer in the orchestra Of the
opera house whose name was Becourt.
The air was a great favorite with
Queen Marie Antoinette. The words
we're suggested by Lafayette to Ladre,
a street singer; he remembered them
from hearing Benjamin Franklin say
at various stages Of the American Rev
olution when asked for news: Ca, Ira
ca ira" Cit will go, 1t will go"). There
are five stanzas with different re-
trains, becoming more ferocious as the
revolution progressed.

UNDOUBTEDLY HIS BY RIGHT
Boorish Stranger Surely Proved His
Claim to Possession Of That Match
box Without Argument.

The car or an English railway was
not overcrowded. There was a goodly
number Of persons sitting In 1t, but
evidently there was not room for the
fussy man who entered last.
He stood on every ones toes.
He pushed his luggage in every ones
eyes and placed his heaviest bag on
some ones hat.
He elhOWed himself plenty Of room
on the side Of the compartment
"lnfernal railway - he muttered to
the man next to him.
THANK goodness" replied the
stranger, that you spoke first"
What do you meanw asked the
rude man.
"Well," said the stranger, handing
him a gold matchbox, II must give you
this, sir"
But" exclaimed the other, 1--WE are
complete strangers"
"Yes, sir, l know that, but l am
a member of a society, and we have
subscribed for that matchbox, which
We were going to give to a member
whom we considered the rudest man
on earth-but l think you deserve IT
far more than he doesv"

Bananas Grow Pointing Upward.

A bunch Of bananas, as displayed in
a store is hung just opposite from the
way 1t grows. Bananas grow with
their free ends pointing upward. The
herb on which the fruit grows has an
underground stem which sends up
suckers or sprouts that attain their
full growth in a year and a half or two
years. It's trunk" Is not really a trunk
at all, but a false stalk formed by the
curled bases Of the leaves, which wrap
themselves about the flower stem. This
stalk, almost a foot in diameter at the
bottom, rises to q height Of from ten
to forty feet, it's great leaves, a foot
or two In width and from six to ten
feet in length, dropping outward,
When the plant has reached its full
growth there appears a huge flower
bud, which opens and shows n bunch
Of little purple flowers, each of which
makes way for a tiny banana. The
great flower cluster hangs toward the
earth, but as the separate fruits begin
to grow they turn upward. From 81
to $50 bananas, weighing altogether
from 40 to 100 pounds, may grow in
a bunch.

Why Buried With Head to the West

The usual posture Of the dead Is
with the feet eastward and the head
toward the west-the fitting attitude
Of those who look for their Lord,
"Whose name is the East" and who
will come to judgment in the regions
Of the dawn suddenly. But 1t was
the ancient usage of the church that
the martyr, the bishop, the saint, and
even the priest, should occupy In their
sepulture a position the reverse Of the
secular dead, and lie down with their
feet westward and their heads to the
rising sun. The position Of the crozier
and the cross or ancient sepulchers Of
the clergy record and reveal this fact.
The doctrine suggested by such a
burial was that these mighty men
would be honored with q first resur-
r%ectiCn, and as their Master came on
from the East they were to arise and
follow the Lamb as he went; mas
much as they, with him, would ad-
vance to the judgment Of the general
multitudes, the ancients and the saints
which were worthy to judge and reign.

Pens in History.

When quill pens were in S by all
persons who knew how to write there
was a good deal Of discussion as to
what kind Of quilts made the best
pen. Goose quilts were by long odds
the most numerous, but some persons,
especially those of the fashionable and
more secluded sets, preferred swan
quilts. 1t is said that the only thing
which distinguished them above goose
quilts was that they cost more. Kings
and queens, when they knew how to
write at all, usually preferred to sign
their names with eagle quilts. Queen
Elizabeth always wrote with an eagle
quill pen, so the story goes as told by
those persons who have written Of this
lady.

DENIES AGE IS DESIRABLE
Here Is One Person, at Least, Who
Enjoys Youth and Is 10th
to Part With II.

Seekers for the elixir Of life have
commonly been subjected to public
ridicule. This, however, merely proves
that the majority of people dislike hav-
ing their attention directed 10 their
intirmities. Since Cicero wrote DE
~Senectute" we have repeated down the
ages the piouS untruth that old age is
a prAd and desirable state and
that regrets for a lost youth are mis-
placed. 1t is not so, and in our hearts
we know it. Youth is as much to be
preferred TO age as life TO death, and
If we possessed any means Of pre-
serving our youth we should use those
means. Nor is there any absolute rea-
son why q human life should not be
continued at its full power indefinitely.
We age, apparently, in the same
manner as we pass from childhood TO
adult strength; the process Of devel-
opment is reversed. A great number
of recent experiments suggest that the
reversal may, in suitable instances, be
delayed. 1t is true these are mostly
experiments on animals and, for the
most part, lack confirmation. Yet
few who have had opportunities of
following the trend Of events doubt
that a measure of success has been
achieved. Nor should the fact that a
particular old man or woman who has
undergone some operation or treat
ment and afterward died, be al
lowed to weigh either for or against
any scientific hypothesis. Those who
are engaged on the most adventurous
research which man has ever con
ceived deserve, If we will be honest
with ourselves, our support and en-
enlargement rather than our ridicule.

Remarkable Wills.

Every schoolboy know~ that the
reading of the will of julius Caesar
marks a turning point in the play of
that name. According to a NOLAN
medan tradition there is a will OF
Adam in existence. The tradition as
serts that no fewer than 30 legions OF
angels brought him sheets Of paper
and quill pens, nicely nibbed, all the
way from Paradise, and that the Arch.
angel Gabriel set to ii bis seal as wit
ness" 1t Is estimated by commenta.
tors that 10000 sheets Of paper were
brought down on which Adam could
write his requests. Noah is also said
to have made a will, In which he di'
vided his property, the earth, into
three equal shares, one for each son.
