Important Objects
Found at Pompeii

New excavations at Pompen have
brought to light several important OBJ
jects. A three-legged marble table, the
top Of which Is missing, is one par
ticularly interesting piece. Students
have advanced the theory that this
table was at one time the property Of
Casca, one of the murderers of Julius
Caesar. The three legs are each in the
form OF a lions leg, surmounted by q
lions head and on the top of each head
is square block, on which the actual
table top rested. In fact on the sur
face of each of the three resting blocks
Is carved the word "Casca." This en-.
terprising Casca used to have @ house

that the table was purchased by some
other patrician living at Pompeii and
brought there from Rome. Delightful
frescoes adorning the interior Of the
house have kept their colors so vividlP
that today visitors may admire, for in

developments which have taken
place under our very eyes.
They will tell that a boy
named Lindbergh flew across
the Atlantic Ocean.
And that a man named Ford
announced that he would pay
all workers, even scrubwomen,
a minimum of S. a day.
The idea that high wages
make prosperity, that the key
to good business lies not in the
safe deposit boxes of million
aires, but is carried in the
pocket of every worker-this is
something entirely new.
1t holds the hope of the fu-
ture. Whatever else may have
to be discarded, American bust
ness must not surrender that
American idea!

History has a curious way Of
upsetting contemporary judg-
mentS. Many of the events
which seem important to men
and women while they are liv-
ing prove insignificant in the
eyes of the ages. And some
very little things later loom
large.
Who was King of Spain in
1855? I do not remember. But
I do recall that in 1855 an ap-
pie fell and hit Isaac Newton.
What was Warren Harding?
Who were Calvin Coolidge and
Herbert Hoover? Some future
schoolboy may be puzzled by
those inquiries.
But unless I am very much
mistaken every future history

BIZ DONALD A. CRAIG.

April 10, 1s61-From the hour early
this afternoon when the newspapers
went to press, conveying intelligence
of an attack in Baltimore on tire
MaSsa chusetts troops on their way to
the protection of the Federal city, until
the arrival here this evening of the
train bearing them, Washington City
was greatly excited.
Gradually, as the hour for the ar
rival of the train drew near, a, crowd
formed at the railroad depot, completely
encircling the building. The whistling
Of an engine about S o'clock this eve
ming relieved the feeling of solicitude
that had begun to manifest itself, as it
gave assurance that the railroad track
was not torn up, as had generally been
apprehended
Presently an engine, bearing a signal
flag. rounded the bend at H street and
came up to the depot. The engineer,
in reply to thousands of questions. said
that the train bearing the troops was
coming not far behind him. In about
five minutes the regular passenger
train arrived and was Immediately fol-
lowed by the extra train bringing the
Massachusetts volunteers.
One of the District companies had
marched out to the H street curve, and,
as the train rounded that point gave
three hearty cheers for the men from
the Old Bay State The troop train
stopped Just outside of the depot, and
the soldiers. disembarking, formed in
a column and marched through New
Jersey avenue and thence to the
Capitol, entering the rotunda by the
east portico.
They were followed by great crowd,
now swelled to several thousands, who
cheered the soldiers as they passed
along the street. They were dressed in
full Winter uniform, with knapsacks
strapped to their backs over their gray
overcoats. They presented thorough
ly soidierly appearance.
After hating for a while in the
rotunda of the Capitol, the men were
taken to their quarters in the new Sen
ate chamber and the adjoining rooms.
They stacked their arms and laid aside
their knapsacks, but no man was per-
mitted to take of his overcoat. They
remained in readiness for instant
service.
The men were so nearly exhausted
from want of food and sleep that as
soon as they filed into the Senate gal
leries they sank down on the cushioned
seats and most of them were fast
asleep in a moment.
No arrangement had been made, ap-
parently, for feeding them. Conse-
quently 1t was a late hour tonight when
they finally received food.

Unc' Billy Didn't Know.
Some selfishness may have its use,
Fen though IL seems without excuse.
Mrs. 0uack.

Unc' Billy Postum was certain that
pretty soon he would find the nest OF
Mrs. Quack the Mallard Duck. In fact,
he had no doubt whatever. He had fol-
lowed Mr.. Quack down the Laughing
Brook to the Big River. The water was
shallow in the Big River for some dis
lance along the shore below where the
Laughing Brook entered. In this shall
low water grew wild rice. 1t was al
ready beginning to show The old
stalks of last year formed brown clunps.
1t was a wonderful hiding place for
water-loving birds. A couple of Jerry
MuskratS relatives had built houses
there.
Unc' Billy stood on the shore and
thought to himself that here was Just
the hind Of place Duck would like
for nesting. He had lost sight for the
moment Of Mr.. Quack, for Mr.. Quack
was slipping about among those brown
clumps and 1t was hard to keep track
of him. But presently Unc' Billy saw
him again and he still appeared to have
nothing in particular on his mind. He
was preening his feathers and taking
what do you think he did? Well, he
settled himself for O. nap. Yes, sir,
that is what he did.
Unc' Billy Postum was disguised. He
didn't want Mr.. Quack to go to sleep.
But there was nothing he could do
about it. Perhaps after all it was a
good sign. Perhaps Mrs Quack was
close by. What would be more natural
than for Mr.. Quack to take a nap near
the place where his mate was sitting
on the eggs. So thought Unc' Billy and
felt better for thinking It. Just back
little way on the bank was a tree.
Unc' Billy climbed the tree and crept
out on branch where he could look
down on Mr.. Quack. It was a splendid
place to keep watch. He could look
down among those old clumps of wild
rice in all directions. His eyes cleaned
with eagerness. He felt sure that Mrs.
Quack was hidden down there some
where and he felt equally sure that the
instant she moved he would see her
But time slipped by and nothing hap
pened. Mr.. Quack continued to sleep

FOOD PROBLEMS
BY SALLY MONROE.

There are as many ways of keeping
food fresh as there are foods to be
kept fresh. Here are some ways a
good housekeeper has of keeping diff
ferent things in her larder in good
condition.
Lettuce she has washed as soon as
it comes from market and then placed
in a paper bag, the top is twisted tight
and the bag is placed on the ice. When
it is wanted, it is crisp and cold.
Cookies she keeps always in an old
fashioned stone crock, with the cover
tightly on.
Crackers are kept in big tin box
with tightly fitting cover.
Eggs are kept, of course, on the ice,
and when one has been inavertently
broken it is put in small cup and
covered with cold water.
Fresh meat is taken Immediately
from the paper in which it comes from
the butcher, placed on a plate and
put in the refrigerator.
Parsley and watercress she washes
thoroughly and wraps. wet, in piece
of cheesecloth, in which she places
it on ice.
Orange juice, she reminds us, doesn't
keep at all well, as the sugar in ii
causes deterioration quickly
MayonnaiSe she keeps in glass jar
She keeps it covered ordinarily, but
if the weather is damp and hot she
removes the cover, as it seems more
likely to become moldy If 1t is covered
