Oh, do you know your countless charms.

IN THE AM PHITHEATER.
IA Contest Before King Herod and Pon-
tius Pilatus In Jerusalem.
On one of those days he went to the
amphitheater, the circus which Herod
the Great had built. at some distance
from the city. He paid for a seat in one
of the upper galleries. 01] the tiers of
seats below him were all sorts of people,
and far away, on the opposite side of the
vast arena, the sandy level in the mid-
dle, he saw, in the lower tier, a canopied
place that was furnished magnificently.
In it there were throne seats, and on
them sat King Herod Antipas, Pontins
Pilatus, the Roman governor, two Ro-
man generals, with other distinguished
men, and a number of richly dressed
.women, some of whom were brilliant
tiaras or coronets upon their heads. He
stared at them for a few minutes and at
- the tremendous throng of’ people, but
after that he thought only of what was
going on in the arena.
There were chariot races, and Cyril
could not help being intensely excited by
the mad rush of the contending teams,
‘ while all the thousands who looked on
shouted and raved. After the races.
however, came scenes some of which
made him shudder. There were foot races
and boxing matches, but these were soon
over, and then there were contests be-
tween pairs of swordsmen, spearmen,
clubmen, and the like, in which the
fight went on until one ”of the combat—
ants was slain. Close. upon the last of
these duels, bands of gladiators marched
in from opposite sides of the arena and
charged each other like detachments of
soldiers upon a real battlefield.
The fighting was furious and desper-
ate, but one side was scan beaten, for
the parties had not born equal. One
party had been trained warriors, pro-
fessional gladiators, and the other only
common men, captives taken in a recent
raid of Pilatus’ soldiers upon a wild
tribe beyond the Dead sea. They were
brave enough, but they were put there
only to be killed for the amusement of
the great men and of the multitude. So
were the poor victims with whom the
day’s exhibition closed, for they were
driven into the arena, half armed, to
contend as best they could with a num-
ber of hungry lions, tigers, leopards and
hyenas, which were loosed upon them
from their dens under the tiers of seats.
—-W. O. Stoddard in St. Nicholas.
Old English Music.
Long before the stream of Norman
minstrel art sacred music was exercis-
ing a beneficial influence. The early
British church possessed sacred music,
but this was gradually driven out before
the onward march of that new church
music which Augustine brought with
him from Rome (A. D. 597). The Gre-
gorian music (evolved by Pope Gregory
out of the Greek tetrachords and some
existing Ambrosian chants) was heard
and loved wherever Augustine and his
monks built a church. By its means a
deep impression was left upon the minds
of those who heard and joined in it, but
it is curious that we miss altogether the
ecclesiastical flavor in the earliest ex—
amples that have come down to us of
English music during the first quarter
of the thirteenth century.
The free and uncontroled secular mu-
sic was the first to reflect itself in per-
manent manuscript form. Church music
per se was not progressive; the church
tones for the “service” and “mass” mu—
sic were fixed, and only a heretical of-
fense was the outcome of tampering
therewith, but no such restrictions ham-
pered secular music. —- Blackwood’s
Magazine.
Dinner Wines.
In serving wines with a course dinner
sherry should be served with soup. With
the fish chablis or sauterne is nearly al-
ways served, ”and with entrees have
claret. Champagne, hock or moselle
comes with the roast. Port wine is us-
ually served with the cheese course and
burgundy with the dessert. Serve red
wines at the same temperature as the
room. White wines should be slightly
chilled, but never put ice into wine.
Do not fill a glass to the top. Serve the
least celebrated wines atthe commence-
ment of a dinner, reserving for the last
the choicest vintages. —New York Sun.
Women Overseers .of the Poor.
Why it is desirable that women be
elected on the board of overseers of the
poor in the towns of Massachusetts needs
no argument. That is the kind of work
in which good women are naturally in-
terested and active, and their special fit-
ness for such service does not admit of
challenge. It will be for the public good
in any community to put at least one
competent woman on all such boards.
—Spriugfield (Mass) Republican.
What might be done if men were
wise! What glorious deeds, my suffer-‘
ing brother, would they unite in love
and right, and cease their scorn of one
another. —Charles Mackay.

I Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applieations, as they cannot
reach the deseased portion of the ear,
There is only one way to cure Derfness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Bus“
tachian Tube. When this tube get infl-
amed you have a rumbling sound or im-
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result, and .unless
the inflammation can be"‘taken out. and
fins tube restored to its normal condi-
tion, hearing Wlll be destroved forever;
nine cases out cf ten are caused by ca-
tarrh which is nothing but an inflamed
condition of‘the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

" MODERN CANDLES.
THEY ARE GREAT IMPROVEMENTS

into use as a means for lighting recep-
ti0n rooms where gas is considered too
hot and electric lights too glaring, com-
parisons are being made with the can-
dles of today and those of the long ago.
He is not a very old man who still re-
members the malodorous "tallow dip,”
six to the pound, that he bought at the
grocery or perhaps may have helped to
make in a domestic way on Saturdays
when at home from school.
It is but a few years since candle
molds were a very important and neces-
sary part of every household, and yet so
completely are they now banished to
the limbo of forgotten and useless
things that there must be thousands of
young people to whom a pair of snuffers
and a candle mold would prove. un-
doubted curiosities. They were not very
pleasant to the nostrils, those old fash-
ioned tallow candles, their illuminating
power was not good, and their need of
constant snufling was indispensable, and
though the fingers were the handiest of
snuffers one was very apt to get badly
smudged in the course of an evening.
Yet the world stumbled along with
no better light than that for 18 cen-
turies and accomplished considerable
things on the way. Great scholars were
made by saved up candle ends, great
volumes Written and the world enlight-
ened, even if the writers and teachers
groped a great deal.
The great performances of Garrick
and Siddons were given behind foot-
lights of tallow candles, and the candle
snuffer was one of the most important of
supers in the theater of the olden time.
“Without a candle snufi'er, ” says Gold-
smith of a play he had'seen, “the piece
would lose half its embellishments. ”
In those days “early to bed and early
to rise” was a. maxim that had much
more significance, for it was necessary
to get more out of daylight than in this
era of gas and electricity. Candles have
always occupied an important place in
public worship. In the old times Christ—
mas was called the Feast of Lights, be-
cause many cafidles were used at the
feast, while the custom of setting a can-
dle at the head of a. dead person after
being “laid out” is still a practice.
But if people think that candles are
not much used nowadays they are mis-
taken. There are still several candle
manufactories in New York. A very
large export business is done here, chief~
1y to the West Indies and Central Amer-
ica. In theUnited States sales are prin-
cipally in the western states. The min-
ing region takes large quantities, for no
light but candles _ is used in gold and
silver mining.
Candles are also used for church pur-
poses, at country hotels, and to some ex-
tent in families. Many.;of the people of
the east side. newly come to the coun-
try, use candles in preference to oil, be-
ing accustom‘éd to candles and afraid of
the oil. Although it is not a great while
before they are won over to the use of
oil, there are always thousands of others
who, for the first few months of their
being here, shun oil as they would a
deadly poison.’
No branch of industry has undergone
the change that candle making has in
the last 30 years. Formerly it was mere-
ly a mechanical operation. Anybody
could make candles and almost every-
body did.
Now it is a scientific industry, bring-
ing to its aid the resources of chemistry.
Formerly a candle was a greasy, noisome
thing that one usually handled with dis-
gust; now it is artistic and refined and
can be handled without the least ofi‘ense.
bustion is complete, and snufiers have
long been banished. An ancient candle
maker could only work with materials
already provided by nature, so that he
had to use fats, with all their impuri-
ties. ,
The modern candle maker by chem-
ical process removes impurities, which
leaves him nothing but the hard and
white fat for his candles. Fat changed
by this process is called stearine, and
from this material are made the star and
stearic wax candles. These are extreme-
ly hard and are sometimes called ada-
mantine, do not grease the hands and
give a soft and pleasing light. Sperma-
ceti and wax candles are also made.
The candle has ever remained the unit
of .light. Sometimes you hear of a light,
say gas, being of 25 candle power. The
standard is a spermaceti candle burning
at the rate" of 120 grains of sperm per
hour. There are candles, too, which are
made 'of paraffin, but no candles are
used so extensively as the star or stea-
rine.
The great improvement in the manu-
facture of candles dates from the inves-
tigations of the French chemist, M.
Chevreul. He discovered that the fat
.of tallow was separable from the oil,
and the result of the process was two
valuable products—stearine and glycer-
in. Those who have used the candles of
the past can scarcelyrealize that can-
dles can new be shipped to warm cli-
mates.
would as soonhave thought of exporting
skates or snowshoes to Havana as a car-
go of tallow candles. They would have
all melted into an. indistinguishable
mass going acress the gulf of Mexico.
But such candles as are made now can
be used in the hottest climate in the
world. . ,5
Candles, however,_ aro'not a cheap
light. A box of them will cost ”as much
as a barrel ofyofl, and yet the barrel of
oil» contains "early 30 times the illumi-
nating p0 rof the box of candles. The
only gm? advantage of the candle is its
safety” ,
