ment, beau!.iful and thrilling de
scription, soul stirring, patriotic
flights of sublime classic oratory
and pathos that holds an audi

ture of Hon. Granville Jones on

out comparison, the greatest I
ever heard. It should be heard
in every Chautauqua and Lyce

Like many other Roman bouses
that have been unearthed In England
one recently brought to light was
heated by a system called "hypo
caust" The entire basement was
one big furnace, from which flues as
cended, built Into the walls. A wood
tire was kept In the basement, the fuel
being fed In from an outside annex,
through an arch In the wall.

Much Like Sarcasm.
The conceited visitor had talked s
long time, and small Janie was duly
Impressed with tha breadth and varie
ty of his knowledge. At last the
talker made the sententious statement
that one-half the world does not know
how the other half lives. "Why don’t
you teach them?” was the Innocent
question that made the visitor blush
and his other listeners struggle wlti
scarcely suppressed chuckles.

Young Man Must Have Friend*.
For boys and young men friendship j
is a prime necessity of existence.
IVhen a man has established himself
In life and the Interests of home and
wife and family have absorbed him,

ship But as long as he is young, un |
married and unsettled, he is as do- I
pendent on friendship as on air or j
iood.
