When Egypt, Greece and Rome were at the height of their ancient power their citizens made bathing a social function, a municipal duty and a re ligious observance. The public baths of these nations were luagiiillcent ar chitecturally and Important as centers of hygienic and municipal sentiment. With the decadence of these coun tries the world seems to have reverted to a period of mental sloth and physi cal uncleanlinpss. As an authority on tho matter puts It: "For 1,000 years there was not a uinn or wonnin in Europe tlmt ever took a bath, if the historian of these times, Mlchelet, is to be believed. The undent love of the bath seemed to have disappeared from olf tho land. "There was no Greece or Rome to hold up the ensign of cleanliness to the mitlous of Europe. Small wonder that the people of the continent became physical decadents, as , Indeed they were in spite of tradition to the con trary. "It Is not strange that there came the awful epidemics that cut off one fourtli of the population of Europe the spotted plague, tbe black death, the sweating sickness and the terrible mental epidemics that followed in their train the dancing mania, the mewing miuila and the biting mania. "The bath was banished and filth was almost deltled. indeed, It was then thought that the sanctithntlon of the body was only accomplished when that body was Indescribably dirty." THE MOUSE IN THE CREAM". Doing a Story of a Pound of Butter, Which Points a Moral. Some years ago when Thomas I.. Calvert, chief inspector of the Ohio dairy and food department, was run ning a general store In a country town, a woman came into the store with a small quantity of butter which she wanted to sell. "We made this for our owu use, but we found that a mouse bail run through I bo cream, so wo decided to sell it," she said. "You know, It will make no difference just so the person, who eats the butter does not know that Hie mouse was In the cream," she added. Mr. Calvert bought the butter, pad dled it into a ditrerent shape and put It away in a cool place in the rear of the store. Two days later the woman came bai l: to the store to buy some butter. Mr. Calvert sold her the but ter he bad bought from her. lie lititl bought it for that very reason, Intend ing to teach the woman a lesson. The next time the woman came to tho store she told Mr. Calvert that the butler he bad sold her was of fine quality and she asked where he got It. "It was . what you sold me; you know you said that it would make no difference If no one knew that the mouse ran through the cream." Mr. Calvert said. Columbus Dispatch. The Story of a Famous Hymn. The famous hymn beginning "God moves in a mysterious way," known as "Cowper's Hymn," had its origin as follows: COwper was all his life the victim of melancholia and more than ouwattPtnpted suicide. One day, bent upon destroying himself, lie got Into a cab and ordered the driver to take ului to a certain point on the river where he Intended to drown himself. The -abiii:ui, noticing bis strange ap pearnnee? ami feeling that all might not be right with him, drove him about the city and liually slopped in front of the poet's door. Stepping out and recog nizing the old familiar surroundings and shocked at the thought of bis nar row escape, Cowper exclaimed, "God moves in a mysterious way Ids won ders to perform," and, rushing in. Immediately composed the immortal hymn. The Louvre. The Louvre dates away back to the reign of Dagonert in In VSH it was' a prison and In KHU was made Into a library.
