U, CITY HAS LONG BEEN DEAD o 0 Tlahuanace, lnaBollvla, Collection ef fyiins ef Which Even the fricaa ntw Nothlrfjj. 0 o One of the numerous cities claiming the title "oldest city in the world," Tlahunnaco, nsr Lake Tltlcaca In Bolivia. A thousand years ago, say the scientists. TIahuanaco was as dead as It is today, and that Is practically all that anybody knows of IPs history. Even the Incns, who hold a record for antiquity In. South America, admitted to their first' Spanish visitors that they knew nothing about TIahuanaco, ex cept that It was very prolu.tife thnt the stone linngea scattered over the ruins were the people of the city turned Into stone by some angry god. There would be nearly as much ot the old city visible today as there was In the time of the Incas, hud nor the stones been so attractive to the In dians of nearby villages. As It Is, beautifully carved Idols. hare gone to decorate the door fronts of humble cot tnges. and polished stones to prop up chimneys and pave Moors. The little modern village of TIahuanaco, near, the ruins, Is full of stolen souvenirs. Whole houses and churches are built of them. After several centuries of this plun der the government of Bolivia put a bun on removing stones from the ruins, but there was then little left of old Tiahuanaco. A few Btone gods as huge and angular as any deities of Egypt, the sites of a fortress, a palace and many tombs, all vaguely murked by worn carved stones are scattered over a great desolute plain. Yet from these battered relics with their cryptic carvings the nrcheologlsts hope some day to reconstruct the story of a mys terious people. SURELY HAD GREAT FAITH Or Else It Was First Time This Man Had Ever Gone After For. gotten Umbrella. Oh, ye of little faith, listen, for I would a tale unfold. A man came fly ing down the street the ether day. He looked like Atlas with the world on his shoulders. He seemed bent on go ing somewhere and getting there quickly. A friend met him and said : "Why this hnstet There must have been a still alarm, as 1 didn't hear any whistle. Where goest thou?" The Marathon pedestrian said : "Yes, I am In a little hurry. I was down street shopping a couple ot days ago nnd went Into a department store, and when I got home I found I hud left my umbrella. I know Just where I left It, on the south side of the store, standing up against the counter. I tliought I would run down and get It before another shower came up." Just think of It Why, If I had thnt man's fulth I could not only turn a mole bill Into a mountain and sell tl.a gravel to the government to make concrete ships, but I could move the mnuntnln with a broom handle. After parting with thut old mln shed dor he had blind faith that he would feast his eyes on It again. Forty-eight hours of golden moments hnd flitted by, nnd he hnd the Idea that all he bud to do was to stand In front of the store and whistle, and that umbrella would come to meet him, bringing a flock of little umbrellas with It. I don't wonder the gold-brick factories nre running overtime. Why that Innocent mortal must have at this writing enoiiKh nice, shiny bricks on hnud to top out a chimney. Kennebec Journal The Lucky Horseshoe. It was about the middle of the sev enteenth century that the superstitious use of horseshoes as emblems of good luck originated In England. They were at first deemed a protection against witches and evil spirits, and were nailed on doors of houses, with the curve uppermost. . It was the belief thut no. witch or evil spirit coulrj eh. tor a house thus' guarded. ; The, cus tom of nailing horseshoes to Ships nnd other sailing craft Is still In vogue In all English speaking countries. To Hnd a horseshoe with tin odd number of nails attuched to It is considered the forerunner of good luck, and the more nails the greater the good fortune Unit 1b likely to nttend the finder. A per son about to be married who finds a horseshoe believes that a happy mat rimonial career awaits him. Joy In Conquest. Life's master-key does for Its pos sessor what Is Impassible to those who do not have It No future Is toe for bidding for men of the right mental fiber to fear. Weaklings falter and turn back. Men of talent turned to right channels delight In meeting what has brought failure to the many. It offers to them a chance to try the real ly hard things. They alone test the skill and prove the mettle. Such men bring wealth out of defeat,' and re joice In tha strugle.. Tt's no won der they step forward aud try what has- hrnacbt failure to others. It's the mental sense of conquest that -crowns effort with succ.ua and makes rnsn king In the world. It's J our right. Exchange.
