"Three years ago I was married and went to house- Keeping, l was not feeling well and could hardly drag myself along.

NEARLY FIFTY KINDS KNOWN TO ITS INHABITANTS. Several Varieties, Made With Salt Way ter, Were Considered Medicinal, and Not Intoxicating Murrhina Given Those to Be tortured. . k' V,-, 4 Nearly 60 kinds of wine were known to the ancient Romans,' including sev eral varieties used for medicinal pur poses. Falernlan was a home wine, resembling the modern Maderla, and was not commonly used until It was ten, years old. After it was twenty years old it affected the drinker un favorably, causing headache. Other wines were foreign. China, also also called Arlusian, of which there ' were three" varieties austere, sweet and intermediate and the Les bian, .considered to be the diuretic, were of this kind. Some" wines were named after their color "na whitn dark, and red. The white were thoughf to be the thinnest and least heating; the dark colored and sweet the most nourishing; the red the most heat ing. ' :; Certain wines named Myndlan, Hali carnassian, Rhodian'and Coan, were made with salt water. They were con sidered not to ' be intoxicating, but to promote digestion. Two wines, Cnidian and Adrian, were also medi cinal. Mustum was a term applied to wine, newly made, or the fresh Juice of the grape. Protop'um Was the juice which runs from the gnyes, without pressing. Mulsum was admixture' of wine and honey. " Sapa was mustum boiled down to a.third. Defrutum was mustum reduced: to half and Carenum was the same reduced to a third. Passum was a sweet wine, prepared from grapes that had been dried in the sun. Passum creticum, also a sweet, wine, is believed to have been the same as the wine which our fore fathers called Malmsey, the wine In which the duke of Clarence, brother of Edward TV., elected to be drowned. A wine called Murrhina has a curi ous history. , The Greeks, had, a wine of this kind which consisted of pure wine perfumed' with odorous sub stances. o The Romans had a wine similarly named, which is supposed to have been wine mingled with myrrh. It was administered to those who were about to suffer torture in order to Intoxicate them, and to remove the sense of suffering. These ancient wines retained their place probably to the end of the Mid dle Ages, but there is no reliable evi dence bearing upon this point Very slowly the names, rather than the wines, changed generally. The an cient wines, even those in use in Shakespeare's time, seem to have been less charged with alcohol than the wines of the present day. Even Malm sey, the strongest of them, contained only about 12 per cent, of spirit, and Sack a little more ' than half thaf amount. The Ideal Grocer. Aviation and Insurance Aviation risks have been accepted by certain German life and accident insurance' 'companies, but the results have not been encouraging. The con ditlons attending such insurance have, consequently, been made more re strictive. The rates for aeronauts who use craft slighter than air have recently been increased, while in the case of craft heavier than '.. air insurance against death seems to have been de clined altogether. 'A Swiss insurance company doing accident business in Germany has re cently abandoned policies for airmen an air craft altogether, for even after raising Its original rates business was found to be unprofitable. One company which had early ventured into avia tion, assurance against death recently paid a claim of nearly $12,000 in ad dition to a policy covering the aero plane, which was destroyed. Paul Jones a Strategist. ' Probably most of those persons who read the account of the. dedication of the Paul Jones statue at Washington think of that daring seaflghter as a man of strenuous action, a sort of sea knight. Paul Jones was, indeed, all of that, and he was a great deal more, concedes the Boston Transcript. He was a thinker, who thought deeply on naval strategy and naval organization, and. so far as our service is concerned "his designation as the "father of the American navy" is correct. Save to ward the close of his life, and then,, un der most unfavorable conditions, he never had a chance to put his ideas of strategy Into action. The Russian navy, with which he served, in the war againstthe Turks, was a poor schopl and one unwilling to (earn from a great instructor. MANDARIN AND HIS BUTTON ; f Ha Must Be Studious and, Able "to Earn Insignia of the Higher Grades. It will be interesting to note what effect the Chinese revolutionary move ment will have upon' the status of the mandarian, who , with his gorgeous dress, the glittering button signifying' his mnk and bis combined powers of authority has always been an extra ordinary figure tr .the ' western eye. Heretofore, however, the mandarins' life has not been all ease and glitter, nor has their power been unlimited. It has1 always been the custom to promote 'them from .the ranks of the people after the passing of severe ex aminations. A man may win the rank of mandarin of the ninth, or lowest rank, continuing the while at his trade, " say" of "' mason" or carpenter. Above that rank' he may become an official, but Is allowed only the salary that he may , earn at his trade. ' As a matter of fact the mandarins generally enrich themselves from the fees . which they exact from .suitors, but In accordance with the doctrine of the Emperor Kang-hi, the mandarins are supposed to make the bringing Of law-suits as uninviting as . possible. Kang-hi said: .' "It is well that "all men should have a. wholesome fear of the tribunals. I desire that all having recourse to the magistrates 'mfty be treated merciless ly; so that all may dread to appear be fore them'. Let all good citizens settle their disputes like brothers, submit ting to the arbitration of the elders and mayors of the commune. Let all obstinate suitors be crushed by the Judges, for such is their desert." . When the student has won the sil ver button, the mark of .the ninth grade of' mandarins,': he may perse vere and' make himself by hard study and ability, a : mandarin; 'of the first plaBS. ' As he passed up the scale his Insignia are' as follows: Ninth and eighth classes of mandarin, a button of silver; seventh class, a gold but ton;, sixth, class, a bone button;, fifth class, a crystal button;, fourth class, a dark blue button; third cIrss, a light blue button; second class, a light coral button; first class, a dark coral button This button is about the size of a pigeon's egg and is worn on the top Of the hat on ceremonial occasions.

A pair of large, travel-worn -bro-gans, with feet inside, reposed on a chair which stood in the open en trance to one of the senate galleries during the drowsy afternoon hours of Senator Smdot's three-day speech on the metal tariff a fortnight or so ago. it was a perfect study in still life and visible from, certain nrecincts of the senate floor.
