THE ANCIENT SPARTANS.
Thsy Floggd Msn Who Grow Too Fat
For Military Service.
Among tho ancient Spartans every
thing was considered secondary to mil
Hory efficiency, and with a view to so
curing thin tho boys and men were by
law kept In a continual state of "train
ing.' No deformed child was allowed
to live. Iloya wore taken roui tlieli
homes ami subjected to military regn
latlous at the age of seven. They were
coinH!lled to wear tho same single gar
ment winter and summer. At twenty
they Joined tho ranks and from Unit
ago till tbey reached sixty were re
quired to Ulue at the public tables
where only a certain quantity was sup
plied for each man. Tho magistrate
Interfered lu absurdly small matters
They regulated the degree of fatness to
which It was lawful for any citizen to
extend his body.
Those who dared to grow too fat oi
too soft for military service and exer
else wero sometimes soundly flogged
Aellan In his. history relates that
Nauclls. son of Polytus, was brought
before the cpbors (magistrates) and. the
whole assembly of Sparta, and "his un
lawful fatness" was publicly exposed,
aud be was threatened with perpetual
banishment if he did not bring but
body within the regular Spartan com
pass and give up the culpable mode
of living, which was declared to be
more worthy of an Ionian than a
Spartan. f
Clock and Watch Freaks.
"A watch Isu't exactly dirty when It
requires clennlug," says a watchmaker.
"It may need cleaning when It hasn't
even been worn.
"A common cause of this la that the
oil In tho works has dried up and be
come sticky, causing the watch to go
slow or even to stop. In this case It
not only wants cleaning, but also the
addition of fresh oil.
"Tho best oil for this purpose is ob
tained from the Jawbone of a porpoise
or kindred fish. Many watchmakers
mix their own oil from various kinds.
"Clocks also stop for no apparent
reason. During a thunderstorm, for
Instauce, a clock may stop, only resum
ing work when minutes, days or even
weeks have passed.
."Thunderstorma, again, have been re
sponsible for tlio restarting of old
clocks which have apparently retired
altogether from active service." Lon
don Answers. '
Brides and Wet Waather.
A Breton bride rather likes to have a
wet wedding. It Is held to signify that
all her tears are now abed and that
she will therefore have a happy mar
ried life. I know of no similar belief
In the British islns.
The Erza of Simbirsk call the day
before the wedding the weeping day,
and the bride and her girl friends weep
all they enn, with the Idea, It would
seem, of getting the mourning of life
over so that only Joy may remain.
The Badagas of tho Nellgherrles at
tain the same end by sousing the bride
with water. Some Greek tribes have
a similar belief In the virtue of a
drenching bringing good fortune.
The Omnipresent Rosa.
Every continent on the globe, with
the exception of Australia, produces
wild roses. There enn be little doubt
that the rose is one of the oldest flow-
era in the world, perhaps grown from
the wind blown seeds In paradise. In
Egypt It Is depicted on nunibcra of
early bas-reliefs, dating from 3000 to
3500 B. C. Rosevrater, or the essence of
roses, is mentioned by Homer in the
"Iliad," and the flower is Rpoken of in
the Troverbs of Solomon.
Truthful Cholly.
"Cholly, have you ever loved be
fore?" . . '
"My dear girl, I will be honest with
you. I have been encaged so 'many
times that my ex-fluueees have per
fected an organization and adopted a
yell." St. Paul Pioneer Press.
Must Havo Been a Prise.
"But how could you tell, darling,
that I had never proposed to any other
gtrl?"
"Because you were not married,"
she murmured rapturously and admir
ingly. Judge. '
TO ENTER "SOCIETY."
You must Have Treasure, Tsmpsra-
msnt and Tact. ... -To
enter paradise yon had to be
good and you bad to be dead. To
enter society yon do not have to be
either. On the contrary, though what
you do have to be la harder to tell
than it is to. get there. But certain
requisites may be mentioned. These
aro treasure, temperament and tact
Treasure, which la the basis of all
scrumptlousness, apeak for Itself.
Temperament if more complex. Tom
perament Is the art of holding your
own on the subject of nothing at all
with experts who have devoted tUelr
lives to the subject That la clearly
abnormal. Tact, while less unnatural.
Is more abstruse. Tact la the ability
to put your vibration Into harmony
with those of others about yoa. . As
pirants may be rich, rigbteou and
ready, yet If they lack that ability,
whatever their efforts, they are no
where. If they possess it, then, though
they be nobodies, they have only to
choose wbcro tbey want to go and get
there generally speaking, that Is, and
provided tbey are not la a hurry.
Taste Is very mercantile, besides being
