a HMY men all over the world are interested In the tremendous progress
recently made In aviation, and all- the nations that maintain large
standing armies are experimenting with dlciglble balloons and aero
" planes. At every aviation meet tue utility of the aeroplane In ivar
fare Is demonstrated by dropping "bombs" at marks designed to represent
forts and battleships. No one knows just how valuable the aeroplane win

future hostilities and that future battles will be largely fought In the air 'i tie

AESCHYLUS.
Curious Fate That Overtook tha Fa
ther of Greek Tragady.
Aeschylus, the celebrated Greek
dramatic writer, Is universally refer
red to ns the "father of Greek trage
dy Born of A noble family at E lea
sts. In Attica. 525 B. O., at the age of
twenty-four be Brut presented himself
at the festival of Bacchus as u com
petitor for the public prize and fifteen
years afterward gulued his Hrst vic
tory. "The pre-eminence which he thns
acquired was successfully maintained
till 408 It. C, when he was defeated
In a similar contest by his younger
rival. Sophocles.
Aeschylus, mortified at the indignity
he thought this put upon him. quitted
Athens and went to the court of Hie
ro. king of Syracuse. Of the remain
ing period of his life but little is
known, except that he continued to
prosecute his favorite pursuit, aud
that his residence in Sicily was of
some duration may be Inferred from
the fact that it was sufliclent to af
fect the purity of his language.
The thirteenth and last victory of
Aeschylus was gained in-4."8 B. C. On
the manner of his death, which was
singular, the ancient writers are unan
imous. While sitting motionless In
the fields his hald head was mistaken
for a stone by an eagle which hap
pened to be flying over him with a
tortoise in her bill. The bird dropped
the tortoise to break the shell, and the
poet was killed by the blow. -
Aeschylus Is said to have been the
author of neventy tragedies, of which
only seven are now extant.
THE PRICKLY PEAR.
This III Naturad Fruit la Ramarkably
Tenacious of Life.
The prickly pear Is said to be so
tenacious of life (hat a leaf or even
a small portion of a leaf, if thrown on
the ground, strikes out roots within
a short time and becomes the parent
of a fast growing plant
Mischievous though the African
prickly pear may be. It Is not without
its good qualities. Its Juicy fruit,
though rather deficient In flavor. Is
delightfully cool and refreshing In the i
dry beat of snmmer. and a kind of
treacle Is made from it
Great caution must be exercised In
peeling this curious fruit, the proper ,
way Lcine tiy impr.le the fruit on a
fork or stick while one cuts It on
and removes tie skin. The individ

disintegrating -in the museum of CIu
ny. After a certain number of years
they fall into dust. The cause, it is
thought, lies in the presence of minute
quantities of saline matter with which
the objects have become impregnated
during their long burial in the soil or
under water. These microscopic im
purities play the part of bacteria and
microbes in living bodies, in other
wnnia the Ipad is "sick" and unless
' the noxious matter can be removed
( will inevitably perish. Curiously
enough, it Is found that if truces of
salt are Imparted to a fresh mass of

seum at Cluny.

i In the very hottest district In the
j world the shores of the Persian gulf
there is no rain whatever, nor rivers,
nor oases. Yet water Is got from the
j bottom of the sea. Six miles off the
shallow coast there Is a long line of
bubbling springs of Ice cold fresh
water. Divers capture It in goatskin
bags and retail it inland ut very mod
erate prices. Even in an annual
drought, which lasts from January to
December, and In a temperature thnt
1 hiirdl.v ever sinks below 1)0 degrees and
, often rises to over 110 the natives have
no worry about their water supply.
