THE LAMP'S EVOLUTION. ESC A YA TIOXS OF AMI EX T CI T. IBS SHOW IT OYER SIX TDOVSAXD YEARS OLD. OrlglnaMy was a Conch Shell and a Twist of Cotton-Western Ingen ultjr Devised the Brass Burner and ReffiMator. Hy EDOAR JAMES BANKS, Hi. I The Oriental lamp Is tin same now n It nlwnj-s tins boon 11 simple dish of olny, stono, bronze or class, tilled with oil: Its wick Is n rac or a twist of cotton, one end of wliich is immersed in oil nnd the other rests over the edtre of the dish to lo lighted. This was the lamp not only of ancient Hahylonia nnd fc.eypt. but also of the Hebrews. (Ireeks, Komaus, and all other early peoples. Kven to this day it is the com nion lamp of MesoHtamia. In Saint Sophia, the prent niosipie of t'onst.tnti nople. there Is no other method of il lumination. The first nrtifiolal UirM with which primitive man brightened tlie dark ness of nipht was the catnp tire, (he name tire with which he lk-litlv roasted his moat and warmed his naked body. At just what ae tin Idea of lighting by other means tirst fx-cum-el to him is no longer known, but the excavations at the Babylonian mound. Bistnya, the ruin of the oldest known city lu the world, have shown that It was in the very lone a tin. per haps thousands of years before 4,"00 B. C. Iurinjr the excavations far beneath n temple which was constructed at that remote date, anion; the ruins of earlier aces, ihere was found a lrro conch shell alKim inches in length. Its exterior had been worn siiuhi1i by constant handling, and a section at Its opening nnd half o. its elongated valve had been cut away so that it formed a deep dish terminating in a long snout. In its interior were slight traces of a thin, black deposit. At first the use for which this dish was Intended was puzzling: it was weeks later when it suddenly occurred to me that this sea-shell was the primitive lamp, the ancestor of the great family of lamps. Some lime later, while ecaatmg at a higher level in the temple refuse heap, where the price's of 4 r- . threw the broken and discarded Utensils of the temp' service there appeared among the dozens of ba-kets full of polished and tilt stone several triangular objects which resembled the conch shell in shape, one of ala baster was entire: others were frag mentary, yet their original forms could le restored. They were the lamps which came into vogue after the conch had passed away, or when it became so scarce that it was no longer em ployed, and stoue was substituted in its place. Although the conch w as dis carded, its triangular form remained, even to the natural shout for the sup port of the wick, which was repro duced iu the stone. To the early Babylonian, the pure, almost transparent alabaster lamp wus perfect in shape; the next step m the evolution was iu its decoration. In stead of the plain exterior, it was engraved with reticulated or curved lines: but a more important step in its decoration wus when the lamp maker conceived the idea of supjntrtiug the wick iu a hole al the sharp corner. One such example from the l!:sui) :i temple refuse heap terminated iu a j the civilized West, who would no longer rest the wick upon the edge of the receptacle for the oil, to pass it through the brass arrangement which he culled the burner. ..l to pro Ide it w ith n screw in order that it might lH raised or lowered, and the essentials of the modern oil lamp were as sembled. Vhile we have the sen -shell, the lamp of primitive man of over ti.tHHi years ago, it would be interesting to know- what kind of oil was imnied. The olive tree produces the ilhiiniii.it Ing oil of the inodei Orient, and al though in other parts of the world the fat of animals was used, the unchanging customs of the lia--i lead us to infer thai olive oil was also then employed. The wick was doubtless a twist of the cotton which grows wild along the shores of 1 Tigris and the Euphrates. Engineering -News. FAMOUS VIRGINIA HOME.

A further boast of the owner of this restaurant is that Its doors have never been locked since first opened, way back in "wartime." and that no one knows where the key now is. An Idea of the number of people fed may be pained from the fact that table salt, used exclusively by the patrons at the tables aud not including any used for cooking, is purchased every four months in ten barrel lots, each barrel containing three tumlretl pounds. .Stars, '7! -s PC' I I' I " v ', I 1 .f Al " - - -JT W Wit lJii't 4Lrl !- u aV 1 -Ll to . ... - ? , V T si . y : -Tt I y v i . , r Em ' " After threatening to call members by name if they did not obey, the Kind of agriculturists, shouting and yclnng for the live, seeds "loot" M'beliil dow n, aud 11 r.

After the discovery of tho hole for the wick, it was an eusy step to cover the entire lamp, with tho except ion of an opening In the center to receive the oil.

The .-nout for its wick is a deep groove extend, ng out about -inches, and with its -upport from be neath it resemble- the handle of a mod cnidi-h.

Some are triangular, the shape miggested by the conch; one is a min iature boat; others of a later period ii re Identical in shape and size with those of Home and (Ireoeo. The lamp of these nations was undoubtedly bor rowed from the older civilization of Babylonia.
