TELLS OF BABYLON
LIFE IN OLD LAND DESCRIBED BY
MAN OF SCIENCE.
Prof. Dclltzsch Has Delved Deeply In-
to Matter and Graphically Por-
trays the Habits and Cus-
toms of Ancient Empire.
Prof. Fricdrlch Dclltzsch whom tho
knlsor In nn nccess of Just enthusi-
asm onco described ns "knowing
moro nbout Biblical culturo than tho
Hlbllcnl chroniclers themselves" has
Just delivered a remnrknblo lecture
on Old Babylon beforo tho Gorman
Orient society. Tho records of Baby-
lon said tho professor are of espe-
cial Intorost now for tho destruction
of tho city seems to havo been nn ex-
act parallel with tho overwhelming
of Messina. Tho godess Istar mother
of nil mankind was much enraged
nfter Bnbylon'a destruction to find
that Hel tho god of tha earth had
been granted so much power nnd tho
result wns thnt for n thousand yonrs
there was not another Earthquake.
Old Babylon in thoso days was
smaller In extent thnn northern Italy.
It wns a flat rainless land lutorsoct-
cd by hundreds of canals; nnd tho Ti-
gris nnd Euphrates which then Issued
Into tho Ben wero united by a big ca-
iml. Thousanda of rowing nnd sail-
ing bonts nnd of wicker canoes
crowded tho waterways. Everywhere
wns nctlvo Hfo nnd a gcnulno cul-
ture. Tho whole country wns crowd-
ed with smnn vlllnges built chiefly of
reeds but bricks nnd Btono were used
for Importnnt edifices. From 7G cents
to ?3 annually was tho rent of the av-
erage houso. Every girl found n hus-
bnnd. Severe winter frosts nnd ter-
rific summer hent mado life dlsngroo-
able nnd tho country wns overrun
with lions nnd swarmed with myriads
of flies whllo parts wero periodically
swept by sandstorms.
Tho original civilized race of youth
and central Babylonia was the Sumo-
rlan n tremendously gifted people
whoso women for beauty rivaled tho
statues of nnclent Greece. In north
Babylonia le people were Semites.
Tho later civilization was the result
of n union of tho two. Afterward fol-
lowed tho Chaldeans whoso king Ne-
buchadnezzar lived 1000 years beforo
Christ It was tho original Sumerlans
who Invented cuneiform writing. They
were great mathematicians and had
a sexagesimal system of counting
with separata signs for 1 nnd 10 but
no zero. Prof. Delltzsch said he had
himself found their clay tablets with
multiplication and division tables nnd
their methods of calculating cubes
nndqundrntes. Tho Sumerlans went
clean shaved whereas the Semites nl-
wnyB vforf long beards and long hnlr.
In the third millennium beforo
Christ the Babylonians were using
gold and silver ns a medium of ex-
change. This was nn inevitable de-
velopment ns trade and industry were
nlrendy highly developed nnd busi-
ness wns even carried on by com-
panies nnd corporations. Ono of tho
oldest institutions of old Babylon was
tho banking firm of Egbl & Sons.
Dealing In stocks on margins must
hnvo been a profitless business ns
tho Bnbylonlnn rnto of Interest for
loans wns usunlly 20 per cent.
The Babylonians had no standing
army but they had a. strong militia.
Their Ideas on sorcery and witch-
craft aro largely responsible for tho
superstitions on theso subjects ot
western countries. It Is possible said
tho professor that Christianity Is al-
so Indebted to their heathon temples
for tho towers nnd steeples of Its
churches.
Vocal Training for Babies.
Babies like to imitate. They try to
copy everything older peoplo do. In
tits first playthings aro pretty colored
birds for lnstaAce and when mother
holds up n bird she sings a tone al-
ways singing the same tono to tho
same colored bird calling it do ro or
mi ns tho case may be It will bo
but a short tlnio boforo baby will try
to Imltato tho pitch quality of tono
and syllnblo; nnd beforo tho ordinary
child Is a year old or soon after It
could hnvo tho scnlo woll fixed with
volco oar nnd oyo.
A baby breathes naturally deep.
'en8y nnd right.
And It ho lenrns to sing softly eas-
ily and sweetly boforo becoming solf-
consclous tho worst part of a vocal
teacher's work would bo dono boforo
tho baby was old enough to inslBt
upon doing things wrong namoly
"breathing and volco placing."

country la given ns $28.26 In tho re-
cently published report of tho commis-
sioner ot education. In 1870 It wns
only $16.66.
Nevada has tho highest yearly ex-
penditure 172.15 a pupil followed by
York with $51.60. Montana with
$19.40 and California with $49.29. In
tho south tho expenditures a pupil
rango from $0.37 for South Carolina

stnto of Oklahoma spends $16.79 Now
Moxlco $1940 while Arizona with
$40.41 spends $5.1G a pupil a year
moro than Oklahoma and New Mexi-
co combined.
Ono-thlrd of tho states spend from
$25 to $40 n pupil. "Tho fact that one-
fourth spend less than $15 and one-
fourth spend moro than $35 1b nn Indi-

Homova tho brusn from tho enrpot
Bwoorwr dip In wnrm water shako
lightly mid return. There will bp no
dust and tho sweeper will collect bits
of dust that tho dry brush wouldn't
hold. This is a splendid way of clean-
ing a rug In n Blck room. Dip tho
brush when it dries out and tho rugs
will ba bright and clean.
To Mend Pans. When n dish has
becoiuo useless because of holes try
putting a llttlo putty on tho bottom
smoothing it out and pressing it into
tho holo. It Is surprising how long n
mended place will last. The dish may
be oven put on a hot stove.
When canning pcachet save the
Juice prepared from the skins and
pits and uso It with crab apple Juice
for Jelly It not only gives a va-
riety of Jelly but ono lias tho satis-
faction of knowing that nothing has
been wasted.
Carrots aro said to give color to the
complexion nnd gloss to the hair If
eaten every day. Ono uncooked one
Is n sufficient "dose." Thero nre mnny
wholesome nnd nttractlvo ways of
serving tho vegetable. They aro very
good boiled cut In strips with lemon
Juice and melted butter added or
boiled In dice nnd served in white
sauce.
An exceedingly pretty as well as ap-
petizing soup may bo mado of car-
rots as follows:
Carrot Soup.
Cut the carrots In thin slices and
cook until tender with a sllco of on-
ion and a few slices of green pepper.
Put tho carrot through a sieve add a
binding made of ono tablespoonful of
butter and two of flour well blended
nnd cooked together then ndd one
pint of milk nnd cook until smooth.
Add tho carrot pulp season with salt
pepper and nutmeg. A llttlo cream Is
n great addition. Tho onion and pop-
per slices aro removed before sifting.

Fruit and Nut Sandwich.
For a sandwich that Is nice for
nearly every occasion and ono uni-
versally liked prepare as follows:
Put through tho meat chopper a qunr-
ter of a pound of blanched nJmonds
half a pound of washed figs a half
pound ot dates and a pound of pecan
nuts. Put thorn through tho chopper
mixing them as they aro ground. Pack
tho mlxturo Into a baking powder can
pressing it down firmly and stand
aside over night. When wanted dip
tho tin in hot water loosen It with
n knifo nnd shake out the mlxturo.
With n sharp knlfo cut into very thin
slices nnd put between rounds of but-
tered brend. Servo with chocolnto.
Cnndlod cherries citron raisins or
othor candled fruits mny be substi-
tuted for the dntes nnd figs. Brazilian
nnd filberts may bo used instend of n
part of tho pecans.
If kept cold this confection will bo
good for weeks. It Is very nice served
cut In cubes and makes n pleasing
variety for tho homo mndo candy
box.
Household Hints.
Olive oil Is n valuable addition to
tho medicine chest. A tcaspoonful ta-
ken after a moal will relievo dyspop-
eln. Mixed with equal parts ot lime
water It is Invaluable for burns.
It is good to uso to massage n dry
scalp and for rubbing over tho body
after a bath.
Never eat when very tired; ono
should always rest beforo eating. A
glass of hot water or diluted fruit
julco will relievo the faint feeling of
exhaustion.
When tho body Is in n stato ot fa-
tigue the wholo digestive apparatus
Is Incapable ot doing efficient work.
Oyster Cromaskles.
These nre sometimes called "plga-in-blankets"
but tho other term being
shorter nnd perhaps moro dignified Is
becoming moro popular: Scald the
oysters In their own liquor over a
quick Are. When plump wrap each
ono in a slice of thin bacon and fast-
en with a small wooden toothpick.
Cook In tho blazer heated very hot
Serve on thin rounds ot toast. These
cromesktes are easily cooked on a
broiler resting In a dripping pan In
a hot oven.

bo n lino flesh producer If It Is taken
In a systematic way beginning with
ono quart n day drinking a pint be-
fore breakfast nnd one on going to

forms hnrd Indigestible clot In tho-
Btomnch If swallowed as ono does wa-
ter. A tablespoonful of Hmo water
may bo added If milk causes distress.
After a week Increnso the quantity to
threo pints n day taking ono pint at
noon; then take n pint at each men.
and one at bed time. When the quan-
tity Is Increased to threo qunrts n day
nbout as much ns the system enn usoj
unless other food Is given up. A dnlly
bath with n vigorous rubbing Is nec-
essary when taking largo quantities
of milk) as tho pores of tho body
carry off n largo part of tho waste
matters and they should bo kept open.
Stewed fruit should bo eaten to help-
removo tho remainder of tho wasto
through tho alimentary canal.
After a month's treatment tho galn

For thoso suffering with Insomnia
a glass of warm milk on retiring in-
very soothing to the nerves.

Orange and Vichy.
A delicious drink can be made from
tho Juice of two oranges or n lemon

ter wnlnuts pecans or blanched al-
monds sliced very thin. Put the cor-
responding pieces together.
Household Hints.
The flavor of stewed tomatoes (espe-
cially If tho canned in tin variety is
used) aro 'much Improved by a sllco
of onion cooked with the tomatoes. It
removes the tinny taste without no-
ticeably flavoring with onion.
Cranberries stewed In a double boil-
er with a small piece of applo cut In-
to cube will remove tho crudeness of
tho flavor and tho color is much bet-
ter cooked in thla way.
If the saucepan in which oatmeal Is
cooked is act on the tablo for five min-
utes before tho contents are turned
out no hnrd residue will be loft stick-
ing to tho dish to bo scraped off
A broom should always be hung or
