My thought, when 1 was at the mini of Bilchoater yesterday, were that hundreds of antiquarians all over the country woulk have given gold to any one who should have told thein of the great "find" that waa there, and then to be safely brought to land. A friend and myself strolled over from . Aldermaston to view the ruins and as many of the "finds" aa were still to be seen. Mr. Davis, F. 8. A., at present superintending the opera lions, explained to as bow, when dig ging out an old well, be made the lucky discovery ol a tunnel, which conducted bun to an ancient gate, the existence of which hadsot been before suspected. A windlass bad been lit ted np over a well eighteen feet deep. and men were digging oat pail Tula of earth whioh were beiag diligently hauled np. lor two weeks the work at this , point had been going oo, and within the last week it has been discovered that this was an old Roman tnbwelL The wood seemed somewhat rotten, as might bo ex pected after 1600 years, so that the raising of the tab oaased the greatest anxiety. The tab bad been ingeni ously fitted by Mr. Davis with two wooden shelves running all round it- one at the top and the other at the hot torn, whioh both served to protect it from any strain daring the prepare lion for hoisting.

We say the old way, but really it is a vrv nimmon one at nresent time and manv dvaoeDtics and physicians as well consider the first step to take In at- temntinir to cure indigestion is to diet, either hv selecting certain foods and re jecting others or to greatly diminish the anantitv usually taken, in other words the starvation plan is by many sup- nafd to be the flint essential. The almost certain failureof the starve tion cure for dyspepsia has been proven time and again, but still the moment dyspepsia makes its appearance a course of dieting is at once advised. All this is radically wiong. It is fool ish and unscientific to recommend diet ing or starvation to a man suffering from dyspepsia, because indigestion itself starves every organ and every nerve and everv fibre in the body. What the Dyspeptic wants is abun dant nutrition, which means plenty of rood, wholesome, well-cooked food and something to assist the weak .omach to digest it. This is exactly the purpose for which Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet are adapted and this is the method by which thev cure the worst cases of Dyspepsia, in other words the patient eats plenty of wholesome food and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets digest it for him. In this way the svstem is nourished and the over worked stomach rested, because the tab : lets will disrest the food whether the stomach works or not. One of these tab lets will dieest 3.000 grains of meat or eres. . Your druggist will tell you that Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the purest and safest remedy sold lor stomach troubles and every trial makes one more friend for this excellent preparation.

One of these speoially arranged features whioh the Qaeen City of the Seine is sow evolving is an international dis play of life saving apparatus, whioh will be held in the Bois de Vinoennes. The lake in the Bois de Vincennes is to be speoially cleaned out and deepened in places, for the purpose of conducting the experiments of life saving from the water, either at sea or inland. A number of boats, and even a model ship in distress, are to anchored at i distanoe frem the bank, so as to give facility for using the life saving apparatus employed on the ooast, whether by sailors or volun teer brigades. A number of men se lected from the bigades will represent sassengets who will be rescued from the shore in the esse of a supposed wreck, or in boats in the ease of a ship inpposed to be foundering. It is also sontemplated to give an illustration it the means of raising submerged rowels, including tne operations of livers. What part the other Nations will lake in the exhibition is not yet de termined, but it promises to have the effect st least of awakening a great pnblio interest in the origin and devel opment of the life saving servioes of various countries. The system in the United States as it now exists, though very extensive, Is simply organized, the ten thousand miles of our ooast being divided into twelve distriota, eaoh district having the number of stations its need re quires. There are altogether 224 sta tions, inoludiug one inland station at the Falls of the Ohio, near Louisville. Eaoh station is governed by the keeper, who usually holds his office for years. He is the major-domo of the small community, varying! from seven to twelve men, whom he commands. The head keeper acts aa judge, general and monitor, all questions being referred to him, end what he say, is usually implioitly obeyed. It is the duty of the keeper to drill the men in boat praotioe, signals, resuscitation of those partially drowned and general nauti- oal knowledge at least four times week. The men, exoept the keeper, are in active service ten months in the year. Uunng July and August they are exoused from active duty, although table to be ceiled upon any time when needed. The pay of the men is $60 ' ft month for ten months, or 1800 year. They live together in a nice little cottage provided by the Government, and although having to buy their clothing and most of their food out of their salary they manage to save every year ft nioe sum, being men of plain habits. The Government also furnishes a library of good novels for the use of all at each station, and in some in stances private parties have given do nations xf useful and valuable books, One ot the principal daties of the lifesaver is to patrol the beach daring I tuv uiguc, wuiuit is uiviueu into lonr Watches, tq warn off vessels coming dangerously near snore and to dis cover any in trouDie. jsaon man go ing on his Watch is given brass ohooka, on which are itt&oribed the number of his district, station and himself. Every time he meets the other patrol at tne end ot his beat he exchanges eheoks with him, In this manner an aoourate account can be kept whether is man has traversed his beat and not fallen asleep. If the other patrol does hot appear the waiting one is required to go to the station and report him to the keeper. And woe to that watoh- man who oannot give satisfactory rea sons for his non-appearance. When ft patrol sees a vessel in dan ger or disoovers a wreck, he fires off a rocket, meaning "take care 5 yon are teen." After making sure that the vessel is in trouble he goes to his ela tion and gives the alarm. The horse furnished by TJnole Sam is hitohed to a low wagon loaded with a boat, mor tar gun, ropes, life preservers and the many other things that go to make up well-equipped station, and away all go, the men running alongside the wagon, helping it along in sandy places by pntbing. If the sea is not too rough, the boat ts launohed ; if it is, another means of rescue is used, namely, the mortar gun. This is a brass cannon, whioh fires a round shot to whioh is attached a cord, the other end of whioh oord is fastened to something on the beaoh The object ot the gunner is to plaoe the shot on the far side of the vessel, to that the line will fall on the sinking hip's deck. This is then fastened by those on board to the vessel s mam mast, making communication with shore. A pulley runs on this oord. If the weather is not too rough, the breeches buoy is used, or, if so, the life oar. This latter is a water tight rowboat, holding fifteen persons, the air being admitted through a slatted trap door that serves for entrance. The life car was invented in 1850 by Captain Douglass, the first chief of the service, and has been the means of saving the lives of many hundreds of persons. The present Superintendent of the Life Saving Service is Sumner I. Kimball, whose headquarters are at Washington. The Superintendent's staff are the assistants, each assistant having charge of a district. An Assist ant Superintendent receives the repor.s of the keeper, makes appointments ot the men and tends to the general rou tine connocted with his office. Thel united Dtates servioe compares mora than favorably with those of other Na tions, for to our 224 stations, Qer many, the-most prosperous of Eoro- pean life saving services, has only seventy-four. During d recent year' wrecxs endangered the lives of 282S persons, of which number 2010 were saved. Philadelphia Timos. Gilllotined by His Own Eachlne.

The strange suicide was not aiscoverea ror some days after it was committed. Neighbors began to won aer what bad happened to Deoarcleux.

(Sharing In All Age The confessor of Franois 11. of Franoe, says an article quoted in Our rent literature, refused him absolu tion until he had completely removed his beard. An ancient Oerman waa by tribal custom not Allowed to out off his flowing beard nntil ha had killed his first man in battle. About the year 200 B. O. the Soman Em peror Soipio Afrioanus inaugurated the oustom of shaving among the Boman nobles. Henry I. of England woven beard nntil a courageous preacher leveled his eloquence at him to snob good purpose that he submitted to be) shaved, From the time of Julius Caesar until the advent of William the Conqueror the Britons wore mus taches, bnt the clergy, after the con version of the islanders, were forced to shave by law. One of the early Popes established the shaving of Boman Catholio Driest to diatinoniah them from the patriarchs of Constanti nople. The priests of the Greek Church still wear beards. Peter tha Great of Bussia laid a tax on beards, and delinquents were 'forced to have their faces shaved with a blunt razor or to have the hairs pulled out with pinoers. , So everybody shaved. The first shaving was done by order of Alexander the Great, who foroed the Greek warriors to out off their beards, as he found them awkward impedi ments in the hand-to-hand contests of .that time, A Turfed Bailroad Bed. i Grass will grow on a railway bed if the ties are covered with soil and seed sown. This can be verified by a visit to the Fairmonnt Park trolley line near the Belmont Avenue entrance. This seotion of the track resembles two parallel rails laid through a green meadow, and the presumption is that the railway management intend to make the entire track from end to end like it. If the grass can be kept green in dry as well as wet seasons the presence of the track will hardly mar the landscape at all Even the poles and trolley wire are not as unsightly as the eleotrio light poles and wires whioh have been allowed to disfigure) the park in every direotiocv There is a possibility; of course, that the grass between the tracks may prove a hindrance to the operation of the line even if it is ornamental, but this is hardly probable if the grass is kept well mowed. A railway line with no ties in sight and carpeted with a lux uriant greensward wili be a novelty at lea&t Philadelphia Times. The Latest Idea in Street Organs. A brand new idea was evolved by Philadelphia Italian street piano man about a week ago, says the Inquirer, and he started out to tour the small towns. He secured the oase of a pre ambulating piano without the works. but supplied with the usual crank at taohment Then he hired two good singers to occupy the piano, and sing as he turned the crank. He claimed that it was a phonographio piano from Italy, and played the songs sung by leading Italian operatic singers in their own voices. They sang in a phonograph, the cylinder was plaoed in the piano, and the musie repro duced. The idea was such a good one that he started out on Girard avenue with it after he and the singers had celebrated the event with liberal pota tions. The singers got into a row at the end of the first song and two heads came up through the top of the musi cal instrument, which closed - the career of the phonographio piano, nn til more peaceable singers can be se cured. . . Sand as au Extinguisher. Water will not extinguish burning kerosene oil, but dry sand will, and it is a wise precaution to keep a box of it in some convenient place to be used in an emergency.
