Stiegler as master of ceremonies, besides nineteen acolytes
were present in the   sanctuary.

made   of   the    excellent   music

SUSPENSION   BRIDGES.
They   Were   Common   In   Peru   In   the
Days of the Incas.
Suspension bridges, some of them of
considerable length, were common In
Peru in the days of the Incus. They
were formed of cables of twisted o
passed over wooden supports und
stretched from bank to bank, then
served and all departed, each j hound together with smaller Recovered with bamboo. The road from
Cuzeo to Qtiitto Is still noted for Hail
bridges of this sort, which are in constant use aud span deep ohasms.
The Chinese also, according to
E-ireher, have for centuries been familiar with the "suspension" theory and
have constructed chain bridges in which
the weight of the roadway is support
ed by tbe tension of the chains.
The first irou suspension bridge in
Europe was built over ihe Tees, near
Middleton, in 1741, for tlie use of min
ers. Two chains were Btretched in a
straight line, steadied by ties from the
banks below, aud tbe roadway foi- loot
ugers was supported by tbe
chains.
The modern suspension system practically dates from 1S1G. when bri
both over 100 feet in length, were
cossfully completed at Galashiels and
Peebles. — London Standard.

Barefooted Children.
People who visit Mrs. R. for the first
time usually look surprised, and some
have  been   known  to  make  hysterical
exclamations if while they are under
the hospitable roof they get a glimpse
of the children, a  boy of five and n
girl about two years younger.   To the
friends of the family they are known
;:s the "little barefoots," for they have
never worn shoes or stockings except I
■dun they are in the street.   When the
boy  was learning to walk, the mother j
explains often, he showed a tendency j
to  "too  in."  and   by   the  advice  of a ;
physician the baby shoes were easl off.
The    remedy    was    so    effective    that
shoes  are   now   used   for  street   wear I
only.    "The children  take them  off." j
said the mother, "when they come in
the  house,  as   we do our  gloves,  and :
we all think they are better for doing
so."—New York Tribune.

His principal iueotue was derived from
a snuffbox. And this was the way of
it: The snuffbox was given to the author of "La I'rison d'Edinbourgh" by
Baron .lames de Rothschild as a token
of esteem. Carafa sold it twenty-four
hours later for To uapoleons to the
.same jeweler from whom it had
bought. This became known to Rothschild, who gave it again to the musician on the following year. The next
day it returned to the jeweler. This
