These remains are contained In a white marble coffin, with a glass front, thus exposing to view the well preserved remains with in. The eoltln •stands in a niche or more properly a vault, entrance to which is had through a massive iron harred iloor. To view these remains one must fall into the good graces of an attendant in the cathedral, who for one sol (llfty eentsi opens the iron doors, llghls a candle and by this light flic remains are examined. It was my ambition to obtain a pho tograph of these remains, perhaps of greater historic Interest Ilian all else In South America. Piznrro was at once the founder of Lima (if not of South America), conqueror of the ancient and highly civilized Incas, and may lie re garded as one of the most brutal of all warriors. It required some very strong Influence to procure the desired per mission, and it was only after an ap peal to my good friend Emanuel Kl guerra, (wire Secretary to (lie lVru viau Legation In Washington, that the necessary permission was Dually granted. Owing lo the poor light in the vault I was obliged to give the plate two and '' * ’ ' THE UEMAIXS OF FIIAMISGO I’IZAURO. one half hours' oxp'.surt'. with tin* r- Bifit herowith shown.

Pizarro was killed iti*ihe palace at Lima June 30, I.VII, and his remains were previously hurled in a subterra nean vault of the old cathedral. TO MEASURE THE SERMON. Hour-Gljsm*<* Still Knuml in Some <>ltl 1C null till Very few hour glasses now linger in country ehurehes, for they ceased to be tn anything like general use after the Pe’storarion, says the Golden Penny tail Euglish jnibiieation). One of the best preserved “glasses'* is still to be seen iu the Church of St. Mary, at Beckley, Oxon, where it controlled the length of pulpit discourses for many a decade. By the aid of tile hour glass the mem bers of a congregation could satisfy themselves as to whether their worthy pastor was giving them either long or short measure in the way of sermons, and. iu truth, it was deemed little less than a scandal if the preacher ceased his homily before the last grain of sand had dropped Into the nether globe. The story runs that ou one occasion, when rumor reached the preacher's cars that his flock considered his sermons sean dvlously abridged, the worTiy dicius reversed the glass no fewer than four garth’s “.Sleeping Congregation,” on the left-hand side of the preacher. Strange, too, was the custom asso ciated with long sermons, its object being to rouse the congregation from | times, the congregation meanwhile marking the expiration of each allotted time by hopefully reaching for their lmts. It may be noticed that one of tlmse monitory horologes figures in Ho ifw Bar Auujn.NT amira* mbabuuii, profound (dumber, A long wand, with an end shaped like a hay fork, was car ried round the church liy a beadle, j whose duty it was to Jog the sleeping ; member in the nape of the neck, and effectually break the spell.

Tying one's horse to a hole In the ground is a strange proceeding, and to the uninitiated swims Impossible, hut in the great California deserts, with their vast sand wastes and alkaline beds, wlicr • neither trees lior shrubs have courage lo grow, and where sticks and even stones refuse to exist, the demand for some efficacious method of bitching animals has been imperative. The white man, with oil his ingen uity, lias always found the question of anchoring bis horse on the desert to he an enigma. 1 ear and necessity compel the desert traveler to keep in motion, for the situ Is relentless and treacherous, as is the vulture that hovers above with an anxious gleam of expectation in i(s eyes. Over miles and miles of burning, pathless sands lie may lie doomed to wander while the sun pursues with heated vigilance. His horse Is ids only companion, tin- only living thing be sides himself in the great heartless plain, and in- clings to it for safety as a captain clings to ids ship.

An animal requires a proportion of water equal in that of man. and be comes crazed If his thirst is not quenched. In such cases lie is liable to plunge and eareen wildly away over the sands like a ship In a gale, drag ging Ids human am*or to destruction and death. Much has been the experience of the white man. but the desert Indians, who have never been neeivdlted witli superabundant wits, have for many years employed a method that is clover, unique and effective that of fastening their animals to holes in the ground. During a recent trip to the desert a photographer caught an Indian in the very act, and for tlso lirs! time a photo was taken that illustrates the scheme. Kneeling on the hot sand, the Indian began to dig with ins hands, which were as hard and tough and imper vious to pain as a dog's paws. He worked euergctii allj until he had made a hole about two feet deep. He then tied an Immense knot to the end of the halter rope, lowered ii into the bottom of the hole. Slic'd the hole witli sand, and then jumped and stamped upon it iill the earth over tile knot was about as solid as the rock of Gibraltar. Chicago lleeord llerald. Trim-line Four Years to Ituy Snuir.

Nervous IVtsenac* That Are Due to Strati of City Life. To point to the hurry and stress of modern town life as the cause of half the ills to which the flesh to-day is heir has become almost a commonplace m aetiologicai diagnosis. The old-fash ioned complaints, says the London Lanc-et, might almost excite a medical man's pity, so much do they seem to be crowded out by these active, wide spread young ‘ fellows, neuritis, neu rasthenia and a whole young family of nervous illness, tue offspring of the strained existence of to-day. A chain is as strong as its weakest link, and to-day it appears that the nervous system is the weakest link of the organism. Tile weakness is not natural. I: is acquired because the strain upon this link is so often and al most constant and out of proportion to liie wearing power of the material. Whether as generations advance Indi vidual nervous systems will more eas ily bear the labors asked from them or not. at any rate, it may fairly lie assumed that in tile early days of any new style of life the generations born under au old regime have the worst of it. We may imagine future generations permit- ly calm among a hundred tele phones and sleeping sweetly though airships whizz among counties.- dec trie wires over their heads and a per petual night traffic of motor cars hurtle past their bedroom windows. As yet, it niu-t be sorrowfully confessed, our nervous systems are no so callous. Some of us still start at tile telephone ring, and lint! tlie irregularities of the instrument a source of irritation and worry. I'.ortunatcly, the very causes of nerve exhaustion, so far as improved rapid ity of locomotion may be counted one of them, provide one important coun ter-acting feature of town life at tbe present day. We are alluding to the facility with which those whose week days are spent in city toil may spend the seventh in breathing the fresh air and beholding the innocent joys of tlio rustic. Without trains, electric tramways and motor cars, a win lesom.' change of scenery and surroundings .would be scarcely possible in the limited time available. We do not wish to underrate for a moment the value of parks and open spaces—the “city's lungs." For many these afford the only possibility of a Sunday in at any rate comparatively fresh air. Those large numbers, though, who habitually find the Sab bath's rest in a day's wholesome exer cise at some little distance from their v.ork-a-day centre may spare a mo ment from the usual condemnatory at titude toward the bustle, rush and clatter of up-to-date locomotion to bioss the means which enable them so profitably to enjoy the day. WORDS OF WISD®. L is a mistake to suppose that tilt highest good in life is to earn an ex ceptional salary or to accumulate great wealth.—Success.
