The Eoroboedoer, unearthed by Blr Stamford Raffles when the English ruled in Java, was built by the Hin-r1"- in the eighth century and is by the tinea example of their work in the Inland. Standing on a hill In the middle of the valley, this imposing ed ifice, covering nearly ten acres, rises to a height of upward of a hundred feet above the summit of the hilt It consists, says a Java correspond ent of he Shanghai Mercury, of a series of tone terraces built on top of each olutT in diminishing magni tude, so as to lave circumscribing gal leries, and crowned by a vast cupola; entrance to the galleries Is gained by four stairways, north, south, east and west, which run from the around straight up to the big top terrace, in the middle of which stands the crown ing cupola, surrounded by numerous smaller lattice work cupolas, and from which one may step Inside into any of the Intermediate galleries. The whole Is built of stone, showing an immense amount of carving, and though there Is no genuine Inside to the temple many of the galleries are covered in, innumerable images of Buddha occupy niches or promlnnt positions on the walls, and tbe sides of the galleries were paved with bas reliefs. Indicating tbe glorification of this god and other Incidents in bis history. When one considers that there are several miles of bas-reliefs clone the work expended on the pyra mids of Egypt pales into Insignificance before this stupendous undertaking. One Author Who Paid His Tradesmen. Tbe personal characteristics of Croat men so often display meanness, t-d this meanness is so commonly ex ploited, that this paragraph contained in the enlarged edition of the "Life end Letters of Lord Macaulay," by Sir George Otto-Trevelyan, newly is sued by the Messrs. Harper, is worth Eotlng. "Macaulay was at some pains to inculcate upon me," says the writ er, "the duty of never beating a seller down below -a fair price, and never l.ccplng a tradesman waiting for hie money. I recollect bis telling us how he had received his annual bill from a very well knov.n London shop, and had sent a check by return of post Next morning the head of the firm brought the receipt himself, and burst out crying in Macaulay's room. Every morning, the poor man said, two peo ple walked past his office window. one of whom owed him thirteen hun dred and the other fifteen hundred pounds; and the last of the two was among the most distinguished and powerful statesmen in the country. whother aa a customer, an employer. or a tourist, Macaulay never under oald a aervlce rendered."

All the earliest records show the banks thick ly populated by native tribes. About Heat Lightning. All sorts ot popular fallacies spring up. and grow and spread until they become matters ot common belief: Here Is that one about so-called "heat lightning.'' for example, the broad gleams that often appear Just above the western horizon on a warm even ing. Wi see ' flasb after flash, but there Is no accompanying thunder, and the absence ol the latter has giv en rise tc tbe notion that It Is "heat lightning." for If It were ordinary lightning there would be thunder, of course!

The disp!iy referred to always iaice. place wher tbe , weather is warm but that ts only because warm Mc UI.er produce thunder storms.

TII1E IS NO PLACE LIKE IT "Home!" .aald Mrs. Lummy. "Km. at lest!" She opened one ef the long-closed rhutters and made a careful exami nation of the bouse to her right. "The Blumers have a new pair of curtains in their upstairs ball; they have had the floor of their piazza painted and another brick has fallea off their chimney." "Poor devils!" said Mr. Lummy from behind bis coat of tan, "they couldn't go away." Mis. Lummy opened another shut ter and made a careful examination of the bouse to her left. "Hum!" she said. "Well?" said Mr. Lummy, with Impatience. "Somebody baa bought a sew lawnmower!" she exclaimed, with acraplng sarcasm. "Well, well!" said Mr. Lummy bitterly. "And a new garden hose.' "Somebody," said Mr. Lummy more bitter than before, "ta getting quite gay la their old ageN" Mr. Lummy croeed the shutter witb aa emphasis of marked dis pleasure and, sitting dowa with a good comfortable bounce, ah open ed her mouth and yawned to a fright ful extent. "O-o-o-o-o!" sha yawned, making the exclamation a staccato one by clapping her hand oa and off her mouth with every vldae ol enjoy ment, "but It's good to be home!" "Yea," aald Mr. Lummy fretfully, "but you needn't yawn so blessed much ! " "William Lummy!" she cried with spirit, "I'll give you to understand that I shall yawn all I please In my own house. Why, there have been times this summer when I have nearly died because I couldn't yawn wben I felt It. O-o-o-o-o!" she yawned again, closing her eyes and using her right hand, and "O-o-o-o!" she repeated using her left hand. She opened her eyes to see how he was taking It and cried at once: "William Lummy!" "Well?" growled that gentleman. "Here I am." She merely looked at him, all eyes and Indignation. "Well?" he asked again, raising his voice a tew notes. "What la it?" "You know right well what It is!" she cried. "No worse than yosjr yawning I " he cried back. "William Lummy, you take your foot off that chair this Instant! Tills Instant!" "Well, then, you stop yawning!" "I shall yaw all I want to!" "All right; then I shall put my foot oa the chair all I want to." "No, you wont!" "Yea, I shall !" "No, you won't!" "Yea. I shall!" "No, you won't! "Yea, I ahall!" And with an impudent look Mr. Lummy threw hla other foot nnott at ehalr and gazed at hla wife In such a tantalizing way that she area to her feet, her back comb trembling with Indignation and enjoying her self immensely. "William Lummy!" said she, "for the last time! You will either take your feet out of those chairs or else you will take the consequences!" And her eyes flashed ao that the back of William's neck eeasel to ex ert a pressure against his collar and he faintly grumbled: .

New York Sua. Legend ol Magpa ud Robta The peasants ot France, la accord ance with a tradition, ptorc the head of a magpie with a thorn when ever they catch one. According to the Ftench legend, after Jesus bad been nailed to the cross two birds slighted on the extended arms of the Instrument of death. One was a magpie with a beautiful algretbs ton Its bead and a long waving tall, then the handsomest of birds but tbe wickedest, chirping Insult at the suffering Jesus. Tbe other bird wss a modest little bird with gray plu--nage, which approached the crosa timidly, uttering criea of grief. With ts beak it tried to pluck away one of the thorns. A single drop ot the blood fell en tbe pitying little graj bird and gave tbe robin redbreast. The Smallest Tobacco Pipes Made.

What the Ballorman Meant When He Told of an Adventure In Force 10. Doubtless there were many puzzled reatlors when a deep aea skipper rolled Into New York harbor a few flays ago and reported that hla shltf had been belated by a gale which had piped up to "force 10." "Force 10," It was explained, meant something like a hurricane. It Is a term borrowed from the Beaufort scale, a scheme ot wind measurements devised by the British Admiral Beaufort before the days of oceangoing st6nm. Force 1 waa a calm, force 2 a light breeze, and so on up to the hurricane velocity. Perhaps, too, the Beaufort scale may give a clue to those who have been wondering for some time at the title of a popular German picture. It is Just one expanse of frowning cloud and storm tossed billow, and the artist has named It "Wlndstark 10, 11." Wood-Choppers of Australia. The Australian choppers are slender men, and might be taken for anything rather than lumbermen. "Oh. we are fairly strong," said Mr. MacLaren; "but, you know. It does not require strength to chop. It is a knack. A ten-year-old boy, If he cuts clean, will ontchop a grown man. Much dependa, ot course, upon the axe used. We use American tools entirely In fact, nothing but American tools Is used In the Australian bush. Axes for use In competitions are kept In prime condi tion; even the handles are given spe cial treatment of rosla rubbing, or w bone them aa baseball players boa the handle of their bats: In London we ahaved a man on tbe stage with one of our mm nnf steel? Yes; all good tools are of razor steel. Almost anybody can sharpen an axe, but when It comes to a saw, there Is as much nielli rantitrtMl In An a good job as in drawing a picture. For instance.

A stratum of quartz, flint and fragments ot shells, such as the Romans placed on tbe surface of ihe arena where gladiator fought, has been found there.
