"Do you know why we dip a razot in warm water before we begin shaving,..and do you know why some ignorant men say a razor is 'tired?' asked the barber. "Well, this is all due to the fact that a razor is a sa-w. not a knife, and it works like a saw, not like si knife. Examined under the microscope, its edge, that looks so 3mootb' to the naked eye, is seen to have innumerable and fiae saw teeth. When these teeth get clogged with dirt all the honing and strapping in the world will do no good?the razor is dull, and nothing will sharpen it. Then is the time the ignorant say it is 'tired' and stop U3ing it, but the wise know it is only clogged. "The wise, though, don't suffer their razors to get clogged;. They dip them in warm water before they use them and thus the teeth are kept clean. It Is because a razor is a saw that lather is used on the beard. The lather doesn't soften the beard, as so many people think; it stiffens it, so that it will present a firm and resisting surface to the razor."?Philadeli pliia Record. \ Oldest House in the World. Not since humanity began delving into the mysteries of the existence of primitive man has a discovery been made (says Science Sittings) so rich in its suggestivencss of the home life of prehistoric races as that made by the United States revenue cutter Bear on her recent cruise to the Arctic ocean. A bouse T^uilt by human beings at leasi .s.uuu years ago, ana prouaoiy of an antiquity far greater, was discovered by Alaskan natives near Point Barrow, and many of the utensils used by the people who made it a habitation were f.ecured. Some hatchets, stone knive?, and other stone and bone implements belonging to races that flourished before the dawn of history, have frequently been found, but never before has a house in which they lived been found preserved through the wrecks of time and all the elemental catastrophes that have strewn the surface of the earth with ruin and death.

He was a member of an old and illustrious family of Siena. Toward the middle of the thirteenth century the Pecci family already wielded great power in the country. They soon became so powerful that when Pope .Martin V. visited Siena he was very comfortably quartered, together with all hi" court, in the house of the brothers Giovanni and Giacomo Pecci. who i cum nf 11V OOO lunnci icui ujiu 0um. florins. When the future Leo XIII. was born 1t was a dark time for the Papacy, Italy being then under the heel of Napoleon and Pope Pius VII. a prisoner and divested of his temporal power. The clouds lifted, however, in 1814. when, as one result of Napoleon's overthrow, Pope Pius returned to his sovereignty. He at once vestored the Society of Jesus, which bad been suppressed by Clement XIV., and to the Jesuits the Count and Countess PeccI intrusted the education of the future Tope. In 1832 the young student entered the academy or College for Noblp Ecclesiastics. the nursery of most destined for a diplomatic or administrative'career under the Papal Government. There he was educated in civil and ecclesiastical jurisprudence, as well as theology. In 1833 he won a prize of $132 by a thesis on the subject of ''Immediate Appeals to the Roman Pontiff in Person." The Asiatic cholera was sweeping over Italy. Mgr. Pecci. not being yet in priest's orders, could not minister to the spiritual wants and comfort of the plague-stricken, but he was active and devoted in assisting his chief, Cardinal Sala. in his important work of superintendence over the cholera hospitals. It may have been due to his anxiety to serve the sick and dying in a priestly character that, on November 13 of that memorable year, he received Sub-Dcacouship and Denconsliip at the hands of Cardinal Odescalchi, the Pope's Vicar-General, in the Chapel of St. Stanislas Kostka, in the Church of "St. Andrew on the Qulrjnal." On the last day of that same year?1S37?Cardinal Odescalchi, in the private chapel of his residence, in the vicariate, conferred the order of priesthood on Joachim Pecci. whiia utiii in his tliirtv-third vear Mgr. Fecci was appointed Apostolic Nuncio at the court of Belgium, with the titular dignity of Archbishop of Damietta. In the struggle between secular and religious education he strove to show the superiority of the religious method by making the religious schools better than the secular. Meantime Gregory XVI. had died, and Pius IX. ascended the Papal throne in time for the exciting scenes which made l.is Pontificate memorable. It was an era of struggle and of revolu-; LEO XiU. <T THE TIUT. OF HIS ELECTION A3 PONTIFF. tion, and tbe wave did not subside bo fore it had spread from one end of the Papal States to the other.

IN DETAIL, . Chryflogonus. This ancient Romanchurch had its origin in the time of1 Constantine and was rebuilt in A. D. 731 by Gregory III. On February 20, 1878, Cardinal Peccl was elected, after three ballots, to be the successor of Pius IX. The secret balloting which preceded the momentous choice was of unusual length and the proceedings of the dignitaries who took part in it were, it would seem, much agitated. On Tuesday, February 19. the first UU1IV11LJ? iu; CUC Ult'LUVU \JL JL UjiC iuua LATEST PORTRAIT < place. Sixty-one Cardinals were present. Cardinal Joachim Pood's name was read out twenty-three times, but. though far ahead of all others it lacked the necessary two-thirds vote. In the afternoon another ballot was taken. Cardinal Feed's name was announced thirty-eight times. lie had fervently prayed that he might escape the great burden which he deemed himself unable and unworthy to bear. The following morning, February 20. I87S. the balloting was resumed, and Cardinal Pecci's name was read fortyfour times, the two-thirds majority limit was passed, and Cardinal Peed was canouicallv elected supreme 1*0:1[ tiff of the Church of Christ. To the 1 question of he sub-dean asking l?y what name he wished to be called he answered "By the name of Leo XIII." It is supposed, and not without good reason, that the advanced age of Cardinal Pecei. his apparent feebleness and the belief that he would not live very long to fill the throne which some of his companions in the Sacred College coveted, had much to do with his election. The ability which he revealed in Beneven'o he has since displayed as ruler of the Iloman Catholic Church. Although he ascended the throne at a moment of great difficulty he showed himself quite able to achieve his heavy task. His predecessor, Pius IX.. had been a temporal as well as a spiritual sovereign. Pope Leo XIII. had an effective spiritual jurisdiction only.

His fragile hand was not outstretched above their heads for the expected benediction. Like Pope Pius, Leo XIII. also was "a prisoner." But there was a wide and striking difference between the manner in which Leo XIII. labored to attain his ends and that of bluff Pop#* Tius. He strove, for instance, rather for the principle than for the material reality of the.temporal power. He would possibly have contented himself with exercising sovereignty over that portion of Rome across the Tiber on which stands St. Peter's and the Vatican, and a strip of territory extending to the seaport of Civlta Veccbia, so that he might have been able to receive ambassadors and pilgrims alike on Papal territory. Without conceding anything to Khig Humbert and hig successive Ministers, while openly defying them at times and making protests against tbf repeated interferences of the monarchy with the cherished privileges and with the property of the Church, Leo XIII. conciliated rather than estranged his ad versa r lea. By Ills diplomacy, his foresight and the curious shrewdness which distinguished him he also won the good wiU or respect of foreign nations. It was at the beginning of his reign his ardent wish to bind the Papacy to all the courts and Tulers of the earth by diplomatic ties. As time Tolled on he modified this ambition, and made it his most zealous aim to gain the good will, the honor and. support not of the rulers but of their peoples. And, as we know, his prudence, his sagacity. his horror of extremes did not exclude a cortain quiet, dogged firmness. It was this firmness that led Bismarck to accord the Pope a deference which he reserved for few. Indeed Pope Leo and Paul Kroger were the only statesmen wliora he thoroughly and honestly admired. OF POrE LEO xnr. Those who were admitted to the in lunacy of Loo a III. toward the close of his beneficent career are weH aware of the not perhaps unnatural and most innocent pride witli which he regarded his own health and longevity. This pride occasioned his physician, Dr. Lapponi, muc'i anxiety, as it frequently led Leo XIII. to overwork himself quite needlessly. Almost to the end the late Pope's eyesight was unimpaired. His interest in the social, political and spiritual affairs not only of Catholics but of humanity at large, was. even in the last months of bis I'ontiticate, phenomenal. Pope Leo was always a man of extremely simple tastes, which ho brougirt from his ehildhocd'3 home at Carpineto, amid the hills, and possibly his cautious temperament, curiously combined with power and unhesitating decision, was inherited from his mountaineer ancestors. For his personal use Iiis Holiness selected instead of one of the numerous magnificent suits of the Vatican a few simple rooms containing little beyond absolutely necessary articles. His bed stands in an alcove, separated from a larger room by a curtain hanging ftrop innt'hlA cnliimTva Alinvo tho liod is a picture of the Madonna and Child. Beside it is n prayer table surmounted by a crucifix. A wardrobe against the wall faces the bed. and between the latter and the wall is a couch. The rest of the room was used as a study, and contains a writing luble with a crucifix; a chair on a carpeted platform, chairs and tables for the Pope's secretaries, writing materials, and a few books, among which are the works of Dante, Virgil and Horace, besides a Bible. The Pope, even when in good health, slept only four or five hours each night, and often in the morning his bed was undisturbed and the Pope was found asleep in the chair before his writing table.
