The statement correctly bes a remarkable feat- ure of this district of Babylonia. While other parts of that country to the south are to a cer- tain extent watered by the Tigris as well as the Euphrates, the district. spectally referred to is exclusively irrigated by the Euphrates. Large “courses, afterward transformed into canals, but which seem originally to have been natural arms of the Euphrates, conducted a considerable portion of its water | from the higher level of that river into the bed of the Tigris, From these, as chief arteries of irrigation, smaller water-courses, such as ¢ alluded to by Herodotus, spread the water all over the country.

From the Atlanta Constitution. “We stopped suddenly,” said Dr. Raines, “when the two trains met on the track just this side of Rome yesterday. For my part, I went feet foremost under the seat that was just in front of where I was sitting. The most singu- lar thing that I witnessed was aone just across the aisle from me. There were two men sitting one directly behind the other, and in front of them was an unoccupied seat. When the en- gines struck, the man in front turned a com- plete somersault and lit in the vacant seat just exactly as he sat in the other seat. The other man performed exactly the same feat and lit in the seat lately occupied by his neighbor.” — 9 OF.
