Result Of IN Accident.

Moro novelties arc the result of &C
cidcnt than is generally supposed. The
origin Of blue-tinted paper came about
by mere slip of tho hand. William
East, an English paper maker, once up
on time, set his men at work and went
away on business. While the men were
at dinner Mrs. East accidentally let o
blue-bag fall into one OF the vats Ofpulp.
Alarmed at the occurrence she determin-
ed to say nothing about it. Great was
the astonlshment of the workmen when
they saw the peculiar color of the paper
and great the anger of Mr.. East when
he returned and found a whole vat of
pulp had been spoiled. After giving the
paper warehouse room for four years,
Mr.. East sent it up to his agent in Lon
don to be sold for what it would fetch"
"FOr what it will fetch p said tho agent
misunderstanding the meaning; swell
it certainly is a novelty, but he must not
expect too much" Soho sold the whole
at a considerable advance upon the
market price, and wrote to the mills for
as much more as he con!d get. The
surprise of Mr.. East may be imagined.
He hastened to tell his wife, who found
courage to confess her share in the for
tunate accident, and to claim reward,
which she received in the shape ola new
cloak. Mr.. East kept his secret, and for
a short time supplied the market with
the novel tint, until the demand exceed
ed the supply and other makers, dicover-
ing the means used, competed with him.
