A Sarcastic Reply.

When Jenny Lind was in this country
she attended the Bethel Church in Boston,
where the well remembered Father Taylor
was pastor The good man, who did not
know that she was present. was requested,
as he entered the house, to preach on amuse.
ments. The church was crowded, and the
pulpit stairs were filed. The sermon op-
posed dancing, card-playing, and theatre
going, but approved music. The preacher
paid glowing tribute to the power of song,
and to the goodness, modesty and charity
of the sweetest of all singers, ''now lighted
on these Shores" Jenny Lind was leaning
forward, and clapping her hands with de-
light, when tall person arose on the pull
pit stairs and inquired if any person who
died at one Of Miss Linds concerts would
go to heaven. Disgust and contempt swept
across Father Taylor's face as he glanced
at the interloper, "a Christian will go to
heaven wherever he dies, and fool will be
fool wherever he is-even if he is on the
steps to the pulpit"

Origin of Chess.

Chess is such an ancient game that its
origin is unknown. Many of the most
learned Oriental scholars have written upon
the subject, appealing to history and philol-
ogy to support their theories 1t has been
ascribed to a Chinese mandarin by the name
of Han-Sing, who, it is said, invented it as
an amusement for his soldiers when in
winter quarters, about ia B. G. They
call it ''the play of the science of war"
Sir William Jones, the great Sanscrit
scholar, claimed that Hindoo traditions, the
names of the pieces, and other particulars.
indicate that chess was played in India in
the earliest times. He writes that learned
Brahmin assured him that it was mentioned
in several of the oldest books of India,
where it was declared that it was invented
by the wife of one of the most ancient kings
of Ceylon to amuse that monarch while
Rama was besieging his metropolis. This,
by their reckoning, was 1000 to 5000
years before the commencement of our era.
On the other hand, several later scholars of
Sanscrit think it was invented in India by
Buddhists some time between the third
and ninth centuries, A. d., theory incon-
sistent with the unwarlike nature of Bud
dhism and the fact that the Hindoo name
of the game, "chaturanga," is a military
name, signifying the game of armies, cor
responding with the Chinese name for
chess, given above. Others have ascribed
this game to the Babylonians, Persians,
Scythians, Egyptians, Jews, Greeks or
Romans, according to their several theo-
ries, but the weight of evidence is in favor
of its being of Indian or Chinese origin, and
this is now the generally accepted belief.

How Shingles Are Made.

A correspondent writing from East Sag
inaw, Mich, says: "The oldest, brashest
logs are selected for shingles, provided
always they are not sound. If they are
sound they will make lumber; if they are
doty, worm-eaten, fre-burnt, disreputable
generally, they are worked up into shingles
The prime consideration in shingle timber
is to get wood that is sound and brash. It
must be sound to make a tight roof, and it
must be old and brash to prevent warping.
A log may be doty in places, and even
hollow, and yet have considerable good
timber in it suitable for shingles. The
logs selected, they are ''run in" and sawed
into "bolts 16 inches long by cross cut
saw worked by steam power These bolts
are placed on end, pushed against large
circular saw in motion and the good parts
cut out in the most economical shape as
the operator judges of it by looking at the
end. The refuse goes to the furnace-room
and the select blocks are carried to the
shingle-machines at the other end of the
room, where they are set on end in sort of
wise, and giggle rapidly back and forth
against a circular saw, the block being
thrown out at the top and bottom alter
nately by an eccentric movement for the
butt and top of the shingle, at the same
time it is moved back to the saw, each
movement making shingle. OF course,
these shingles are of all widths, and some
taper in width; some have knots and
shakes and doty strips through them, and
sometimes these defects run PARALLEL with
the sides of the shingle, and sometimes they
do not. Sitting near the man who operates
the block from which the shingles are made,
is the "jointer," a man who picks up the
shingles nimbly and holds their edges an
instant against planer, and that runs so
rapidly it appears to be standing still, and
then tosses them where they belong. All
perfect shingles-that is shingles of sound,
unblemished wood, and with parallel edges
and square ends, no difference whether
they are wide or narrow, are pitched into
one hopper and go below to the 'binder. "
These are GAIL"
Shingles that are perfect in every respect
except that the butt is not on a right angle
with the sides, are pitched into another
chute and go below to a boy who lays them
on gauge and pushes them against saw,
by which they are squared, after which
they are thrown on conveyer and go to
the binder of "A*1" shingles Shingles
that have doty streak or crack or knot
near the middle, are jointed and pitched
over the planer to a man who holds them
against circular saw until they are ripped
up and these defects cut out. Then, if
this operation leaves the sides and butts
at right angles, they are sent below to the
binder, but if these defects run at an angle,
the butts must be squared, and they are
sent down for that purpose first. Shingles
that are feather-edged" knotty, doty,
shaky, and incapable of being made over
into anything good, are sent down chute
and come out in bundles, by a strange trav-
esty on language, marked "No. L.

Some interesting figures are given in the
London Truth, showing the earnings of
well-known writers. Disraeli, it is stated,
made by his pen 930, 900; Byron, 923, 1000.
Lord Macaulay received 100000 on ac-
count of three-fourths net profits for his
history. Vhiers and Lamartine received
nearly 100000 each for their respective
histories. Thackeray is said never to have
received e5,0 900 for any of his novels. Sir
Walter Scott was paid 9110,000 for eleven
novels of three volumes each and nine vol
umes "Tales of my Landlord" For one
novel he received $4,000, and between
November, 1925, and June, 1927, he receiv-
ed S26, 900 for literary work. Lord Lytton
is said to have made ESQ, 900 by his novels ;
Dickens, it has been computed, ought to
have been making $4,000 year for the
three years prior to the publication of
''Nicholas Nickleby;" and Trollope in twen-
ty years made 100000. The following
sums are said to have been paid to the au-
thors for single famous books "Romola,"
