THE FIRST MEERscHAUM PIPE,

In 1923 there lived in Pesth, the capi-
tai of Hungary, Karol Kowates, q shoe
maker, whose ingenuity in cutting and
carving on wood, etc., brought him in
contact with Count Andrassy, with whom
be became great favorite. The Count,
on his return from a mission to Turkey.
brought home with him whitish clay,
which bad been presented to him as n
curiosity, on account of its light specific
gravity. 1t struck the shoemaker that,
being porous. it must be we'll adopted
for pipes, as it would absorb the nico-
tine. The experiment was tried, and
Karol cut a pipe for the Count and one
for himself. But in the pursuit of his
trade he could not keep his hands clean,
and many piece Of sboemaker's WAX be-
came attached TO the pipe. The clay.
however, instead OF assuming a dirty ap-
pearRnce when Karol wiped 1t of, re-
ceived wherever the wax had adhered to
It clear brown polish, instead of the
dull white 1t previously had. Attribut-
ing the cdange TO its proper source, he
wa1ed the whole snrface, and, polishing
the pipe again, smoked 1t, and noticed
how beautifully it colored, and how
much more sweetly the pipe smoked af.
ter being waxed.

designate a time and place at which the
fellow-citizens of President Arthur may en-
press their approval Of his administration,
and their wish that he NAV be nominated
for President at the Republican National
Convention. 1t is believed that there is Il
widespread feeling existing among those
who manage and control the great
business interests which centre here,

country to this effect and it is fitting that
such sentiments should find means for pub
