ago at the Grand Union hotel, New
York city of an attack of broncho- oneu-

prominent residents of that town and
and President of the Villas National
Bank. The Postlnaster-Gcneral faith

Salvfni An Irisi,maIl

The Louisville Post is responsible
for the following:
do you Know said my travelled
friend. THAT Tomasso Salvini, the
greatest &ctor in the world, is not an
Italian, but an Irishman?
"What!' said |. "Salvini can't
speak word Of English
Il know he can't, but he's an Irish
man all the same, and his right name
is Tom Sullivan. His parents, who
were laboring people, emigrated to
Southern Italy when Tom was an
infant. and died there before the boy
was olI enough to talk. The youth
was brought up by Italians and as an
Italian. lie never learned his mother
tongue, but always spoke the musical
language of Italy. In his young man
hood he was member of the Papal
Guards. Now, to prove to you that
Salvini is not an Italian, will cite you
two facts, viz: Natives of the province
of Italy that Salvini comes from al
ways have dark eyes. and are n.ver
bald in middle life. Now, Salvini has
light eyes, and has been bald as a
bilJiard-ball for many years.

The Son of u Butcher.

Cardinal Wolscy, the celebrated,
ambitious and unfortunate prime min
i>tcr Of Henry Will, is said to have
been the son of a butcher. He was
educated at Oxford. His rise dated
from the time he was appointed tutor
to the son of the Marquis of Dorset, by
whom he was introduced to a Sir
John Nefant, treasurer, of Calais,
which at that period belonged to Eng
land. The cardinal founded Christ's
Church College, Oxford, built Hamp-
ton Court Palace, and died in the wear

Yes, Tom was a pretty baby
everybody said So and she chances
across the room at sunny faced four

Willc's hair is light and his eyes, y

The Edges of Books.

Did you ever look at the ''marbling'
on the edge of 4 book and wonder how
they put it on? I did, and went to a
bindery on purpose TO see it done
One man performed the work for the
entire establishment, and | am told
there is certain secrecy about the
process that enc blcs those who follow
it to command high wages. There was
before the workman sink filled to the
brim with a dark-rcd paint, thickcned
with mucilagc. Near this was table
upon which stood the jars of the other
colors-N hite, blue, green and yellow.
These, too, are thickcneu in the same
way.
At the workman's hand are the
stitched but unbound volumes, the
edges of which are to be marbicd. The
slhkful OF red is examined, and al. for
eign matters skinned of. Then the
workman takes in turn Il brush from
each jar of color and strikes across !,
stick which aids him as a maul>,ick
does Il painter. This scattcrs the paint
from the brush to the surface of the
sink. where it lies, by reason OF its prep
aration, without running together
In this position the marbliny appears
just rs it does when on the edge Of the
book. Several books are picked up be-
tween the pieces Of millboard, and
while e]asped tightly together are held
against the conc"ction below fu Il
second or two. When they are with
drawn the marbling has been trans
ferrcd to their edges. Others are
dipped till the marbling is exhausted
from the sink. Then the whole pre-
paration is repeated.
Another thing think not generally
known is the fact that gi]ded edges
are put upon books not 50 much to i'm
prove the appearance Of the volume.
but to allow them to be more easily
cleaned. When gi't-cdgcd books are
dusty sharp slap against another
volume, or the surface of a table will
clean them instantly. 1t IS tor this
especial reason that thousands of books
are only gildcd on the top edy.
where the dust is likely to settle.
People not Knowing this often return
such books to their dealers as in
complete. Mirnyo Nr"S "Eu'ndlcr.

Amongst the delegates from the

Manager Pugh at the Broad and Fill
bert Street Station last Tuesday to dis
cuss the merits of the Penney lvania
K. r. relief fund, was sharp, quick
witted Irishman, who represented one
of the departmental. Addressing Mana
ger Pugh, he said "Mr. Pugh, l have
read about q white man and an Iud ian
who went hunting together. and they
shot turkey and crow. When they
came TO divide the game, the white
man said to the Indian Now then,
I'll take the turkey and you take the
crow, or If you would rather, you take
crow and I'll take the turkey Now,
Mr.. Pugh, this Is just what the Penn
sylvanla Railroad Company has been
doing. 1t has all the Tine been turkey
with them and crow with US. Now,
