Valuable Old BooLs

In the British museum may be seen an

great beauty; the binding is of velvet inter
mingled with silver, with broad silver
border enriched with inlaid gems.
Coming TO the Eleventh and Twelfth CEN

manuscript upon vellum. These had
diptych covers, which means "a double
writing tablet, such as could be folded. and

Diptyches in the time of the Roman en-
perors were of two kinds, first, consular.

the outer side, portrait of the giver. An
ecclesiastical diptych was rich in scenes
from sacred history.
The inner surface of wax showed the

There were sixteen medallions on each
side, representing ancient prophets and
saints, with their symbols and inscrinions
in ancient, uncial letters, and, as a grand
finish, the whole was surrounded with
foliage of ivory work in the Greek STYLE

It Is not definitely known where our do.
nestle bird halls from. The nearest ap-
proach to it, In wild state, is found in
India, and the most likely theory is that to
India we owe debt Of gratitude for our
favorite broils, fries, roasts and fricassees
Next to the Indian bird alluded to, the
grouse probably comes nearest, in appear
alice and habit, to our barnyard bird. The
young of the grouse, or prairie chicken, as
they are commonly called in the west, are
very similar to our chicks.
When just out Of the shell they are the
cunningest little creatures You ever saw.
There Is nothing much prettier than a
freshly hatched brood of little, tailless
barnyard yawpers; but the young grouse
are smaller, more firmly built, great deal
more active and much more handsomely
colored. They usually have bands of dark
color which alternate with lighter shades

whereby it will get all of the Democratic

time to mention casually that hereaf ter

FITS HERE EXACTLY

The following from the Anacortes
American suggests exactly the thing
that should be done in Fairhaven. and
II is so much to the point that it is
reprinted in this paper as something
that, with the change to "Fairhaven"
wherever the word "Anacortes" an
pears, should be taken hold of and
pushed to success Immediately. Mi
cawberism doesn't pay in this day of
the world. The way to make things
turn up" is to take hold aud turn
them up. The American says:
A gentleman largely interested in the
city threw himself In happy good humor
upon one OF the sofas at the Anacortes
Just after dinner the other evening and
said, What we ought to do, gentlemen,
Is to raise few thousand dollars and
build small eupola somewhere on the
water front, and by actual experience test
the possibility Of Introducing a large
Smelter here, Assays Of our ores give
rieh promise, and the newspapers are full
OF glowing descriptions of new discover
les being constantly made, and yet no one
has thus far really made a practical test
OF these ores and the value OF the steel
and iron resulting from them by an actual
manufacture" The consummation of
such a deal would go far towards the
erection OF large smeiter in Anacortes,
and contains the ultimatum of wisdom
on the subject. Demonstration demands
development. The erection of small
cupola and manufacture and sale Of iron
and steel from the ores of this region,
provided the quality OF the product
proved OF the right stamp, would carry
an influence towards the erection of a
smelter and similar industries that Is to
be gained in no other way.
