The Alien land law as it now
stand is such that if foreigner
should buy share in any stock
company the property of every
stockho,der would be forfeited; and
there is nothing to prevent any
stock holder from selling his share
or shares to a foreigner. There
fore the tendency of this law is to
dissolve, or discontinue every stock
company in Texas. We have here
in San Saba a Building and Loan
Association that has done much
good. But suppose some foreigner
should purchase a share and be-
come stock holder. Then this
company would, under the pres
ent alien land law, at once be
debassed from acting. A fine
thing, this law is.

The "Nec,s verge. ;,

The Meek Verse" is the first verse of
the fifty-frst Psalm. ..Have mercy
upon me, o God, according to thy
loving kindness: according to the mui.
titude of thy tender mercies blot out
my transgressions. 1t was so called
because when criminal under the En-
glish law claimed the benefit of clergy
this verse was used as test. The only
evidence of the condemned being a
priest was an ability to read, and if he
could read this verse his neck was safe,
for no civil court could send him 20 the
gallows. The law exompting clergy
from civil penalties was established
during the reign of William Rufus, and
continued in force till about the middle
of the Seventeenth century.
1t was often abused, for kindly dis
posed olergylnen would frequently
teach persons unjustly accused the
verse in question, and even render
them assistance in repeating it in court
but the disuse of the law was the nat
ural result. of a change in public senti-
ment with regard to the responsibility
of the clergy and of the more general
diffusion of knowledge, so that an
ability to read was no longer regarded
as an evidence of having taken clerical
orders. Louis Globe Democrat.

Queen Elizabeth started the style of
wearing silk stockings, and when some
kind and loving husband looks over his
wife's bills ut the end of the month,
with cil!l stockings ell the way from IS
up, lie can think of Elizabeth and
swear. As matter of fact the silk
worm began to kick up its heels in
early Greece, and then gradually worked
its way into Italy, and in the time of
Henry ii of England the silk era was
beginning to dawn. Silk stockings in
those days, however, were few and far
between, and when n pair of them
was presented to Edward VI by Sir
Thomas Gresham the king Rugged
himself with joy. Queen Elizabeth got
her first pair from her silk woman, Mrs.
Montague, and after she had worn
them once she declared size never
would go back to cotton, which is all
the more extraordinary, as Elizabeth
had no husband and had to pay her
own bills. -Cloak and Suit Review.

How rlectrIoIty Is stored ;.


The energy which a current may at
any instant be said to possess isSipine-
mcdiatciy transformed into he. ia the
circuit, which viii under certnin condi-
lions produce light; into chemical en-
ergy; into motion, which may or may
not produce sound, or into magnetic
and clectrotonic conditions. Tic last
may either be permanent or have the
same evanescent existence as the origi-
nal current
When electricity is employed to
charge storage battery. only that part
which is transformed into chemical
energy is used. The rest is dissipated.
The battery, then, instead of being a
place where electricity is laid away, is
place where chemicals are left by the
current, with the expectation that they
will in turn produce current when
called upon. This may seem fine
distinction, but it is only apparently so.
For instance, the current might be
produced by dynamo turned by Nj
agara water power The chemical left
by it might be zinc deposited from a
solution of zinc sulphate. This might
be transported, preserved, bought and
sold, and finally be employed by some
physicist TO produce another current,
Were the electricity itself stored in its
original form, then the imaginative
reader can best tell what would become
of it and how it must be handled
