A Cambridge lady, residing with her
husband in a German university town,
found herself the object of some distrust
among the professors wives-hrst, because
she had studied Latin, and second, be-
cause she knew how to cook. The first was
a criticism from the German point of view;
the second, from the German conviction as
10 the supposed American standard. If
she had learned Latin, she must be whim-
steal or ''strOng minded" if cookery, she
must be plebeian. ''Of course" they rea-
soned, If you were German you would
know how TO cook, but it is well known
that in America all ladies of any social
position sit IN rocking chairs and read
novels. If an American woman can cook
it is because she belongs TO the lower
classes"
1t was only after long acquaintance that
these solicitudes could be dispelled, the
cooking was more easily condoned than the
Latin. 1t is a comfort TO know that it is
by knowing too much that our sisters
create suspicion in foreign lands. In this
country the criticism upon them was for
merly that they did not know enough, and
now it Is coming to be that they do not
make sufficient use of what they know

When paper making machines were in
troduced, and the use OF molds was aban-
dOned, sheets came 10 bemade Of all dimen-
sions As a result quartos and octsvos had
all sorts Of dimensions, and the terms,
when used strictly 10 indicate how the
sheet was folded, became worthless as des-
icnatiOns Of size. The use OF the old terms
was nevertheless not abandoned; bot in
stead they were first used 70 indicate
rather wide range Of sizes, and finally were
attached 10 certain more definite sizes,
without reference TO the method Cf folding.
