An Old Lead Pencil.

Yesterday afternoon, while workmen
were engaged in tearing away part of the
two-story brick building owned by Mrs.
Anna Haubold, they came across a piece
of lead pencil which was found embedded
In the mortar between the bricks of the
walls. 1t had lain there for the past 16
years, or ever since the building had been
built, and was in perfect condition, of
course, as no decaying influences could
reach it. 1t was evidently dropped by
some workman while laying the brick.
