"Sctting the River on Fire."

| SCtVuUR uuc 1ttveT Ou FlrCs
Sometimes. when a person wants to
make an unpleasant remark In a pleas
ant sort of way about dull bog, he will
say, THAT boy will never set the river
on fire. Now. that Is all very true; for
even the smartest man In the world
could never set stream of water on
fire, and 80 perhaps many OF you who
have heard this expression have won.
dered what is meant by setting the river
Oh fire.
In England. many. many years ago,
before the mlllers had machinery for
sitting flour. each family was obliged
TO sift It's own -four. For doing this. II
was necessary to use n sieve. called =
tense. which was SO fixed that II could
be turned round and round In the top
Of u barrel. II 1t was turned too fast
the friction would sometimes cause II
to catch fire: and as 1t was only the
smart. Woodworking boys who could
make 1t 20 so fast as that. people got
into the way of pointing out a lazy boy
by saying that he would never set the
tense on fire. After while these
sleeves went out Of use. but ms there
were still plenty of stupid boys In the
world. people kept on saying that they
would never set the tense on fire. Now,
the name Of the river Thames IL pro.
nounced exactly like the word "temse."
and 40, after many years. those persons
who Ind never seen or heard of the old,
fashioned sieve thought TINT "settins
the tense on fire. meant setting the
river Thames on fire. This expression
became very popular and travelled far
and wide. until the people living near
other streams did not see why It wns
any harder for n slothful boy to sct the
Thames on fire than any other river,
and so the name Of the river was drop.
ped. and everybody after that simply
] said "the river" meaning the river. Of
