In the stories of atrocities in the con-
quest of the new world fernando
Cortez and Francisco Pizarro stand out
as the basest of the long list of Span
ish tyrants who came across the At
lantic in search of treasure in the six
teenth century.
fernando Cortez began to display his
wonderful courage, remarkable talent
in governing men, and great cruelty
when but nineteen years of age. He
was then in Cuba and was given COM
mission to visit the new Ell Dorado,
Mexico. In that new country he sought
out the ruler Montezuma, who had Civ
en- himself the title of king over all
kings" Cortez first heard of Monte
yuma when he had landed his men at
q place which he called Vera Cruz, and
founded a settlement there, sending
word to Montezuma that he had been
sent by the Spanish king to visit the
MeXicans. He also said his men We're
troubled with a complaint of the heart
that could only be cured by gold. Mes
sengers went to MonteZuma, but soon
returned, saying he would not receive
the strangers, but he had sent them q
large sum of gold and many beautiful
Jewels and babe them go in peace to
their own country.
Mad for Wealth.
This display of gold made Cortez mad
for wealth. He determined to conquer
the Mexican ruler, and to keep his
soldiers loyal to him he burned all his
ships He Immediately started for the
City of Mexico with his horses and
cannon. On his way he met the Tlascala

The click of the American typewriter is heard
around the world. The tourist finds it turning up
in all sorts of corners from Iceland to
Van Diemans Land. With the Dongola and Ashanti
expeditions it has penetrated into the heart of the
African wilderness; with Lieut. Peary, it found it's
way to the Arctic regions; the Russian government
has sent it all through Siberia it is to be found in
the homes of the missionaries in India The Car of
Russia has richly engraved gold-pated, white-en-
ameled ivory-keyed typewriter for writing both
English and Russian. Queen Victoria has one in her
household, and SO have the Queen Regent of Spain
and the Khedive of Egypt In the wreck of the bat

the Russian eastern squadron's flagship suddenly
sink in the Yellow Sea- American typewriter
would be found in the captains cabin.
The universal use of the typewriter is due to it's
easy adaptation to almost any language capable of
being printed. Typewriters have been made to write
Greek, German, Hebrew, Samese, Telegu, and Rus
sian. The accents, important part in other Ian
guages than English, written with dead keys,
which do not move the cylinder carrying the paper.
The dead key device has recently been ngenously APP
piled in solving difficult problem in typewriter con-
structon. An English missionary in India DIR Jacob
Chamberlain, at Madanapee, Madras Presidency
wishing to translate the Scriptures for the natives
wrote to an American typewriter company asking if
typewriter could be made to write the Telegu Ian
guage He had been using an Engish-wrting type
writer, and one day. when it smashed by plaster
falling in his bungalow the idea of Teegu typewriter
occurred to him The Telegu language is peculiar, in
that every letter represents syllable The mission
airy resolved the language into 24O characters but
upon further study found that these characters
built up from much smaller number of basic FORMS
These forms were handcut in India under the mis-
sionarys direction and sent to the typewriter COM
pany. With the aid of the dead key it found
possible to build up all the composite characters of
the Teegu language upon standard keyboard.
The typewriter words look like Chinese laundry
mans efforts, confused Of curlycues, spots,
points, and assorted crescents The missionary
found his Telegru typewriter valuable in Christ

orders for similar machines With them large por-

Patti was to sing on a certain date
at Bucharest but az the last moment
she declined to leave Vienna 1t was
too cold; snow everywhere; she would
not risk catching her death OF cold.
M. Schurmann, tho impresario, was
in despair, until a brilliant inspira-
ton came to him. Quickly he tele-
graphed to his advance-agent in the
Roumanian capital: SAT whatever
cost, Patti must receive an ovation
at Bucharest station from the Italian
aristocracy. Send me by return the
following wire: The members of the
Italian and Roumanian nobility are
preparing to give Nine. Patti mag
niiicent reception. The ministry
will be represented. Professions,
torches, and bands. Telegraph the
hour of arrival" The advance
agent carried out this instruction,
and, when the telegram dictated to
him over the wires arrived in Vienna,
it was handed to Patti with the de-
sired effect. "How charming!" she
murmured; what time do we startp"

Even in these days of fervid heat
very many tourists-brides included
wear travelling costumes of tweed.
Some of the summer tweeds are ex-
ceedingly light and are as cool as cam
bric. No more serviceable travelling
dress can be desired. One appears in
it after a journey of many days as
fresh looking ana trim as when the
dress was first put ON. This can be
said of but very few dress fabrics. "A
blue and brown or green and gray
brown heather mixture is good, and
the buttons may be of the same mix

there may be facings and Innings of

The annual manufacture of looking
glass in Europe at the present time,
according to the latest statistics, is
something like 1,S50,0o8 square
yards. In the mirrors of to-day the
light is reflected by layer OF silver
or an amalgam of tin, but q pro-
portion of light is lost in the process
of reflection, and the image is less
luminous than the original. The
value OF looking glass is estimated
by the thickness OF the glass, because
the thicker they are the stronger
they must be; but, speaking scien-
tifically, thick glasses are defective,
because the outlines of the image re-
Elected are less clearly defined.
