THE FIRST POSTOFFICE.
Paris the Home of the Original Mali
scheme.

The fact that there is Il regular mail
route through Alaska, and that even
remote towns in Africa are not with
out postal facilities. is in these progress
siye times accepted quite as n matter
of course. Yet this wonderful system,
which has reached out until it includes
every country on the face of the earth,
had its beginning in the mind of an
ingenious Frenchman who lived less
than 80 years ago.
In 1868, early in the reign of Louis
NV. NJ de Velayer established a pri-
vate penny post, says a writer in Har-
per's Round Table for February.
Boxes Were set up at the street corners
for the reception of letters. Offices
were opened in various quarters OF
Paris; collections were made once Il
day from the street boxes, followed
many hours later by a single delivery,
and thus the first postotfice in the
world was established.
NJ de Velayer was so greatly en-
couraged by the success of his enter
prise that in order to develop it still
further he printed certain forms of bill
let's or notes which were intended TO
to cover all the ordinary requirements
| of business in great towns. These
forms contained blanks which were in
tended to be filled up by the pen with
such special matter as might be nee
essary to complete the writer's object.
The idea ut once became popular. and
the printed forms accompanied the eN-
pansion of the postal service through
| out the larger cities of France, and it
was many years before they fell into
| dsuse.

Good Manners.

Courtesy and consideration for 9TH
ers are demanded Of a gentleman I'M
der all circumstances, and especially
in trying situations. Good manners
show themselves in respect for women
in work and deed; in manly regard for
the feelings of equals; ii prompt and
cheerful submission TO disappointment,
and in honor kindness. firmness and
justice toward the helpless. Vigorous
health, great physical strength and the
excitement of competition frequently
render men brusque, uncivil and even
boisterous in their manners. The true
athlete. however, will never lose sight
of the necessity for mistaken good
temper and perfect urbanity and gen
tleness of manner. no matter how great
the heat of the strife or the magnitude
of the provocation. It is in the critical
moment that the chance is given him
to show whether he is a brute or a

HOW SHOT is MADE.
Dream Resulted in the Present Way
of Making.

Sometimes dreams are of value. Be
fore one Watts, plumber of Bristol,
England, dreamed his dream, shot was
made by the pouring of melted lead
through colanders, vessels pierced
with small holes through which the
lead dropped in small pellets directly
into water. The shot fiattened on one
side, however, and manufacturers
thought the difficulty was insurnount-
able. But Watts dreamed that if the
lead was dropped from a considerable
height it would have sufficiently cooled
before striking the water to prevent its
flattening. He tried dropping it from
the height of the church tower, found
he had made a success, patented the
idea and sold it for Il round sum.
\ famous shot tower is that of Lon
don. 1t is divided into two stories-one
so feet high. the other 160. The land
ings resemble each other and the diff
ferent heights are necessary according
to the size of the shot. In each is
large caldron heated by stove be-
meath, and beside it a queer-shaped in
strument like a frying-pan supported
on an iron stand close to the caldron
Beneath it is a hole in the floor. The
lead is III Sod iA the caldron and then
the attendant, like Il cook, ladies' the
molten mass into the fying-pan, which
has round holes in the bottom. In
ceaseless stream the silver hail falls
through the holes down many feet into
tanks of water.
The shot are taken from the water
tanks. dried and then sifted, as they
are not all of one size. The shot are
poured into long horizontal cylinder,
revolving by machinery, and pierced
with different-sized holes. According
TO the holes from which it issues, the
shot falls into its proper receptacle, be-
fore it reaches which. however, il has
to shoot down a series of smooth
boards set at Il small angle. and separ~
ated by narrow gaps. Those shot
which are round and true come rolling
merrily down the slope, and. leaping
the gaps, jump straight into their box
But the MAIN and halt and those
which are not properly round cannot
move so fast, and either waddle like
lame ducks TO the side. or else, rolling
slowly down, drop between the boards
into other receptacles. from which they
are removed in disgrace and remelted.
