First Iron Steamship.

1t is scarcely credible that the en-
ployment of iron in Shipbuilding
should for years have continued TO
in the face of the success or the prom
Uses of enormous future success, which
had been achieved out of this metal.
For instance, the first iron steamer
that ever put to sea was called the
Aaron Mandy and was built in or
about 1921 from parts which had been
manufactured in Paris and sent to
London to be put together, It is hon
orable to the memory of Sir Charles
Napier creditable TO his sagacity and
foresight. that he should have fore
seen in some sort the issues Of n con
junction of metal with steam, says the
Atlantic Monthly. He it was who
formed society or company jointly
with the engineer Charles Manly for
the building of this iron steamboat
When she was built lin London) she
received cargo of linseed and iron
castings, and Capt. Napier safely nav
igatcd her from London to Havre,
thence to Paris. From 1922 to 1890
the hull of the Aaron Manly never re-
quired To be repaired, though she had
often been aground when filled with
cargo. The country with the admiral
ity in the foreground. looked on and
made no sign. The Aaron Manly was
certainly no beauty She was not like
the typical frgate, for eXample-but
she was a hint of deepest significance
And. consistently with the traditions
of red-tape departments, the heads in
the manner of Sir Joshua, shifted their
speaking trumpets and only took snuff
Scott Russell, --.e well-known enei-
neer, in short treatise gave an exam
pie of the character of the objections
urged against iron. "A good many
years ago he says. II happened to
converse with the chief naval archi-
tect of one of our dockyards on the
subject OF building ships of iron, The
answer was characteristic, and the
feeling il expressed SO strong and nat

said, with some Indignation Don't

RESPECT FOR BEAUTY.
II Is Part of the Italian Boys
Birthricht.

Walking through charming square
in Florence not long ago, two Ameri-
cans and an Italian lady, in passing
an old building adorned with some Of
the lovely terra-cotta reliefs of the
Della Roblas, fell into conversation
concerning the fortunate preservation
of so much beauty, especially of so
much delicate exterior adornment,
which a single stone in the hand of a
careless boy might shatter to ire
parable fragments. The italian shrug-
ged deprecating shoulder, and
spread her hands with the graceful
gesture of her race.
All! she said, sorrowfully, 80
many of our children, our boys on the
street are bad; very bad They are
what would you say ?-Imps! Little
imps! They romp, they run, they
break things. They will smash every
glass III every street-lamp, for amuse-
ment, if there is nobody to stop them.
They are dreadfully bad.
'But!"' she threw a world of en-
phasis into voice. lifted finger and
wide-fashing black eyes, Not these
thingsl They viii not break these.
They would never think to wish to
do it. They love beautiful things 1t
Is Unborn. They nave them always
to see and love They enjoy them. and
do not wish to hurt them Even our
rough and bad boys are not rough
with things that are beautiful"
We cannot yet, in our young coun-
try, where we are but just learning
to make our cities beautiful, hope to
echo the justitiable boast Of the Flor
entine lady. But it is significant and
cheering. 1t encourages the belief that
the widespread aspiration toward
beauty which has recently created
such magnificent palaces for the peo-
pie. as our Congressional Library at
Washington, and which is daily en-
riching hundreds of schoolrooms all
over the broad land, tends quietly but
strongly toward sentleness of manner
and greater respect for public posses
sionS and it does this while achieving
its more obvious end of instruction
and delight.
Already some teachers report that
children are easier to control in beau
tful schoolrooms They feel. without
being aware OF it, the difference and
the dignity of their finer surround
ings, and do not fail to respect them.

Objected to Modern Methods.

There is Il mail-ortler house in Chi
cago which has no city trade, but
draws It's business entirely from rural
districts, through the medium of cata-
logues and correspondence. Some Of
the letters received from the country

brought his tirst-born to be christened.

held the struggling infantile specimen
