LORD HERscHELL's PRoWLs
He Was Fond of Exploring for Fun
Around Washington.

Lord Herschell had a fondness for
going around and looking at things on
his own hook. When he first came TO
Washington he was driven over the
city numbers of times and shown the
noints Of interest. but he liked walk
ing better. and he took numerous long
prowls about the city quite unaccem-
panied On one of these occasions he
was accosted in front Of the Smithson-

wan Paper, ,ncien, and Modern.

wall Paper, Ancient and Modern.
A recent issue Of Paper Trade con-
tains some interesting points concern
ing the development of the wall paper
industry While various kinds of print
ed fabrics were known to the people
Of most remote antiquity, it was not
till the eighteenth century that wall pa
per in anything like its present form
came into common use in Europe
though it appears to have been used
much earlier in China.
A few rare examples which may be
as early as the sixteenth century exist
in England but these are limitations,
generally in flock" Of the old Flor
entine and Genoese cut velvets, and
hence the style Of the design in no way
shows the date of the wall paper, the
same, traditional patterns being repro
duced with little or no change for many
years

Doesn't Pay to " orlt All the Time.
Il have tried working nights, and
seven days in the week, and all that
sori Of Thing, said Mr.. Bitterly, with
vague idea that nature would make
an exception in my case, and that l
could do it all right, whether anybody
else could or not but | find it doesn't
pay, which is to say that nature didn't
make any exception in my case. 1t
may smile indulgently on me at the
outset Of my breaking of its establish
ed rules, but if l persist it gets stern
and makes it clear to me that | must
not violate its rules, doing this by
bringing down nay output without re-
gard TO the number Of days or nights
! work. to as little or less than | could
produce in six days work, besides
keeping me in a state of perpetual ner-
vousncSs and worry.
'Thc fact is that we need a day of
rest; that no spring is inexhaustble,
and if we keep on dipping after the
water is low we dip IN mud with the
water. and it doesn't pay; its better to
give the spring 4 chance to fill up. and
and to give your back a chance, too.
~ man that is 1T and trim can do
more work in six days than tired
man can in seven. The man that tries
to get more out of himself by working
all the time really gets less. If he is
crowded for money and wants to work
and earn it, the temptation is great to
keep right on at work all the time, and
earn al he can, ana if he permits him
self to stop at all. lie thinks he's vast
ing time; hut. bless us! he isn't, he's on
| ly giving himself It chance to fill up.
Let him keep calm and enjoy that peri
od of idleneSs; and it is not really idle
ness, it's recuperaton. Then when the
time comes to work let him pitch in
for all he knows how; he can't work
too hard then, but it certainly does not
pay TO work all the time"
