STORYETTES.
Early Lamps and wicks.

It would be hazardous to con-
lecture what the first wick con.
sisted Of; but when we come to
consider the iron lamp or "crusie,"
we know that the wick commonly
used was the pith of the rush,
which was gathered and partially
stripped of it's outer green cover
ing, cut into proper lengths, dried
and tied up into bundles ready for
use. The iron lamp was hammered
out of one piece of iron, in stone
mold. This was usually done by
the blacksmith, and the molds are
still to be seen in museums, in the
hands of private collectors, and no
doubt at some of the country
blacksmiths' shops. They are Of
one uniform shape, with some
slight varieties. The lamp con-
sists of two cups, one suspended
above and inside the other. The
suspender is so fixed and notched
as to enable the upper cup, which
holds the oil and wick, to be
shifted to keep the oil constantly
in contact with the wick. The
lower cup catches the drip of the
oil, which can be easily replaced
in the upper cup by lifting it off
until the oil is poured into it. The
upper cup has sometimes move
able lid.
There is a remarkable resem-
blance, not only between the iron
cruises in this country, but to
those on the continent and in
Egypt. They preserve the same
general shape, but differ in the
material from which they are
made. The Pompeian lamps, or
at least some of them, might be
described as three cruises in one.
The cup of the lamp is the same,
but it has provision for three
lights. The oil used in the Scotch
lamps was of the coarsest kind.
On the west coast the oil used
was, and is still, fish oil. The ma
terial for wicks was variable

No HABTT-or disease if you choose-is more
easily contracted difficult to overcome than
that OF saying unpleasant and ill-natured things
about ones neighbors It grows on man like
alcoholism, it is quite deadly inebriety and is
foolish and purposeless as profanity Those who
make practice of it are called knockers, because
they always ready to knock anything or anybody
in the head. The Philistine says that the man who
"ives by the hammer will die by the hammer
The genus knocker includes many varieties, not
the least Objectionable of which is the man who
speaks i'll of another not through any dislike of him.
but because he thinks he does you favor in so
doing. For instance you dislike Smith, and Jones'
who lives by the hammer, knows it, If he wants to
curry favor with you he will come to you and
vituperize Smith, disappearing his ancestors for
generations. He takes this course to win your good
will because he is coward and sycophant at heart
and lacks the ingenuity to say graceful and pleasing
things, to discuss the weather agreeaby and
intelligently. In doing he places you in false
position, drags you into discussion that is not of
your choosing and caters to the worst in your nature
Out of mistaken sense of politeness you indulge
him-you know he mathematics Smith simply to
please you-but all the while he talks your better
nature urges you to kick him down stairs. The
world abounds in knockers of this ilk who whilst
young are usually merely self-conscious asses, but
they advance in years become dangerous.
Knocking is first hsbit, then disease. There
are men, not bad fellows either who will knock any
one who doesn't happen to be around. They don't
mean any HARM but just naturally can't help throw
ing the hooks out. When of this species is

not his? So remember these two points: FIRST, that
each thing is of like form from everlasting and
round again in its CYCLE and that it signifies

for hundred years two hundred, for an

known he becomes harmless; it is only with the
passing acquaintance that he creates impression
He usually talks to you very confdentially and his
work, general thing, is pretty coarse but he will
at once retract all he has said when he finds that it
is distasteful to YOU He is tolerated friendless
individual and excites pity.
Perhaps the most artistic, and therefore dan
gerous, of knockers is the one whose hammer is
encased in velvet the one who knocks silently and
does his work through the medium of hints gestures
and innuendoes You never can put your finger on
this fellow; he is like pin prick between the
shoulders always just out of reach-and he tears
"a reputation to shreds with qualms of
conscience than he discards a worn out collar.
Among the pecuiarties of this breed may he noted
that they believe themselves to be rather moral and
upright men. Nothing from them at
first hand, for they merely scavengers with
photographic attachments it is always II hear this
or there is to that effect and they usually
protect themselves by protesting their unbelief in
the goods they retail The most innocent remark
assumes strange and abhorent qualities by their
handling and there are even cases on record where
simple turn of the hand shrug of the shoulders
has been made the groundwork for divorce pro-
ceedings and libel suits through their medium. II
you countenance of this sort of knockers your
life will be embittered and your mind distorted.
The knocker has always been, and probably
always will be, factor in the making of history
Whenever the times ripe for him, the breed
shows itself in great numbers, and each man carries
two hammers. The inquisition in Germany and
Spain and the fires of Smithfeld can all be traced
directly to his door What busy people he must
have been in those days! The idea that hundreds
of men and women worshipped the devil with hideous
rites must have originated in the diseased mind OF
some malcontent, and we can imagine with what
gusto the thought was nourished and cherished by
the rest of the lk before it finally reached the
of the heads of the church. In the days of the
torture chamber knocking reached it's height
fine srt. In those days it necessary to play safe
as well as to use the hammer, for other knockers
we're always around looking for head to hit. The
early years of this free and enlightened country
witnessed some ingenious knocking. Quakers and
old women were the game; the former stoned
and the latter drowned But notwithstanding all
the harm he has done in the past, the knocker is
ubiquitous today; he still tbrives and fourshes and
he always will thrive and flourish because he makes
it his business to pander to mans vanity and weak
ness to fatter at the expense of another; and
so long as human nature lasts he will be despised
and merely tolerated, but will always have enough
to eat and drink

the Amalgamated Association in position where it
