London Bakers. 1910.

In 1910 we find the following Bow
bakeresses accused of selling halfpen-
ny leaves deficient in weight: Sara
Foting, Christina Terrice, Godiyeva
Foting, Matilda de Bolingtone, Chris
tina Prichet, Isabella Sperling, Alice
Pegges, Johanna de Countebrigge and
Isabella Pouveste. One wonders why
the husbands were not summoned. In
similar case in 1916, when Agnes
Foting's bread was seized, it was lad
judged that her bread should be for
feited and given to the prisoners in
Neugate because her husband did not
come to avow (Own) the bread" Are
we to assume that in the absence Of the
husbands the bread was merely for
feited without the infliction of a fine?
An indication of the Importance of
the breadmaking business is also found
in an enactment of the reign of Henry
III to the effect that "every cart of
Bremble (Bromley-by-Bow) or Steven.

city with bread shall pay each day

On Reading Alaud.

1t is a distinct loss that reading is so
badly taught and that so few people
know anything about the magic of the
poets in their use of sound. We read
almost excessively with the eye, al
though poetry is primarily intended
for the ear. Shakespeare wrote almost
exclusively for the ear, and we remain
unmoved by the wonderful vibration
OF his great passages until we hear
them.
Poetry ought always to be heard first
and read afterward. If the best of
Browning is alphabetically and intel
ngently interpreted by the voice, the
much discussed obscurity is not in evil
dence. Many people find, for instance,
q little difficulty in getting the clear
and full significance of "The Portrait
of the Last Duchess" when they read
1t for the first time, but it fastens itself
Instantly on the imagination If it is
well read.
A good deal Of time now devoted to
commentaries and text study might
probably be given to reading the text
aloud without note or comment. A
work Of art slowly discloses it's full
meaning, and familiarity with it is the
first condition of comprehension

Birds and cold" Coins.

A French physician lately had an op-
portunity to observe q pointe de Paris
which had been lying for several days
In the stomach of a child and found
that the gastric juice had acted upon
the smallest particles Of the article,
bunting the blade and point and CIV
ing the medal brown color. In this
manner might be explained the process
used in Italy to produce old coins and
medals. Large birds are made to swal-
low roughly stamped coins with the
image Of Tiberius or Caligula- After
awhile the animals give off again the
coins, upon which meanwhile an ap-
preciable layer of patinG has formed.
This result is apparently due to the &C.
ton of the gastric juices.~Jeweler's

The Duchess of Orleans. mother Of
the regent who governed France dur
ing the monarchy Of Louis XIV, was
notorious for her ugliness. She wrote:
"From early youth I knew how ugly
> was and hated to have people look
sharply at me. never cared for dress,
as I knew that diamonds and orna-
ments would only attract attention to
me. Once Countess scissors asked me
why never turned to look at mirror
In passing, as every other woman did.
l told her l could not endure the sight
Of my own face.
"As q girl I must have been very
ugly. had little, blinking eyes, pug
nose and q big mouth with thick lips.
My face was broad and fat and my
figure short and stumpy. Nobody would
have tolerated me except for my good
disposition.
II don't suppose that there was in
the whole world another pair of hands
as ugly as mine. The king often told
me SO. and laughed, for was resolv-
ed always to laugh at my hideousness.
must confess that had to laugh very
often.
what surprised me most was that
any one could fall in love with me. I
was VIGOROUSLY the ugliest woman at
court, yet was married at 10.
II often asked my husband If the
sight Of me were not repulsive and
what he had seen in me that induced
him to fall in love with me. 1 never
got satisfactory answer, but I think
that I must have had some other at
fractions which outweighed my ugli-
ness"

In regard to the railroad project
which is just now engaging the at
tsntion Of the people Of this county
the GLOBE would suggest that the
matter of first Importance IL TO
perfect an organization and to az
certain how many people will be-
come stockholders in the Company
and what amount Of stock can be
placed. When that much is set
tied it will be time to decide just
what kind of road should be
built, what route should be selected
and a hundred other matters which,
if kept at the front now viii only
tend to vex and annoy. As a
matter of fact these questions can
only be settled by the stockholders
or the civil engineer. Let us not
attempt to cross the bridge before
ne reach it, and as the road which
leads to this particular bridge may
be long and devious, let us all give
our best efforts just now to the
work Of organization and so estab-
lish the project in the confidence
of the people as to insure its sue
cess.

A dispatch from Ottawa, Onta-

the principal promoters of the
Pacific cable, has written an open
letter to Hon. William Mulleck,
Postmaster General, in favor of a
state-owned telegraph line encir-
cling the globe. This is said to be
the beginning of a movement to
nationalize the cabel and telegraph
services Of the British Empire. il
this we're done, Sir Sanford says, it
would reduce the price of messages
to one-eighth or one-tenth of what
it now costs to distant British pos
sessions.
