The EnsIish Navy.

In the earliest times OF the British
navy there was practically no distlnc-
ton between the merchantmen ana the
men-of.war. In the rare times of peace
pep-of-war traded as merchantmen,
while merchantmen always went arm
cd. Thus in time Of war the trader be-
came The warship and vice versa.
From the time of the conquest and
probably earlier down to the days Of
Elizabeth this was the ordinary prac-
flee Elizabeth hired out ships of the
navy for all sorts Of purposes, from
piracy to slave trading, taking her
share Of the profits when the venture
was sue cssful and disclaiming all re-
sponsibility when it wasn't.
Henry III, who may be described as
the originator Of the navy as special
lighting force. hired out the ships spe-
ciaIly built for the navy in times of
peace and even allowed them to be
taken away from their appointed sta
tons provided that the hirers deposited
due security for the return Of the ships
with their tackle and all equipment in
n proper state of efficiency. The prac-
tlce ceased after the repulse of the
Spanish armada, when the fighting
shin. as such, became distinct from the
tradcr.-LondOn Globe.

The word "stoyc," as applied to
heater for Il room. seems TO be Of about
the same age as the article TO which the
name is now applied, for while the
word as a name had an existence in
early English it was used in a different
sense.
Both Lord Bacon and Woodward
used It as referring to house or room
artifclally warmed and particularly a
dollhouse for plants. Bacon also used
the word rs a verb in the way of keep
ING warm in a house or room. as "to
stove orange trees and myrtles," to
quote from his writings Pepys used
the verb in nautical sense, as heating
for the purpose of making pliable, as
stove bolt ropes"
But all these definitions are obsolete
now. such disuse dating from the time
when Or. franklin made his discover
les and applications. The French word
"etuye," it may be added, describes
dollhouse or bathing room, and hence is
parallel in meaning with the early Eng
lish word
