FIRST REEL INVENTED.

The first reel that was invented was the
hand reel, the yarn being wound into
skeins by turning the wheel and fastening
the skeins after counting a sufficient
number of strands. The flax was first
woven into thread, or yarn, on the spin
ming wheel. then the bobbins, full Of
yarn. were placed on the hand reel and
yarn wound OF them on to the wheel into
skeins. The skens We're carefully count
ed and the lieben fastened on them TO
keep them together. The lieben was a
thread running across the skeins 20 keep
them in place.
\ later invention was the clock reel.
with a face on which numbers were print
ed. and il had two hands. like a clock.
When the wheel was turned. Keeling off
the strands from the bobbin. the clock
would tick when certain number #
strands were wound on the reel and the
housewife, instead Of .tediously counting
the threads. as on the earlier invenfe J
reel. would fasten on the lieben
In a quaint old ballad entitled Mis-
tress Polly and the Reel occurs this re-
frain:
He kissed Mistress Polly as the clock
reel licked"
The kissing being done at the propi-
tious moment when Mistress Polly ives

OF THE MOTORMAN IN FRONT.

When one contemplates the nervous So
licitude of the motorman on the front OF
his car, how continually he clutches his
brake with one hand and his power with
the other. on the watch to reverse every
instant, at the same time tapping his
warning gong that he may guide his great
machine through the streets so as to leave
way for the passers across the street,
who may use the poor judgment of chill
dren or have the feeblenesS of age, and
consider what fiend he would be if his
endeavor were directly the opposite, if he
were trying TO destroy cripple, and X
the powers of electricity and machinery
and the frightful momentum OF mass In
motion were guided by him for the pur-
pose of wiping out life wherever he could
overtake it, one gets lively notion of the
difference between a trade of war and the
occupation of peace Success in scattering
death through crowds of -.futtered folk

OF brave Mohammedans gathering up in
their robes from desert horizon TO within

stroyer as the gardener does his hose. Is
the latest triumph of civilization, accord
ing to the inight-is-right cult. Some day,
no doubt. the world, which has seen the
end of private warfare, and the end OF
the warfare between petty dukedoms and
little principalities of Europe. may see
an end altogether of the arts of destruc-
ton of human life as a noble art, as
professional calling for which men are
educated Only such horrors as those at
Lowell will then remain to exhibit by
accidentally purely, the death-deallng
work of explosives In the latter golden
age the force of such agents Will be
studied only with regard to the blasting

succeeded in placing a goal. Even Yale

The Board of Education of JEFF
ferson City has decided to open
the fourth room in the school
which has been closed for the past
three years on account of the lack
of attendance. There are in JEFF
ferson City 1868 negro children of
school age, which number will
warrant the maintenance of a four
room school if they are kept in
school regularly. The Board of
Education and the Board of Re-
gents of Lincoln institute should
have an understanding regarding
the number of children attending
the Lincoln Institute Model school.
The number should be limited and
no child should be admitted to
