Blotting Paper.

There is pretty prevalent belief that
blotting paper is a modern invention that
a hundred years ago it was unknown,
white sand being used in Its stead
Blotting paper, as a matter of fact, was
recognized convenience Of the writing
desk as far back as 1878. In that year
there was issued book called Town
sends Preparative to Pleading, copy
of which is in the possession Of a Chicago
antiquary, and this volume contains on
page s the following paragraph
LET the busting or sanding in books
be avoided, rather using fine brown paper
to prevent blotting if time of the ink ;
driving cannot be allowed, for sand takes
away the good color of the ink, and, get
ting into the backs of books, makes them
break their binding.
The sand that was used for blotting in
the past was, the Chicago antiquary says,
very clean and white and fine, and it was
called silver sand 1t was kept in cruet
with perforated lid, like a salt cruet, and
thence it was Sifted over the wet writing.
An odd thing about it was that the ink
never seemed to stain it. 1t could be used
over and over and it remained to the end
as white as snow.

now slow and measured, now tripping in
weird harmonies and gay melodies.
Hester blood quickened and her cheeks
grew pink. Her eyes lost their yearning
look and her lips their wistful curves.
Every week she faithfully took her mu
sic lesson of Penelope, and she practiced
only that when the children were about
1t was when they were at school and she
was alone that the great joy of this new
found treasure of improvising came to her,
and she could set free her heart and soul
on the ivory keys.
She was playing thus one night-forget
ting time, self and that Penelope would
soon be home from school-when the child
entered the house and stopped, amazed, in
the parlor doorway. As the last mellow
note died into silence Penelope dropped
her books and burst into tears.
"Why, darling, what is it p cried Hes
ter. 'What can be the matter ?
IL don t know, faltered Penelope,
looking at her mother with startled eyes.
''Why-why didn' you tell me 2
Tell you?''
''That-that you could-p-play that
way! II didn't know, she walled with
another storm of sobs, rushing into her
mother arms.
Hester clasp frightened about the quiv
ering little form and her eyes grew lumi-
nous.
''Dearie, she began very softly,
there was once little girl--a little girl
ike you. She was very, very poor, and
all her days were full of work She had
no piano, no music lessons-but, oh, how
she longed for them The trees and the
grass and the winds and the flowers sung
all day in her ears, but she couldn't tell
what they said By and by, after many,
many years, this little girl grew up and
dear little baby daughter came to her.
She was still very, very poor, but she
saved and scrimped and scrimped and
saved. for she meant that this baby girl
should not long and long for the music that
never came. She should have music les
sons
Was it-me ? whispered Penelope,
with tremulous lips.
Hester drew long breath
Yes. dear was the little girl long
ago, aud you are the little girl today. And
when the piano came, Penelope, | found
in it all those songs that the winds and the
trees used to sing to me. Now the sun
shines brighter and the birds sing sweeter
and 81 this beautiful world is yours-all
yours. Oh, Penelope, aren't you glad ?
Penelope raised a tear wet face and
looked into her mother shining eyes.
Glad oh motherI she cried fer
vently; then very softly, "Mother-do
you think-eould you teach mei-oh, |
want to play just ike that.-just like that

Jackson, which has been carried by him
ever since. Mr.. Brock is d.gnified old
gentleman, showing few signs of de-

served, and it shows that the date of his
birth was written ia years ago.
Surely few words from this remarka-

lures. in the popular vote for presi-
den. there was gan, from 1876 TO

gain Of 900 900; from 1884 to 1888, a
gain of 100000 from 1883 to 1892, a
gain of 500.O 900. and from 1892 to 1896
a gain of 100000 Between 1876 and
1896 the popular vote for presidential
electors Increased 65 per cent, or from
g 800. .O0o to 13.9Oo.OO0 The CONNER
call says Apparently owing to the
fac. that a vast multitude OF voters
lid not 60 to the polls at all in 1900,
the total popular vGte in that year was
only 10000 greater than il was in
1896 and, II any hing IKE a fun vote
is polled next fall there should be an
enormous and unprecedented increase
in the total vose. In the eight years
ended with Novebber. 1896, this vote
Increased 100000 and, as the popula-
