SEWING COTTON.

The Humble Origin of the Great
Thread Industry.
The origin Of sewing cotton was told
at cotton manufacturers meeting by
the head of the great thread house Of
Paisley. Scotland. 1t was discovered
In 1903 by his grandfather, who had a
little business in Paisley, making silk
Irvine for heddles, which were used by
every weaver. The silk came from
Hamburg, and in 1903 Napoleon caused
the stock held there to be burned in or
der to hamper British trade. The weav-
ers were in despair, but James Clark
conceived the idea that cotton yarns
could be twisted together to form the
twines.
The experiment succeeded, and from
this grew the idea that cotton could be
substituted for fax in the manufacture
of sewing thread and would not be SO
coarse and harsh. He began the manu-
facture of the thread in a very small
way. 1t was at first put up in skeins
and had to be wound into little balls by
the purchaser, and then Mr.. Clark in
vented the modern spools. He had them
made by a wood turner, half a gross at
a time. They cost him sixpence doz-
en-. and he charged the purchaser Of the
thread a halfpenny for the spool,
which, however. was refunded when
the spool was returned. The ladies of
Paisley used to come to his shop with
their spools and wait while he wound
the thread on them. From this small
beginning grew a great industry.

SERVANTS IN ENGLAND.
The Case of Muggins, Who Wished
She Were Dead.

The Case of Muggins, Who Wished
She Were Dead.
The terrors of etiquette below stairs!
There once strayed into my employ a
housemaid whose career hitherto had
been confined to lodging houses. Up
stairs she always looked frightened,
and her face had a great attraction for
''smuts," but she was very willing and
very competent.
"lt is not for me to ask madam to
send Muggins away, but the rest of us
will go If Muggins stays. don't know
where she has lived out before, but
she drinks out of her saucer and does
not even know that we expect her to
be down in our sitting room at half
past dressed in her black and ready
to pour out the servants tea" OF
course l gave Muggins notice, recog-
nizing that the lodging house was her
proper sphere, and in the month that
followed I knew she suffered martyr
dom. She used to wipe her eyes
stealthily. and as she was not proud I
showed her some sympathy.
'"They amt nice to me downstairs
like you are, ma'am," she sobbed,
though Pm doing my best. Cook says
she won't wipe up the dishes for the
likes of me-"
''Never mind, Muggins. You'll be go
ing soon, and. after all, you have learn
ed a good deal here" consoled her.

QUEER JAPAN.
A Land Where Laughter Has No Re
lation to Pleasure.

A Land Where Laughter Has No Re-
lation to Pleasure.
In "More Queer Things About Japan"
Douglas Sladen says: Perhaps one Of
the severest of etiquettes in Japan is
that of smiles. When you have lived in
that land Of smiles you will learn in
time that when you can understand a
Japanese smile you may hope to under
stand the people. A daughter-in-law
must always present smiling face to
her mother-in-law; the servant must
smile when his mistress dismisses him.
But the news of death must be told
with laughter. Laughter is reserved
for very special occasions and has no
relation to joy. Smiles are used on
every occasion to conceal real feelings.
They are not always significant Of
pleasure.
mo wants has the Japanese" the
same writer continues. "He can live
in his clothes without tent, he can
live on rice or offal of the sea, and he
is SO accustomed to carrying heavy
weights and running long distances
that he can be his own commissariat
and even his own horse"
If the Japanese are somewhat lax
as regards their religion, they are at
any rate believers In cleanliness. The
writer says: Personal cleanliness is a
virtue which all Japanese servants pos
sess. 1t is no unusual thing for jap
anese servant to apologize to mistress
for not having had time to battle more
than three times that day."

SWORD stands In Churches.

Sword stands came into use In Lon
don churches when 1t became custom
airy to carry the city sword before the
lord mayor as he went to church In
state. During service the sword was
placed In the stand or case provided
for it, and in his own church the lord
mayor generally had the stand placed
conveniently near to or In his family
pew. This custom, which was quite
common before the end Of the six.
teenth century. apparently began In
the reign of Elizabeth. The state Wis

1894, four years after Belgium separated
from Holland as result of revelation.
The bankers were all in Holland and if
the railroads had been constructed with
private capital they would have been
owned by Hollanders. We did not want
that and so the Belgium government
raised by taxation the necessary funds
and built its own roads. The result has
been entirely satisfactory. Belgium has
only 1000, 900 population, less than one
tenth what you have, and yet its COM
merce amounts to one half that of the
United States, and moreover the govern
ment makes money out of the railroads.
