The Early Use Of skates.

Holland is said to be the home and
birthplace of skating, and without
doubt skating was first practiced there
and in the far north. In country of
lakes and canals the necessity Of walk
ing and running on ice must have been
felt from the earliest days. In Hol-
land they show the bone skates which
were found in one of the mounds Of
which a Friesland village was built.
The skates were fastened to the feet
by straps passed through holes which
were made In the bones. A Danish
historian mentions the sport In 1874.
The bone skates were also first used IN
England. A writer in his account of
the amusements Of the young people Of
London in the twelfth century men,
tions the fact that it was usual for
them to fasten the leg bones of anil
mails under the soles Of their feet by
tying them around their ankles; then,
taking pole shod with iron, they push
ed themselves forward with great ra-
pidity by striking this pole into the Ice.

Home Rule Wanted In Norway.

Norway's secession from its union
with Sweden was not an unexpected
event in Europe The union has never
been natural or complete, and Norway,
like Ireland, has never ceased to strain
and struggle after home rule. the
causes Of discomfort are stated by a
Norwegian correspondent in the Ham.
burg News as follows:
We Norwegians are a people of 2,O0O,-
900, and out of these 100000 there ara
not a hundred who approve ST the I'M
Ion. Swede and Norwegian cannot live
together. The Swede feels that he is an
aristocrat. He is punctilious. stiff and
ceremonious as a Spaniard. We Nor
wegians are democratic and conscious of
our freedom and Independence. The
Swedes can never forget their exalted
national glory. They dream about it,
treat us as underlings and call us peas
ants. And peasants indeed we are, and
are proud of it, but We are not raScalS.
When any conflict takes place our king is
never on the spot here: he is in Sweden
We have, however. no complaint to make
of King Oscar personally. He is peace
fully disposed simple and fair minded
man. We also have a high opinion Of
the Swedes as men, but not as fellow sub
jects What we want with regard to
Sweden is a defensive alliance with her.
in which Denmark may also be eventually
included. But we are aiming at complete
independence both in our domestic and
foreign affairs If the question is raised
whether Norway is to be monarchy or
a republic. would answer we have no
objection to king. and Prince Karl who
has been suggested as a king for Nor
way. is peaceful and sincere man. but
the fact of 1t is we do not think 1t neces-
sary to have any sovereign lord at all.
The tone of the press of Denmark is
hostile to Norway's action in dethron.
ing her king. However, time cures all
things. and union of the three sister
countries, Sweden, Denmark and Nor
way, in the form Of an alliance. may
be solution advantageous to all.

..Don'ts" For Some People.

If you live in a certain state OF
chance to come under its laws, don't
wear a feather III your hat and, above
all, abandon the whole bird feather on
the headgear. Otherwise the arm OF
the law will reach for the offending
millinery and incidentally pull in the
wearer. The plumage Of rooster or
a turkey, however, is not under the
ban.
Don't monkey with cigarettes il you
happen on the wrong side of the line
of certain morally disposed states or
you may have to stand for fine any
where from S. to $500, with tour in
prison.
Don't fail to propose to some maiden
whom you are sure will reject you if
you want to live in single blessedness
after thirty years Of age and escape
the burden and the onus Of bachelor
tax. Even though you live in lucky
state just now, the next legislature
may change all that, and, by taking
time by the forelock, you'll have a rec
ord for rejection to the good.
And, as habits are hard things to
shake off, don't indulge in the giving
of tips" to agents, servants and en-
ployees, or the freak" legislators Of
your commonwealth may bring you
up with a round turn and make you
the victim of suddenly acquired stin.
giness with woeful results.
1t is entirely superfluous to say to
American mothers, Don't neglect the
baby" and the legislator who drafted
a bill to that effect must have been try
ing to strike the limits of the ridicu-
lous in lawmaking novelties.

Chancellor Won BulOw did not grab
at the title Of prince, which the Ger
man kaiser recently bestowed upon
him. He refused it twice when offered
and accepted at last probably because
he saw a fortune in sight to support
the position in good style. An inner.
itance fell to him about the same time
as the title Promotion came to Won
Bulow as reward for hard work and
not merely on account of sudden
stroke Of diplomacy in the Morocco
matter, as has been assumed. He is
under fifty-seven years of age, and
earned his spurs in the diplomatic
service.

WHERE DO YOU LIVE?

Ask any one in Wenatchee that
question and he "gives it up. It's
conundrum that can only be answer
ed by his leaving his office and going
with you to show you. Oh! yes, he
has a home and he can find it, but he
can't tell a stranger where 1T is, or
mis- grocery man where to deliver two
pounds of rice and some Quaker Oats.
No signs at street intersections. No
numbers on the houses. No hint of
how to go to reach any given point.
Stanley in darkest Africa could ask for

of reaching his destination for he

the small boy he meets that 'this

street he wants is First street south

running kitty cornered with the Pres
byterian Church which is right across
the road from the house that is next to
the house where the boy has the white

begins again with about an even
chance that it is really the third First
street that he wants. Three things
should be done and that without delay;
the numbered streets should be remain

street crossings; simple system of
Numbering the houses should be

our city more desirable place of res
idence, save trouble and expense to
every merchant; save every citizen
annoyance and place our city in bet
ter light with every visitor. It's d
little thing but like sand in the shoe,
most exasperating. Unlike many i'm
rrovements that we need but must
forego for a time because the cost is
30 large, this improvement costs little
and we call upon our city council to
lead us in this matter and grant us
early relief from this condition of i'm
properly named streets, of streets
without crossing signs, of houses
without numbers. We also call upon
each and every citizen to ask the city
council to do this and to cheerfully
and willingly do all that lies in
their power to aid the council ii
bringing about this greatly needed
improvement.
