THE FIRST PRINTING.
Some of the Earliest Examples of the
Art Preservatfve.

Some of the Earliest Examples of the
Art Preservative.
The following are the earliest known
examples of printing-two indulgences,
printed usually on one side only Of
single piece of vellum and two magnif-
icent Bibles. OF these one Is known to
be the first complete book that ever
was printed by the wonderful new in
vention, which, as the early printers so
often proudly state In their colophons,
produced "letters without the aid Of
any sort of pen, whether Of quill, of
reed or of metal"
The first piece of printing which Is
actually dated is the famous indul-
gence of Nicholas V. to such as should
contribute money to aid the king of
Cyprus against the Turks. This indul-
gence has the printed year date 1454,
and copy in The Hague museum has
the date "Nov. 10" filled in with n pen.
Mr.. Duff tells us that ''in the years
1454 and 1455 there was a large de-
mand for these indulgences, and seven
editions were issued These may be
divided into two sets, the one contain
ing thirty-one lines, the other thirty
lines, the first dated example belong
ing to the former"
This thirty line edition is shown to
have been printed by Peter Schoeffer
de Gernsheim by the fact that some Of
the initial letters which occur In it ap-
pear in another later indulgence Of
1889, which is known to have come
from his press.-Saturday Review.

TREATING A SPRAlN.
Perfect Rest and Hot Fomentntions
the First Requisites.

Perfect Rest and Hot Fomentntions
the First Requisites.
The question of how to treat Il sprain
Is often raised. Everybody under
stands the nature Of n sprain; that
wrenching of joint whereby some Of
the ligaments those very useful bands
which unite the bones forming the
joint are violently stretched or per
haps even ruptured. This kind Of In
jury is rarely, except through unusual
complications, dangerous in Its nature,
but it is certainly very painful ana
when of serious nature may result In
the permanent impairment of the joint.
Such an injury, if at all severe, is i'm
mediately followed by marked swell
ing of the parts, and prompt attention
should be given anticipating the ST.
geon's coming. The very first item in
the treatment Of a sprain Is perfect
rest of the limb until doctor can be
summoned. Reduce the swelling by
applications of hot lamentations as hot
as can be endured, changing about
once in every three hours. If piece
of oilskin be not at hand use common
newspaper. Wind It carefully outside
the hot cloth. This will prevent the
escape Of the steam and prevent the
cloth from cooling. A good way to
save the hands from being scalded is
to place the hot. dripping flannel in a
towel, then, taking hold Of each end Of
the towel, to wiring 1t until the flannel
is dry enough to apply.

Mr.. EDrToR:-A great deal of snow is

There are deep drifts along the roads that

had fallen to the depth of 50 inches,

One of the Best Notices For YOunB
Man Entering business.
The head of one of the largest dry
goods commission houses in this city
was asked the other day how it hap
pened that his partner, upon whom the
principal responsibility of the business
rests. came to attain that position
while not yet thirty years of age.
Purely and simply on his own mer-
It," he replied. "He came into my Of
fee one morning some ten or twelve
years ago and told me that he had just
finished school and was looking for a
position. l happened to have posi-
tion open at the time for an office boy
and started him in Mt So q week. His
rise from that position to the one that
he now occupies was steady and rapid
and was due entirely to the fact that
after having received an order or in
structions he could be relied upon to
carry them out, and do it correctly too.
He never started off on anything half
cock ed,' so to speak. He was not
afraid to ask questions and thus get
his instructions straight before under
taking the work in hand. In fact,
might say that he owes everything to
the fact that he was always accurate
in all that he did. You may think that
| am preaching a sort Of sermon, but
If young men entering business posi-
tions, whether high or low, would take
for their motto the two words, BE ac-
curate,' and would live up to it there
need be no fear of the ultimate out
come of their undertakings" = New

A VERSATILE WOMAN.

some of the Things For Which
Phoebe Bown Was Famed.
Phoebe Bown died something over
half century ago, aged eighty. This
extraordinary woman, who lived with
her mother in cottage nearly opposite
the High Tor, at Matlock Bath, Eng
land, could walk nearly forty miles
day when young, could lift a hundred
weight in each hand and carry fourteen
stone. She undertook any kind of man
ual labor, as holding the plow, driving
the team, thrashing wheat with the
fail and thatching the stacks. Her
chief avocation was breaking horses at
a guinea a week. She always rode
without saddles and was considered
the best judge of horses and cows in
the peak.
But Phoebe had also liking for
sport and for art. She was a good shot
and carried her gun ON her shoulder.
She was fond of Milton, Pope and
Shakespeare and performed on several
instruments, including the flute, violin
and harpsichord, and played the bass
viol in Matlock church. She was a car
penter, mason and smith and mainly by
her own hand labor built another room
to the cottage for the reception of a
harpslchord which lady presented to
her. At her own request local cler-
gyman wrote her epitaph, and here
it is:
Here lies romantic Phoebe,
Half Gannymede, half Hebe;
A maid of mutable condition,
A jockey, cowherd and musician.

Ruxsia's Ruler Owes This Title to the
Slip of . Pen.
The car Of r ssia owes one Of his
titles to slip Of the pen. The Chinese
character pronounced Hwang, meaning
emperor, was originally compounded Of
two elements, meaning "oneself" and
ruler" by which 1t was intlmated that
an emperor or ruler Of men should, be-
fore all things, be master of himself.
In after ages. however. by the omis-
sion of single stroke, this character
assumed its present corrupted form, in
which the component elements signify
white" and ruler" white having TAX
en- the place of the original oneself"
Some years ago it was pointed out by
st. Petersburg correspondent Of the
London Times that this had been liter
ally translated by the Mongols into
tchagan khan, and then by the Rus
SLAMS into biely czar, or the white
car" by which name the emperor Of
Russia is now known throughout the
whole Of Asia.-London Telegraph.

1.-The muscles of the skin need train
ing to educate them to contract vigor-
ously on the slightest cold" says a
medical writer, "to shut the blood out
Of the skin so quickly that the precious
body heat will not be lost. You notice
that when the skin is cold there is
goose skin appearance. This is due
to the contraction Of the little muscles
of the skin. The contraction Of the
muscles congresses the external blood
vessels and drives away the blood from
the surface, hardening and thickening
the skin, which thereby becomes bet
ter nonconductor Thus the body tenn
perature is maintained.
"It is because of the constant expo
sure TO cold that the Indians body is
all face The skin of his whole body,
not only that of the face, has learned
to take care of itself"

A surgical operation is no longer necss-

from the Kidneys and Bladder, since the
7aew medicine, Cal-cura Solvent, discovered
by the well-known physician and surgeon,
the late DIR. David Kennedy, quickly dis
solves and swiftly expels Stone, Red and

the inflammation and pain, caused by the
presence of these lime formations. Better
than all, Cal-cura Solvent prevents the

profession has accepted and heartily en-
dorsed the principal upon which DR.. Ken

HAMlET'S MAlADY.
4 study of the Melancholy Dane anS
His Moods.

4 study of the Melancholy Dane anS
His Moods.
The tragedy of Hamlet Is that man
Of q peculiar introspective tempera-
ment is called upon to settle practical
crisis. Hamlet knew this very well
himself, and that makes the tragedy
deeper. Brutus never doubted when
once his decision was taken that he
was the right man to cure the evils Of
Rome; Hamlet doubted from the very
beginning.
The times are out of Joint. o cursed spite
That ever 1 was born to set them right.
He was too fine, too distinguished,
too intellectual, u character to be the
rough instrument which fate demand
ed. He has the fatal malady of anal
yzing his own motives, which is gener-
ally destructive Of action. If you once
begin asking yourself what will be the
results and consequences of definite
act, you will find that at the moment
Of action your will is paralyzed by ex
cess Of scrupuiosity, as Hamlet's was
when with his drawn sword he saw his
uncle praying. 1t was disease of will
S.
any other times 1t would not have been
SO fatal. In this particular time, when
he was called upon to do a SPECIFIC act
- to avenge his father and kill the
usurper-it is Iot he, but n man rather
Of the Fortinbras build, who will be
the savior of society. Observe, too,
that, like many intellectual men, he
cannot be sure of his own moods. He
sees the ghost of his murdered father,
but is 1t an honest ghost, Is 1t really
his fathers spirit? Hamlet believes In
1t on the battlements of Elsinore,. but
he entirely disbelieves 1t in another
mood, when despite the evidences of
his senses he talks of 1.-THE bourn from
which no traveller returns" The trav-
eler who had returned is dismissed ap-
parently as fantasy of his brain. And
these supernatural visitings In such an
analytic and introspective mind do not,
as a matter of fact, supply him with
the motive for his subsequent action.
The ghost can make him put on an an
tic disposition, play with such crea-
lures as Rosencrantz and Guildenstern,
derlde the senile humorings of Polo
MUS and lessen the torrent of his words
against his mother. But what the
ghost cannot do is to make him kill his
uncle. He murders him at last, more
or less accidentally, because his moth
er was poisoned and Laertes had play
ed foul in the fencing bout. So curl
ously destructive Of strong, practical
voltion is an intellectual malady when
