History of the Typewriter.

"The history of the typewriter is in
teresting," said an inventor The first
patented machine was Henry Mills.
1t was as big as bureau and made no
popular appeal. This was in England
in 1714. The first type bar machine
was made in America. Its inventor
was A. II. Beach. The patent was
taken out in 1896. The Beach type
writer was not practical. The first
practical typewriter was invented by
Latham Sholcs III 1861 Sholes had for
partners S. W. Soule and Carlos Glid-
den, but these two men became dis
couraged and dropped out 1t wasn't
till some years later that Sholes got his
machine ready for the market. Then
he took it to II big firm Of gunmakers,
the Remingtons, and it ut once began
to sell on Il large scale. Sholes re-
mained in the employ Of the Reming-
tons up TO the time of his death"

The Orange Tree.

The orange is the longest lived fruit
tree. 1t begins to bear the third year
after budding, and for 100 years it will
yield abundant crops. Orange trees
have been known to attain the ripe
age of 800. The orange requires less
care and attention than any other fruit
tree. It's early growth is rapid. In the
first two years it grows more than it
will in the next fifty. This refers of
course to its height and breadth alone
its fruit stems and consequently its
crops increase more rapidly after the
first ten years

The Art OF IdIfnR,

Cultivate the art of idling. There Is
no doubt that t. be able to idle at will
is Il most valuable gift and one which
il becoming rarcr every day. The art
of loaGng Is not properly understood
by the majority of people. Much has
been written on the subject. Steven
son dealt with it in an essay; Mr..
Kenneth Grahamc touched on it in
"Pagan Papers" and Mr.. Barry Pain
has some Illuminating remarks on the
subject in his Canadian canoe book.
There is Il subtle difference between
the views of these experts. Mr. Gra-
hame advocated absolute idleness
Mr.. Pain pointed out, with more truth,
that the great art of loafng was to do
the easiest thing and that sometimes ii
Is easier to work than to he idle This
Is the secret of the whole matter The
superficial idler thinks it his duty to
be idle Oh every occasion. The man
who has studied the subject knows
that this is an entirely erroneous
view. There are times when we feel
that we must be up and doing. If we
sternly repress this inclination our
peace is disturbed. The really scien-
tific idler is the man who can idle ut
will.-LondOn Chronicle.
