The Earliest Anchors.

The earliest anchors of which we have any record were of wood, ard gradually, through the iron anchor of one hook and the anchor in the shape of rake, there was evolved the an- chor with the straight thick shank, the two curving arms with fattened extremities and the long cross stock The process of storing one of these old anchors was a long and laborious one. It was hove close up to the capstan or windlass; a man was let down by rope to hook on a huge tackle, by which the anchor was then h0isted. still perpendicular, to stout project Ing timber. Then the lower end had to be hoisted up horizontally by an other tackle and the whole made fast. In the modern stockless anchor q chain is attached to it at the balancing z point, and this is passed through a pulley at the head of the anchor davit. When tie anchor is high enough. davit and all swing round until the anchor Is over the billboard, where it rests and is secured by chains-London Globe

Power of FaIlinu Water.

It is perfectly we'll known to every one that water constantly droppiny upon a stone will wear it away, and there is trite old proverb regarding this fact The force of a single drop of water falling from a height is not great, but the results of this tiny blow when 1t is many times repeated are astounding. There Is a story of one poor wretch who was bound with his back to stone wall and had stream of water "of the bigness of mans finger" directed on to his bare head, the water falling from a height of about eighteen feet. The receptacle from which this apparently harmless stream trickled was barrel holding only twenty gallons. but before the water had more than half run out the man was dead, with hole in his skull which exposed the brain.-Popular Me chanics.

He Couldn't Flow.

A certain incident connected with Ihe great Napoleon while he was in eX- He in Elba is commemorated in the is land to this hour by an inscription af Nxed to the wall of q peasants house.
 A man named Giaconi was blowing when the famous exile came along one day and expressed an interest in his work Napoleon even took the blow share out of the mans hand and at tempted to guide 1t himself. But the oxen refused to obey him, overturned me blow and spoiled the furrow.
 The inscription runs thus: Napoleon the Great, passing by this place in MDCCCXIV, took in the neighborins neld a plowshare from the hands of d peasant and himself tried to plow but me oxen, rebellious to those hands which yet had guided Europe, headlong @ed from the furrow.'

Slanq of Other Days.

Slang has always been fruitful source for the expansion of language. and instances may be multiplied of words now respectable which were once tabooed as vulgarisms. But, on the other hand. there have been many slang phrases in use for centuries which have never become acceptable to the purists. AS long ago as 1750 the celebrated letter writer Horace Wal pole used to speak of "sitting guzzling' and getting drunk as an owl.' Then again in the diary of one of the most prominent woman writers of the eight eenth century. Frances Burney, are found good slang phrases of the Amer ican college girl of today, as, for in- stance, "I sneaked out" Did you ever know such toad?" and "I had vile cold."-St. Louis Republic.

Work;nG !n Steel Masks

The workman wore a steel mask with glazed eyeholes, a rubber suit, rubber gloves and rubber boots, and lie carried a pair of tongs of silvery alu mlnium.
 "In certain departments of the plant" said the dynamite manufac- turer, "all our workmen are dressed like that. They must be. Otherwise they would be smeared with chemicals and splashed with acids that would eat their flesh like liquid fre.'
 "But the aluminium tongs?"
 'They are for lifting the gun cotton out of its nitric acid bath. Aluminium Is the only metal upon which the nitric acid has no effect"
 He turned to the workman.
 "Everything all right, George?" he said.
 "So, so," came sepulchral answer from behind the mask of steel.-New Orleans Times s-Dcmocrat.

Before Susy began the biography she let sall remark now and then concerning my character which show ed that she had it under observation In the record which we kept of the chlldren's sayings there is an instance of this. She was twelve years old at the time. We had established a rule that each member of the family must bring a fact to breakfast--a fact drawn from book or from any other source; any fact would answer. Susy's first contribution was in substance as follows: Two great eXiles and former opponents in war met, in EphesuS, Scipio and Hannibal.

At His Word,

Many postoff1ce names are queer enough to make one desire an explana- ton of them. Sometimes the explana- ton is queerer than the name itself. A minister in Cass county wrote to Washington in behalf of the residents of growing hamlet, asking that a postoflce be added to its institutions. The request was favorably received, and he was asked to suggest a name that would be acceptable to his neigh bors. He replied that they were not hard to please so long as the name was peculiar. The postoffice department took him at his word, and "Peculiar" is the name of the office to this day. Kansas City Star.

The Deadly Finger Nail

Every time you scratch yourself you run risk. No, don't smile that superior smile and say that you have never yet had any trouble from it. What we say is true. Ask any physician. To scratch your scalp, pimple or a scab is particularly dangerous. Your finger nails carry germs of Eczema, Tetanus (Lockjaw) Erysipelas and all manner of skin diseases. Let one little germ get into the scratched place and trou- ble is sure to follow. Because you have been lucky enough to escape so far is no guaranty that you will be so lucky in the future. Don't take chances. For any itch ing use Littell's Liquid Sulphur, stops itch ing instantly, and permanently relieves all forms of skin complaint, eczema, erysipelas, pimples, running sores, letter, ring worm, chaps, roughness, redness or skin blotches.
 Gentlemen: November, 1902, l con- tracted facial erysipelas and my physicians prescribed ichthyol ointment and retirement from business. After one days use of the ointment l concluded the erysipelas was preferable, on account of the villainous odor and color of the ointment. Having by me a bottle of Lttell's Liquid Sulphur with which 1 had cured, with one application, an aggravated case of fprickly heat the prev ious summer, abandoned all other reme- dies and applied that with most satisfactory results, as the disease was confined to its original limits and in due time disappeared.

HyperboIe.

A Rochester clergyman was accus- toned to use scientific terms, which the people did not understand. A deputa- ton waited on him with the request that in the future whenever he used such terms he would explain them. On the following Sunday he used the term hyperbole and added: "As agreed on, beg to explain this word. Were to say that at this moment the whole of my congregation are sound asleep it would be hyperbole, but If say that one-half are asleep that is no hyper bole, but the truth" The next day the deputation again called to say that the minister need not explain technical terms. The people would learn their meaning from a dictionary.-Roches Herald
