a Stolen Iraaa Secret.

The manufacture of tinware in Eng
land originated in a stolen secret. Few
readers need to be informed that tin
ware is simply thin sheet iron plated
with tin by being dipped into the molt-
en- metal. In theory it is an easy mat
ter to clean the surface of iron. Dip
the iron in bath of boiling tin and
remove it enveloped in the silvery met
al to- a place Of cooling. In practice,
however, the process is one of the most
difficult of arts. 1t was discovered in
Holland and guarded from publicity
with the utmost vigilance for nearly
half n century. England tried to dis
cover the secret in vain until James
Sherman, q Cornish miner, crossed the
channel, insinuated himself surrepti,
tiously into tin plate mandatory,
made himself master of the secret and
brought it home.

Strange Freak of Memory.

There is a strange story of how
Sir Walter Scott, producing 1.-THE Bride
of Lammermoor' during Illness was
afterward found to have forgotten en-
tirely what he had thus created. Ac-
cordfng to James Ballantyne, "the book
was written and published before Mr..
Scott was able to rise from his bed,
and he assured me when 1t was first
put into his hands in complete shape
that he did not recollect single Incl
dent character or conversation It con-
tanned. The original incidents of the
story, which he had known from boy
hood, he still remembered, but he knew
no more about the story he had writ
ten than he did before he began to
write or even think about writing it."
These facts We're corroborated by Mr..
I.oclihart Sir Walter Scotfs son-in-
law and bicgrapher, so that they are
placed beyond question.

AN ARGUMENT OF FORCE.

Napoleon Smashed Vase, and the
Treaty Was Signed.
Early in April, 1897. the people of
Austria demanded peace with France.
Negotiations We're begun in the vicini-
ty of Leohen. Bonaparte, in an inter
view with the Austrian plenipotenti-
aries, said 10 them, Your government
has sent against ME four armies with
out generals, and this time a general
without an army" III the treaty
which the Austria9, commissioners pro-
iected the first aracle stipulated that
the emperor of Austria thereby recog-
nlzed the French republic Erase it.'
exclaimed Napoleon. THE existence
of the republic is MS plain MS the sun.
This article is only lit for the blind.
We are our own masters and shall es-
tablish any government we prefer. If
one Gay the French people," he con
tinued, SHOULD wish to create mon
archy, the emperor might object that
he had recognized republic" The
preliminaries were soon settled, Napo-
leon signing for France, thus placing
himself on an equal footing with the
emperor of Austria. The formal treaty
known as Campo Formio was signed
in October 1907, Austria fulfilling the
pledges she had already given. The
Austrian p!enipotentiary protested
against the distribution of the prov
inces beyond the Adigc. Napoleon was
angered at this, and, seizing vase,
dashed it TO the ground, exclaiming,
IF it is not so arranged l will breal,
your monarchy us have broken this
vase" This argument of force, as
demonstrated 10 the diplomat was
convincing. and the treaty was signed

1t is futile to try to lay down gen
eral age limits for the different kinds
OF athletic sports.
The limits vary individually within
very wide marks and if observations
made on number Of individuals of
the present generation put them very
low this does not mean that they would
be the true and desirable limits If we
had n generation whose physical cdu-
cation from the beginning had been
undertaken and carried out upon plan
only one-fourth or even one-tenth as
elaborate as the plan for its mental
education, not only as far as exercise
and sport are concerned, but also in
regard to eating, drinking, clothing,
sleeping, pleasures, stimulants, etc,
and whose individuals were willing to
continue to live upon similar plan
after growing out of the hands of their
educators.
Live simple, natural life, take
strenuous exercise every day Of your

do so, and see what will become of
