The following account Of its origin
is given in a Boston paper:
Captain John Welch Of Boston was
the creator and carver Of the celebrat-

PORTABLE FIREARMS.
The First Muskets Were Clumsy and
Awkward to Handle.

While the introduction Of portable
froarms into Europe is Of compare
4iyely recent date, their use was fre-
o,7ant among the Mohammedans of
eastern Asia 1T i very early period. La
Rrocuucre. vino made 4 journey to
Jerusalem in the middle Of the fif-
teenth century and who travelled ex-
tensively in the east. mentions the FIR
ing of small arquebuses at the great
festivals in Damascus.
The first use of muSkets in Europe
was ut the siege Of Rhege in 1891 by
the Spanish soldiers These arms were
so extremely heavy that they could not
be used without rest. They were
provided with matchlocks and were eff
fective at considerable distance.
While on the march the soldiers them
selves carried only the ammunition and
the rests. and boys bearing the muskets
followed after, like caddies on a golf
course.
Loading these cumbersome arms WAS
4 slow operation. They We're clumsy
and awkward to handle. Tie ball ami
powder were carried separately, AND
the preparation and adjustment Of the
match took 1 long time.
Before long, however, Improvements
began to be made. The guns became
lighter in construction, and the soldiers
carried their ammunition in broad
shoulder belts called bandeliers, to
which were suspended a number Of lit
tie leather covered wooden cases, each
Of which held charge of powder. a
pouch. in which the bullets were car
ried loose, and priming horn hung at
the side Of the soldier.
AS late as the time Of Charles I.
! muskets with rests were still in use,
and it was not until the beginning of
the eighteenth century that frelocks
were successfully employed.

CroutonS.

To cut bread into dice before frying,
if it is to be used as croutons, IS not
the most approved method. When done
in this way it becomes very hard and
indigestible. The bread should rather
be cut into thin slices and then stamp
ed out in circles q little larger than a
quarter or cut into squares Of about
the same size or in oblongs two inches
long and over one-half inch thick.
These tossed into hot lard and taken
out almost instantly in the frying
basket are the most palatable.

A Fools Identity.

Some Of the best known people pass
unrecognized by those to whom they

changed between the two. "Who was
that hopeless idiot that sat next to at

Of the meal That hopeless idiot was
