the most valuable tract now under pro-
cess of colonization by that company.

out by the incoming rush Of settlement

ORIGIN 0F FooLscAP PAPER.
Emblem First Made Use or by crorn- s.i to Show Ills Contempt for
 All Things Royal.

Everyone who has handled paper rec ognizes foolscap as a sheet 13 by lG inches. This is used as standard size all the world over. officially and commercially. It will therefore be in teresting to know where and how this word originated. After the execution of Charles I. Cromwell and his staff. in organizing the commonwealth, made all possible effort 10 remove every thing which had anything to do with the old monarchy. The paper in ofIi- cial use up to the time had as a water mark the kings crown: and. when Cromwell was asked what should be put in the place of the crown, to show his overwhelming dislike for anything concerning royalty, he directed fools cap to be put in place of the crown. This was done. and when Charles II. ascended the throne of England. it was at first forgotten to replace the cap by something else. and then. too late. the king was afraid to do anything to re- call things dangerous to touch. and SO lit was neglected and the fools cap may be seen as a water-mark on rear. ly all British official papers.
