ORIGIN OF FoOLscAP PAPER.
Emblem First Made Use OF by cron,-
we'll to Show His Contempt for
All Things Royal.

Everyone who has handled paper rec
ogn!zes foolscap as a sheet 13 by is
inches. This is used as a 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 to remove every
thing which had anything to do with
the old monarchy. The paper in Off
ctal use up to the time had as 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 H.
ascended the throne OF England. 1t 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
1t was neglected and the fools cap
may be seen as a water-mark on near
ly all British official papers

Well, we got all the fish on our

some circulars he had written him
self, announcing the meeting and ex-
tending cordial invitation to all to
be present. On the top of the bill the
word religious was sprawled in
big letters. Naturally anything about
religion at once appeals to Mr.. Nc
Nevins and he rushed over to the
poor religious crank with a screw
loose like hungry trout go after bait.
The religious gentleman was quick
to see Mr.. McNevins. my friend"
said the religious one, you have a
big broad chest. deep, rich voice,
and look as though you could sing
bass fine" Il don't know" exclaimed
the talented McNevins, who was feel
Ing mighty chesty at being taken for
Carusco, Il have never done any

know just what we can do until we
try" assured the gentleman who was
trying to engage Mr.. McNevins for
the heavy work in his choir Sup
pose you remain until tomorrow and
you will make good and please the
gathering" Mr.. McNevins by this
time was vain enough to think he
might be able to go some in the sing
ing line and was about to assent to
the suggestion and remain for the
meeting, but the assessor gave Mr.
McNevins to understand II he could
sing the people of Black Hawk would
like to hear him and a try-out would
be given him at home. Mr.. McNevins
reluctantly left his religious friend
to board the train for home.

SERVED AS HIS LADY'S MAID.
Romantic Manner Of Wooiny That
Won Love Of Young Russian
Widow for Her Admlrer.

A ST. Petersburg paper publishes
details of Russian romance in which
figures the wealthy and beautiful
young Baroness Urusoff, the widow of
distinguished Russian government
official
All the young cavaliers of Moscow
were hopelessly in love with her The
baroness, however, rejected all at
tempts to obtain an introduction to
her and lived in perfect seclusicn, at
tended only by an elderly relative.
Some months ago young peasant
girl began to visit the residence OF
the baroness. Offering the servants
cheap articles for sale. Subsequently
the baroness used to buy different ar
ffcles from the peasant. who was in
telligent, had good manners and con-
siderable conversational talents.
The baroness eventually asked the
girl whether she would enter her serv-
ice as lady's maid. She agreed and
discharged her duties to perfection for
a fortnight and then revealed her
SELF as young Russian nobleman
named Maximoff, who. taking advan-
tnge of his fair hair and complexion.
had masqueraded as a domestic serv-
ant to break down the barriers with
which the beautiful baroness had sur
rounded herself
The baroness was so much inn
pressed by his extraordinary perse-
verance that she became engaged to
him, and the marriage took place a
few days ago.

"Mary Had a Little Lamb"

Mary had little lamb" The poet
read the verse,
And then he made a few remarks,
and each remark was terse.
Il guess she did" he muttered, and
his face grew wan and white.
Il ought to know. for it was / who
took her out that night
Yes, Mary had little lamb,
She also had some chowdered clam.
Likewise mock-turtle consomme
And caviar from Russia way:
And then some roe and then some
shad
Were other things that Mary had
She used to be my hearts delight
But, heavens! what an appetite!
Before she finished l was stuck
Two dollars for ruddy duck;
And-possibly you think l joke
She also ordered artichoke;
And then. before the lamb came in.
Some a la Newburg terrapin;
For salad, alligator pear.
And then imported Camembert;
Spring peaches and some st-awber.
rieS-
l think that l forgot the peas,
The lima beans and spinach green.
And stuffed red peppers in between !;
The juice of grapefruit in q glass,
Three aclairs and a demi-tasse,
And salted almonds by the peck
That's what she had-I got the
check!
I'm living now on bread and jam
Since Mary had that little lamb"

Cure for Headache.

One Of the very best remedies for
sick or nervous headache was suggest
ed to me recently by Finnish serv-
ant girl. She took raw potatoes with
cut either washing or pairing and cut
them into thick slices. These were.
laid close together on the forehead and
temples and kept in place by covering
with a large handkerchief folded cor
nerwise and tied in the back.
In short time the pain disappeared.
AS the pieces Of potato get hot replace
with cold fresh ones.
They give all the GOODNESS Of ice
without the incidental dampness, and
there is not the burning sensation ice
often causes.

River Water Saves
Reservoir Supply,

Because Of the rains Of Aug. and
near Golden and other points in the
mountains the stockholders of the
Lower Latham reservoir saved be-
tween $500 and $4,000 in the six fol-
lowing days by running river wate..
Is the statement made by H. L. Low
ell, secretary fer this company.
This means, he weLt on to say,
that during those six days, when The
high river. allowed them to shut
down running from the reservoir,
1O3,6SOOO0 cubic feet of water was
run from the river instead of from
the reservoir.
The Union Ditch comrany profited
by The same storms, but othe.'s were
not so fortunate.
The Greeley-Love!and company has
been running from Lake Loveland
water steadily since July %, and,
with the Aug. Goth run, will have
used in all 245,721 500 cubic feet of
water out of total of Al feet depth
In the lake at the opening, or 629,-
3S1,622 cubic feet.
The amount of water used every
day in the irrigated district near
Greeley is amazing. From Lake Love-
land alone on Aug. 18th there was
run 8, 115,200 cubic feet. A days run
in this company is one cubic foot of
water running for "a hours. Other
companies use this as a basis.
No. ditch, which supplies large
area of land around Greeley, beenn
running water en- July 27, and will
close on Sept. Is. This company ran
1O,152,O00 cubic feet on Aug. 10, and
this figure is considered an average
run. Z
The Larimer and Weld canal and
the Water Supply and Storage canal
use the same amount or more of
water on an average, so it takes at
least 6O,000,O0O cubic feet of water
per day 20 supplement- the bitches
from July Is to Sept. Is and to grow
the wonderful crops which are annual
ly raised in this district. This totals
up 2,OOO,Ooo,000 cubic feet per month
If used continually and one becomes
lost in trying to comprehend it. Years
OF experience have proven that the
reservoir system is the only method
OF raising the most profitable crops
In an irrigated country, and while
the real sources of supply are the
rivers, and as long as there is suffi-
Client water therein the direct flow

from - to $40 per day, according to

which are owned by farmers who

amount OF water will be carried over

amount stored.
