The First Wire Nail.

Although the wire nail is small
thing. it would be a big thing to do
without Probably no one could esti-
mate the millions or billions or tril-
lions whatever the number may be-
that are used in a single year. Yet
the first wire nails in the United States
were made no longer ago than 1872.
The first machine for their manufac-
ture was brought over from Dussel-
dorf and set up in Covington, KY.
Later this single machine was multi
piled by four and a company was or
ganized In 1884 the manufacture OF
wire nails was begun in Beaver Falls
Pa. and the product was already be-
ginning to grow in popularity and use.

temporarily shut off the manufacture
of cut nails, and the wire nail was in
such demand that the manufacturers
were swamped From that time dates

Number of Nails to a Horseshoe.

Centuries ago there lived a farrier,
Walter le Brun by name. whose dex-
terity at the anvil Oh the occasion of
a great fitting meeting on the banks
of the Thames was noticed by the
then reigning monarch. Edward ILL.,.
who rewarded the BLACKSMITH by
granting him sufficient land adjoining
the fitting green for the erection there
on of Il forge. AZ quit rent he had TO
present annually To the king six horse
shoes and sixty-one horseshoe nails
To the modern mind the number OF
nails would appear 10 be supertiuous
but when il is remembered that the
horseshoes of that period required ten
nails apiece it will be seen that the
calculations of Edward III. merely al
lowed one over in case of accident
Furthermore, the shoes were all to be
for the horses fore feet, from which
fact some historians draw the infer
ence that the animals ridden in the
knights tournaments were encouraged
to injure each other with their front
hoofs. -London News.

Our earliest quotation for this or for

t. is of 1888 Can any one help us
to an earlier example? No one of our
many instances throws any light upon

ture would explain "a IT, as meaning
"a L square, but to this there are va
rious objections. We have no evil
dence as yet that the name 1T square
goes back to the seventeenth century
and no example of it's being called
simply "a t. and in few if any of
our instances would the substitution
of "a Il square" for "a " make any
tolerable sense. The notion seems
rather to be that of minute exactness.
