The First Universities.

To fix precisely the date Of the rise
of the first universities is impossible
for the reason that they were not
founded. but grew. They were started
by a few able men who had something
they wished to teach and youths
wished to learn. Gradually the free,
voluntary center of learning became
the organized affair we know as the
university. Among the earliest OF
these centers of learning were Saler-
no. Naples and Bologna. Italy being
the first land to experience the literary
revival. We may say that Salerno
university was fairly established by
the year 1000, the University of Bo-
logna by 1160 and the University of
Naples by the year 1900. The Uni
versity of Paris. which owes its ex-
istence to the genius Of Abelard, was
founded about the same time.-New

metal is subject to a remarkable kind
of alteration, a species Of disease to
which it is liable. When exposed to
the air tin undergoes no chemical
change. as do iron and copper. which.
of course, chemically combine with the
oxygen or with water. The tin, how
ever, still remains metallic tin. but
gradually becomes gray and dull and
falls to fine powder.

were found. a consignment of Banka
tin sent from Rotterdam to Moscow
In 1877 arrived at the latter place In
the form of powder. This alteration Is
due to change in the internal crys-
talline structure of the metal and is
analogous to the slow transformation
of monoclinic sulphur to rhombic sui
phur. AS a result, objects of tin of
archaeological interest are rare. Those
that have been found have been In the

The summer visitor in a small sea-

the assortment of merchandise display
ed in the little store at the head Of the

an assortment of candy at one end and
q lot Of cigars and tobacco at the 9th

to the showcase stood motor engine
valued at several hundred dollars.

After a little pause he continued:

will be no mother to scold her from

her for not doing half his work, and
no little brother to make enough noise

ROOTS THAT NEEDED SOAKING
Pat at Least Told the Exact Truth In
His Application for
Whisky.

The town Of Dedham is under pro

permitted to sell alcoholic stimulants
The other day son of the Emerald
Isle entered drug store there, and
taking bottle from his pocket, asked
for quart of whisky. The salesman
asked to what use it was to be put
and the reply was:
ITO soak roots in it."
The order was filled, and the clerk,
after handing over the bottle and its
contents, inquired, in a conversational
manner:
What kind of roots are you going
to soak?"
Pocketing the bottle, the customer
said:
"The roots of my tongue, be jabers!"

the one concession to civilization, because you
might have to. camp where you could not get the
right pole and because you cannot we'll carry

should be carried in a bag or bundle, without
single box or hard package bigger than your fry
ingpan and kettle. The Indians would not have
dragged their teepee poles around with them had
they been able to get fresh ones at every camp.
Tent pins you can get in metal; but while they
are compact they too heavy for carriage so
these you must cut afresh
In size your peaked top tent need be only
about seven feet square to accommodate two or
three persons. The fly will make storeroom,
if necessary. These canvases will make into

camp without any tent at all, if you like. The
writer and friend once spent night in the Vel
loWstone park in winter, when the thermometer
was 26 degrees below and had no tent
only a strip of light canvas. We dug a hole in
six feet of snow and kept fire going all night
That sort of thing is cold work. though tent
would not have helped much. The trapper
who sometimes covers hundred miles on his
line of traps, has leantos or log novels with open
fronts, so that he can keep fire going in
he has not cabin or tent with a stove. Even
a good log fire does not offer complete comfort

cold weather and snow in camp and against rain
you must have sort of roof. Bark and
boughs sound we'll. but are hard to get into
practical roofing shape.
Your bed ought to be good, for if you do not
sleep comfortably you cannot enjoy yourself or
do your work. A good bough bed is difficult and
slow to make, although most writer's pirate about
it learnedly. Again. hay or straw may be mpos-

Certainly not for any old-timer. good pair of
real wool blankets, weighing in the neighborhood
of II or IL pounds, heavy cotton comforter and
a long strip of wide canvas to roll it all up in
tight and snug and dry, and you have cow
puncher's bed, the best outdoor bed ever yet in
vented, and good for any weather
Observe, especially, that this canvas, which
folds in over your folded bedclothes, keeps out
the dust and the rain. Your bed should be clean
and it must be dry. Roll it tight and compact
and tie it snugly when you move camp.

wealthy folk who have long been accus-

the conversion of these lovers of their
