In the Ex-Lbris Journal an amusing
Anecdotc Is given Of a man anxious for
a coat of arms and fortunate In finding
one. A secondhand bookseller bought
at a country sale some 300 volumes OF
handsome but unstable old sermons,
books on theology and the like.
He placed a number Of these outside
his shop. Soon afterward a well dress
ed man entered and said, Have you
anv more Of this kind Of books with
this shield on them?" pointing to the
bookplate attached, which bore the
arms and name Of good old country
family.
THAT box, sir, is full Of books from
the same house." answered the book
seller
"What do you ask for them| In
ouired the man. 'I'm going back to
Chicago, and 1 want to take some
books, and these will just fit me, name
and all. Just you sort out all that have
that shield and name, but don't you
send any without that nameplate, for
that's my name too. l reckon this old
fellow with the daggers and ROSTERS
might have been related to me some

An Inoenious Device.

When Sir Robert Perks school days
were over he entered the office or a
firm of lawyers and worked very hard'
II was no uncommon thing to find him
reading law at in the morning, and
this often after he had been working
late on the previous night. As mat
ter Of fact, he made it an inhex1bie
rule never to be IN bed Of morning
after 5. To enforce this rule he In
vented an ingenious device. This con-
sisted Of a long glass tube filled with
water nicely balanced over his mead
and attached by a string TO an alarm.
At the desired hour the bell rang ana
awakened the sleeper. If within few
seconds he did not leap from his Ded
and avert the calamity the descending
weight of the clock destroyed the bal
ance of the tube, and down poured the
water on his guilty head!-From "Ihe
