A RECORD LAW SUIT.

A suit In which a French woman,
Nine. Cotton, Is the present plaintiff,
is unique In the annals of long-drawn-
out cases. This lady is the legal
heiress of a goldsmith who in 1858 lent
the government of Venice 100000
crowns, the present value of which,
with il&erest, is estimated at about
100000. The heir of the original
lender was Frenchman, Jean Thier-
ry, who died before the loan was re-
paid. There was lawsuit over his
succession. and Louis XIV. claimed the
estate. and annexed the French por-
ton OF It, The suit was still dragging
on at the time Of the directory, when
Bonaparte forced Venice to repay the
loan. Since then France has been
the custodian of the Thierry estate.
The government has been sued dozens
OF times, but to no purpose Now,
Nine Cotton is suing the government
Of Austria and Italy. as well as that
OF France, because each in turn has
owned Venice.

ORIGIN OF "PLAGlARlsT."

To appropriate, that is, steal, the
literary work Of another to use it as
ones own thought, the child Of ones
own brain, is plagiarism, as every.
body knows, yet few are acquainted
with the derivation of the word or
know that the plagiarist is literally a
child-stealer. Among a certain class
of criminals in Rome in the time of
the earlier Caesars, there existed the
damnable custom of stealing children
and selling them as slaves. According
to Roman law, the child stealers, when
detected, received as part OF the
penalty for their crime a severe fog
ging, As the Latin word playa signi,
fies a stripe or lash, the ancient kid
nappers were termed "plagiari"
Is, deserving of stripes. so both the
crime and the criminals received their
names from the castigation inflicted.

HOW PAPER CAME TO BE MADE

Long years ago q Japanese walked
through his pretty garden to his
home; his hands were clasped behind
his back and he was thinking, as he
crossed the bridge to pluck fresh
wistaria blossom that hung just over
his head. This h.tle gentleman had
great many parcels to send out
from his shop every week. and he had
always wrapped them in silk; but
this was expensive material and he
needed something cheaper for his pur-
pose. All at once wasp came fitting
toward him. but he thrust It away
that It might not nip his nose. and 10!
there at his hand Was a wasps nest!
1t was made of thin wood pulp, soft
ened into thin paste by the jaws OF
the insect, then formed and left to
dry. why can't do that same
thing?" thought the Japanese mer-
chant. Get certain wood form 1t into
q pulp by means of water from the
river and make something like this
wasp's nest in consistency to wrap
about my packages" And this was
the way paper was first discovered.

WADE FRIEND
OF THE BOY SCOUTS

Catholics in the west have ANNOUNCE

troops if they wish to keep to the
front in the development of boy.

editorial in THE Sunday Watch

the Middle West
Wade in his letter says that he
has a boy who has joined the Boy
Scouts of America, but before he
permitted him to join he made a
careful Investigation II am con-
vinced," he writes. that a misun-
derstanding arose in the minds of
some of our Catholic friends from
reading the first and very incom-
plete Handbook of the Scouts,
which, to supply an urgent demand
was coped largely from the English
version and hurriedly thrown to-
yether This temporary manual con-
tanned some personal views of the
boy and his training which emanated
rom one writer, and which were not
incorporated in the final Official
handbook. An hours reading of
The Handbook for Boys, which is the

for Boy Scouts, will convince any
one of the adaptability of this move
ment to our church and will correct
many erroneous Impressions which
