"Robbinq Peter to Paw Paul"

That proverb "robbing Peter to pay
Paul' arose from the way in which
the dean Of Westminster was treated
ut the time of the reformation. As
abbot he had been an independent
dignitary, but as dean he was placed
under the authority Of II specially ere
ated bishop of Westminster. This d.
ocese after existing for ten years was
merged in the see Of London. and
many of the domains of ST. Peters
abbey passed into the hands of the
chapter of st. Paul's cathedral. thus
giving rise to the now familiar saying.
at was by a hard struggle" writes
Dean Stanley. that the abbey was
saved in those tempestnous times. Its
dependency of the priory of St. Mar
tins lie Grand was torn TO pieces. and
its outlying domains to the east of
Westminster were. it is said. sacrificed
to. the Protector Somerset to induce
him to forbear from pulling down the
abbey itself."-London Chronicle.

ELECTRIC FOGHORNS.
Which May Be Blown Without Effort
by Pressing a Push Button.

Which May Be Blown Without Effort
by Pressing a Push Button.
The time honored foghorn and still
the one in most common use on myri-
ads of smaller boats Is of the sort that
you raise to your lips and blow. Toll
erably hard work blowing a foghorn.
Bigger foghorns for larger boats are
set In a box, the box containing a bel
lows by which the horn is blown. At
tached to the bellows Is an outside
lever by means of which the bellows
Is operated by hand. A lot Of noise
this foghorn makes, to be heard for a
considerable distance.
There are now made, used on many
power boats and yachts, electric fog
horns the operating of which calls for
the exercise of neither lung nor hand
power. In these horns there is at
tached, inclosed at the smaller end, q
metallic diaphragm to which Is con-
nected an electric coil which when
electricity is turned into 1t vibrates the
diaphragm and sounds the horn. Elec-
tricity Is supplied from a storage bat
terry or from current generated on the
boat If 1t is electrically equipped. To
blow an electric foghorn you simply
press a button.-New York Sun.

Books on a Shelf.

Books are frequently ruined through
carelessness. This is less in the han
ding often than upon the shelves.
Books should not be packed tightly
on a shelf. 1t ruins the back and
causes them to tear loose with the
strain Of getting in and out. Often it
forces the leaves to sag to the shelf
when pushed unduly. 1t is just as bad
for books to be too loose on a shelf, as
they warp, and the spreading leaves
encourage dust. A bookcase with the
contents at every angle is not a pleas.
ing sight. There are some housekeep-
ers who think a yearly busting of the
books at housekeeping time sufficient.
This is bad enough when they are
kept under glass; when on open
shelves 1t means ruin to valuable
books. 1t takes n little longer to dust
the backs and tops Of books on each
shelf every day. Use a soft cheese
cloth or silk buster and shake It fire.

WOOD PULP PAPER.
Forced Into Use by the Scarcity Of Rag
Stock.

ToTSeu INTO Sso py INC oCdrcitJ OF nag
Stock.
In the early days Of printing it was
hardly possible to employ anything but
first class paper In making books, for
the reason that wood fiber and wood
pulp paper had not then come into
use. At that time good cotton and
linen rags were turned into fine, firm,
pure white paper, well able to with
stand indefinitely the following and
disintegrating effects of time.
AS the increase in the demand for
printing paper grew apace 1t was soon
found that there were not enough rags
to go round. Thus wool pulp came
into use.
All vegetable fiber is suitable for
paper making, whether it be obtained
from rags, wood, esparto grass, straw
or other substances. When these fbers
are torn apart they are clogged with
gum, n substance that must be thor
oughly dissolved and washed away by
chemicals If the best results are to be
obtained.
Wood pulp paper is made Of finely
ground wood, usually spruce, the
grinding being done with a beating en-
CINE, run at high speed, and huge
stones between which the wood is re-
duced to a kind Of pulp. That done, it
is made up into paper without any pre-
liminary removal of the gum or 9th
