Which May Be Blown Without Effort
 by Pressing 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. Tol- erably hard work blowing a foghorn.
 Bigger foghorns for larger boats are set in box, the box containing a bel lows by which the horn is blown. Att 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 considera ble 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. a metallic diaphragm to which is con nected an electric coil which when electricity is turned into it vibrates the diaphragm and sounds the horn. Blec- tricity is supplied from a storage bat tery or from current generated on the boat if it is electrically equipped. To blow an electric foghorn you simply press button.-New York Sun. 4

Tha Presidential Salute.

One explanation of the reason for
 adopting twenty-one guns as the presi- dential salute is that there might be maintained uniformity in national salutes, Great Britain having in the distant past adopted twenty-one as the number for the royal salute. Of the many surmises as to why the number twenty-one was settled upon we men, ton two-first. that twenty one was the number of years fixed by English law as the age of majority; second. that seven was the originai salute and three times seven would signify one seven for each of the divisions. England and Wales, Scotland and Ire land. It is asserted that the United States adopted this salute to signify to the mother country that her child had reached his majoriy and was pre- pared in law to inherit the land and to this end fired the ''gun of 1776." the figures of which year, 1+7+7+6, equal 21.-Philadelphia Press.

WOOD PULP PAPER.
Forced Into Use by the Scarcity of Ras
 Stock

Forced Into Use by the Scarcity of Rag
 Stock.
 In the early days of printing it was hardly possible to employ anything Iut 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 yellowing and disintegrating effects of time.
 As the increase in the demand for printing paper grew apace it was Soon found that there were not enough rags to go round. Thus wool pulp came into use.
 All vegetable fiber is suitable HfOr paper making, whether 1t be obtained from rags, wood, espartO grass. straw or other substances. When these fbers gre torn apart they are clogged with gum, 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 beating en- zine, run at high speed. and huge stones between which the wood is re- duced to kind of pulp. That done. it is made up into paper without any pre- hminary removal of the gum or Oth- CT deIeterious ingredients.-Harper Weekly. :

"Robbino Peter to Pav Pavl. J

That proverb "robbing Peter to pay Paul" arose from the way in which the dean of Westminster was treated at the time of the reformation. As abbot he had been an independent dignitary. but as dean he was placed under the authority of specially ere ated bishop of Westminster. This di- 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. ''It was by a hard struggle" writes Dean Stanley. ''that the abbey was saved in those tempestuous times. It's dependency of the priory of St. Mar tins le 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.

The EOrmanS were Mortimer or. tO be more IDrecise. the descendants of NOrthmpn.s who had been expelled from their native Norway in conse- quHnce of an effort on their part to subvert its institutions and to make its lands hereditary instead of being divisible among all the sons of the former owner. A band of expatriated outlaws and robbers. they won and held the fair province of northern Frnme. which they named Normandy. after their native land. When they invaded England they were French mPn only in the sense that they had lived tor some generations on French soil.

The CovotA.

The coyote Is the little brother of the Indian. When the buffalo vanished from the plains the Indian shot his rife into the air. wrapped his blanket closer about him and came into the reservation to grow fat and unpictur- esque under federal auspices. When the jack rabbit and molly cottontail vanish from the plains and foothills the howl of the last coyote will sink into silence beyond the great divide. Until that far day arrives, however. hang the bacon high. for while the rab- bit remains the most skillful four legged forager the world ever knew will bay at the moon by night and just keep out of rife range by day. The coyote knows more about traps than a Canadian ''voyageur." is an expert on strychnine and never falls for the deadfall. He is rather fond of lambs and calves. but rabbits are the oat- meal of this phantom highlander. and.
 as Diamond Field Jack Davis would say. where two or three of these are gathered together there you will find
 the coyote. seeking to stow one of them into his midst" Philadelphia Tele- graph

When g Burglar Calls at Niaht.

''If burglar breaks into your house at night don't try to corner him." said an old headquarters policeman. If the visitor awakens you make noise enough 10 scare him away, but don't go after him with a gun. Ten to one he'll get you before you can hit him. It's better to lose few dollars worth of goods than your life. I'm giving it to you straight. The average man. walked up in the middle of the night. always badly frightened. hasn't a chance against the man with nerve enough 10 break into an occupied house. Every burglar is potential murderer and will shoot to kill if you try to catch him. And why not? He's got big. long term in prison staring him in the face if he's nabbed. and he'll lake il chance on murder every time to get away. Leave the capture of such gentry to the cops They're paid to be shot at: you ain't."-Kansas City Star.

Ths Witeh Finders.

Three hundred years ago the busi' ness of finding out witches was well
 established and accepted in courts ot law as highly proper. In 1ti49 it is re corded that the magistrates of New castle. England. sent to Scotland for an expert witch finder. This gifted person proceeded to show his skill by discovering fifteen witches and secur- ing their conviction. One Matthew Hopkins was celebrated witch finder of that period. 1t was easy to discover witches when you knew how. The suS- peCted person could be forced to weep and then detected by the well known fact that q witch could shed only three tears and those from the left eye. or she could be pricked with pins to dis cover the spot insensible to pain. which was sure sign of dealings with the devil. That women were far more likely to dabble in witchcraft than men was conceded. The reason was satisfactorily explained by famous German text book on witches published in the fifteenth century. It was sim ply that women were inherently wick
 ed. whereas men naturally inclined to goodness.

 An extraordinary hotel is that in the sewers of Paris. immediately be- low the Church of St. Madeleine. It was built and is conducted solely for the benefit of the sewer workers. Nearly hundred meals are provided every day, and for the sum of $2.40 a man can be comfortably housed and fed for week in this gigantic drain pipe.
