MouIds of Bronze Age.

The molds Of the latter bronze age,
were either of clay or bronze. In cast
ing swords and daggers Of bronze the
molds must have been Of clay and
been heated to dull redness at the
time when the metal was poured In
a method of casting which Is still
practiced In Japan-as by no other
means could such perfect castings OF
their thin blades have been obtained.
The castings generally were ham
mered at the cutting edges, and It
Is to this hammering, and to 1t only
that the hardness of the cutting edges
of both copper and bronze weapons Is
due, and not to any method OF tenn
pering. Much has been written about
the so-called art Of tempering bronze
supposed to have been practiced by
the men of the Bronze Age IN the
manufacture Of their weapons; the
hardness Is also said to be greater
than can be given to the bronze at
the present day. William Gowland
has recently pointed out that this Is
an error, and has expressed the opin-
lon that 1t can only have arisen oW-
ing to its authors never having made
any comparative practical tests OF
the hardness Of bronze.

Some Fish Reports.

One thousand sword fish were
caught in ten days in August by Nova
Scotia fishermen, one ship bringing in
Ave tons. AS q consequence the mar
ket was giutted, and some sales were
made rs low as two cents a pound.
Fishing Is increasing in Nova Scotia
waters to the extent that recently a
million dollar corporation, known as
the North Atlantic Fisheries, Limited.
was organized. Holland is an extern
siye exporter Of fish. especially to Bel
GUM. The latter's total imports OF
fish and mussels for the first six
months Of 1912 aggregated s1.22S,740,
an increase of sS6,S49 over the same
period last year. Imports Of fish by
weight in the first half OF this year to-
tailed 6,51s,5oo kilos (kilo, 2.2 pounds),
Dutch herring figuring at 2,536,12S
kilos. Mussels from Holland are also
much In demand in Belgium, the Inn
ports for the month Of June alone be-
Ing 1,789,017 kilos.

VICTORY FOR ITALIAN P0RTll
Woman Lawyer In Rome sIgnal!zss
Debut by Obtaining Concession
for Her Client

After q determined fight, S18norina
Teresa Labriola, professor OF philos-
ophy In the Roman university In
Rome and q distinguished leader OF
the feminist movement in Italy, has
succeeded In asserting the right OF
women lawyers to plead before the
courts. Her debut has just taken
place before the Military Tribunal,
where she defended private accused
Of having slapped his sergeant IN the
face.
The court was crowded, chiefly with
officers and lawyers, who eyed the
slim and attractive looking young
Portia with curiosity. Signorina Lee
briola wore an elegant black silk Co.'S
tune, trimmed with old lace, and q
large picture hat. She was entirely
self-possessed. Indeed, the president.
Colonel Delfino, and his fellow judges,
appeared far more perturbed than
she.
The charge was a very serious one,
and the prosecutor general asked for
an exemplary sentence-four years
Imprisonment. But after an impas.
stoned address by Signorina Labriola,
who was often interrupted by ap.
applause, the accused man got OF
with only four months. Signorfna
Labriola received the congratulations
OF the court and Of all the lawyers
present.

SET UP BOTTLES AS GODS
Burmese Natives, Relieved by "Pain
Killer" Accepted What They
Thought Was Deity

There are many people In this
country who are given to worship
of patent medicines; but 1t remained
tor the East to furnish an instance OF
actual idolatry of empty medicine bot
ties.
An American missionary came upon
q village in Burma where an epldem-
Ic was raging. Having with him a
quantity of New England pain kill
er" and thinking he might at least
allay the suffering somewhat. he
went from house to house admins
tering the remedy, and left a number
of bottles to be used after he had
gone. When he returned to the VII
lage some months later he was met
by the head man Of the community,
who cheered and delighted him by
this intelligence; Teacher, we have
come over to your side; the medicine
did us so much good that we have
accepted your god" Overjoyed at this
news, the missionary was conducted
to the house Of the head man, who
opened the door Of room and
showed him the pain killer bottles
solemnly arranged in row upon the
shelf; and before them the whole
company Immediately Frustrated
themselves In worship.

forty plants, which he will not part

First "Man Of Straw

The phrase, "a man of straw" had

nish evidence upon oath in almost any
emergency. 1t appears that persons Of
this description were accustomed to
walk openly in Westminster hall with
q straw projecting from their shoes.

ment as witnesses. Hence the expres-
sion.
An advocate who desired a conve-

to find one; and the colloquy between
the two was brief.

cate would ask. The party would
glance at the fee and give no sign,
