PRINTING Unpopular In Persia.

Type printing is unpopular in Per-
STA. The straightness of the lines Of
tends the Persians artistic sense, and
he feels that In printed books the char
acter of the letters Is lost. Persia Is
today entirely dependent upon lithog-
raphy for its own production of books
Naturally these are very rare. At the
beginning of the nineteenth century a
press with movable types was set up In
Tabriz, and certain number OF books
were printed. The effort met With no
encouragement. however. and had
shortly TO be abapdoned. The same
taste which makes Persian esteem
so highly the great calligraphists
makes him deplore the absence of
character In a type printed book.
What most delights him Is well writ
ten manuscript, and he takes the same
delight in the copyist's work that we
take in an old master. Failing this. be

which is usually facsimile of the

IN other sections OF the district, he was
doubly thankful for the support he had

Especially gratifying to him was the
presence on the stage the present mayor
OF the city, and OF other representatives
OF opposing parties.
Throughout Mr.. Peters spoke with in
tense feeling. His plea for peace and his
assurance that he now represented not a
faction, not party even, but the people
OF the whole district, were received with
evident satisfaction.
Mr.. Peters address closed the speech
making. An informal reception followed,
and then dance, the grand march being
led by Mr.. and Mrs. Peters.
The Ellsworth band furnished the out
door music; that for the dancing, which
was kept up until late hour, was fur
nished by Monaghan's orchestra.

Our Musical Nerves,

Everybody who has been to the den
lists knows only too well that the
teeth have nerves connected with them.
These nerves lead to certain knots OF
nerve tissue called ganglia, from which
also proceed other nerves that pass to
the auditory chambers of the ear. II
you grind your teeth ever so slightly
you will find that you hear the sound
very distinctly. The vibrations caused
by grinding are conveyed to the audi
tory chamber. where a series Of prya'
mid cells of varying lengths are so ar
ranged as to operate like keys of a
piano These cells. each of which re-
spends to particular note. are con
nected by nerve threads. like piano
wires, with the main nerve OF hearing

DIARY OF FATHER TIME
The distinct characteristics of the
Russian people in the 18th century
were drunkenness, endurance of
heat, cold and torture, and slavish
obedience to the TsaT, drunkenness
in particular. The habit went the
farther since it was encouraged by
the government and it was an Offense
against the state to urge a man to
leave one of the state-Owned taVeTns,
even though he was pledging the
clothes off his back, a common GUS
tom. At every season of public re-
jOicing in winter two or three hun
.dred died in the streets of Moscow
as they lay there naked and dead
drunk, and the bodies might be seen
brought home by tens and tWelVes
half eaten by dogs.
remember on one occasion seeing
a muscovite come out of the tavern
in shirt and breeches only, meet a
friend, return, and come out again
with no shirt. A traveller, who knew
Russian, expressed sympathy with
him as if he had been robbed, but
was answered, ''No, it's the man at
the bar and his wine that have
brought me to this, but as my shirt
is there my brooches may as well
keep it company" And, accordingly,
a few minutes afterwards, he came
out once more with nothing to cover
him but handful of flowers. picked
at the tavern door.
