PRINTING Unpopular In Persia.

Type printing is unpopular in Per-
STA. The straightness Of the lines Of
tends the Persian's 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
press with movable types was set up In
Tabriz. and q certain number of books
were printed. The effort met with no
encouragement, however, and had
shortly to be abandoned. The same
taste which makes q Persian esteem
so highly the great caligraphists
makes him deplOre the absence or
character in type printed book.
What most delights him Is well writ
ten manuscript. and he takes the same
delight in the copyists work that we
take in an old master. Failing this, he
contents himself with Autograph,
which is usually facsimile OF the
writing of some fairly good scribe.

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 a particular note, are con-
nected by nerve threads, like piano
wires, with the main nerve Of hearing
"a complex and beautiful arrangement
to which we owe our power to appre-
ciate the exquisite harmonies If music.

did you hear of any one losing a
key" was a question that was put
by dozens of people during the past
week and many notices were sent to
this office for publication. After
they began coming for ID time we
began to tumble that something
was wrong. 1t appears that SON e
boy had gotten hold of the keys to
an old post Office outfit, which was
not longer in use, and had scattered
the keys broadcast about the city.
The parcel post business during
the Chris tmas holidays has swamped
the post office department and mo-
tces were sent out during the week
to the smaller offices throughout tie
country to hold back packages con-
signed to the larger cities for they
were completely swamped. The re-
suit has been a congestion OF the
business all along the line and the
department will have to provide
other means for handling the busi-
ness before another season.

Bay still open. On the Washburn
side of the bay there has not been
any ice up 10 this time but on the
Ashland side of the bay where the
water is more shallow some ice was
formed but not enough to interfere
greatly with navigation. All boats
on the have ceased running but it
was not on account OF weather
conditions for they have been ideal.
|. Berman has a. Christmas Adv.
in this issue which it will pay you
to read.
1t has been suggested that it
might be a good plar for the bust
ness men of the city to serve
another dinner for the farmers OF
this section. Last winter a dinner
was served by the business men to
the farmers and it proved to be a
fine affair and it was the means OF
bringing the business man and the
farmer closer together. Gatherings
of this kind have tendancy Of pro-
noting better feeling and should
be encouraged.

ing tobacco or cigaretts and the
