The Eindinu of Omar.

1t was the late Mr.. Bernard Qua
ritch's father who published FitzGer-
aids "Omar." and, finding that the
thing didn't sell, he relegated 1t to the
penny box. Its subsequent success
was due to a fortunate accident. Two
friends of Rosseth came across the
poem and thought it worth reading.
Rosseti read it and recommended 1t
to Swinburne. What followed Swim

Aldine Editions.

The introduction of the sloping Ro-
man letters which are known to every
body as italics was made by Aldus
Manutius of Venice in the latter part
of the fifteenth century. He was the
most famous printer of Italy and per
haps of the world. The books he
printed. known as Aldine editions. are
much sought after by collectors. His
first volume in the new type was a
vergil published in 1901 at the price OF
about 2 shillings of our money. Al
dus, in fact. was the pioneer Of cheap
literature.
The Aldine mark is dolphin twined

"Aldys." II any reader. says Mr.. ]. A.

NEW FORD AUTOMOBILE
AGENCY IN BRYAN

The Brazos VALLEY Ford Co., incor-

tomobiles in Bryan, is now open and
ready for business. The new agency

EOS, Burleson and Lee Counties, with
the principal place of business and Of
flee In this city. The new company is
incorporated under the laws OF the
State of Texas, with Mr. NJ. R. Newn.
ham manager, in charge of the Bryan
office.
The company has leased as a place
of business, the brick building of the
former water and light company, and
great deal of work has been done on
same. fitting it up for an office, stor-
age room, garage and general repair
shop for the new company. This
preparatory work has now been COM
pleted and all the arrangements and
appointments are complete and well
adapted to the transaction of the bus.
mess OF the company.
A car load OF new Ford cars have
been received and are now stored in
the company's salesroom for the in
spection of the public. A full line OF
machines, both touring cars and road
sters will be kept in stock at all times,
rendering all delays and waiting un'
necessary. Another great convenience
to the public, and especially to the
owners Of Ford cars, is the large line
of parts that are now in stock and that
will always be kept on hand. Every
vital part OF a Ford car can be sup
! piled by the Bryan house, and in case
of an accident the delay in ordering
from another city will not be neces
sary: the part can be secured here and
the car 70 back into commission in
few minutes. This is indeed a great
convenience and one that will be ap
preciated by the owners of Fords.
The repair department of the Fore
garage is in charge of competent
machinist of large experience, and al
work entrusted to the company can be
depended upon to be done carefully
honestly and intelligently.

rwslfth Century Football.

In the twelfth century football In
England was game for the streets.
The chronicler of that period tells how
after dinner the city youths address
ed themselves to football" and how
the scholars of each school and the
apprentices of particular trades would
each have their peculiar ball. There
were spectators. too, in those days
enthusiastic spectators. Fathers would
come To watch their sons and become
as youthful as the youngest. their nat
ural heat seeming to be revived at the
sight of so much ability"
In later years one recalls a famous
hall game played in Hyde park. In
