The hon. orabIe gentleman who introduced tn bill supported its adoption in a speech wherein he said that the hook and eye and the invisible de- vices that women had adopted of late years were responsible for much oG the present domestic infeli- city, and that he could trace mum erous divorce evils from the de mands of married women upon their husbands to fasten up their dresses.
 He had known women to 90 to their nelghbors for the purpose of securing aid when dressing, be- cause their husbands could not find either the hook or the eye.

An Adaptable Prodiqal.

A man who lived in Raleigh, N. C., fell heir to about $15,000 and immediately spent it in high living. A second and d third good sized sum of money came to him, and each time he played prodigal son until he was without funds.
 One day Josephus Daniels met this man on the street in Raleigh. The prodigal was in rags, looked hungry and was evidently in very hard case.
 "It seems to me that you must have tough time," said Daniels. "IIow do you stand it after the good living, luxuries and fine clothes you have been accustomed to?"
 "Mr. Daniels" the man replied, ''I'll tell you how l do it: l have made arrangements to get along without what l can't gel" t."-Satur- day Evening Post.

OUR FIRST TRUST COMPANY.
It, Like Our First Bank, Was Estab-
 Iishsd In Pennsylvania.

It was in Italy that the art of banking as known in our times was first introduced. The earliest bank established in modern Europe was that of Venice, which was founded in 1157. It originated in loan which the state raised during the great war of the republic with the Greek empire, l15G-1171.
 The bank of Genoa was founded about 15O years after the bank of Venice. Macaulay in his History of England" has partial descrip- tion of the operations of this bank, which existed from 1920 to 1798.
 Previous to the year 1894 there were only four considerable banks in Europe, but on the 27th of July of that year a charter was granted by William and Mary for establish ing the Bank of England, which for opulence and extent of circula- ton has for many years been the greatest in the world.
 The first bank established in the United States is known in financial history as the Pennsylvania bank. It began operating on July IF, 17S0, and since that time Pennsyl- vania has figured conspicuously in the banking affairs of the country. Besides being the home of the first bank in the United States, Penn sylvania has the distinction of hav- ing the first bank incorporated un- der the national banking act. Char ter No. l was given to the First National bank of Philadelphia. That state is also the home of the first trust company. In 1909 the Penn- sylvania company, corporation to write insurance on lives and grant annuities, was organized in Phila- delphia. In 1886 this institution was authorized to execute trusts. Not until 1853, however, was it | empowered to act as executor and administrator c. Jenkins in National Magazine.

 She marvcled at everything until they sat down for luncheon.

Black and White Pepper.

'It has always amused me-" re- marked a botanical expert, "to hear people talking of their preference for black pepper over white and the various explanations they give for the same. Little do they know that both black and white pepper grows upon the same shrub. Over the pepper seed grows black cov- ering. The seed itself is white, or nearly SO. To make black pepper the seed and its external covering are ground up, while the' white pep per is the seed alone ground up. White pepper is milder than black, the greater part of the pungency being in the covering. A pepper made of the covering alone would be such, to use slang term, hot stuff that it would burn the mouth. The black covering of the pepper seed contains the oil."

NUMBERING HOUSES.
4 French Architects Idea That Took .
 |: Lona Time to Mature.


 It was in the year 1512 that French architect made the sugges- tion that houses in d certain section of Paris be numbered. The idea, however, was a long time taking root, and it was not until 1789 that the system became general, writes London correspondent.
 In Berlin about decade later an eccentric method of numbering the houses was adopted. They number ed them without reference to the streets. Thus d tenants address would be described merely as, say, "1OOO Berlin"
 The numbering of houses in Lon- don, as above shown, is of compara- lively recent date. In the later Stuart times, says Macaulay, the houses were not numbered, and "thcre would indeed have been little advantage in numbering them, for of the coachmen, charmen, porters and errand boys of London very small proportion could read. It was necessary to use marks which the most ignorant could understand. The shops were therefore distin- guishcd by painted or sculptured signs. which gave very gay and grotesque aspect to the streets"
 Similar methods were adopted for identification of private houses. In Lincoln's Inn Fields, for exam pie. it seems to have been usual for the houses to be distinguished by ornamentation on the gate posts. The first instance known of a London street in which the houses were numbered is Prescott street, Goodman's Fields, but the practice did not spread far before the year 17G4, when it received great i'm petus, and it soon after became wcli established in London.-Baltimore American.

Racipo at Ascot.

Racing at Ascot dates back a great number of years, and it is recorded that Queen Anne was the first royal parsonage to patronize the fixture, in 1711. The first and second Georges were not great pa- irons of the turf, but they bred race horses on q large scale in order to encourage their subjects, ana George III. gave plate of 100 g,,ineas to be competed for. Ever since those times the great annual festival on the famous Berkshire heath has met with royal favor.

Why He Felt Happy.

"Vernon told me this morning." related the lady with the cold blue eye, "that he passed the tree where two years ago he carved your initials and his own and encircled them with heart. He says he felt so glad he almost danced for joy"

 "Yes. dear. He said some men were cutting the tree down"
