REASON FOR THE MUsTACHE
In Evidence as Having Been Worn by
British Soldiers as Measure Of
Military Necessity.

The correspondent who writes to a
contemporary suggesting that the
British war office authorities should
insist on soldiers being clean shaven
instead of ordering them to wear mus.
taches. might have alleged Teutonic
influence in the adoption of the mus.
tache of the British army. The idea
was first borrowed from a batch OF
Austrian officers quartered with some
of our troops on the South coast dur
ing the Waterloo campaign. 1t was
then taken up by the guards, who very
much resented any attempt on the
part of mere line regiments to follow
the new fashion. The winter cam
paign IN the Crimea led our men to
grow full boards for warmth, and
these, modified into flowing whiskers

Early v..s Of Copper.


Copper Is not a metal Of modern
utilization. It was mined and manu-
featured in prehistoric times. when it
was utilized as a material for the con-
s~truction Of utensils for domestic use
and also for implements Of war. It
has been generally supposed that the
use Of copper preceded that Of iron.
but at present It is believed by stu
dents Of the subject that iron was first
subjected to human use. In many re-
gions. however. where native copper
appeared at the surface 1t is probable
that it was worked before iron be-
cause Of the comparative ease and
simplicity of obtaining it, which in
volved no metallurgy. The Indians Of
the western United States were &C.
quainted with copper. Many objects
fashioned from 1t have been found in
mounds. Indications Of early work
ing of the Lake Superior copper mines
exist, while in Tennessee there are re-
mains of prehistoric smelling plants.
Copper was first mined in this country
in Connecticut in 1709.-Engineering

"a fur dealer told me I wouldn't
know a sable II l saw one." said a
man who had been inquiring about
pelts. Il thought, Of course, they'd be
soft, fluffy little fellows, but he says
they have a hide as fat as a rats. He
says that when the skins are taken
from the animals they r so hard
that they r placed in a tub and a
barefooted man steps in and begins
to tread on them to soften them. The
tub is tilted SO that at each step the
man takes the skins slide down the
slope and are kept moving. The man
treads for hours and hours before any
pile appears. When it begins to rise
the skins are oiled and the treading
begins again. This is continued until
the skins are as supple as channels and
the pile has become 80 high that the
fur has that soft depth and beautiful
rich gloss for which 1t is priced"
