A LEFT HANDED ARTIST.
Leonardo da Vinci Even Wrote From
 Right to Left.

Leonardo da Vinci Even Wrote From Right to Left.
 A right handed man in making a drawing puts his shading from right to left diagonally downward. A left handed man puts his shading from left to right. This is especially no ticeable in the drawings of Leonardo da Yinci, who was left handed. In the same way q right handed man, being asked to draw spiral, naturally makes what is called left handed' spiral-th9t is. one that curves clock wise. while the left handed Iaan draws the right handed" spiral, or that which curves counter clock-wise.
 In his book, "The Curves of Life, Theodore Andrea Cook says that a Sherlock Holmes could tell from the curves of carpenters shavings whether he was right or left handed, as right handed carpenter invariably drives his plane little to the left, producing right handed screws, while the left handed carpenter pushes his plane little to the right and produces left handed screws.
 Screws and corkscrews are right hand screws unless made for some special purpose. Left hand screws can be bought from any large hard ware dealer. Coffin screws for some unexplained reason are always left hand screws. Man is naturally right handed, and it has been suggested that this may be owing to the position of his heart on the left side. So all tools and weapons have been adapted to right handed men. This Is true of the adze, plane, scythe, gimlet, auger, scissors. snuffers, shears, etc.
 The strongly left handed man will continue to use such tools with bis left hand. even though with incon- yenience, but he in whom the left handedness is not a strong bias be. comes nmbidextrous through the use of the right handed contriyances and appliances of everyday life.
 Mr. Cook mentions many customs that have arisen through the normal right handedness of man. Among these is the rule of driving to the left, which still obtains in England, Portu- gal. Sweden and parts of Austria, It. ally and Switzerland. This Is sur vival of riding days when men held the reins in their left hands in order to leave their right free to use their swords.
 The most notable example of left handed artist is Leonardo da FincL He also wrote with his left hand and wrote from right to left. So that any one who wants to read his manuscripts or the annotations on his drawings must use a mirror. This, according to MT. Cook. is the natural method of the left handed man.

A Grand Climax.

The following "reminiscences Is related
by the well known composer, ls1dore
de Lara. writing Of his opera Mes
saIine:v One night the principal bari
tone fell i'll, and the manager implored
Mr.. de Lara to take his place, as the
theater was filled with people, and to
disappoint them was out of the ques-
ton. Mr.. de Lara consented to do so,
but stipulated that he should not dress
for the part. Accordingly he made his
appearance on the stage in frock
coat, although all the other characters
wore the costumes of ancient Rome.
In the part he was playing Mr.. de
Lara had to be thrown to the ground
by Messaline's slaves. The slaves"
flung him down so violently, however
that a quantity of money which he
had in his pocket rolled all over the
stage. 1t is possible that the audience
might not have noticed this little piece
of unrehearsed byplay had not the
-'slaves" become so excited at the sight
of the coins that they left their cap
tive and rushed to pick them up with
the eagerness Of gold miners who had
struck pile of nuggets.

How Welshwomen Carry Their Babies.
The quaint old Welsh way in which
Swansea women carry their babies at
tracts every ones notice when visiting
that town for the first time. A big
shawl over the right shoulder is drawn
down to the left hip, where the two
ends of the shawl are met and held to-
gether. forming sort of pouch or
pocket. in which the baby snuggles
cozily and safely. Its weight is so sup
ported by the hip and distributed by
the shawl over the whole upper part of
the body that there is no strain at all
nor any firing of the arms. This prob
ably accounts for the upright carriage
of the Welsh mother.-London Tele-
