HISTORY OF The HORNBooK
Dates From the Early Part Of the
Sixteenth century-lts Advent
Into America.

The first English hornbooks APP
peared in the early part of the six
teenth century, from which period
until the reign of George II they
were common. They are mentioned
in English literature and are the
subject Of a poem by Thomas Tick
ell, a contemporary of Addison and
Steele. Shakespeare, Bunyan, Peach
am and Ben Jonson also write of
them. The hornbook was probably
brought to America by the early
settlers. 1t is alluded to in writings,
journals and so forth dated 1908,
17l6 and 1860, although scarcely
any originals exist today.
Like all copies and reproductions
Of any one thing, the editions by va
rious makers deviated. Some of the
alphabets are shown with both upper
and lower case letters and printed in
many styles Of type; some hornbooks
preserve the prayer while others
show the alphabet enlarged to cover
the whole space. Usually the letter
"a" was preceded by a cross, indi-
cative Of a pledge Of faith, and in
recollection that some of the earliest
books of this sort appeared in the
form of the cross and were connected
with religious customs or the belief
that learning led to piety. From tn
cross came the term, "Crisscros.
row." which was applied to both thu
alphabet and the hornbook as early
as the fifteenth century and Is late
as the eighteenth, although many
forms of spelling were used. Somer-
Setshire folk of England still tern
the alphabet the "Crisscross lane"

Insurance at Lowest Cost.

It goes without saying that
you want to save money on
insurance as well as anything
else. This can surely be done
in the Missouri Mutual ms. Co.'S
of Rock Port.
In the department insuring
buildings and contents there
was no assessment last year,
the policy-holders thus not hav-
ing one cent to pay.
In the department insuring
automobiles insurance has been
furnished for one-third of the
old line rate.
In the tornado company (the
Oldest company of the kind in
the state) there has been no
assessment since April LIST,
1918, and only thirteen assess
ments in twenty-five years.
In the hail insurance COM
pany, which insures crops of
growing grain against loss or
damage by hailstorm, there has
been no assessment in seven
years.
Can these records for insur-
ance at low cost be beaten?
Agents for these companies
are doing a good business, but
more agents are wanted-in
every town in Missouri where
the companies are not already
represented. For agencies write

During the fresh fruit season

zine Ellis Parker Butler tells an
exceedingly funny box's story.
1t is entitled, 'The Son and the
Father Movement" and it mar
rates the amusing adventures
which a father had with mos
quitoes, and other physical dis
comforts, when he decided to
spend the night with his small
son in order to keep on intimate
friendly terms with the lad. The
climax of the story produces a
big laugh. Other fiction is con-
tributed by Walter Pritchard
Eaton, who tells the first of a
new series of love stories; Re-
becca Hooper Eastman whose
story is entitled, "Their Second
Meeting" David Grayson, who
goes on with his serial Hemp
ield;" and George Fitch, who
writes a love story of 1921 en-

Ida M. Tarbell contributes an
other article in her business

experiences with many cele-
brities, the title of her article

er in the world; Ernest Poole
writes a a war article in which
he gives extraordinary first
hand glimpses of the Germans,
and Hugh S. Fullerton writes

"How Women Vote in Chi
cago."

latter describes "a Cold in the
Head" The Interesting People

articles and some wonderful por-
traits.

Soldiers Winter Clothing.

The soldiers Of Japan have learned
the value of paper clothing for winter
wear. The paper. which Is made from
mulberry bark. has little sizing in it,
and Is soft and warm. Between two
sheets Of the paper they place a thin
layer of silk wadding, and then guilt
the whole. 1t is something of draw
back that clothing so made is not
washable. but in a winter campaign a
soldier has other things to think Of
than the dirt on his uniform.-Youth's

YOU CAN'T RUB IT OUT

The pain of rheumatism is somethina
chat you cannot rub out Every sufferer
from rheumatism has been advised to
cub this or that on the affected part but
after all the rubbing the pain remained.
Thin blood and rheumatism come to-
gether and if they are properly treated
they will go together. One prominent
medical writer says that 'sthere is no
acute febrile disease in which an anemia
occurs with greater rapidity." Anemia
means thin blood and thin blood is some
;hiE1 that can be corrected SO why not
build up the blood until the rheumatic
,oisons are driven out?
This is exactly what is done in the
treatment of rheumatism with DIR. Will
