AS one steps before the wide

the case may be, the host ap-
proaches and greets with a low bow,
followed by the hostess and usually
one or more of the maids, who,
kneeling, bend to the floor. The
salutations are returned, word is
exchanged perhaps about the rooms
or the meal that is to be prepared,
and the guest seats himself on the
low porch or platform that sur
rounds the entrances and removes
his shoes or sandals, leaving them
on the ground. II one wears the

WkTERK
They Are Stamped IN the FaSsr By
Patterns Of Wire.

NFHcs
The discovery Of the watermark
was the result Of an accident, prob
ably a thousand years ago. Parch.
ment was then made Of vegetable
pulp, which was poured in liquid
state into a sieve. The water drip
ped out from below, and the thin
layer of pulp that remained was
pressed and dried. When dry it
was found to bear upon it the
marks of the fiber that composed
the bottom Of the sieve.
These fbers seem to have been
twisted reeds, and the mark they
left on the parchment took the
form of wide lines running across
and across diagonally. In those
days the watermark was regarded
as a blemish since the fiber was
thick and coarse and the deep i'm
preston made on the paper proved
drawback in writing.
The quill of the scribe found
many yawning gap to cross on
the surface of the manuscript
~switchbsck scripture" it has been
TERMED. But when wire was sub
stituted for fiber in the sieve, says
q writer in the Denver Republican,
the lines of the watermark grew
thinner and less conspicuous.
The possibilities Of the useful
ness of the watermark became sp-
parent by degrees. 1t was first
found to be of service in preventing
the forgery of books and manu-
scripts. Many bogus copy Of q
rare work has beer detected be-
cause the counterfeiter failed Ia
take into account the watermarks
Of the original.
The watermark of many a pre-
cious manuscript in the worlds mu.
seums is alike its glory and it,
safeguard. And in the sphere o1
bank notes and paper money every
where the watermark is most use
full in protecting the notes from
Imitation.
The term waterman" is in re
Atty a misnomer since the mark
is actually produced BY wire. Wire
Is fashioned into the desired pat
tern, figure or lettering. This il
inserted beneath the sheet in the
last stages Of its manufacture and
while the paper is still capable oi
receiving the impression, and the
wire device stamps itself into the
sheet.
Ordinary note paper held up to
the light reveals hundreds Of par
allel lines running up and down,
betraying the fact that the paper
was made on a wire foundation.
To this the paper owes its smooth
ness and it even texture.
