celts Discovered Soap.

Soap appears to have been discover
ed by the Celts, for the name is de-
rived from the Celtic word 'sebon."
1t seems strange that such early wan
derers should have been familiar with
soap, but If they had the name they
must certainly have had the article it
stood for. Moreover, it is quite con-
ceivable that nomads using wood fires
could accidentally discover soap. All
woods have q certain amount of min
eral salts, chiefly those of potash, in
their fibers. After burning these are
left in the form of carbonate, which a
heavy shower of rain would dissolve
into liquid I've. wanting only the
grease from an overturned caidron of
broth to form soap. A dash of natural
curiosity on the part of the woman
who cleaned up the mess would reveal
the cleansing properties of the new
substance.--London Mail.

Four Rules for Right Reading.

A hint to readers that will, perhaps,
prove far more helpful than five foot
bookshelves and pigskin libraries, is con.
tributed by Laura Spencer Porter to the
February Woman's Home Companion.
Let us take Gibbons practice" she
says, "as a valuable first rule, measuring
our own ideas, our experience, our knowl-
edge, or, it may be, our ignorance of the
subject of any given great book.
And as a second rule, let us find out
from some good reference book or biog
raphy the main facts about the life of
the author we are reading and something
about the times in which he lived
AS third rule, let us make notes on
all that we read seriously, notes, / mean,
as we go, for it is but poor fattery to
let friend do all the talking and to
make no comment on what he says This
practice Of making notes is, do believe,
very essential to right use of books. /
know there are those who think it bad
thing to mark a book; but to have too
nice an eye in this matter is to value pa
per more than friendship. Let us mark
especially the places that give us fresh
thought, stimulus, pleasure; let us mark
those with which we agree and those
with which we disagree, stating our own
views clearly.
"As fourth rule: just as soon as we
feel that we know even two or three
great books let us compare them with
each other Very much as fine people
agree on fundamentals so we shall find
these great authors agreeing, as rule,
in essentials, yet all expressing them
selves how differently. Moreover, it is
just in these differences of expression
that the main distinctions of style lie,
and it is in noting them carefully that |
we shall better appreciate the personal
ity of a writer. Read Stevenson's dis. |
course. for instance, on Grabbed Age and |
Youth and compare it with Bacon's com
pact essay, OF Youth and Age How in |
the very wording and manner of speak
Ing the two men seem almost to appear
before one."
