Oriuin of the Census.

The census probably had it's origin
in Rome. The term comes from the
high officer called censor, whose duty
it was, among other things, to emu,
merate the people. The Roman cen
sus must have. been minute and full.
since it indicated not only the number
of the people but their respective
classes, domestic positions. wealth,
etc. 1t seems that the Roman census
was taken about every fifth year The
first effort to take census in Great
Britain was made in 1901, but it-did
not extend to Ireland. The first CEN
sus ever taken in the United States
was in the year 1870, since which time
it has been taken regularly every ten
wears.
Morris tribune., 1916-11-24
The Lamo of Experience,

1t is natural to man to indulge in the
illusions of hope. We are apt to shut
our eyes against a painful truth and
listen to the song of that siren till she
transforms us into beasts.
Are we disposed to be of the number
OF those who having eyes, see not, and,
having ears, hear not the things which
so nearly concern their temporal saliva
ton? For my part, whatever anguish
Of spirit it may cost, / am willing to
know the whole truth, to know the
worst and provide for it.
l have but one lamp by which my
feet are guided, and that is the lamp
of experience l know of no way of
judging Of the future but by the past

The Spear In the Tusk.


1t seems unbelievable that savage's
iron spear point seven and a half inch
es long by one and half inches wide
has been found all grown over and per
fectly hidden in a big bull elephants
tusk. The savage had roasted up in a
big tree over a spring where the ele-
plant came for water. Then he drop
ped this spear, weighted to fifty pounds.
so as to strike the nape of the neck
and pierce the brain. Here the spear
went little to one side of the brain
and into the big open funnel end of
the root Of the tusk. broke off and then
"grOwed" up in the ivory like nail in
Il tree, The spear was found when the
tusk was carved.-Exchange

An Old DROUGHT Cure.

An old time specific for drought was
simple enough. 1t was only necessary
to burn fern. An interesting reference
to this belief occurs in manuscript
letter preserved in the Pococke collec-
ton in the British museum. 1t is dated
Aug. l, 1886. 1t runs: ITO My Very
Loving Friend. the High Sheriff of the
County of Stafford-Sr.: His majesty.
having taken notice of an opinion en-
tertained in Staffordshire that the burn
ing of fern doth draw down rain and
being DESTROYS that the country and
himself may enjoy fair weather as long
as he remains in those parts. hath COM
manded me to write unto you to cause
all burning of fern to be forbOrne."-

Rare Ben Jonson.

The famous appellation Rare Ben
Jonson' was conferred upon Ben JON
son (1574-1630, the dramatic poet. 1t
is said that soon after his death a sub
scriptiOn was commenced for the pur-
pose of erecting a monument to his
memory; but, the undertaking having
advanced slowly, an eccentric Oxford
shire man took opportunity on passing
one day through Westminster abbey to
secure at least an epitaph for the poet
by giving a mason 10 pence to cut on
the stone which covered the grave the
words 90 Rare Ben JOnson."

The Chief End of Brains.

A member Of congress, new man
and therefore not widely known in
Washington, found himself one day
in the hands of a barber of the pro-
verbally laxative sort who was en-
ployed in a Washington hosiery.
"You have large head, sir" oh
served the barber as he was trimming
the locks OF the statesman. 1T is a
good thing to have a large head, for a
large head means large brain, and
a large brain is the most useful thing
a man can have, for It nourishes the
roots of the hair.''-Youth's Companion.

The first cup of tea made in this
country was brewed on the Shapleigh
estate, in Eliot, N. H, it is said, early
in the seventeenth century. Nicholas
Shapleigh of England, rich tea deal

placed his son-in-law in command and

the new world. The son-in-law landed
at Kittery Point, and two years later
Nicholas settled in what is now Eliot.
The estate is still owned by his de
scendants.-Boston Globe.
