Until the proper labelling Of textiles

rhe old way of telling by feeling and

ln applying this test to fabric the
whole sample should not be burned al

containing considerable cotton 1t will
lie very difficult to determine whether
1t Is burning more like cotton or wool.
Threads should be taken from the sam
pie. several each from the warp and
the wool. and burned separately. With
very little practice one will lie able to
detect the cotton threads by the char-
icteristic manner Of burning. Some

II We could tell why Mars Is red We
might hit upon the whole secret of that

QUAINT OLD INN NAMES.
Some Of the Peculiar Signs One May
Read In England.


Man Loaded With Mischief Is the
name OF an inn In the Madinsley road.
Cambridge. but It Is not stranger than
many others. At Underwood, Notts. is
an Inn called 1.-The Toad In the Hole"
and In the neighborhood of Somer-
cotes. THE Old House at Home" An.
other inn at the same place Is called
The Old English Gentleman
1t Is a debatable point whether the
Sign of THE Man Loaded With Mis-
cher was painted by Hogarth But IL
is like his satire, for 1t represents a
man carrying a woman.
Many peculiar signs are the result
of misconceptIon. 1.-The Bag o NaIls"
In really 1.-THE Bacchanals." 1.-The Goat
md Compasses" is an ignorant shot 1T
the old motto, God encompasses us.
while THE George and Cannon" is n
modern corruption of George Canning.
who was prime minister when the inn
was built.
One Of the funniest of these corrup-
lions Is ''The Iron Devil" a corruption
Of "HlrondeIle" (swallow). 1t is said
That the Inn called THE Pig and Tin.
Ter Box" was originally THE Ele
plant and Castle" but very poor
artist was engaged to paint the sign.
and somebody said 1t looked like u pig
and finder box. and the name stuck
until 1t ousted the old one.
1.-The Plum and Feathers" an inn In
oxford. should be plume Of Feath-
ers." and 1.-The Rose Of the Quarter
Sessions" was originally la Rose DIES
Quutres Saisons." One might think
The Ship and Shovel belonged to the
same category. but 1t does not. The
reference Is to Sir Cloudesley Shovel.

admiral in the reign Of Queen Anne

A GREAT PREHISTORIC SEA.
Il Reached From the Gulf Of Mckee
Far Up Into New York.

A prehistoric sea or urn OF the ocean
which extended from the gulf OF Mex
leo far up into New York state is de-
s..ribed by tile United States geological,
survey In reporting to correspondent
on rock sample:
1.-The rock was formed very long ago.
muny millions years ago. In what &C.
ologists call the DevOnian period. At
that time IL large part of the eastern
United States was occupied BY an
urn OF the sea which extended north
eastward from the gulf Of Mexico re-
gion into New York state. The cast
ern shore OF the sen was not far east
Of the present line of the Blue Ridge
aud the Highlands Of New Jersey and
southeastern New York. and still far.
Their east lay a great continent which
extended an unknown distance into
the area now occupied by the north
Atlantic. The northern shore of the
seu was somewhere near q line drawn
from Albany through Syracuse. Roch.
ester and Buffalo. The present site
of the Catskils was thus near the
northeast end or head Of this sea or
gulf. with land not far away on the
east and north.
1.-The sea teemed with life. almost
wholly invertebrnte animals. and ma.
rine plants. and the larger part Of the
life appears to have inhabited the sea
bottom. Brachiopods, though rare now,
were very abundant then. and many
other forms of animals crawled about
or grew upon the sea floor. As the
streams washed In sand and mud from
the neighboring lands the sea grad
ually filed up, and the shells Of many
brachiopods and other shell bearing
animals were thus buried in the sand
and their forms preserved till now.
BY slow upward movement Of the
earth's crust the sen was drained from
the region. and the beds Of sand and
mud that had been hardened into sand
stone and shale were lifted thousands
Of feet above sen level to form q great
new land. The Catskill mountains
have since been carved from this up
lifted mass of rock through the cut
ting OF valleys by the streams"
