ORIGIN Of "Printcr's Dcyil."

In early days printing was styled
the BLACK art" and printers were
supposed to be in league with Sa-
tan. But it was in the time Of Aldus
Manutius. in Venice. that matters
took a serious turn. This was the
famous printer who first published
the Greek and Roman classics. He
took into his employ negro boy
who was homeless on the streets in
Venice. The people supposed the
boy was an imp of Satan and helped
in the printing. Mobs collected
about to wreck the building when the
boy was brought forward and exhib-
tied, and it was shown that he was
flesh and blood; but, he was still
called "the printers devil" ard
every boy in his position ever since
has been so called
