story goes that while in his apprentice
ship to an older artisan he came TO
learn everything his superior knew, ex-
cept the exact temperature of the
water used in tempering. Finally, able
to endure his situation no longer, he
stole to the forge one day when the
master was working alone and pre-
pairing to temper finished work of
high quality. Rushing in, the younger
man thrust his hand into the water,
only to have it cut off by the irate
employer.

Shrewd Business Men often Waste
Thousands of Dollars in Ma king
Collection of Books.

man, shrewd, far-sighted. having
evolved a career and a fortune out of
tested and exact training, will take
up book collecting and plunge into it
to the depth of thousands of dollars
on the strength of more puny ac-
quaintance with the subject than he
would bring to bear on the purchase of
a necktie.
A senator commissioned book
dealer to supply his shelves with stand
ard sets. the only proviso being that
books and space should come out even.
A lady signed contracts to the tune
of many thousands for what was rep
resented as a set of first edition Dick
ems in de luxe bindings, only to dis
cover after she had paid more than
half that the books We're late editions
and the bindings stuffed paper. The
dealer is now about half through
genuine edition of a prison cell.
man unfamiliar with language
paid several hundred dollars for a set
of Italian novelists in translation be-
cause he wanted to read the stories
that went with some very daring illus
trationS only to find that the conclu-
sion of the liveliest anecdotes slid into
French.
I suppose to the average normal
mind there is no folly quite to equal
that of paying a hundred dollars for
first edition when a later and bet
ter edition cries at one from the %
cent stand, writes Stanley X. Wilson
in the New York Sun. That the fact
of a mistake in the pagination of the
"Eikon Basilike"-the transposition of
one bracket or fgures-enhances by
many dollars the value of the book
seems to US too fantastic for belief.
That a collector will cheerfully give
for Dickens christmas Carol with
the "Stave T. double what he will pay
for the "Staye One" issue, both first
editions, would appear to qualify that
collector for blank page soiourn in
an asylum. Yet these are among the
mournful manifestations of the dis
eaSe.-Stanley X. Wilson in New York

Population Of the State.


After the census of 1910 was taken
a calculation was made of the ratio OF
children Of school age to total popu-
lation in each town. and, using this
percentage. it is possible to figure out
almost exactly the population OF any
town now by taking the enumerated
school children and then figuring from
that.
By this calculation, which has been
proved very nearly correct when test
ed by official censuses, it appears that
the population OF the state in Septem-
Der last year was 1.4l0.ls3 against
I.ll4.756 in 1910 In this period
bridgeport has shown the greatest
gain. rising from l02,054 to l52,524, a
gain OF 5O,470. While the state has
increased at about 20 per cent, rate,
Bridgeport has increased at practical
Nv so per cent In numerical increase
Hartford stands second. Having been
set down in the 1910 census at the
ridiculous figure of 9S.sl5, it shows by
these figures OF 1917 population OF
129. 1853, an increase of 3o,4SS. Some
of the larger places. with their popu'
lation. are as follows:
