ACE OF SPADES TITLE PAGE
Responsible for the Custom That
Now Prevails.

In England the first act imposing a
tax upon playing cards provided that
no pack should be sold unless marked
by the stamp office to show that the
duty had been paid, one stamp being
placed On the wrapper and another on
the face of zone of the cards"
A good deal of confusion arose, his
torians explain, and as the law was
often evaded a later regulation laid 1t
down that the ace of spades should be
the duty card and that 1t should be
printed by the authorities themselves,
the makers supplying the paper. Sheets
of 20 aces of spades used to be issued
by the stamp office to the manufactur-
ers for a sovereign.
A century later an act lowered the
duty to ~threepence, and this was laid
on the wrapper supplied by the stamp
office. The manufacturers, then, of
course, printed their w aces of
spades, but the custom of having the
card different from the res still pre-
vailed, and the ace was, and is, gen
orally utilized as an advertisement for
the makers-a kind of title page as 1t
were, to the pack.

Nuremberg Settled by HessIans.

One Of the quaint spots of Nova
Scotia is the fishing town Of Lunen-
berg, where the smell of fish is over
all. Churches, fish flakes, curing plants,
steep hills, bold headlands, s~hipyafds,
skilled fishermen and a slightly fleet of
fishing vessels, oxen and German-look-
ing faces, figures and names, are the
characteristics. The place was set
tied by Hessians back in George Tvs
time, and marked traces of the early
settlers remain. The housewives are
80 neat that they even put lace cur
tainB at the cellar and woodshed
windows. A prodigious changing OF
church bells goes on In Lunenburg
every Sunday, for the place has many
places Of worship. From Lunenburg
come some of the hardest and most
skillful mariners and fishermen in the
world, while the fishing fleet and the
vessels built there have a wide repu-
tati0n.

FISH THAT PROTECT BRIDGES
Musssis Are Used Also in a Great
Many Parts Of Europe for Build
inn Sea Wallis

When you pluck 4 mussel from the
resting place it has chosen under a
weed that fringes a rock it does not
come away very easily, for the shell is
secured firmly to the rock by means
OF a mass of coarse threads.
These form the cable by which the
mussel anchors itself so securely that
1t can Withstand the force of the
strongest seas.
In Its young days the mussel moves
about with the best of them, but after
a"short spell of gadding about it set
ties down in one spot for the rest OF
It's existence.
So strong are the united threads OF
4 colony of mussels that engineers re-
sponsible for building sea walls on the
continent make considerable use OF
them, says London T1t-Bits. II mus
sells can be induced to settle on the
most exposed parts of the structure
the toughest seas will do little harm,
for they bind the stones together SO
tightly that there is no fear that they
will give way.
In England the bridge over
the Torridge at Bideford, In Devon
shir could not remain standing II 1t
were not for the mussels which hold
its foundations together.
When the bridge was in danger of
giving way many years ago a genius
had the idea of depositing boatloads
of mussels round its piles. The ex-
pertinent was tried with success and
the bridge stands firm to this day.
Fresh supplies of mussels are put
down from time to time.
