English Trade-M Marks
Many Centuries Old

English legislation trending to
ward the authorization of trade
marks began in 1886. In that year
parliament provided that every
baker shall have a mark of his OWL
for every sort Of bread" This was
followed in 1858 by Edward IIPs
provision that every master gold
smith have a mark.
Under Henry V appears an ordi
nance for marking barrels; and one
of these early signs, dating back to
1920, is still used by the London
Coopers' company. By 1888 Randle
Holmes, writing of his investiga'
tions throughout the kingdom, re-
ported Chester to be full of mer.
chant marks. And shortly there.

Small Village Mother
of City of Baltimore

Far to the north on the south.
eastern coast of Newfoundland is a
little village called Ferryland, says
a writer in the Baltimore Sun. This
small, wind-blown town of some
five hundred inhabitants, is in o
way the mother of a buxom, pros.
porous daughter to the south, the
city of Baltimore.
In 1923, George Calvert, LORD
Baltimore, arrived in North Ameri-
lea with a charter which gave him
most of the island of Newfound-
land, called the province of Ava.
Ion. He founded his first colony in
the new country on the site of this
village Of Ferryland and settled
there with his family.
But finding the climate more rig
orous than he thought comfortable,
he asked Charles | for a grant OF
land north of the Potomac river
and planned to move to warmer re.
gions. His request was granted
but before the final negotiations
were completed he died.
His son, Cecilius Calvert, second
baron of Baltimore, completed the
transaction in 1882 and named his
colony Maryland in compliment t.,
the queen, Henrietta Maria.
And SO 1t was that Ferryland was
left to struggle with the bleak
winds blowing off the rugged coast
where it chung up on the hillside
But though small, 1t was wiry, and
today it still is alive, not a great.
deal larger than 1t was in the days
of Its early youth several hundred
years ago, but still sound and
hearty.

Tungsten of Great Value

Tungsten or wolfram is a metallic
element isolated by the brothers
d'Elhujart in 1888, after Scheele
had, In It'll, isolated tungstic acid.
Tungsten is not found native, but
occurs as the tungstate of iron and
manganese In the mineral wolfram
lite, as the calcium tungstate or
scheelite, as the trioxide or wolf
ram ochre, and in small quantities
In other minerals. Tungsten min
erals are almost invariably found
in tin ores. 1t Is used to increase
the hardness and tenacity Of steel
and thus improve 1t as a material
for hard tools. Coolidge has sue
ceeded In rendering tungsten NAL
leable and ductile, and at present
tungsten wire is widely used for
making incandescent lamp flaments.

Mixture of

YIddlBh has Its origin In the mi
grafton Of Jews from Germany into
Russia and Poland during the FL.
teenth century. These Jews spoke
and wrote German with facility
But In the Slavic country they were
compelled to learn a new language,
Several centuries later the descend
ants of many Of these Jews re-
turned to Germany. In each coun.
try the Jews absorbed part of the
local language which was mingled
freely with the original Hebrew.
Yiddish has an extensive literature.

Those who are supoprtery OF TIE
mule say, In comparison with the
horse, he lives longer. endures more
work and hardship, requires less at
tention and feed, and IL less liable
to digestive disorders, lameness and
disease. The difficulty Is to know
how to handle the mule because of
the fact Of a combination Of stub
bornness and willingness, temper
and sullenness, slyness and docility,
faithfulness and waywardness. The
mule must be understood, and
gently but firmly persuaded to do
things out of the ordinary.
