Boston, Lincolnshire, England, are
365 steps, corresponding to the days

lara, ~ windows, and doors, repre-
senting the months, weeks, and days

senting the hours Of the day. Again,
on each side Of the choir there are

One Kind Of Exercise
Not for Modern Boy

In these days Of power saws and
new ways of heating and cooking, the
majority of boys are not getting the
Ane exercise with the sawhorse and
the bucksaw that their fathers used to
obtain, says the Salem News.
In the fall, as the old almanac
says, it formerly was customary for
the old man gently but firmly to steer
his son out to the wood pile and sug-
gest that It was needful for him to
reduce those powerful looking sticks
OF four-foot wood to kitchen stove
siEe. II was suggested, more or less
dallcately, that these youngsters had
free board and clothes and spending
money and that the least they could
% was to perform the allotted task
en- that wood pile.
It cannot be said that the boy ele-
ment took hold Of the wood pile with
willing zest. However, If the kid over
In the NEXT yard had one to reduce
also, then the spirit Of competition
came in. But on many days the old
saw would drag terribly. 1t did seem
- IL those long sticks were the very
invention of the evil one, so gnarled
and knotty were they.
However, no kid in those days liked
% admit that he was stumped or
could not do the things generally ex-
pected Of q boy. The y0ungster was
thrilled also to hear the old fellows
brag Of the very short time in which
they could saw and split cord Of
wood. He was melted to speed up a
bit himself and, as the days went by,
found himself able to do more and
more OF q stint.
1t was q fine physical exercise and
good moral discipline. Boys trained
TO cut up a wood pile usually made
good. They raised industrious families
and had a pretty good time through 1t
all

Coal First Employed
for Melting Metals

Coal probably was burned for the
production Of superheat used In the
fabrication Of metals during the Iron
age, as early as b. @. 1000, but the
first authentic use Of this fuel Ia
traced to Greece, where II was burned
In b. @. 800. These facts relating 10
the common coal Of today are pre-
sented by Malcolm MacFarlane, gem
eral fuel inspector OF the New York
Central, In an article In the railroads
magazine.
1T seems reasonable" the writer
says, Ito believe that coal came into
limited use with the discovery Of met
ais because OF the more intense heat
required to work these. On this AZ
sumption coal may have been used In
the Iron age as early as B. o. 1000.
Reports indicate that coal was mined
quite extensively in England during
the Roman invasion, but the earliest
reliable record Of its use there Is In
A. ID. S52."
After tramping unconsciously over
the enormous beds or coal In the AIle-
ghenies pioneers of America discov-
cred the first bed of coal on the nIi-
nois river at ottawa In 1879. But
nearly another century passed, says
Mr.. MacFarlane, before actual min
Ing began, and then 1t was In Vfr-
ginia, at a point u miles above Rich
mond, on the James river. This was
In 1850. During the next % years It
came into general use In that region
and made possible the manufacture Of
cannon for Washington's army-De-

ForIiesf Watches

In 1477, Peter Hele, a clockmaker Of
Nuremburg, made clock In the form
of an egg, which could be carried In
the pocket. This production cost a
years labor. rendered its makers
name immortal, and. in It's age, was
accounted one Of the wonders OF the
world. And yet it required winding
twice a day and varied an hour q day
from the correct time.
Hele probably invented the fasee
spring. but the hairspring was the In
vention OF DR.. Robert Hooke, an Eng
gIishman, In 1858, and Hooke was also
the first to use a lever escapement, In
1885. The use. Of jewels for the gear
ing Of the pivots was introduced about
100. and the compensation balance
was invented in 1857.
