HolU Policeman Came
by Nickname Cooper

After a century or so of sup
preston in London the story has
leaked outflow a policeman came
to be called a copper" or "c0p."
Twas evening, ali, bitter chill 1t
was, and the policeman was court
ing a cook. He was devouring q
feast Of pie and ogling his buxom
darling when her mistress was
heard approaching. 'Ide! Tide !"
was her smothered cry Of dismay.
He hid in the only refuge he could
see the huge copper laundry vat.
Alas! It seemed the mistress had
come to order the fire lighted be-
meath that very vat, that she might
have some hot water. Forced to
comply, sthe cook soon saw her
brave lover leap out and with one
tense backward look Of reprOach,
vanish into the night.
Ages ago that lover fled into the
storm, but still the ghost Of his
scared romance follows him and he
must answer TO the name of "cop-
Der."

Ancient CUBAN Fl es
for A7,er.ca7 E or7cs

Curio dealers of Havana are uc-
quiring old Spanish art tiles to
supply the demand in the United
States. AS each old house is torn
down, the bidding for its art thing
is active. although there is nearly
a 80 per cent loss in breakage-
the tiles having been so long ce-
mented to the walls that they have
become as brittle as porcelain.
The Spaniards and Cubans have
always been fond of thing, and
their residences are often faced
with geometric designs in vivid
colors, strongly reminiscent Of the
Moorish influence on Spanish art.
The tiles may represent hunting
and marine scenes, mountaii Wis
tas, battles, sieges and religious
subjects. One set depicts impor-
tant passages from the Bible and
gives the text from which they are
taken. These tiles were taken
from Holland by the Spaniards
during their occupation of the
Netherlands, and after several CEN
turies' use in house in Madrid
crossed the Atlantic to Havana.
American visitors to Havana
purchase, besides the tiles, much
Spanish bronze, copper and beaten
brassWare. Cuba was at one time
rich in such curios, but the supply
has been practically exhausted, so
that the dealers now spend their
summers in Europe to renew their
stock. Spanish glassware is an
othel fad of the visitors. The old
er pieces offered for sale are ex-
tremely beautiful. When Carlos
III ruled Spain he imported hum
dreds of glass workers from the
Capa di Monti factory at Naples,
and the delicate products of these
craftsmen is today highly valued.
