Seaweed L. Used as Food
Also for Healing Wounds

Many of the edible seaweeds con-
tain valuable properties such as 10
dine, iron and other useful, curative
marine salts. From the time of
Pliny EDWARDS they have been ex-
tolled for their nourishing and heal
ing powers, according to an author
ity in London Answers Magazine.
On the west coast of Ireland a
seaweed called dillisk, after being
chopped up fine, forms the basis of
stew made with shellfish, milk,
potatoes and oatmeal.
Lord Bacon remarked of the roots
of the sea holly that if added to
Malmsey wine in which the yolks of
eggs had been beaten, "such drinke
will strengthen the back" Candy
was also made from this plant in
the Seventeenth century by Robert
Burton, an apothecary of Colches-
ter.
Sloke IS a popular seaweed in
South Wales, large quantities being
consumed in the form of laverbread.
It also possesses remarkable heal.
ing powers when applied over an
open sore or cut.
Holiday-makers on most of our
coasts are familiar with bladder
wrack, the coarse seaweed which
htters the beaches after a heavy
gale. The bladders with which the
plant is studded are full of a glu-
tinous substance much used as an
external embrocation after being
stepped in spirit.

The PHILADELPHIA Bourse

The Philadelphia Bourse, organ

The Rock of Gibraltar is nearly
three miles llong, a mile wide and
1,400 feet high. A narrow isthnus
connects it with the Spanish main
land. On top Of the height of Gil
braltar stands a tower, called
O'Hara Folly, because of the belief
Of the Irish officer who built it that
from the top he could look far over
the horizon and observe the Spanish
feet In the harbor of Cadiz.
Though Cadiz is too far away to
see, the views from O'Hara's tower
are among the grandest in the
world, overlooking Europe and At
RIGA, and embracing two seas dot
ted with ships from every nation on
the earth.
The general idea of Gibraltar is
that it stands at the line where the
Mediterranean sea meets the Allan
tic ocean. Instead it is 20 miles
or more inland from the Atlantic,
being well inside the strait.
Gibraltar gets it's name from "Gi-
BEL" rock, and ''Taric," the first
Moorish conqueror, who took pos
session in III 1t had an adventur-
Gus career of sieges for about 700
years, and then was regained by
Spain in 1862.
Some years later the Moors
gained temporary possession, but
Queen Isabella, who. reigned at the
time, would not admit defeat and
took her seat outside the fortress,
vowing she would not leave until
the Spanish flag again should float
over the citadel. As she persisted
in remaining at her post, and as
the Moorish general was gallant
gentleman, he ordered the Spanish
flag raised for a short time, thus
releasing the queen from her pledge.
Later, however, the Spaniards re-
gained possession.
Sir George Brooke, English ad-
miral, won Gibraltar from Spain in
1704, taking in three days what
Spain had fought three centuries to
gain.

Britam's Constitution
Not Like That of u. s.

Great Britain does have a consti-
tuition, but II in no way corresponds
to ours. It is mainly unwritten and
customary, but its development is
marked by certain outstanding and
fundamental laws, the principal
ones of which are the following:
The Magma Charta, adopted in
1215, which secured annual parlia-
ments and the equal administr alton
of justice;
The Habeas Corpus Act, adopted
in 1879, securing the liberty of the
person;
The Act of Settlement, in l7o1,
providing for the Protestant success
sion to the throne;
The Act of Union with Scotland,
1907;
The Act of Union with Ireland |;
1900;
The Parliament Act of 1911, which
enabled the commons to pass GER
tain acts without the concurrence
of the other chamber;
The Government of Ireland Act,
1920, and the Irish Free State
(Agreement) Act of 1922;
The Westminster Act, 1881, bring
ing to an end the control once ex-
ercised by parliament over the Do
minions, and recognizing their
equality of status with the British
government and cabinet.
The constituent parts of the Brit
ish constitution describe the SOW
ereign, the legislative, the executive
and judiciary.

Early Miniatures

Early miniatures were painted on
playing cards, cardboard and pa
per. Vellume was also employed,
but ivory was not used until the
middle Of the Seventeenth century.
There are known examples painted
on canvas and linen and even the
metals-gold, silver, copper and
brass, but they are not common.
Porcelain was another material
used. Painting in oils was practi-
cally discontinued early IN the Sew
enteenth century. Water colors and
chalk were the usual medium from
then on. The first quarter of the
Nineteenth century marked the ze-
NTH Of miniature painting. 1t be-

Peafowl Devour Insects

Peafowl in addition to their beau
ty, have a certain amount of utility.
They devour snails, frogs, toads
and insects. AS they are allowed a
great amount of freedom, estates
maintaining trio seldom have any
insect trouble. They are said to be
better protection than the average
watchdog. Alert to every sight and
sound they will ''holloa" at the un-

Bear Grease Glazed Windows

In frontier cabins Of American
history, windows were frequently
glazed with paper soaked in bear
or other grease. Paper treated in
this manner, while not transparent,
is more translucent than untreated
paper. 1t also sheds water in case
of rain. Glass at the time was COM
paratively expensive, even in set
tied communities, while its trans
portation to frontier settlements
made its cost prohibitive and its ul-
innate arrival intact exceedingly

saved a second time, but that does
not take away from the value of
