Real Literary Crumbs. The librarian opened the book wide end shook it hard. “Looking for possible love letters and mementoes?” a visitor asked. “No; bread crumbs,” said the libra- rian. “Subsequent readers do mot mind love letters, but they do object to bread crumbs. Half the books brought back have crumbs tucked away between the leaves. That shows what a studious town we are. Our people are so enamored of literature that they can’t stop reading long enough to eat. Also it shows what a Ionely town we are. Oniy people who live alone a great deal read anything except the newspaper at meal time. And it shows what a slovenly town we are. In the intetests of hygiene gnd aesthetics those voracious read- ers who cram their heads and their stomachs at the same time ought to clean their books of crumbs, but they mever do” Big reduction sale now on on all waists and skirts in the summer, fall and winter styles at the Berman Em- porium. Woodchuck’s Name. One of the most noticeable traits of| woodchucks 13 the throwing up of| large piles of dirt in front of their burrows. It is from this practice that the woodchuck got his name. In olden times—probably in the time of Aesop —the lower animals used to live in: one happy country with a judge over One day a rabbit whose burrow adjoined that of a man mot complained to the latter that the rabbits’ eyes were, continually filled with the dirt which he threw out of his burrow. The marmot paid na heed to this remonstrance, -and the rabbit was compelled to appeal ta the judge. His honor Immediately sent word to the offender that greater care must be taken in the future. Bui the insolent marmot, notorious for his incivility and indifference, replied tq the messenger that he “would chuck” his dirt just where he pleased. That settled it. The dog has been hunting for the gross offender ever since, and the name “woodchuck” hag stuck to the whole tribe 0f marmots. —Brooklyn Standard Union.

The most ancient attempt at what is called in these days an “encyclo- pedia” was Pliny’s “Natural History.” | This old work, a very high authority throughout the Middle Ages, is really & remarkable production and well de- serves the fame that for so many ages belonged to it. Pliny, who dled in 79 A. D, was not a naturalist, a physician or an artist, and did not pretend to be the wisest man of his time, yet such was his interest in knowledge that he devoted the leisure hours of a busy public life to compiling the work which did a vast amount of good in the world and paved the way for the | comprehensive encyclopedias of the present time. Enameling. . The process known as enameling is not of modern origin. On the con- trary, it goes back to a venerable an- tiquity. If you will read up on the subject you will learn that excellent enamel is still preserved on some of the bricks that have been found among the ruins of old Babylonia and Assyria, which have been placed back as far as the seventh or eighth cen- tury B. C. Beautiful glazes were made by the Egyptians as early as the pixth dynasty. The Greeks and Ro- mans were acquainted with the art of enameling, as the museums of the world clearly show. It would pay you to visit such institutions in our owam elty. English Dogs as Beasts of Burden. Until 1889 dogs were employed to draw wagons through the streets of London as they are now in parts of Europe. Bach In His Own_Sphere.
