As nearly as can be ascertained it 8 a hundred years since Napoleon 3onaparte’s soldiers introduced the >M-new style of leg wear which speed- 1y secured recognition as the distinc- lively masculine garment of civilians ‘hroughout two continents. In 1814—the year before Waterloo —it was related as a current news Item of some importance that- the great duke of Wellington had been re- [used admittance to Almack’s in Lon- don, because he presented himself wearing trousers instead of the con- ventional breeches which the dress regulations then in vogue demanded. As a matter of historical fact trous- ers have been worn by various races and by both sexes in all the ages of which any authentic records exist. Generally speaking, trousers were re- garded in ancient times as symbolical of inferiority or effeminacy. In the triumphal processions of the Caesars, for example, prisoners of war wore them as a sign of defeat, while the sturdy legs of Roman’s victorious le gions were bare below the bottom of the skirted or kilted coat of mail. For the last hundred years or there about trousers have been widely rec ognized as the garments of authority, the outward and visible sign of the stronger sex, says the American Tail or and Cutter. But that position has not been won or maintained without a struggle. Many attempts have been made to trample dewn the tyranny of trousers, as their rule has been called; many times has their superiority been challenged. But so far their position remains secure. BEER BARRELS IN WARFARE Used in English Army Maneuvers for the Construction of a Foot Bridge. “The way they have in the army” of getting across country, despite fire, hail, snow and vapor, was illustrated by a fine piece of handy-man work during field training at Aldershot, Eng- land, recently. The Third Infantry brigade found it- self obliged to retire. The enemy were too strong in front. Unfortu- nately, however, the Basingstoke canal stretched behind them. This was the chance the Second Essex had been lorking for. They commandeered hay from a neighbor- Ing stack, lashed it into five-foot square bales, wrapped these in tar- paulin wagon covers, and moored the completed articles like rafts in the wa- ter. Planks stretched from one to the other enabled the whole battalion to |cross. over in single file. Meanwhile the Second Middlesex, not, to be beaten, borrowed half a doz- en empty beer barrels from an inn and made’a light foot bridge. The Somerset Light infantry find- Ing plenty of cut timber in Pyestock wood, made a fairly substantial tres- tle bridge in less than two hours, across which all the vehicles of the brigade were passed, the battalion fol- lowing in fours, The Second Border regiment also (constructed a light barrel bridge, and the whole brigade crossed the canal, thanks to their handy men, without mishap, the rear guard destroying the bridges. Maine’s Greatest Crop. The total sale of the Aroostook po- tato crop of 1911 is estimated at be- { tween 14.000,000 and 15,000,000 bush- els, leaving betwen 2,000,000 and 3,- 1000,000 bushels that were sent to the starch factories, used for seed and food purposes here in the country or lost. It is figured that for crops Isold the average price fas over $2 a barrel. This means that Aroostook received for the crop of potatoes which it raised in 1911 between $1,650.000 and $1,800,000. The exceptionally Igood year has encogaged the farm- jers, and their plans show that therg | will be no shrinkage of the acreage this season. It will not be increased, however, to any appreciable extent. i Most of the Aroostook farmers be- lieve that the time has come to stop Increasing the acreage and to devote { themselves to the problem of secur- ing further increase of the yield an acre. New Coal-Carrying Vessel. An improved type of coal carrying vessel has just been launched at Blyth, Newcastle, England, which, in { opirion of experts, will begin a new L era in the building of cargo ships. The i vessel is comstructed on what s known as the “arch” principle, which, it is claimed, offers important advant- ages over boats of the ordinary type, , with a dead weight of 3,100 tons and i araft of 18 feet 4 iaches. It is as- serted to be the fastest collier built and it will be used for coaling pur- | poses in connection with the British | fleet. Smaller capital outlay, cheaper | maintenance, and increased rate of | speed are among the favorable fea- | tures claimed for the vessel. Artistic Birds" Nests. For true art, one mnst look for the vireos’ nests. They are of the most exquisite workmanship and really lovely to behold. They are woven B0 carefully and compactly that the tempests seldom dislodge them. The little masses of lichens, plant down and vine tendrils, looking for all the world like baskets hung from the | crotches of trees, and nearly always well concealed by leaves, are prob ably as safe depositories for eggs as can be found in the bird world.
