SOCIAL ANNOYANCES. > at Similar In the Tenth Cen- tury to What They Are Today. That there were objections in the so- ©fal amenities of life in the tenth cen- tury similar to those observable at the Present day is shown in a remarkable book, “Makura no Zoshi,” which was ‘i the work of Sei Shongon, a poetess of .. the ancient Japanese court. One of her chapters she devotes to ‘*‘Detestable Things,” and these.included: ™A visitor who sits down to regale i " R § i An Obstinate Family. $ 2y 3 INSECT INVENTORS. - ; | Oholmondeley—I thought you intend-| * Question of CréliiL 3 — ‘ - od to marry Miss Wealthington?

The Custem Is an Old One That De- veleped Rather Slowly. ~ The custom of indexing books devel- 1 oped gradually. Cicero used the word | “index,” but in the sense of a table of i« contents. Seneca provided some works ‘. 'which he sent to a friend with notes of particular passages, “so that he who * enly almed at the useful might be *. spared the trouble of examining them ‘entire.” This was at least a partial “index” in the modern sense. Anno- " = tated, or at least explanatory, tables of contents seem to have preceded the in- dex proper. Buch tables followed the order of ap- Pearance of the subjects in the book it- “@elf. Alphabetical arrangement, which ' Was the beginning of the real index, “The bee makes a wax that we can- not imitate. - “The silkworm is stil] the unrivaled manufacturer of silk. “To these we might add the ant, which makes tunnels and subways; the mason bee, with its cement work, and the great peacock moth, which calls its kind from a distance by wire- less telegraphy. But to complete the story we should have to reprint Henrl Fabre’s books.” First Nat'l.

The exile of Longwood absolutely be- queathed 10,000 francs to a fellow called Cantillon, who had been tried in Paris for an attempt to murder the Duke of Wellington. The man was still surviv. ing in Brussels when Napoleon III. came to the throne, and Cantillon was duly paid his legacy. Tio A S'Bom B. ORM ci GUY V.
