Some old English chronicles show that the early cultivation of tobacco in England was attended with strange re- sults. In 1655 the county hangman of Gloucestershire . complained that men were so busy growing tobacco that they neither had time nor inclination for sheep stealing. The opposition of the royal Stuarts to tobacco raising in Eng- land is said to have been “for revenue only.”” It has been written that Charles II “prohibited, in order to maintain the revenue from its import duties, the cul- tivation of tobacco in England and Ire- land under a fine of 40 shillings for every rood planted with the herb, ex- cept in any physick garden for euhet" university or inany private garden for physick or chirurgery.”: In'1664 the penalty was increased to 10 pounds sterling per rood. : It i8 not generally known that to- bacco is grown in nearly every country | in the world—England, - Ireland, France, Switzerland,” “Spafn,’ " Ttaly, China, Japan, Uruguay, - Argentina, Java, and so on throughout the world except in the extreme northern and southern latitudes where the tempera- ture is. too low. There have been varlous efforts during the last ten years to revive idterest in the cultivation of tobacco in England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland. Unwitting Criticism.

FIND PLEASURE IN PAINTING Almost Every One Has at Some Time of Life Been Fond of Handling Bright Colors. Nearly everybody likes to paint. We like to feel -the paint flow from the brush and to see the dull, dirty sur- face we are painting covereldl with a #smooth, brightly colored coating, which pot only lends beauty to it, but pro- tects it as well against the destructive Jinfluences of the weather and the cor- rosive gases In the ‘air. It may be that the almost universal pleasure found in Ipainting is an inherent trait, commu- nicated to us through the centuries by ‘Our savage forefathers, who mixed pig- —ment with fat or grease and smeared bociety of the-Bethel Lutheran-ohurch {-their bodies and faces with it. Paint fs no modern invention; even white lead s of anclent origin, declares a New York Sun writer. The story is told of the wife of the famous Greek general, Xenophon, who had the habit of smearing white lead on her face and wearing high heels until her hus- band told her he thought her pretty enough as she was without the appli- cation of artificial aids to beauty. There is a reference traced back as far as the Seventh century A. D, which 1s the first recorded instance of the use of paint to cover a wooden carriage, very much in the manner prevalent to- day. There are earlier historical men- tions of the use of paint, but these refer more to slzes, such as glue, and special paints such as those made with wax and used by the Romans in admix- ture with glue to paint their ships of war. The Bgyptians used glue sizes and varnishes. The mummy cases in museums indicate that clearly and probably form the earliest examples of varnished articles in existence. USED “DOG-0IL” AS MEDICINE Fearful and Wonderful Combination Recommended for the Treatment of Gunshot Wounds. The great surgeon, Ambroise Pare, wrotea the following about the year 1540: “When I was at.Turin I found a sur- geon famed above all the rest for his treatment of gunshot wounds, into whose favor I found a way to insin- uate myself, that I might have the recipe of his balm as he called it, wherewith he dressed these wounds. And he made me pay'my court to him for two years, before*I could possibly get the recipe out.of'Bim. In the end, thanks to my gifts and presents, he gave it to me, which Was this, to boil down,”in ofl of lilies,.young whelps Just born, and earthworms prepared with ‘Venice turpentiné. Then was I Joyful and my heart made glad, that I had.Jearned his remedy.” ’ *And the London Phagmacopoeia for the year 1659 contained a recipe for “dog oll,” with the following ingredi- ents:. “Sallet oyl, two puggy .dogs newly, whelped, earthworms washed in white ‘wine and cypress turpentine Oldtime Football. Football ‘may be a rough game, but it is quite géntle and harmless now compared to what it used to be. Way bacl® in the Eighteenth century when the sport was in its swaddling clothes, the type of ball®used was not so kind to the feet of the one who kicked it. KEighteenth-century footballs were made’' of straw which was bralded until a long rope was obtained. This was then wound and coiled intg the shape desired. The finishing touch was to knock it around in water until it became hard and unyielding.

The future is a blank on which évery man can write his own name as large as he likes; the past I find already cov- ered with illegible scribbles, such as Plato, Isaiah, Shakespeare, Michael Angelo, Napoleon. I can make the fu- ture as narrow as my self; the past is obliged to be as broad and turbulent as humanity, and the upshot of this modern attitude is really this: That men invent new ideals because they dare not attempt old-ideals. They look forward with enthusiasm, because they are afrafd to look back—G. K.
