Baca to Which Discarded Boota aaS Shoes Are Pal. Old boots and shoes of leather are cut up Into small pieces and then are put far two days Into chloride of sulphur, the effect of which Is to make the leather very hard and brittle.

It 1_ then mixed with some substance that wlll cause it to adhere together, snch as shellac or other resinous material or even good glue, and a thick solution of strong gum. It Is afterward pressed into molds to form combs, buttons and a vnriety of other useful objects. Prusslate of potash is also made out of old leather. It Is heated with pearl ash und old iron hoops In a large pot. The nitrogen and carbon form cyanogen aud then unite with the iron and potassium.

Although Mr. Hobbs wus taken at ills face value by his son aud heir, there were times wheu tlie youthful ���William's admiring tributes embarrassed his parent In the family group. "I had quite an encounter as I came home tonight," the valorous Mr. Hobbs announced at the tea table. "Two men, slightly Intoxicated, were having a quarrel ou the corner. As usual, then was no policeman In sight, and they were In a fair way to knock each other's brains out when 1 stepped between and separated them." I "Weren't you afraid, father?" asked Mrs. Hobbs in a quavering voice. "No, indeed! Why should I be?" Inquired Mr. Hobbs, inflating his chest. "I guess there Isu't anybody could knock any brains out of my fatherl" said Willy proudly.���Youth's ConipaB- ton. Our Debt to Ancient Qreece. Greece and Rome were at the opposite poles of the human world, and equally opposite are their influences upon modem times. Home was practical, bard headed, juristic, while Greece was intellectual, emotional, artistic, abounding in what may be called the forebraln versus tbe brain behind the eats. Rome's empire was lengthy, material, matter of fact, while Greece banked on the intellectual ami spiritual, finding her greatest conquests In the realm of mind rather than In that of matter. Home produced no great original thinker, her greatest men shining, like the moon, by borrowed light- light reflected from the sages of Ath7 ens. Koine taught men law, order, obedience, but the mother of Ideas and sentiments was Greece. From Ihe Eternal City we have inherited our jurisprudence, but it Is from the City of tbe Violet Crown that we have derived our art, science and philosophy. In n word, to quote the substance of Dr. Johnson's saying, eliminate from our modern civilization all that it owes to Greece and the residue would be barbarism.���New York American.

A teacher in a certain fourth term class at Erasmus Hall High school was explaining to her pupils the significance of the German prefix "zer." The English equivalent is "to make smaller," she explained. "For instance," she continued, "the word *brefhen' means 'to break,' while 'zer-brechen' means 'to break into smaller pieces,' or 'to shatter.' "Now," she concluded when she believed that she had made her pupils understand, "can any one give me another example?" Promptly from the rear came a voice in low, hurried tones: "'Sprechen,' 'to speak' or 'to talk;' 'zer-sprechen,' 'to talk in bunches.' "������Brooklyn Eagle. No f...ranle For Him.

The fact that a prominent member of the Dominion Civil Service has recently been deprived of his official bead for lack of loyalty to his departmental chief has raised the question how far a public employee is justified iu supplying the political opponents of a Government with information which comes into his possession by reason of tlie position he holds. Are the rules which should govern the conduct in this respect of a civil servant any different to the unwritten rules which govern the employee of a private firm or corporation ? The manager of a commercial concern who discovered that one of his'ing subordinates was supplying informa- jofferin tion about 'his business to a rival firm open mentally dull patient E. A. Paige Managing Director (obedience, a willingness to submit to hardship and coarse discipline, are in any sense the attributes of a good workman, rather the opposite; but we do say broadly, that as a rule the most efficient workman is the least tioublesome to his companion workman, and his employer, and while possessing a strong independence he has a healthy conception of the rights of others, and is generally ready to smooth the difficulties that lie in the pathway of all men. Men having these qualities are desirable in every community and every effort should be made to induce such men and their families to come to us because sucli ��� a workman, with rare exceptions, is ' sure, eventually, to found his home! in our midst, and make a good clti- i zcn.

Theocritus Mis us that the Greek sorcerers killed their enemies by magic rites performed over the effigy of the person who had offended them, and Virgil also makes mention of this. In tbe days of witchcraft and perse cutlon one of tbe most common charges ..gainst witches was that they made waxen Images of their enemies whlcfe they melted before a Are and thus caused the dissolution of the originals, The Japanese sttil regard the efflgy as ��� menus of punishment of faithless lovers, and In Trance to the time of tbe first revolution execution by efflg? was a legal rite, lu the Netherlands tho same Illogical custom prevailed, and Ihe dlffeieut religiria burned tho efllgios Of each Other's leaders with ledi, mi tiuglnml Hi" burning of effigies wns also practiced, as It WM later in America, No doubt from the ancient custom of burning the elligy arose the Idea of placing the wax figures of eminent men In Westminster abbey In olden times upon the denlb of a celebrity a waxeu figure represent Ing hlm fully ilresse' as lu life was made ind ea.rlod In the rear of tbe funeral procession.
