A tot of Land
A Ilnrtford lawyer is of the opinion
that the term lot as applied to a par
cel of land Is an American product not
derived from any other uses of the
word He says I have been reading
up some of the old histories of my
state of Long Island and other colo
nial sections recently and I find that
the term a lot of land was originated
In the colonicsthat it is today consid
ered an Americanism and stands apart
from other uses of the word It origi
nated from the custom of dividing
grants for townships etc into parcels
of land and then numbering each par
cel putting the numbers into a hat or
whatever was used and then having
them drawn out by those who were to
occupy the land Each man took the
parcel corresponding to his number so
his land came by lot literally and
hence the use of the term This I pre
sume is ancient history but perhaps
ancient enough to have been forgotten
by most real estate dealers and other
people who deal in land and not lan
guage
Lightning and Watches
An electrical storm seems to have
a peculiar effect on some timepieces
remarked the junior partner of a big
downtown jewelry firm Every time
lightning and thunder get active in
this vicinity one of the results is that
our watch repairing department is
overworked for several days there
after The damage wrought chiefly
consists of broken mainsprings
When business gets dull with us
added the jeweler jokingly we re
quire all our employees to pray for a
thunderstorm Failure to comply with
this order is considered sufficient cause
for discharge I am unable to make
clear the whys and wherefores but it
is an established fact that after the
lightning has frolicked awhile in come
the watches with mainsprings wreck

The Queen Bee
She possesses the power of choosing
which of her offspring shall be drones
and which workers Some have
thought that this was automatic and
that the narrower worker cell touched
the button so to speak that brought
forth a fertilized egg But the queen
will lay worker eggs in drone cells if
she thinks fit so that settles that
If the drone is male and the queen
female what is the worker The new
woman of Beedom She has given up
her motherhood for a business career
Sometimes though she lays eggs but
they always hatch out drones of which
It is strictly true to say they have a
mother but no father If the queens
wings are crippled so that she cannot
make her marriage flight her children
are all drones An Italian queen in
a hive of black bees will beget work
ers of mixed blood but her sons are
pure Italians Drones are useful as
fathers of workers but they cannot col

The ICciinou One Woman Rejoices A business Deal Between Totter
While Another One Mourns Palmer und A T Stewart
A Philadelphia woman moving ln At the time of the civil war said
good society has been cured of a ma- an old merchant Potter Palmer was
nia for attending rummage sales but in the dry goods business In Chicago
It took a heroic treatment to effect the and Levi Z Leiter and Marshall Field

sale of the description named In aid of so well known but he hud a gcd rep-
a worthy charity in which she j Inter
ested and came away minus a cwenty
Uve dollar hat It happened this way
A feature of the sale was a counter
filled with untrimmed hats advertised
Your choice for 00 cents Now the
North Thirty third street woman didnt
want an untrimmed hat at 50 cents
but there was one that caught her
fancy by reason of its odd shape and
she simply couldnt resist the tempta
tion to try it on So she took off the
utation in the trade and he dida t have
to Introduce himself when he called on
old A T Stewart to buy some goods
After some dickering they agreed upon
the price and Palmer calmly said that
he would take about 100000 worth
It was a little larger bill than Stewart
exactly cared to sell young Palmer on
credit but he concluded to make the
deal and told him to come in the nest
morning and arrange some final de
tails That night some big war news
handsome hat she was wearing placed came and it didnt require any

trimmed one Then she looked around ery dry goods man in the country that
for a mirror There was only one and the price of goods would take a big

She pushed her way through the iy thought of Palmer lie also thought
crowd and in the meantime a fat 0f the big bill of goods Palmer had
ored womans eyes were glued to the bought of him It didnt particularly

marked Your choice for 50 cents
It was a golden opportunity not to be
missed Counting out 50 cents in dimes
nickels and pennies she shoved them
at the innocent young attendant and
made good her escape with the fash
ionable womans hat Exchange
But it required only a few scratches
of his red head to fix things to his sat
isfaction He would simply tell Pal
mer that he was sorry but that he
didnt feel that he could sell such a
big bill on credit and as he knew that
Palmer couldnt raise the cash imme
diately why that would end It and
the sale would be off Weil young
Palmer called early and Stewart
greeted him in his very abruptest man
ner telling him how sorry he was etc
but really he didnt think it wise busi
ness to extend credit for such an
amount
Just how much does the biii come
to said young Palmer seemingly sorrowful-like
Just 110000 Stewart replied and
then he straightway gulped for breath
as young Palmer drew an immense
pocketbook from his inside vest pocket
and opening it counted out 110 thou
sand dollar bills and lajing them quiet

FASCINATING DANGER
The Perils That Beset the BuilderK
of Bljr Bridges
The design of a long bridge span is
one of the most elaborate mathemat
ical problems that arise in constructive
work The stresses produced by Its
own weight by the weight of traffic
by locomotive drivers by the hammer
ing of flattened wheels by the action
of brakes on an express train by the
high speed on a curved track by the
wind and by the expansion and con
traction of the steel in summer and
winter are all accurately calculated
The deflection of the loaded and un
loaded bridge is determined and com
plete drawings are made of every mem
ber of It The bars of steel are tested
in machines which will pull in two a
horsehair or a steel bar strong enough
to lift half a score of the heaviest lo
comotives at once and which will
crush an eggshell or a steel column
and accurately measure the stress In
each case The different kinds of mem
bers are forged riveted bored or
planed in perhaps half a dozen remote
shops and although usually not fitted
together there are examined and meas
ured by specialists to see that they are
correct and are then shipped by scores
of carloads to the site of the proposed
structure where steam derricks unload
them and pile them many feet high in
stacks covering acres of ground
The bridge piers may rise above the
water hundreds of feet apart It re
mains to place them on a thousand ton
structure high above a savage chasm
over an impassable current or roaring
tide where the water is deep the bot
tom of jagged rocks or treacherous
quicksand or where an old bridge must
be removed and the new one built in
its place without interrupting traffic
on the bridge To accomplish this the
engineer has timber bolts and ropes
hoisting engines derricks and a band
of intrepid builders who have perhaps
followed him for years through more
hardship and danger than fail to the
lot of almost any other calling
The complicated framework of a
great span is a skeleton with many
accurate joints and thousands of steel
sinews and bones each of which must
go in exactly the right place in exact
ly the right order The builder must
weave into the trusses pieces larger
heavier and far more inflexible than
whole tree trunks swiftly hoist and
swing them to place hundreds of feet
high fit together the massive girders
and huge forged bars watchmak
ers accuracy support the unwieldy
masses until they are keyed together
and self sustaining and under mil
lions of pounds of stress must adjust
them at dizzy heights to mathematical
lines This he may need to do not de
liberately but in dangerous emergen
cies at utmost speed putting forth his
whole strength on narrow springing
planks in a furious tempest in bitter
cold or in blazing heat He may be
in the heart of an African desert men
aced by bloodthirsty fanatics or in a
gorge of the Andes hundreds of miles
from tools or supplies where there is
absolutely no supplement to his own
resources Under such conditions
bridge building is one of the most fas
cinating and difficult of engineering

Bells
It was long a fixed idea that silver
mixed with the bell metal improved
the tone but this is now considered in
correct The Acton Nightingale and
Silver Bell two singularly sweet bells
at St Johns college Cambridge are
said to have a mixture of silver but
if true this is not believed by compe
tent authorities to be the cause of their
beautiful tone This idea led to the
story of the monk Tandio concealing
the silver given him by Charlemagne
and casting the bell in the monastery
of St Paul of inferior metal where
upon he was struck by the clapper and
killed In the ninth century bells were
made in France of iron They have
been cast in steel and the tone has
been found nearly equal in fineness to
that of the bell metal but having less
vibration was deficient in length and
thick glass bells have been made which
give a beautiful sound but are too brit
tle to long withstand the strokes of the

The Doe and the Jackdaw
In Savertiaio forest I once witnessed
n very pretty little scene I noticed a
doe lying down by herself in a grassy
hollow and as I passed her at a dis
tance of about fifty yards it struck mo
as singular that she kept her head so
low down that I could only see the top
of it on a level with her buck Walk
ing round to get a better sight I saw
a Jackdaw standing on the tun before
her very busily pecking at her face
With my glass I was able to watch her
movements very closely lie pecked
round her eyes then her nostrils her
throat and in act every part of her
face and Just as a man when being
shaved turns his face this way and
that under the gentle guiding touch of
the barbers fingers and lifts up his
chin to allow the razor to pass beneath
it so did the doe raise and lower and
turn her face about to enable the bird
to examine and reach every part with
his bill Finally the daw left the face
and moving round jumped on the
deers shoulders and began a minute
search in that part Having finished
this he jumped on to the head and
pecked at the forehead and round the
bases of the ears The pecking done
he remained for some seconds sitting
perfectly still looking very pretty with
the graceful red head for a stand the

Amazon Ant Cnrdens
Dr E Ule contributes to Englcrs
Jahrbuch supplement 10 some inter
esting observations on ant gardens
In the Amazon region where they
abound on a largo number of good
plants They are generally spherical in
form and about the size of a walnut
They are formed by several species of
ant which appear to collect the seeds
of many different plants and to sow
them in these nests covering up the
seedlings with humus when they begin
to germinate In the structure of these
ant epiphytes the foliage and the
roots display characters which espe
cially adapt them for the situation In
which they grow and promote also the
protection of the ants themselves In
their nest Quite a number of the
epiphytes were found as denizens of
the ant gardensand nowhere else
The ElffKcst Not the Best

It is often amusing to see men wom

lieve the choicest fruit at the market
stands If there are a half a dozen
large oranges within sight they will
have them even if it is necessary to
overturn all the rest in the box or bar
rel and this is true with most all other
varieties that are sold by the piece or
dozen They invariably get the poorest
specimens of the whole crop and yet
are not aware of it Very rarely you
will find a person who is a good judge
who will at once size up the heaviest
oranges lemons or bananas regardless
of size and they capture the choicest
fruit
Why Two Ears Are Necessary
Sound travels by waves radiating
from a central point of disturbance
just as waves radiate when a stone is
dropped into still water So far as tho
hearing of each individual is concerned
these waves move in a direct line from
the cause of the sound to his ear the
impact being the greatest in the ear
nearest to the source This being the
case a person who has totally lost the
sense of hearing in one ear although
he may imagine that the defect Is of
little consequence cannot locate the di
rection of a sound to save his life even
when the center of disturbance is quite
near him
