My mother was among the first oi
Disraelis acquaintances to recognize
his great ability and she saw a gvir
deal of him when at Mrs Xovuu
when he was a young man about town
She did not see very much of him
after he had once entered
his
upon po
litical career Here however is a lit
tle anecdote which is very characteris
tic ami amusing My mother had a
ereai admiration for the Curios ies of
Literature and was anxious to malu
the acquaintance of Disraelis
but there was a difficulty about this as
at tne moment he was not on gjod
terms with his father
However he appeared one day with
his father in tow As soon as they
were both seated Disraeli turned
around and looking at his father as if
he were a piece of ornamental china
said to my mother Madam I have
brought you my father I have become
reconciled to my father on two condi
tions The first was that he should
come to see you and the second that lie
should pay my debts

Early writers made use of linen or

scales of fishes for writing For a long
period papyrus was used the book

and one half feet wide and sometimes
fifty feet long Papyrus was a flag or
bulrush growing eight or ten feet
high found In the marshes of Egypt
from its inner pith the form of paper
called papyrus was made Papyrus
sheets were neatly joined attached to
a stick and rolled upon it whence we
have our word volume from the i

were written on tags attached to the
sticks or inscribed on the outside of
the rolls The rolls were kept in
round wooden boxes resembling the
old fashioned bandboxes and could
easily be carried about

A Considerate Jiidcn
A Kentucky congressman tells of a
considerate judge in his state who
passed sentence on a man convicted of
murder The Judge said
Mr Dodson the
jury
says vou are
guilty of murder and the law savs vou
are to be hanged it Is my wish that
jou anu an your friends on the river
know that it is not I who condemns
you It Is the jury and the law Mr
Dodson At what time sir would you
like to be hanged
The prisoner made answer that It
was a matter of Indifference to him
and that he was prepared to be swung
off at any time The Judge continued
Mr Dodson It Is a serious matter
to be hanged It
cant happen to a man
but once in life unless the rope should
break before the neck is broken and
you had better take all the time vou
can But since it makes no difference
to you you may hang four weeks from
today at 12 noon but you mav have a
good dinner first
