to say "I don't know , " for that Is pre

Museum library has but thrro and only onu

other strips of brasa wcro tacked on aromid
the edge , and ttio horn and brats rtrlps
clipped oft oven , The child v\au thus pro
vided with a strong and durable copy of the
letters from which It could learn to read.
Tlio earliest horn book ot modern times
dates to the year 1450 , but It IE thought ccr-
tain that similar devices were used in Homo
end areece , If not In Hgrpt. Books were too
expensive lii 4 ho early days of printing to
entrust them to 'tho ' tender mercies of chll-
drt-o , and BO the horn book was Invented.
Horn had lone been used ( or window panes ,
and Its hardness and transparency naturally
suggested KB use as A covering of Uio piper.
The curliest specimens of ( bis "llrst primer"
contain , besides the capitals nnd small let
ters and Arabia numerals , a copy of the
J/ord'a prayer , which thuu formed tlio
child's first loading ICESCHI.
The nobility of UogUnd and little ktcigs
and queens were not satisfied with so com
mon a thing as a horn book , and BO theirs
were made with silver backs and had liner
and clearer horn over the printed slip or
the fetters wore engraved on the silver.
There Is ono still In existence which was
presented by Queen Elizabeth to a little lord
of her court and It Is , of course , very hand-
faome. The cidlnary horn book from which
Tommy Jones and Susan Drown learned
their A , B , C , was really of horn nnd cost
but a penny or itwo pence , at most. Ono of
thcso was sold at auction In 1SD3 for $325 , so
rare have they become. All that could be
gathered for exhibition in 1882 were eight
and they aroused a great deal of Interest.
As Fate as the beginning1 of the nine *
tccntli century the little children In Ungland
used the horn book , nnd It Is said that their
shape was so convenient that the teacher
sometimes used It upon the head or hand of
a stupid or lazy pupil. The pilgrim fathers
undoubtedly brought over horn books with
them , for the only ono found In this country
Is exactly HKo those made In England. Some
of the wooden horn books were covered on
the back with leather to add to their dura
bility. Still moro elaborate ones had pic
tures under each letter , Just HUe the picture
alphabets In our A , U. C books under A
was an apple , under n a bull , under C a
c-.it , etc. On ono ot these there Is a line of
advlco at the top and bottom of the page :
"Ho that ne'er learns his A , II , C , Forever
111 a Blo.ckhead bo. Dut ho that learns
thesMctters fair , shall have a coach to take
the ait. "
The most Interesting form of the horn
book undoubtedly was that one made of gin
ger broad. It had all the letters on It like
a real horn book , nnd according to the poet :
To Mutter John the KiiKllsh 7nnld
A burn book gives of gingerbread :

tears In his eyes ; then coming euddenly out
of ono of his dreims , ho would run to meet

questions upou philosophical subjects , rea
soning Ilka a man to support his own broad

Its captain was an old acquaintance. Ho
hunted up the ship and during the course
of a visit to its skipper learned that there
was an old church bell on board.
The captain had got hold of It on one
of his trips to Spain and had used It for
ballast for his ship. It had been \vlth > hlm
for three or four vojages across the ocean ,
ibut lie was not unwilling to part with it
for a icasonablo sum. The country merchant
made a conditional arrangement for Us pur-
I chase and returned to his home. A popular
I subscription was started and when the $125
' uecessarj for the purchase of the bell and
Us transmission to nilicottvtlle was raised
the order was sent for its forwarding. But
by this time the old bell v\as dancing over
the waves on another Journey to European
countries and it v\as not until months after
ward that word came that It was awaiting
the order of the purchasers.
It wan raised to its place In the steeple
with great labor , and for nearly thirty years
not only summoned psoplo to dlvino service ,
but was rung rcgulaily every day ut G a. m. ,
12 m. and 9 p. m. It was also used as n fire
alarm , nnd on occasions of general rejoicing ,
such as the Fourth of July acid Washington's
birthday.
The bell was cast during the reign of
Philip V , and for more than a century
hung in a monastery on 'tho ' outskirts of
Malaga. In 183S Maria. Christina , quecti to
Ferdinand VII , grasped the reins of govern
ment on the death of the King inthe name
ot her daughter. Don Carlos protested nnd
laid claim to the throne , in accordance with
> the Salic law forbidding to females the right
ot succession , which Don Carlos claimed
hod boon Illegally abrogated by rerdtaand.
Maria Christina was compelled to espouse
liberalism In order to secure support. The
Inquisition was abolished , the Jesuits ex
pelled and matiy monasteries and ihurchcs
where the priests had been especially ob
noxious to the liberal party wcro sacked and
burned In the encounters which followed ,

declared that ho could do It ho had strong

Ho applied his mouth to the pipe and
puffed to such purpose that the vitreous
