Father of the Typewriter.
Just WO years ago, Christopher La
tham Sholes, the "Puttier of the Type
writer," wns born in Pennsylvania.
While serving ns collector of customs.
he became Interested with two other
Inventors In the problem of making a
machine that would write letters and
words. A letter written on one of the
early machines attracted the attention
of n capitalist, who provided funds.
yiind. Mr. Sholrs continued Improving
the model until nt Inst the tlrst prac
tical typewriter was put . on the
market.
Calculating Feet In Knot.
The Ilrltlsh admiralty knot or nnu
tlcnl mile Is (l.oxo feet and the statute
knot 0.0S2.0O feet nnd Is generally re
gurded ns the standard. The number
of feet In a statute knot !; nnlved nt

21,000 divided Into 1:U,!!.H.V1.-k), tlis
number of feet In the earth's circum
ference, gives O.OS'J.OO feet,' the length
of the statute knot.
Spiders ana oold.
One of the many quaint snperatl-
tlons of the sixteenth century was that
"Spiders be true signs of great stores
of gold." The saying arose in this
way : "When a passage to Cuthuy (the
China of today) was being sought by
the Northwest, a mini brought home a
stone which wns pronounced to be
gold, and caused such a ferment that
several vessels were fitted out for the
express purpose of collecting gold.
I'rnblsher, lu lo77. found In one of the
Islands on which he landed, similar
stones, nnd an enormous number of
spiders."
Unladylike Behavior.' .
Bernlce wns In the? Imliil of calling
her fnther 'on the rvh iihiiiie. ' on one
particular occasion she had lifted up
the receiver nnd had asked for the
number wanted. Alter -.Milting about
u minute the operator told her to hung
up becnuse the line wns busy. After
she hung up she exclaimed to her
mother, standing close by: "Oh,
innminn. the hnly chased me off the
phone."

Edith, three, was watching a circus
parade. She stood In specchlcs

turning to her mothor slie cried: "oh
