Centuries Have Seen
No Change in Hammer
Recently an old hammer was
found embedded in a muss of con
crete to which was attached a piece
of Roman tile. From the broken
crockery found with it, there Is no
doubt that it must have been a
Roman hammer dating from the
Second or Third century. The for
tunate discoverer of this Interesting
relic was carrying It off In triumph
to his office when be happened to
pass a workman nailing a carpet
with what Is known as an uphol
sterer’s hammer. This, on inspec
tion, turned out to be an exact rep
lica of the Roman instrument, ex
cept that It was very slightly small
er. The bevel on the Inside of the
claws of the nail wrench was the
same. The same number of rivets
was used to attach the head to the
wooden handle, and those rivets
were fixed in exactly the same po
sitions. As “Q. W..” writing of the
Incident In one of the papers, re
marked: ‘‘So with all our vaunted
progress, there seem to be some
things which, having once been de
signed to meet a special need, can
not be improved upon so long as the
need remains the same.”

British Bird Sanctuaries
Fame Islands, off the Northum
brian (England) coast, have been
handed over to the national trust
for preservation as a bird sanctuary.
The Islands number 15, nnd have
an area of 80 acres. The regular
breeding population Includes gulls
of three species, terns of four, auks
of three, cormorants of two, waders
of two, and one species of duck.
The Islands form one of the most
southerly stations In the breeding
range of the elder duck. The most
Interesting species, perhaps, is that

Fame Islands have no equal around
the British coasts, and even the
great bird stations among the Scot
tish Isles lack one or two-of tlie
species represented here.
Britain’» Constitution
The constitution of Great Britain,
many of whose principles form the
foundation of about every free con
stitution in the world. Is an accumu
lation of statutes, customs and de
cisions. The Magna Charta, granted
in 1215 by King John, may be re
garded as a starting point. Other
salient features are the petition of
rights and the declaration-of rights,
the habeas corpus act, the act of
settlement, the franchise laws and
the practices and customs respect
ing the responsibility of govern
ment. The sovereign would accept
or decline gifts of small value or
of no political significance, accord
ing to his own wish or judgment,
but a gift of very considerable
value would not be acepted without
the advice aud consent of the min
istry.
