It had been Mrs. Spauldlng'a custom during the boyhood of her only son to correct his fallings by posting about the house little placards which gently pleaded with him on the error of his way.. A wii'k or two earlier, when Dick was coming home for tt college vacation, she had unearthed some of these old slgna and Just for n Joke had pinned them up In his room, like old times. They had been taken dowr. later, but ahe retnemltered now that, after being summoned to the sick friend the morning before, ahe had led her new-alid not brllllant-tnald to Dlck'a door and had Bald: "I want thia room swept and arranged for Bish op Maxwell exactly aa we did It for Mr. Dick hist week. Do you under stand?" With wings on her feet Mrs. Spauld Ing flew to the room the bishop had oc cupied, but at the threshold ahe paused and gasped. On one of the pillows was a staring notice to this effect: 'Tlense put your bed airing In the morning!" Over the mirror, "Please don't spatter the glass:" On the window curtain, "Please don't throw your shoes on the floor noisily!" Everywhere, on pictures mid wall: "Please dou't leave your coat ou a chair. Hang It up!" 'Tlense don't leave you toothbrush In the bath room r "Please turn off the hot water faucet!" There were at least fifteen of these placards, the "Please" underlined three or four times In each, but-fcorror of horrors the largest of all was this, on the Inside of the door: "If you take a bath please wash out the tub.

The Cuntoni at One Time Rxtradrd to I.lnroln'a Inn, Ixindoa. When one looks In bookshop window nowadays and contemplates the be wildering abundance of volumes of al! kinds of literature offered at the low price of $l.iio or less he fiuds it ditll cult to realize that time was wheD a Bible tiist us much as ?10.ij(i0 In out present money. No wonder it was kept chained In churches. The Black Books of Lincoln's Inn, London, show that this practice of chaining obtained there. There Is nn entry during the reign of King James 1. "that decent stooles be provided and that movetrble desks be also made and chains for the book," and a few years later the inn payments include 20 shillings for twenty dozen of chains and riugs for the library, and there is a fresh order made that "all considerable bookes be cbayned." It appears that none of the existing books In the library retain their chains or any part of them, but a considerable number about forty still have riveted to the binding the ring or hasp by which the chain was attached, and many more show the mark left by rings now removed. The "moveable desk" and the "de cent stoole" were essential appurte nances of a chained library of any size. Even the zeal of a mediaeval student was not equal to holding a chained folio. In the accounts of the Middle Temple "chayns for the bokes of the librarle" la a constantly recurring Item, and a render in Gray's Inn In bequeath ing his library gives 4i shillings to the , intent that he the trustee "male by I chaynes fasten so many of them in the librarle at Cray's Inn as be shall thlnke convenyente."
