THERE is a great deal o f difference in fountain jgens. A /
cheap and nasty fountain pen wastes your time and
temper, besides wasting your money.
It does not pay us to
sell a bad fountain pen, for a pen is a man's closest
companion, and he often judges our other goods by the
pen we’ ve sold him. Therefore, we sell only the best
fountain pens—the kind that will make a good impres­
sion on you and bring you to this store as a regular
customer. Come in today and see some of our bargains:

A nautical knot and a nautical
mile are two different things, al­
though they are frequently con­
founded by lundsmen.
,
The length of a nautical knot is
fifty feet and eight inches, while
that of a nautical mile varies from
the extreme length of 6,107 feet
and 10 inches to the shortest, 6,046
feet. This variation in the length
of a nautical mile is due to the fact
that it must conform to a line meas­
uring one minute of arc of the
earth’s surface at sea level, and as
the earth is not a perfect circle the
radii differ, and so must the arc.
To avoid confusion, however, the
length of a standard nautical mile
has been fixed by the United States
coast and geodetic survey at 6,080
feet and 3$4 inches, that being the
length of one minute of arc of a
great circle of a true sphere, whose
surface area is equal to that of the
earth.
The method of determining the
distance sailed by a ship at sea in
the early dayB of navigation was by
means of a process called “ heaving
a log.” The three cornered board
with lead attached, so as to float on
its edge that it might not be (frag­
ged through the water, was attach­
ed to a long line, and 100 feet from
the log or three cornered board a
knot was made in the line, and
when the log was thrown into the
water as the vessel sailed away from
it the line was drawn out of the
vessel by the log, which remained
stationary in the water.
As soon as the knot passed out
over the rail or stern of the vessel
a half minute sandglass was turned
to show the time and the sand care­
fully watched until the last grain
had dropped into the lower bulb,
and the log line was then instantly
stopped at the rail. The distance
was measured on the line as it was
hauled in from where it stopped at
the rail to the knot before mention­
ed. As a half minute glass denoted
the one hundred and twentieth part
of an hour, so the log line was a
one hundred and twentieth part of
the distance a vessel would sail in
an hour.
In order to make the computa­
tion more easy knots were placed
on the log line every one hnndred
and twentieth part of a mile of
6,080 feet, which placed the knots
fifty feet eight inches apart, and
the number of these knots which
the vessel sailed in half a minute
were therefore equal to the number
of miles that the vessel would sail
an hour if she continued at the
same rate of speed.
The knot received its name from
a simple knot tied in the log line
and was therefore not a mile, bnt
merely the one hundred and twen­
tieth part of one.— St. Louis Globe-
Democrat.
Frederic Remington’s studio was
quiet. A stillness that betokens
work pervaded the atmosphere, and
the artist, working away at his can­
vas, “ The Spirit of War,” silently
laid on his colors of the scorching
6un and an Indian chief, raised in
his stirrups, shouting to his braves,
inspiring them with courage for the
fight
Remington had not heard a knock
at the, studio door or the entrance
of an unannounced guest Nor did
he realize that two sharp eyes were
scanning his work with that critical
examination characteristic of the
man who “ knows art.”
Suddenly there burst from the
visitor such a shout as any Indian
chief would have been proud of.
Another and another shout echo­
ed through the studio. Remington,
starting hack, dropped his brushes
and palette and turned in the direc­
tion of the thundering voice.
“ Ah, bah 1 My boy, open his
mouth. Make him shout. Make him
look it. Open his mouth. So— so.”
And the stranger gave vent to two
more shouts fit for the plains.
It was Gerome, and this was his
method of expression in this special
case.
Remington, in accordance
with his advice, “ opened his mouth,”
and as a result, instead of the slight­
ly parted lips, there is a face so full
of enthusiasm, so expressive of a
great heartfelt throb giving vent to
a cheer, that when one sees the pic­
ture he is prompted to the action
of Gerome, who made probably the
most unusual criticism ever given on
one of Remington’s best pictures.

Sir Henry Irving was accustomed
to visit at the home of Miss Fris-
well, author of “ In the Sixties and
Seventies,” in which volume ap­
pears the following anecdote: “ My
mother often used to point out little
details that had beeq overlooked. I
remember one in ‘The Bells,’ which
my mother told Mr. Irving on the
first night when he returned to
our house to supper. People who
have seen the play may remember
that the first scene is a small inn
and that there is supposed to have
! been a deep fall o f snow. The inn­
keeper, Matthias (Irving), walked
i in on that jfirst night in ordinary
black boots, with no snow upon
them. My mother spoke of it, and
afterward Matthias wore high black
boots and stood on the mat while
the snow was brushed off. Remarks
were made in the papers as to Mr.
Irving’s attention to the minutest
details, and this was cited as an in­
stance.”
Mozart's Quiok Work.
On one occasion Mozart was mak­
ing merry with his friends at mid­
night when not a single note was
written of the overture to “ Don
Giovanni,” which was to be produc­
ed on the following evening. When
he had said goodby to his friends he
calmly went to bed and slept until 5
o’clock in the morning. Awaking
refreshed, he set to work on the
overture, dashing off sheet after
sheet with incredible rapidity and
dispatching them to the copyists.
The opera was to begin at 7 in the
evening, and a few minutes after
that hour Mozart was in his place
as conductor, baton in hand, while
the parts with the ink still wet on
some of them were being handed to
the orchestra.

“ Well, John, it’s— er— it’ s some­
