One of the oldest crafts In England
Is that of thatching. In Norfolk coun
ty llatbottomed boats still pass along
tho streams conveying men who cut
and gather reeds for thatched roofs.
When reed season Is In full swing
huge piles of dried reeds stand along
tho banks waiting for the thatchors.
Thatching Is really one of the manual
arts hereditary In certain families In
that country. One family has en
gaged In the occupation through four
centuries.
Only one change has been made In
the process during the 400 years. For
merly the reeds were fastened to raft
ers with long strands of bramble bush.
Now either tarred twine or Iron pegs
are used for that purpose. As the
reeds are being put on the roofs their
tops are still laid In place with a his
toric Implement known as the leggett.
This Implement consists of a block of
wood with comb-llke arrangements of
horseshoe nails.

The palace of Justice Io Parts, a por

Every night one of the main doors Is
left ajar in obedience to at> order of
March, 1018, when Louis XIII pnv
vlded that It should remain open per
petually, “so that my subjects may be
able to seek Justice at all hours of the
day and night.” Through revolution,
empire, kingdom and two republics
this order has been scrupulously car
ried out. But the inclining of the cus
tom seems almost forgotten. "The

name of a reporter of a Parisian dally,
presented himself at the door in the
small hours of the night for admit

In czarist days. The Empress Eliza
beth once saw a fine flower In her gar
den. As she was on the way to a court
function she had no time to pick It,
but ordered a soldier to stand guard
over It. The empress forgot about the
flower, but three centuries later there
was still a sentinel placed regularly
each hour of the night and day at the
spot where the flower had been.—
