Royal Splendor That Once Dazzled Europe Utilized as Weapons First Door Knocksrs The decorative quality of door knockers has been gaining in recogni tion and is now held in poular favor, says a writer in l'our Home Maga- sfne. "Door knockers," reads Your Home, “were little known in the obscure reaches of ancient history, and their development from articles of mere utility to objects of art lias covered centuries. The Greeks considered It a breach of etiquette to enter a house without warning the Inmates. Spar tans gave this notice h.v shouting their arrival, but the Athenians announced themselves by using tlie knocker, which Introduction was doubtless made at the time when doors suiier- seded hangings for purposes of great er privacy or safety. First it • con stated of a rod like piece of iron chained to the door, but unfriendly visitors sometimes wrenched It from the door and used It as a weapon of offense against the Inmates. It was then that the form was changed to that of a heavy ring fastened bv a strong clamp or plate to ttie door, thus serving the double purpose of knock er and handle. From Greece the cus tom was transmitted to the Homans and through their conquests to nearly every country of Europe. It was not long before they were very much elab orated, beveled, chased and designed in many variations, of which repro ductions may be found for the door that would be Interesting today.” Guinea Fowl Resists Appeal of the Wild Europe was dazzled by a display of royal pomp unequaled ln the history of pageantry, when Henry VIII met Francis 1 of France on the Field of tbe Cloth of Gold. For his entertainment a temporary palace was built at Guinea, near Cal ais, covering three acres. No fewer than 2,800 tents stood around it to house the knights and ladies of his re splendent train. Their cliupel liad 35 priests to serve It and for tlie 20-odd days they were in France 2,200 sheep went to form one item of their menu. There is a picture in Hampton court which will give you some idea of the splendor of the day. it shows tlie Great Harry, that giant ship, with her sails of damasked cloth of gold and four royal standards flying from her fo’c'sle, sailing out of Dover harbor. Other ships, hearing Yeomen of the Guard, drummers, lifers and banner bearers, are making ready to follow, and tlie water is thronged with small boats full of spectators, one of whom is graphically represented in the act o f being seasick. TI ip diplomatic results of (Ids mag nificent display of wealth anti power, it i? sad to read, were as near uotlilng as doesn’t matter. Chairman Didn’t Quite Get Idea of Lecture Being a Scot, and ttierefore a sen timentalist, 1 have always had an ap preciative eye for good-looking women. As u consequence of inuny wander ings I thought 1 could give u lecture about the ladies of many lauds. I gathered a lot of pretty photographs— ladles walking in Hyde park, dusky maidens dancing In the South Sea is lands, und that kind of thing—and wove a cheery lecture. “Sovereign Woman: Being the Impression of a Man in Thirty-eight Countries." It went well. 1 delivered It in a Surrey residen tial town. My chairman, who had en tertained me ardently at dinner, said the customary tilings a chairman Is expected to say—information culled from “Who’s Who’’—ami concluded by remarking, “Now I will call upon our lecturer to give you bis experi ences witli 38 women in different countries!” The audience roared. I blushed. The chairman inquired in a loud whisper, “Have 1 said anything wrong?”—Sir John Foster Fraser in London Graphic. Guinea fowls have been domesticated ail over the United States, comments a scientist of the United States Depart ment of Agriculture, and have bad plenty of opportunities to escape to the wild. They have shov.n little indication of desiring to do so. and this seems rather surprising, in view of the fact that they have done so In some of the islands of the West In dies. They were certainly introduced long ago into most of these islands and are now found in a wild state In Jamaica, Cuba, Porto Rico, Domini can Republic, and a few of the Lesser Antilles.
