It is held that in early colanial days the best ruw and tebacen were imporied from ‘Aux Cayes, in San Domingoe. Hence the best of anything cauie to be known locally as Aux Cayes, or 0. K.” : " Another explanation refors to- the use of "0l Keokuk.” an Indian chief, who is said to have signed (reaties with the initials “O: K" However, the term didn’t come into general use until -the presidentisl campaign of 1828, when the supposed {lliteracy of Anidrew Jackson the Democratie candidate, led Seba Smith, the humorist, writing under the name of “Malor Jaeck Downing.” to start the story that Jackson Indorsed his papers 0. K" under the tmpression that they formed the initinls of Ol Korrect.” James Parton, the noted blogrspher, discovered in the records of the Nashville court, of which Jackson wis Judze, numerous documents indorsed. “00. R." meaning “order- rescinded.” He therefore urged that it was a belated.. business that Major Downing saw-on the desk of the presidential eandidate. .The Demoerats, in Heu of denying the (‘hnr;i:c». adopted the letters “00.

ONE OF THE OLDEST METALS Abundant Proof That Iron Has Been in Use Since the Very Earliecit - Days. . . Iron must have been familiar in the time of Moses. A wedge made of iron was left In the great pyramid by the builders, which proves that the metal was known and in use about 1,500 B. C. Besides, in the fourth chapter of Genesis, it Is mentioned that Tubal Cain was a pioneer in developing the arts of Iron making and brass working. Brass, howeveér, was a very 'in-. definite terin among the natives. When spoken of in the Scriptures it is seldom to be understood to signify the alloy of copper and zine now called by that name. The “brass”. tempered for edged tools or weapons of war was a bronze, usually a compound of copper and tin, : o e
Copper was also known to mankind at a very early period. Articles of cop per were found 81 feet under the stitue of Rameses the Great, which tvas erected 3,500 years ago. Debris has accumulated there te a depth of nine feet, and the copper articles were found, on further excavation, 72 feet lower down. : : | .
/ -~ Gretna Green. Gretna Green, the rendezvous of eloping couples, was once the haunt of persons who exercised cupldity at ‘the expense of Cupid, and innkeepers, ferrymen and - tollhouse temders exploited the couples who fled there. Any . witnesses served to make the marringes recognized as legal, but the “professional witnesses” there, like the “marrying parsons” of some. Amerfean towns, engaged “touts” to bring couples to them, and wher the raib road from Glisgow to Carlisle started runiiing, the station platform at Gretna Green thronged with these obnoxfous “commissioned men.” According to a popular - legend, blacksmith shops were favorite moec. ca@for eloping couples, but authority is lacking for stories of smithies who would pause while shoeing horses to help legalize marriages.
: Hatshopsu-Pharaoh, ‘ Who antedated De Lesseps (1889) by 4000 years in digging the Suez canal? A woman. “Hatshopsu-Pha-raoh. She ascended the throne of Egypt with her brother, Thothmes 11, about 1600 B. C. .Her courage and’capacity brought ‘the reins of government into her own hands. At the death of Thothmes she was the master spirit of the age. The dominant woman Dbuilt the splendid terraced rock temple of Dair-el-Bahari on the Theban plain. "Her chief glory was in sending an expedition to the Land of Punt (Ophir) by way of the Red sea. A woman dug the first Suez canal, and as the expedition ‘returned up the Nile the shouts that greeted the queen (who always %ore the habiliment of the male) was the first “God save the king” in history! s . - Too Much Self-Indulgence. .
The greatest weakness of human nature is self-indulgence, drifting along the path of least resistance—with ill health at the end of the road. Good health is, of course, the first prerequisite to a long and useful life. Longevity is sought as a high price of constant exercise of will power and self-control ~ There are many persons who have not that will power and self-control. In these cases we cannot go agninst nature by any amount of teaching.—Exchange. @ =
