Riley’s ‘barefoot boy with cheek of tan.” says the Wawaka correspondent. Mr. Deam wili be in the county about a week. He is preparing a state bulletin. “Indiana Woodlands and ' their management,” which will soon be broad casted over the country.

Big Drop in Revenue Tax.

Inte}'nal revenuegcollections for. Indiana amounted to $52,480,479.80 in the year ending June 30 1922 according to figures announced Wednesday by M. Bert Thurman collector of internal revenue. The .collections for the year were $24,848,822.23 less than for the previous year. The decrease is accounted for by the fact that various taxes, including transportation tax, were removed -n 1922, while at the same time exemptions for individual income taxes were increased from $2,000 to $2,500 for married persons.

HOW FIRST LOCK WAS MADE Devilopunent of the Key ‘Reveals an lbtorestiflg Story of Ages Long | Passed. Away. = ~ The modern lock is @ development of?%he, horizontal bar placed across the Insideof the door. This was a -good, substitute for a lock when one ‘remained inside, and to adjust it so th:.xtnFt would fall into- place when the door jwas closed from the outside was ‘comparatively simple, but to lift the bar fl-om‘ the outside when one wished to enter, was the problem. This was accomplished by fitting a hole into the door | post, - through which something designed to lift the bar was inserted. This was the first keyhole and the instrument used in lifting the bar ‘was yr.he first key, says the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. . . The simplest idea for preventing the bar. from sliding was to bore a hole |in the top of the bar, which would also . penetrate the staple on which it rested, and drop a peg into the hole through the staple. The unlocking problem could be accom= plished by any instrument which would lift he: peg and permit: the bar to slide back. Then if a series of pegs werelused, all of which had to be lifted, unlocking would be more - difficult., In our modern locks, the pegs have simply been replaced by “tumbless” on which the key acts in the same way. - {l‘he key originally had wooden pegs fastened to correspond with the pegs holding the bar in place on the inside, and these ping developed into t%he notches which are on our modern keys. As’ there were no Pockets in those days the other end of the key was made into a ring and worn on the finger. That is why the keys c;)f today usually have a ring at the end—just a relic of the past.

FIND CHEESE SUBTLE THING

Reason That is Advanced for the Apparent Impossibility of Imitating "~ .the Genuine Camembert. 0

A man interested in agricultural products wanted to make cheese of the type of Camembert, but while ‘he had the same .ferment, employed the same methods and used what seemed to be the same kind of milk, neither he nor anyone else’in this country obtained the same result. . 52

On visiting France he found: that the makers of the cheese in question were very particular about their milk, obtaining it from the dairymen of a certain district only. In the fields of these farmers there grew, he found, a sprinkling of certain grasses that he did not find elsewhere, and it is possible, and even likely, that these make the subtle difference in the milk that shows in the cheese which-distinguishes the genuine from the artificial product. And yet, the specfal grasses were only incidental; they were not the main grasses of the pasture, which were the same as those found elsewhere.—Ellwood Hendrick in Harper’s Magazine. e : i

Leather His Hobby,

One of the curious American characters of the last century was the “Old Leather Man” who for nearly 30 years tramped -over eastern New York and Connecticut clad almost -entirely in leather. Hi§ home was in a cave near Sing Sing,’ where he was found " dead in 1889 He did occasional jobs of plumbing, and never accepted any recompense but food and tobacco. . S )

“He was said to have been made insane by an unfortunate love affair in France when he was a young man. According to the sbry, he won the heart of the daughter of a wealthy leather merchant and entered into her father’s business to prove his worthiness. He speculated in leather and when . the market in that eommodity crashed, his prospective father-in-law was ruined and his own:hopes were shattered. This unhinged his mind, and he determined to spend the rest of his life wandering around the countryside clothed In leather. His. name was Jules Bourglay. Sl

Cost of Stopping Trains.

An ordinary passenger - locomotive consumes a pound of fuel for every 52 feet it travels. Each unnecessary stop, made with a hedvy freight or passenger train, represents a fuel loss of from 500 fo 750 pounds of coal, depending -on the weight of the train, the length of the stop and the grade conditions, : - sty

A brake-line air leak on a train of 50 freight.cars has béen known to cause a loss of as much as 2,540 1 pounds of coal in a ten-hour period. - The loss of coal each time a modern locomotive pops off for five minutes i’s"‘] about seventy-five pounds. If locomyptive firemen were to gave a little more than one shovelful of coal out of each ten used, the total saving would be equal to nearly 7 per cent of all the coal handled—World’s Work.

Origin of Slang Term.

' Students of slang have found interest in an article in an English magazine on “Black Beetles,” because it gives what is perhaps the origin of the use of “cuckoo” as a new synonym for crazy. According to the writer, the word cockroach comes from the Spanish “cucaracha,” which he .says probably means a sort of bug, in Spanish “cuco.”” The word “bug” in a similar, if restricted, sense has become pretty well . established in slang use in this country, and perhaps, say students of the subject, finding its way across the Rio Grande, has been . exchanged for its Mexican equivalent in the same“way that many other Span: ish words have entered the American language.—New Yqfi;;’,;Exfe;&fik Post.
