THE FIRST TEACUPS.
They Had No .Handles, and Saucor#
Ware Used as Covers.
Iii the middle of the seventeenth cen
tury tea was introduced into England,
and with It came the Chinese or "chi
na" "teacup. Strangely enough, the
men who Imported it from the orient
, did not themselves understand the
• method of its u e.
The Chinese put a pinch of tea into
a large cup without a handle, filled It
with boiling water and then inverted
a saucer over the receptacle, within
whose rim it closely lilted. The object
was partly to retain the heat, but
chiefly to prevent the escape of the
fragrance of tile herb, which the Chi
nese found most delicious. The infu
sion was permitted to stand for five
minutes, when it was decanted Into
a second cup without a saucer and
daintily sipped.
John Hull, however.__uinphatically de
clined to take his tea in Chinese fash
ion. lie like ! the appearance of the
ornamental ware upon lift table, but
be Insisted on placing the cup in the
saucer, like a miniature flowerpot, and
used it exclusively to drink from, pre
paring tiie beverage i:i a common in
stead of an individual receptacle.
In course of t mo Kiiulainl began the
manufacture of cups and saucers, and
pictures which hive been preserved
from the >1. ; -- .if ; e Stuarts show big.
flaring cups, i'iiiip Indies across the top,
with saucers le ■ t n three inches in
diameter. 11v deuiv - one dwindled
and the "t! r . ... ded. until In the
middle of the nineteenth century* the
opposite c\.tr. aio was reached, and
fashionable ti r.ic. . had cups only '
ah inch and a ha';' in diameter, accom- j
pauied b\i.tive l,:di s iucers.
The handle of the teacup came from j
Mediterraiie- a I: >ls. Originally It
was made of tlti i. and strong earth

THE QUITTER
j When your'rq lost In tUq Wild and
you're scared ag a child,
And Death looks you bang in the
eye,
And you're sore as a boll, it's ac
cording to Hoyle
To cock your revolver—and die.
I But the code of a Man says "Fight
all you can,"
And self-dissolution is barred.
In hunger and woe, oh, it's e;isy to
blow—
It's the hell-served-for-break
fast that's hard.
"Your're sick of the game!" Well,
now that's a shame.
You're young and you're brave
you're bright.
"You've had a raw deal!" I know,
but don't squeal,
Buck up, do i your damnedest,
and fight.
It's tlio plugging away that will win
you the day,
So don't be a piker, old pard!
Just draw on your grit; it's easy to
quit;
It's the keepiug-your-chin-up
that's hard,
It's easy to cry that you're beaten
—and die;
It"s easy to crawfish and crawl;
But to fight and to fight when
hope's out of sight—
Why, that's the best game of
tiiem all!
And though 70* come out of each
gruelling bout.
All broken and beaten and scarrc
Just have one more try—it's dead
easy to die,
It's the keepiug-on-living that's
> h:ird.

Damp Room Test.
To ascertain whether a rooai is damp J
or not place n welched quantity °f j
fresh lime In an open vessel in the
room ami leave it there for twenty
four hours, carefully closing the win
dows and doors. At the end of the
twenty-four hours reweigh the lime,
and if the increase exceeds( 1 per cent
of the original weight it Is not safe to
live in the room.
Silver Fox Fur.
The black silver fox fur is most val
uable when there is no silver in it—
when it is a pure rich black th^uigh
out. A dressed skin of this sort aver
ages 30 by 111 inches and will easily
bring $.V>on. A good silvery skin,
clear and pure in color, with bluish
underwool, Is worth ubout $2,000.
Cheap Carpet Cleaner.
"What can I use to clean carpets?"

"Iluve you tried your young hus
band''" replied the answers editor,
who lost his position just a few hours
after the reply appeared.—Cleveland

CONFISCATE THE EDIfON.
Newspaper Issues Often Suppressed
by the Aujtrian Censors.
"By order of the "royal press court'
this Issue of your j • t j>or is hereby
confiscated for printing news which
the com! consolers should not lie mude
puhllc." A |H>lii'i>iUiiii. Willi n sword
dangling at li s side and holding in Ills
hand an official document with an im
posing seal ou it, enters the managing
editor's room and delivers the decree.
It is the fatuous Austrian press cen
sorship nlie] confiscation machine, call
ed for short the "confiscation appara
tus," at work. I>own below the big
presses are thundering along on the
last few thousand copies of*a hig cir
culation. It is :5 o'clock in tiie morn
ing—loo late to "make over" by tear
ing out t!y oflVniMug article or news
item, putting something else in its
place and reprinting the entire edition.
From the numerous rooms which
make tip the editorial sanctum there
rolls one "Iionnerwofter!'' and "Ver
dainmt!" after aiiotln r. The mailt, glng
editor orders a srn.iil sheet, not much
larger than a handbill, hastily printed,
that will till the subscribers why they
will not receive their paper that morn
ing.
Tl is is a scene which has takes
place frequently in Viennese newspa
per offices lately. One afternoon re
cently the editions i'f five evening pa
pers were confiscated. Probably no ed
itors in the world ' an tell as many in
teresting stories of news that never
reached their readers ns the Viennese.
From an American viewpoint of a
free press the Austrian press laws,
press cen- orship sind "confiscation ap
paratus'' is about the most absurd and
antiquated institution In existence.
Apparently it was created largely for
the purpose of keeping the truth from
the public.
In Austria bo >ks. pictures, illustrat- '
ed catalogues, price lists, handbills, ad

thing that conveys meaning to the J
mind by means <>f type, pictures or i
symbols is subject to censorship. I'ntil 1
recently even private calling or "visit

rhe printer had to lay a proof of a
card before the -,p;-ess court" before he
could deliver the order.
Any distri t or sup; rior court may
