tare alone books could be filled with
the mere names of works, never to
mention the mutilated state of many
tbat survive. The causes of loss are
few. Fire Is tbe mast common. Ben
Jenson by tbe fire In his bouse lost an
entire drama of the life of Henry V.,
with notes, and a number of other
works. The fire of London was respon
sible for the loss of many valuable
works of tbe Elizabethan period and of
much early English poetry. A severer
blow to lovers of Anglo-Saxon litera
ture was tbe burning of the Cottonian
library In 1731, when a vast quantity
of old manuscripts was destroyed. Iu
1752 by a fire in Lincoln’s Inn Fields
a large collection of manuscripts and
pamphlets, gathered with great labor
by Lord Chamberlain Somers, was lost.
About tbe same time- Davies’ notes on
Cicero’s "De Offlclls” were loBt by a
fire in Strand, London.
Tbe second great cause of loss Is the
ocean, whose “greedy maw’’ swallows
all kinds of treasure so remorselessly.
Early in tbe fifteenth century Guarlno
Veronese was returning to Constanti
nople with a shipload of classical man
uscripts. The vessel was wrecked and
the treasures lost, a misfortune which-
turned tbe scholar's hair white In a few
hours. Our own Spenser suffered seri
ous loss by shipwreck of a servant
crossing from Ireland.. The last six
books of tbe “Faerie Queeno” and a
number of translations and poems, In
cluding “Dreams,” “The Court of Cu
pid" and “The Hell of Lovers," were
thus consigned to a watery grave. In
1600, on tbe death of Vlncentlo Plnelli,
his library was packed in three vessels
bound for Naples. One was attacked
by pirates, who flung out the books
and papers Into the sea and along tbe
shore, some of the latter being picked
up by the,Inhabitants and used to stuff
windows with. Toward the close of
the last century a servant of Warbur-
ton came across a unique mass of man
uscript plays, which she used up in
lighting fires and making pie crust
frills. And everybody remembers how
a domestic of John . Stuart Mill con
signed to the flames a part of Car
lyle’s “French Revolution." The hor
ror of MU) at tbe loss and tbe “agony 1 ’
of Carlyle in rewriting the work are
now matters of history.
A very curious loss was occusloued
In Italy iu the fourteenth century
when Itaimondo Sornuzo lonned the
manuscript of Cicero’s “De Gloria” to
a friend, who pawned It and died be
fore Its hiding place could be discover

Paradise Myths.
Paradise opinions seem to owe much
of thell- 'popularity to peculiar local flt-
uea&. The Inhabitants of the Kongo
basin believe that pnradls,e is a “valley
of peace," where good spirits float
about continually engaged in catching
mosquitoes and thus protecting the
sleep' of kings and great men who are
In a perpetual slumber.
Tbe Inhabitants of the hot, sandy,
sbndeless desert island of Botocu im
agine paradise to be a land of cool
streams, shaded by gigantic forest
growths. It may -be well to mentlob In
this connection that the heaven ideas
of all desert dwellers pictures a thickly
wooded hereafter.
The Yokoots of eastern Siberia be
lieve that heaven will be a country
provided with ready lighted fires and
many blubbering kettles and fish oil.

Before tile year 1031 English colus
were simply, pieces of metal stamped
by driving a die down on them with a
hammer. In the days when money had
a much greater Intrinsic- value than It
ha -. now this offered n great temptation
to coin clippers, and mutilation of the
coinage became such a serious offense
that men were hanged and women were
burned for It. So far (lid the mutilation
go that when Sir Isaac Newton was
appointed master of the mint In 1093 It
was calculated that the silver coins in
circulation only averaged about half
.their legal weight. The practice of
milling wns first adopted In Frnnco.
when n screw press invented by a
Frenchman was used. Tbe first milled
coins were mndo In London In 1031. but
the old stamped coins were still Issued,
and It was not until 1090 that unmllled
coins ceased to be legal tender. The
cost of making tbe milled coinage uni
versal and so putting n stop to clipping
wns £1,200.000. It was to meet this ex
pense that the window tax was levied.
