When was it usual to insert running
mercury in the baeks of swords?
This was a comparatively common

and seventeenth eenturies, but it v .us

• t never caimTlinto general use. it was
not, of course, used for” ffipli'rs or l!‘ e
lighter kind of swords, but the
heavier cutting swords.
The method was to cast the blade
rather broader at th** hack than usual,
with a hollow running down it. This
was half tilled with quicksilver and
sealed up. The idea was that when a
blow was struek with such n sword
the quicksilver would fly to the point
and so increase the weight of the blow.
This theoretical advantage, however,
at all counterbalance the gen
eral clumsiness of the weapon and its
unhandiness in guarding, and so the
mercuriale swords, as they were called,
from which their ingenious inventor
hoped so much, were rather military
curiosities than practical successes.—

Once he was aroused from n deep
sleep by the ringing of his night bell.
He went down to his little shop and
sold n dose of rather nauseous medicine
to a distressed customer.
“What profit do you make out
that?” grumbled his wife.
Y ha’penny,” wa9 the cheerful an
swer.
“And for that bit o’ money you’ll l.e
awake maybe an hour,” she said Impa
tiently.
‘Never grumble o’er that, woman ”
was his placid answer. “The dose will
keep him awake all night. We n ust
thank heaven we ha’ the profit and
none o’ the pain o’ this transaction.”
