BELL LORE.
This month the bill
coups two days curlier;
collector |
but. that i
frebablr Origin of the Saying “Win* ]
Tailor* Make n Man.''
The metal used fur a bell is three |
parts of copper und oat; of tin. nnd this 1
composition is ulmost us old ns the j
known history of mankind, for it wns
discovered by Laynrd in the bells of i
old Nineveh. The tin hardens the met- ,
si. but too much luukes it brittle, and j
n bell is n dainty and delicate creature ,
■lid nbc.vc all things must not lie driv- j
en to cracking. Sometimes an entbu- j
elastic ringer will bump the bell
against the wooden stay above aud
crack it. Sometimes the long falling of
the clapper on a particular spot will
tnnke a crack, and the bell should tie
turned every generation or so to make
the clapper fall on a new place. Clock
bummers are the bell’e great enemy,
for they strike it sideways and not in
the direction of Its swing, and besides
they sometimes catch it aa it sweeps
past. A ringer who to save his muscles
rings by a rope attached to the clapper
will destroy the t>e)l hi next to no 1
time.
Silver has now nnd then been tried
for bells, but. strange to say, Is almost
aa unmusical as lend. In the middle
ages, when a great bell was to lie cast
crowds of tic faithful would some
times make sacrifice of their gold and
silver ornaments und plate by costing ;
them into the melting pot, but the only
effect was to depreciate the tone.
In China and other eastern lauds J
bells are rung te frighten away devils,
and some oi the biggest bell* in the;
world are in Buddhist temples. But i
even In Christian England It wns long .
believed that hells would dissipate j
storms, nnd when they were cust there
was a solemn ceremony, ut which they
received names. This was called by the
common people the “baptism” of tbe
bell.
The bishop began the ceremony by
solemnly washing the bell with water
into which salt bad been cast; then he
anointed it with holy aud chrism oil
in the form of a cross, formally conse
crating and dedicating the bell to tbe
divine service. Candles were burned,
and the bell wne solemnly incensed.
Many old beds hud quaint nnd curi
ous inscriptions. A bell at Bbcrborne,
in 1 iorsctshlre, dated 10K!, wns evi
dently Intended chiefly as a warning
in case of lire, for it was inscribed:
l.or<l, quench this furious flame.
Arise, run, help put out the same.

More “Washing”
for Less Money.
Our business is growing rapidly ; especially the
amount of family washing done ; and the discount
on this class of work has been increased from 20
per cent, to 25 per cent. This discount holds good
on everything except collars, cuffs, shirts and shirt
waists.
Yqur neighbor has her “washing” done at the
Coweta Steam Laundry. Ask her if the work is
first class and find out if she is pleased with it.
Then send us your own “washing” and give our
work a trial.
Figure one-fourth off of prices found on our “fam
ily washing ticket” and you’ve estimated the cost.

customary glib aud complacent answer
that, roughly speaking, “will" implies I
