socalled dreamy celt appear ed on the dawn of history as a greasy pork merchant in ireland they had kept pigs and eaten pork from the dawn of irish history and the prime food in the celtic para dlae of ireland waa roast pig pork alao figured in the teutonic paradise ot tbe valhala why would not tbe ancient people of scotland eat pork and why did they regard the pig aa the devil t he traced this prejudice and belief to ancient egypt gan that saves life many things can be shot out of guns besides bullets and sheila an inventor baa just produced a gun rmm which a stout line can from the shoulder be shot a distance of one hundred and 1 n yards the apparatus is particularly use ful to ships yachts or lifeboats when they require ass is ance or for sending a line on to a quay or orer a wreck its use to are brigades it is believed will be valuable also the mechanism is of a simple character the gun la fitted with a stand and when placed on this the distance to which the line can bo
