The Japanese © has been found so useful king of books that would: if ordinary book paper a be too bulky for convenient g a distinct » in common with the Americar de product. 1% has a strerigth r. that cannot be pro- duced here. and, as it is handmade, it is more eastly than" any other kind. This paper is made from the bark of certain' Japanese plants, which is cut striy sore of which may be a yard long. These strips are then tied up into bundles and put to soak in a weak solution of lye, by which they are softened su ently to be worked without: break : The real work of making the paper then begins » strips of bark are laid flat and irated into fine fibers with a 'special form of mallet, and this step in the process is so carefully done that the fibers obtained are much longer than these produced in a pulpmaking machweie. When the fibers have been separated they are spread gout og a sieve. By shaking the mass in the sieve the fibers .are swelled out and drained of lye. The Japanese do not use the animal' glue found in American papers and which haz such a rank odor, but employ instead a cement obtained from the roots of one of their native plants. "When th: fibers have been drained and settled down in the sieve and the cement is introduced the pulp is spread on a board with a soft instru- ment and rubbed down smooth and to the desired thicknges, or perhaps thinness would be\ the better word. The board with jta thin coating of pulp is then put out intd the sun to dry, and when this has been acoom- plished the sheet of paper peels off th: board as a sheet of remarkably tough paper. The Japanese use this' sort of paper: instead of window glass. It is also twisted into threads of great strength, which are used in embroidery and other kinds of orna- mentation. The native painters, ow- ing to its porousness, find it special. ly adapted to their colors, and it is unsurpassed for writing on with india ink.

I is recorded of Tarquin the Proud, seventh emperor of Rome, that an old woman came to him with nine books, which contained, she said, oracles. She asked an enormous price fee them, and when the emperor re- fused she flew into a rage, threw shree of the books into the fire and still asked the same price for the re. mainder. The emperor again refus- ed, and she thereupon threw three more into the fire and still asked the same price for the three remain- ing. This so astonished the emperor that he botight the three at the price for which in the first instance he might have had the nine. These were ' the Sibylline books, long looked upon by the Romans as divine oracles. A Delicate Point. They are a happy couple. They haven't been married very long.

If was long a current tale that the model for another painting by Meis- sonier, entitled "The Brawl," actual- ly died as the result of long posing in an unnaturally strained position for one of the two intertwined and struggling combatants in the picture This was not true.
