STANDARDS0F MEASURE
So far as we know at present tho
standard measuring Instrument for Ilu
car measures In Hgvpt, Persia, Uiby
Ion, Gieece, nnd. In fact, alt the east
ern countries, was the cubit, which was
divided In various wavs, that of the
Talmud being divided Into digits, or
finger bteudths, palms and spans, four
dlgltB being equal to ono span and
two spans to one cubit savs a writer
in Cassler s Magazine
A great deal of valuable icsearih has
bun made bv eminent metrologlsts to
nscertaiu the length of tho cubit an
used b the various nations who made
It their standard We would naturally
Imagine that all the cubits were of una
length but n hen we conslde r that c-ur
own foot measiuc lias varied so much
(nine jnd one-qunrtcr Inches) from Iti
present recognlztel value, nc should not
be surprised to find that the cubit va
ried fiom IS.M to 25 1 I m lies In Kgvpt
The cubit of the fouith d) nasty varied
from 20fi to 20.51 Inches, only about
one-ttnth of an Inch 'I he dividing
plotting scales ljlng on the drawing
board of the statue of Gudea equaled
20 SO Incites. The Ilahj Ionian cubit
was almost exactly of the same length
as the Kgjptlun cubit ot the fourth
d v nastv . V iz 20 C and 20 5 Inches. The
Pet shin cubit seems to have been
rather short, measuring 19 2 Inches;
but according to a recent writer there.
Is good evidence of anothu cubit
measuring about 25 2" inches .
The cubit of the llebtcw nation ac
cording to a number of invcstlgatois,
beems to have been 21 l Inches, al
though Lieut Tottcn Insists, and seeing
to have pioved, that the value uf the
lew h-h as well as the Kgxitlan sacred
cubit nas exactly 25 Inches
There Is considerable difficult In
connecting the links between ancient
and mediaeval mctrologv fur no sharp
lines can be diavvn, and there Is a pe
riod of more than a thousand jears
over which the connection of units
of measure Is very uncertain Tho
Delgis foot was pinhably carried over
to (licit Ilrltaln In the tenth centuij
Its values as the foot now measures,
nas 13 22 Inches but It bad coma In
contact nlth the legal foot, which was
cnfoired b law as early ns the jear
950. Had the Heinle foot of 13 22 Inchci
been adopted Instead of tin legal foot
of 12 Inches, on!) a vcr) small change
would have to bo made to mnko It one
third of a meter, the meter bcliu about
39.17 Indus, ami tluce times the value
of the Heinle foot would be only 0 J'l
of an Inch longer than the meter. Hut
the edict of King iknrj I had placed
the value of tho foot at 12 Inches, or
one-third of the legal yard, which In
turn was supposed to be one-half tho
distance between tho tips of the fin
gers of the outstictehed arms of King
Ileni) In tho jear 1321 A I) In the
lelgn of IMwnrd II, a statute was
enacted that mudo the standard Inch
equal to "three barlc)torns lound and
di) ' and twelve such Inches made one
foot Who of us that have lived out
our half centurv do not icmembei tho
old long measure table commencing
with "Three baric ) coins make ono

CHANDLER SAYS THERE

Too Many Little Things Forced on the
Executive Wears Out Presi

Washington, Jan 5 The Washing

and Important article by ct-Senalor
William K. Chandler, president of the
.Spanish Claims Commission, entitled,
Wanted, by the United Slates, a Presl
dent The article Is a strong nrgu
ment for n reform In the pre 3ctit meth
ods of conducting executive business
Mr Chandler assorts that n Ptcsldcnt
has now onl) three objects lu his life
first to sec 20 000 people a )eur, sec
ond to accomplish 2000 llttlo things,
nnd third to to to do 200 great things
In the seeing of so man) thousand peo
ple about trivial matters nnd In giving
his attention to the thousands of little
things, the President, Mr. Chandler In
s'ets, Is worn out and becomes physl
call) unable to grapple nlth tlm great
ptoblcms to which he o.ight to give his
undivided attention.
Mi Chandler cites from personal
know ledge the cases of Picllfiits who
have almost Biucumbed undc" the
utraln. Instancing particularly Pr"al
dent Arthur. In whose Cabinet he nai

Oil ineller attributes Innblllt) to recover
fiom the shock ot the as.ialn's bil

that President Roosevelt, "even with

picient untiring lndttstr) and energy,
I as riven countenance to tin- ld".i thai
lie n II do nil tho appointing MmseK
and b-ar nil that an) one h. s to 3jy

Chandler thinks tin; t'i- grtst
n eight ot the pressure for olllec ought
to till til.on the Cabinet Mlu'stero, all J
that the President ought to have more
time for Important tilings - What Is
wanted In the person of Mr Iloosc

encroached upon the time ind p..tlciuc
of our Presidents nnd k"pt them from
tbelt public work or cutupcllcci them
lei do It b) Impairing th-lr ph steal
health and overstraining their mental

"The time has come when arcess to
the President, except Jt public recep

Ministers, Senators, Itepiei-ntntlvej
nnd Kmbassndurs aud to such other
persons only as nro given Interviews

of the President should bo few. and
there should be no Intrusion! upon his
