"TEMSE" AND "THAMES."
Sriffla of the Sr.jina About Setting
the River un Fire.
Sometimes when a person wants to
make an unpleasant remark in a pleas
lint sort of way ubout a dull boy he
will say, "That bey will never set the
river on fire." Now, that is all very
true,.for even the smartest man in the
world could never set a stream of wa?
ter on fire, and so perhaps many ot
you who bnve heard this expression
hare wondered what Is meant by set?
ting the river on fire.
In England many, many years ago,
before the millers bad machinery for
sifting flour, each family was obliged
to sift its own flour. For dolug tbis
It wits necessary to use a sieve, called
a temse, which was so fixed that it
could be turned round nud round In
the top of a barrel. If it wus turned
too fn6t the friction would sometimes
cause it to catch fire, aud as it was
only the smart, hardworking boys wlto
could make It go so fnst tite people
got into the way of pointing out a lazy
boy by saying that he would never set
the temse on fire. After nwhile these
sieves went out of use, but as there
were still plenty of stupid boys In the
world people kept on saying that they
would never set the temse on fire.
Now, the name of the river Thames
la pronounced exactly like the word
temse, and so after many years thuso
persons who bnd never seen or heard
of the old fnshloned sieve thought that
"setting the temse on fire" meant set?
ting tbe river Thames on fire. Tills
expression beenme very popular and
traveled fn*' and wide until tbe people
living near other streams did not see
why it was any harder for a slothful
boy to set the Thames on fire than any
other river, and so the name of the
river was dropped, aud everybody after
that simply said "the river." meaning
tbe river of his particular city or town,
and thnt is how. it i9 that people today
talk of setting tbe river on fire.
