Drums are probably an eastern idea introduced by the crusaders into Eu rope. They are frequently mentioned in accounts of the first crusade. When Edward 111. of England and his queen made triumphal entry into Ca lais in* 1347 “tambours” were among the instruments which were played in their honor. Another of these was called a “nacaire” or kettledrum, tak en, together with its name, from the Arabs, The poet Chaucer also men tioned this instrument in his tion of the tournament in “The Knight’s Tale.” The king generally kept a troop of these bandsmen or minstrels in his employ, and we read that Edward 11. on one occasion gave a sum of 60 shillings to Roger, the trumpeter; Janino, the nakerer, and others for their performances. An other minstrel w T as called the “cbe veretter,” or player on the bagpipe. The Plague and the Tan Pits. Bermondsey’s association with the tanning industry was originally due partly to its fine oak woods and partly to the fact that the London slaughter houses were to a large extent situated in Southwark, on the unfashionable side of the river. For a brief period, however, it enjoyed a certain fame as a hpalth resort. That was, as Sir Hen ry Trueman Wood reminds us in “In dustrial England In the Eighteenth Century,’’ when “terror stricken crea tures fled from the ravages of the great plague iu the city of London to the Bermondsey tan pits to find strong me dicinal virtues in the nauseous smell.” Two Thumbed Gloves. Id so cold a climate as that of Ice land the glove must be put off or on as rapidly and easily as possible, so it is made without fingers, and in order that no time may be wasted in dis tinguishing between right and left all gloves have two thumbs. You simply thrust your hanc: into the first glove that comes and your thumb immedi ately finds its way. There are, of course, drawbacks in the matter of ap pearance, for the dangling idle thumb looks untidy.—London Chronicle. The Apocalypse. There is no other book in the New Testament about which so much has been written and to so little purpose. Dr. South said of it, “It either finds a man mad or makes him so.” It is said of Calvin that he showed his wis dom in not writing a commentary on this, as he did on other books.—Chad wick. Disadvantage In Last Resort. If you must write love letters, wait until after you are married and write them to your wife. Thenyou may feel perfectly safe—unless she decides to sue you for divorce on the grounds of insanity.—Puck.
