In each case the mixture is just stiff enough to drop by small spoonfuls on to a greas- ed sheet, where they must hold; their shape without spreading -- wherefore it is evident that they are heavier than our usual drop batters.

Gigantic Argentine" Oil Deal Is Reported LONDON.--One of the biggest oil deals in years is about to be complet: ed between the Royal Dutch Company and the Argentine Government, invol- ving millions of pounds sterling, it was learned reliably last week. Under the deal,-the Royal Dutch is to take over the entire Argentine state-owned ofl flelds known aa the "Yacimtentos Petroliferos Fiscales," as well as huge néw concessions in Northern. Argentina. It was understood that the plan in- cludes the payment of a huge lump sum to the Argentine Government by "But whoso shall cause one of these little ones that believe on me to! 'stumble."

"It is:profitable for him that a great millstone should be hanged a- bout his neck, and that he should be sunk in the depth of the sea," The Jews used two kinds of millstones, one, a small one, turned by the han'l of women, and the other, a large one such as Christ here mentions, so hea- vy that it. must be turned around on the lower millstone by an ass driven in a circle.

There is a very aticient legend re- corded by Mennius that one of the wonders of Ireland was the four metal- lic circles surrounding the Lakes of Kil- larney, These circles were of tin, lead, iron and copper. Further mention of this made in the Sennachas Mor, where it is recorded that anyone found dig- ging a mine without the permission of the owner was subject to a penalty. Art of Enamelling The metals used in those far-off days were cast, and ornamented by means of enamelling, inlaying, gilding, en- graving, piercing and filigree work, aud were often set with.precious stones. The art of enamelling of the purely Celtic style commenced before the ar- rival of the Romans in Britain, and was produced in greater perfection by the Celts inlabiting the British [sles than by any other people. It is inter- esting to note that our fame in enam- clling had spread over the Continent, because Philostratus, a Greek, had left a curious work entitled "The [cones," in which he writes: "They say that the barbarians wha "live in (or by) the Isles of the Ocean pour colors on to heated brass, and that they adhere, become as hard as stone, and' preserve the designs which are made in them." In early Christian times, every fin- ished piece of vork was blessed, and if this was omitted the workman was subject to a fine, deducted from his hire, and equal to one-seventh of the cost of his feeding. The artist was. usually paid one-ninth the actual value of a finished article, stich as a bracelet, while for a-gold ring he only received one-twelfth of its actual value, Origin of the Plaid Brooch Penannular Celtic brooches show a wonderful varicty of design and exqui- site delicacy and perfection of execu- tion. Their peculiarity was (he way in' which they were worn, with the pins pointing upwards, . As these pins were usually very long, they must have been a source of worry to their owners. In- the Brehon Laws women were exempted from liability to fine if any- orie received an injury from the pin of their brooch which was worn on the bosom, Men also were exempted if they wore their brooches on either shoulder. 'L'his may have been the origin of the plaid brooch now worn by men. Celtic brooches were were worn singly, while Scandinavian brooches were oval and were worn in pairs, being attached by a chain, round, and Their Names J New York.--The names of Henry, Pu-Yi, who was recently enthroned as Emperor Kang Teh of Manchoukuo, are pronounced differently in Japan hi China.
