MANY MODERN ‘DE’VLCEs earns KNOWN
-, To ANTIQUITY,

Ideal Common to Ilieifninclenu Repro-

duced in'tlle Patent. Office—Telescopes

C.-‘Flsh Hooks Centuries Old.

“ There is nothing new under the
sun,” sand Solonion the Wise. The
inventions of »,-modern times were

. by the ancients ages ago. Telescopes

ewere used by the astronomers of

' Babylon more" than 3,000 years back.
The workmanship of many Roman
coins proves, merely by its exceed-
ing delicacy, that the designs
were made by powerful. magnify-
ing glasses, .if not with the ~ micro-
scope. Gunpowder, unknown to Eu-
rope until_ the twelfth century, had
been a familiar substance to the Chi-
nese, and constantly employed by
them since before Christ. You can
find at the Smithsonian Institute, in
the collection of remote antiques,
many devices which are recorded at
the patent Ofiice in Washington as
new ideas, says the Washington Star.
For example, there is a fragment of a
soldier’s bronze belt, more , than 2,000
years Old, bound on the ed c with
leather,attached by the McGil patent
, paper fastener of to-day—the little in-
genious contrivance that is thrust
through two or more layers of a sub.
stance and bent down both ways to-
gether.

The relics exhibited in this collec-
tion are of the bronze age, from 2000
B. C. to 400 B. C. Among them are
razors of bronze, some of which nearly
resemble in form the razors of the
nineteenth century, while others are
crescent shaped with modern handles.
They are not in condition now to
shave with”, though hardly less so
than the tools employed by the astute
barber upon the customer who never
pays a fee. Even more wonderful
is the safety-pin with which the
Roman women, in the time before
Christ was born, fastened their gar-
ments. It was precisely like the
safety-pin Of the year 1891 A. D.', with
the little coiled spring at one end and
the catch at the other. Fish-hooks in
the bronze age were in shape precisely
what they are now, with the same bars
and the same bends of which the
famous Limerick and Shaughnessy
types are merely copies. The ends
of their shanks to hold the lines, were
either flattened or looped, just ~as at
present. In short, they were the same
articles exactly, barring the nature of
the metal.

In the Smithsonian collection re-
ferred to are. shown hatpins, with big
round heads, more than meaty cen-
turies old, in all respects resembling
those of today, though they may
have been employed merely to bind
the hair together. Also there are or-
dinary hairpins, equally ancient, like
those sold at drygoods shops on F
street and Pennsylvania avenue, and
likewise thimbles of bronze, with the
customary indentations, though such.
implements are generally supposed to
have been invented in the middle
ages 'under the names of “thumb-
bells.” Tweezers and strainers, after
the modern fashion, are included in
the same assemblage of curiOsities.
Others of the same epoch are woven
goods from the Swiss lake dwellings
that were built on piles, bronzed
heads from Rome, actually plated
with gold, bronze buttons made just
like those of to-day, bronze chains
with the same mesh precisely’as is
employed now by jewelers for watch
guards, bronze mirrors, bronze bod-
kins, bronze needles,
sickles for cutting grass or grain,

the McCormick reaper.

One of the funniest things in the
collection is a small vase with a hinge
at the top for acover—just like the
modern beer mug. It dates from be-
fore Christ. There are also stone
molds of the same epoch for casting
bronze knives, spearheads, hatchets,
sickles and other implements precisely
in the manner followed now. An an-
cient Etruscan vase shows mending
with rivets after the samemethod as
is employed in this day. Even more,
extraordinary are poniards covered in
ivory perhaps hundreds of thousands
of years ago by men of the chipped
stone or palaeolithic ages, with rain-
deer and mammoths for handles.

The Romans before the birth of
Christ did everything with respect to
printing except to print. 3 They made
stamps and stamped words and letters
on their pottery before baking it.
Their types were movable, and some-
times siugle, though not usually so.
On their lead pi'pe they cast, inscrip-
tions in raised letters. Practically
these would have served for printing
if their surface had been inked and
pressed upon the cloth ' or papyrus
used for their books and.» letters. ' It
has been said that necessity is the

for printing existed in as greats de-
gree as among any people. They had
a. Senate, which kept its journal; they
made speeches and orations; of the
making of books there was no end.
Laws and decrees were published to
the people; in fact at the same time a
newspaper was circulated. All this
was done by handwriting, yet they
had all the materials and much of the
art of printing in every day use now.
But they never caught the final idea.
