Tankards a Mark of Social Distinction Every Dutch family of New York's enrly days owned 2 few tankards, but in the case of unpretentious families the tankards were of wood. The possession of a silver tankard set off a family as one of prominence, and when the tankard in question was also lidded. the family was admittedly on the top rung of the social ladder.

This museum tankard, which is lidded-and with an engraving on the outside and another on the inside of the lid -was given to Sarah Jansen de Rapelje on her wedding day by her husband. Hans Hanse Bergen. Sarah was the first white child born in all the New Netherlands, which at that time included New York, New Jersey and part of Connecticut. Her parents had come to the New World in 1623 and Sarah was born 011 June 0, 1325. Fourteen years later to a day she was married--June 9, 1639.

On the outside of the lid is engraved a wedding scene, presumably that of the happy pair whose nuptials the gift I commemorated. A stiffly-ruched girl and a beruffed gentleman stand with clasped hands before a ceremoniously attired clergyman and along the edge are the words: "Young woman, the only one I love next to God, receive my confidence and heart." Creation of Eve Depicted. Rather sweet of Hans--or the silversmith.

Inside there is a lively engraving of the creation of Eve. The picture depicts a sylvan scene just after the creation has taken place. apparently. Adam and Eve are both there amid the trees and seem to be getting along pleasantly: there's a dog and a rabbit on the scene. but no snake as yet.

Here the inscription reads: "Behold the creation flesh and blood. created two out of one." This particular tankard held a pint, being designed for a lady. Gentlemen's tankards were apt to be larger, tankards made for New York gentlemen were larger, on an average.

Y. wrote in part: "It appears to me you have more or less neglected the main point of this terrible affair which enters the minds of average American family and to my way o. thinking it is this: We know that the Navy attached air to the regular air channel, but what the average American family wants to know, and this question has been evaded.

bamboozled and passed up until you would think the American public were a crowd of imbeciles, is, why was air not introduced directly to the imprisoned men. They knew life was there and they did not know there was life anywhere else. "All of us know they could not work in bad weather. There is no criticism there, but from the minute this boat went to the bottom and life WAS known to be there, it is tragic that 100,000,000 people can think but one thing and that is to get air to the boys that are alive, and our so-called brilliant engineers have not the brains or authority to use a tap drill on the side of this chamber and hook up an air line to the surface. "So far as the American people go, Wilbur can stay down in Washington until Hades freezes over, and probably it doesn't make much difference whether the Navy ever raises the S-4 or not, for the boys are out of the picture now.

But until the Navy answers that one question, which is paramount in practically every one's mind, the S-4 will represent a monument to official Madge A.

AYRES BIDDY SAUNDERS- -the Little Flapperalways called her young adopted mother, MARNA PAGET, the Lucklest Lady, for she thought Marna had everything heart could wish-youth, beauty, wealth and the love of devoted husband. But Marna was happy. She had married without leving GEORGE PAGET. and three months later had met HUGH HUBBARD and given him her heart.

He had gone to China. but after years of separation they find that they love each other as much as ever. As the Little Flapper grows older she realizes something of the situation and worries about it. Hugh returns after five years and is guest of the Pagets. Biddy realizes that she is herself in love with Hugh.

DOLLY BENSON, the Big Flapper, friend of Biddy, and RENNY MARTIN, in love with Marna, both realize how things stand between her and Hugh. So does MRS. BLAIR, an old friend. Marna, suddenly weakening, decides to return to China, but reaches the pier after his boat has sailed. Biddy is recovering from pneumonia.

The Big Flapper tells Biddy that she must give her £40 for silence about what she knows of Hugh and Marra. Biddy withcut telling what it's for, gets it from Marna. XXXIV-IS HUGH ENGAGED? 7 HAT are you thinking about?" George, asked Marna. She looked up at him. "George, if Biddy asked you for some money-a lot of money--and no questions to be asked, what would you Paget chuckled.

"Give it to her, of course." he said easily. "She's all richt. Nothing wrong about the Little Flogger." He seamed struck by the gravity of h's wife's face. "Why do you ask?" he inquired. (Marna told him.

He listened seriously then he whistled. "Humph! Sounds queer, but I don't expect it is. Give it to her. Believe in trustin' people myself till you find out that they can't be trusted, and Biddy's straight enough." "I know, but I keep remembering her mother and what she came from "Can't blame the poor kid for that." "I'm not, but it's only--if she would just tell me what she wants the money for." "She'll tell you some day," Paget said easily. "Never cross a bridge till you get to it-eh?" "Then shall I let her have the money?" "Course!" Paget had complete faith in his womenfolk; he had complete faith in all the world.

Marna drew away from him with a little shiver. "Well, if you say so," she said slowly. NOTHER fortnight- slipped unA eventfully away. The Little Flapper well, and no further allusion was made to the £40. Marna gave it to her in banknoteslaid it dressing table one night in an envelope, with her name just written outside, and the Little Flapper wrote her thanks: "I wish I could explain; perhaps some day I shall be able to.

It's nothing to be ashamed of, darling. I give you my word of honor it Marna believed her, but she never ceased to wonder. Often she found herself watching the girl with a new. vague suspicion; often she questioned her closely when she had been out alone, and instantly regretted doing so. "She'll think I don't trust her.

How hateful of me! I do trust her. I know she's all right, really." She tried hard to believe that the incident had made no difference to their complete understanding, and she knew that Biddy was trying to believe the same thing, and failing. The little rift had been made in the lute and could not be closed. Renny Martin, who stayed a away from the house since Biddy's illness, renewed his visits. "Heard from Hubbard yet?" he asked Marna sometimes and always she had to force herrelf to smile and to answer naturally as she could.

"Oh. no, there hasn't been time Then one day he told her he had some news for her. She looked up, startled. "What sort of news?" Her thoughts had flown at once to hold a smoker on Tuesday evening, Jan. 17, in the schcol hall, Nicholas ave.

"A cable! Oh!" Then instantly she recovered and tried to laugh. extravagance! Is anything the matter?" "She is going to be married." Marna was mistress of herself again. now. but her heart was thudding at suffocating speed. "Married! How romantic! She was not engaged when she left England, was she?" "No.

It's some man she met on the boat, he tells That so often happens, doesn't' it She knew that he was watching her closely, and she hated him for the pain which she knew he was deliberately trying to giye her. is the lucky man?" she forced herself to ask. "Saunders didn't seem to know." Renny Martin rose and came over to where she stood. "I suggested it might be Hubbard- -it wouldn't be altogether surprising, would it? Saunders' sister is an attractive girl, and you know what it is on a long voyage--moonlight and all the rest of "Yes." might da worce. both of them." Martin said coolly.

Ceorge Paget came intt the room at that moment: he frowned when he saw Mar in and Merna tow ther, but he spoke in h's usual cheery way. "Hello, you two! Plottin' mischief?" ARNA turned round. MI "Renny has been telling me that Mr. Saunders has had a cable from his sister. She is to be married to some man she met on the boat.

Paget dropped his eyeglass with a little click. "Not old Hugh?" he said uproariously. Marna caught her breath hard. Why did George suggest such a thing? It hurt her far more than Martin's words had done. "Saunders didn't know the name," Martin explained.

"But it might be Hubbard. saying to Marna that ail sorts things happen on dust, shipper chuckled.

Gentlemen's tankards were also furnished with whistles in the handles, so that, when used in public taverns. said gentlemen could whistle for more when the tankard was empty.

Tricking Dry Agents in Old Days. As a matter of fact, though tankards were made rather extensively during colonial days, many have disappeared by way of the melting pot, following various temperance movements which arose every so often. In some cases cherished specimens were kept from this sad fate by resourcelul owners who added a spout, and referred to their possession as a silver teapot. A spout interfered not at all with the use for which the tankard was originally intended and saved a family from many an embarrassing moment.
