Show -- THE PAYSONIAN, PAYSON, fJTAH, JANUARY 13, 1922. v koooooooockoooo oooooo oooooooooooooo IDEA OF 'h Countries Succeed in Avoiding Some of Our Problems With Canals and Small Cars: Disgruntled moderns who comment cynically on the people who flatten their noses against the windows of the trick and novelty shops, comiUalnlng that these represent the intellectual attainments of the American multitude, may eusily modify their views by a trip to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Perhaps the most widely known of the novelty shop commodities is the glass with a small hole in its side through which the water trickles on Its unsuspecting user. Such a trick as this, say the high brows, is for Americans the highest known form of humor. Perhaps they're right, but anyhow this invention Is by no means a modern one. At the time in England when Addison, Steele, Swift, Defoe and other more or less well known literary lights of the Queen Anne period were writing their greatest works for the edification of the world, the fashionable English glussmakers were turning out wineglasses with the same little perforation in the side. History does not record whether the onlookers shouted with glee at the poor victim in those days, but Its more than a fair bet that they did. The trick glass of that period as shown at the museum was an even more ingenious device than that of the present, for around the rim of the glass was a border of flowers, in the center of one of which was the per foratlon. On the side opposite the hole the flowers were arranged In a special pattern which informed the man who wus in on the joke where he might safely put his lips. New York Sun.
