Library news Starting with this week, the library staff will answer questions on any subject that Perquimans County residents are curious about. We have received several interesting queries already. Q: I have read that the ancient Chinese used tiger whiskers in some form of torture. Is this true and if so, how can whiskers be painful? A: Tiger whiskers can be very uncomfortable if cut into tiny pieces and eaten. The Chinese would sprinkle the whiskers, which were almost invisible, in the food of their enemies. This resulted in days of pain, but was rarely fatal. Q: How did the term "slapstick" comedy originate? A: In the early days of slapstick comedy, the actors often used a paddle designed to produce a loud whacking sound. The paddle, or slap stick, lent its name to the type of comedy. We are sorry that because of limited space, we cannot answer all questions. Please send your questions to : Perquimans County Library, 110 W. Academy St., Hertford, NC, 27944. The Bookmobile will be on the "A" route on Friday January 25. Please call the library for the schedule (426 5319). Story Hour is held every Friday from 10-11 a.m. for children 3-5 years of age.
