POLICE AND FIREMEN'S THANKS With this amendment added to the City Charter, the firemen and policemen are entitled to the standard working day of eight hours.

SCIENCE KEeps TAB ON LOURDES PILGRIMS Physicians Examine Invalids Who Visit, Shrine The age of miracles is over, but the Little French town of Lourdes is now aware of the fact. This is today the leading shrine of Europe, and hundreds of thousands of pilgrims annually visit it, many of them in search of a cure for incurable ills. There have been many surprising instances of healing performed by the waters of the Lourdes, and scores of physicians come every year to watch and investigate the cures. Everything is done with a scientific thoroughness that is characteristic of the French, whose passion for clear thinking is such that they will investigate even what some of them consider supernatural phenomena with the microscope. Invalid coming to Lourdes are registered at a bureau, and examined by eminent physicians before and after they have visited the shrine. The village of Lourdes lies in a picturesque site on the eastern slope of the Pyrenees, in the tar south of France. Two dashing mountain streams foam together where the town stands, and over it looms a great precipitous rock topped by a castle of the Middle Ages. The mountains are velvet green with forest, the air is clear and soft. The streets of the ancient town are quaintly pleasing, the old houses standing row on row in quiet dignity. The population of the place is only about 5,000, but a million pilgrims visit it every year. The history of Loudese since the miraculous apparitions of fifty years ago has been written and rewritten a hundred times. The gist of it all is that a little peasant girl saw the Virgin in eighteen separate visions, in one of which she was directed to seek a certain spring. Since then the waters of the spring have been regarded as possessed of miraculous powers. NO BLUE MONDAY HERE Alaskan Miners Use Wind to Do Washing In Alaska and throughout the more or less frozen north, laundresses are practically unknown. The miners do their own housekeeping and their own laundering. A cylinder about thirty inches long and of the same diameter as the head of the churn is first constructed of heavy galvanized iron. One end of this cylinder is left open and the head of the churn is fastened to the open end. The cylinder is then carebalanced in the churn and the churn bearings are fastened on with rivets and solder to make them watertight. Two meshes of galvanized wire of one inch mesh are then made. One of them is suspended from the movable head by one-quarter inch galvanized iron rods and the other fastened to the cylinder, so that the two are about ten inches apart in the middle of the cylinder. The clothes are confined between the two screens. The water surges back and forth through them until they are clean, or as long as the churn is in motion. A large pinwheel attached to the bearings furnished the turning power.—Popular Mechanics. If the average woman had to choose between brains and beauty she wouldn't hesitate long. REFUSED TO SALUTE UNIFORM REFUSED TO SALUTE UNIFORM Of An American Soldier Because A "Negro" Officer Wore It Another "Negro" Officer Stripped of His Uniform and Forced to Flee in Disguise By Southerners.

Negroes who are retiring army, recently appointed a commission—the race's progress more than many of ed officer, said, last week, that two of its bitter enemies. Louisville, Ky. - Capt William Glass, twenty-four years a soldier in the U.S. army, recently appointed a commissioned officer, said, last week, that two white noncommissioned officers passed into men with heads turned, without saluting, though he was certain they had seen him. He called them back because he felt it was his duty to correct their have from military regulation. Only one of them returned. This fellow, a seaman in an answer to inquiry as to why he had not salute a Navy captain a Navy capt. Glass displayed the insignia, under his overcoat, and the sergeant again said he would not salute the gave his name and organization, saying, "You can report me if you wish." The interchange had occupied several minutes, and an excited crowd gathered. Capt Glass, apparently detrous of avoiding further unpleasantness, walked quietly away, leaving several white officers to explain to the crew. The sergeant also disappeared in the crew. No official report of the incident was given, but a group at Camp Zachary, Tamarir by Capt Glass who expressed regret that the incident had attracted the attention of obsessively and for the excitement it caused. May the good lord have mercy OUR BOYS "MEANT BUSINESS"! They Do Not Propose to Permit Lynching as Well as Insults and Denials of Civil Rights Camp Sheridan, Montgomery, Ala. — For a time it appeared there was danger of a riot, last week Friday night, but the military police took the situation in hand and at midnight everything was quiet with most of the soldiers (of the North Ohio battalion) in quarters and a cardion of sentries on with orders to arrest and hold all stranglers. The troubled started when "Jim" Long, a chaucteur, was arrestel, charged with accidentally running into a white woman, taken to police station and released on bond. Our soldiers heard that a "soldier was being taken out to be lynched" and started out to rescue their comrade. As the soldiers started through the arrests they were joined by several humiliated others, and a large number of white persons. Military police immediately went to the center of the disturbance and sent about seventy of the soldiers to headquarters for interrogation. We were later out to camp under guard, and we were ordered to militarily police, ordered all soldiers to their quarters and called all extra military police into service to keep every moving smoothly. All roads were patrolled and all automobiles stopped and their numbers taken. Our boys have a duty to perform and that is to teach the southern "cracker" that he must respect the uniform of an American soldier and that soldiers' rights regardless of the color or the race connection of the soldier. ST. LOUIS, Mo., Nov. 12—Joseph B. Sanders, of this city, who was commissioned a second lieutenant in the National army after taking a training course at Lt. Des Moines, has complained to he war department that he was compelled by white brutes at Vicksburg, Miss., to remove his uniform and that he led the city in disgrace. He was striped of his uniform and it was destroyed. Now what will the government do in this case? Lieut. Sanders is stationed at Fort Dodge, la., and sent a letter to the war department from that post. In a letter to the editor of a race paper here, Lieut. Sanders said he was inhospitably received by some "white soldiers." JACK JOHNSON'S SUCCESSOR! looks Like "Kid" Norfolk Will Soon Be the Way He Is Coming Manager Leo Flynn has found out what it is to have the color line drawn, but since "Kid" Norfolk turned the pugitive world topsy tarry by heating Hilly Miske in a 12-round decision bout few of the white heavyweights have consented to the new Afro-American star. Until Norfolk outboxed and consented to the sensational Miske there was no trouble sleeping Norfolk breezy Flynn had his start in Norfolk, but so, but now its a different tale. None of the big fellows want his game, not even such men as Frank Moran, Carl Morris, Fred Fulton and Jim Coffey. Norfolk's victory over Miske shouldn't have been such a surprise at that as he had previously outboxed Gimboat Smith and had stopped Tom Cowley. He also owned a 20-round decision over Sam McVey, that victory giving him the heavyweight championship of Pamama.

I have held several commissions in the military service, and I unhesitatingly say that I would or will at any time, salute an officer, superior or inferior, who salutes me without regard to the color of his uniform, and without regard to the fundamentals of courtesy and discipline upon which these regulations and laws are based describe this. It is no time to stand against them. I regret the incident, and want to urge every soldier to be a soldier in the full sense of the term.

BUNDY AND THE MAYOR'S TRIALS Set for Next Week—The Former Will Ask a Change of Venue Special to The Gazette St. Louis, Mo—The trial of Dr. Leroy N. Bundy, who is charged with leading a mob which killed two police men during the East St. Louis, Ill. massacre in July, has been set for Nov. 20 it is thought he will be ask a continuation a change of venue. The trial of Mamie N. Bundy, who is charged there are any number of cases of white men pending and the public fails to understand the evident desire of the authorities to push the cases of our men to a conclusion first. Dr. Bundy will have the active assistance of our citizens of this city, because they do not believe him guilty. The local N. A. A. C. P. has legal talent employed which is highly efficient, and together with the help received from outside sources, our men who come to trial, if they are orthyric citizens, will receive whole-hearted support. These trials are of vital concern to the whole race.

Glass should have prompt- ly reported those two southern soldiers, (white), who insulted him, and grossly too, by refusing to salute him because he was a “Negro.” Such “doctrine of surrender” Negroes are a positive det- riment to the race. We trust that no more of his kind in any branch of the American Army. —Allii—— Tuesday, Nov. 6, was a great Repub- ican day in Ohio. The municipalities of the state, great, medium and small, swept into the Republican column very generally. The village ‘and township elections followed suit. The common Yense of the people have rejected the cheap political ery that you have to vote for every Democrat who is running for a job if you are to be loyal to your ‘country, government and flag. When we had three-cent postage be- fore, we had also a three-cent coin, of nickel, often passed upon the unwary for a dime. We had also a two-cent coin, which was useful when two-cent postage arrived. Both coins are gone now; but three-cent postage is back with us again. How long it will stay, none can tell. It is made necessary by the war, we are told by way of conso- lation, ‘It is also made necessary in part by the absurd taxation policies of a Democratic Congress, which refuses to make use of the tariff to raise reve nue for the government. ah —— The Republican party—the party of Lincoln, Sumner, Tourgee and Fora- ker—was conceived in patriotism and loyalty, It saved the adminjstration loyalty. It has saved the administration at Washington when its own party was weakening on it at the outbreak of the war. It has, stood like a stone wall for ‘everything that goes to the winning of ‘the war. Never was it more worthy of its great patriotic traditions. Never did ite ome truer to form. Hence, the peple trust it, have faith in it, and will again commission it to represent them on fait ne the epportimitios offer. The sweeping decision, last week, of the U.S. Supreme Court, knocking out the vicious, insulting and harmful seg- regation laws of a number of southern cities, was won as the result of a fight made by our people of Louisville, Ky, led by Editor Wm.

While the soldiers’ and sailors’ civil rights hill was under consideration in the National House of Representatives, Congressman John FE, Miller of the State of Washington offered an amend: ment declaring that when the act ceased to be in effect at the close of the war all civil suits and prosecutions under its provisions should proceed to final judg- ment, and for that purpose the act was to continue in effect. Why such an ob viously necessary provision was not in- chided in the bill as reported by the democratic committee was not ex palined. Mr. Miller's amendment cov efed the point in a complete and detail ed manner, hat nevertheless it was thrown aside in favor of a similar pro- vision offered by a Democrat from Ohio, thus following out the invariable custom of giving the party in power the entire credit ior any legislation en- acted DRUGGED FOR TWO YEARS.

The first men tried were thirteen OL our men, who were tied together When the jury returned with its ver dict, ten were guilty, and three were ac quitted. There are other charges agaitist these three and they will have to stand trial again, ‘The ten men will appeal and have the financial support of the St Louis branch of the NALA.

There is feeling here that ther penalty was severe and upon the evi lence they should have been given a much lighter sentence, IF NOT EN- TIRELY ACQUITTED, A lawyer friend of mine who heard the trial said they should have been acgititted.

Three more re on trial and the sentiment seems to he that they will be given the sume pun ishmemt for like crimes. There is some criticism because our men were tried first. Some find consolation in this and an omen that the white men will be st erely. punished, It is fair ty presume that the only reason the number of our men convicted so largely outnumbers the whites is because thirteen were tried ima bunch the very first thing, ten being convicted, while ONLY TWO WHITES have had their trials completed and they also were convicted. \ Hew case Is called as rapidly as one is finished It is well to remember that the jury which convicted our men was made up entire ly of white men, — The prosecution hinged its case largely on the testimony Of a poliey-writing Negro, named Wil: son, and it resolved itself into a case of identification, The closest Wilson ever got the defendants to the scene of the murder inthe testimony was eight blocks away. ‘The nearest he xot them, to the hour, was an hour and ten min- utes too early, One of our lawyers told me he believed the jury. conscien tious in its verdict It is tee, beyond the shadow of a doubt, it the Jury: be lieved our ten men guilty, they were tov lacking in the powers of discrimination to permit them to pass on the ease, ac cording to the law. and the evidence The thirteen men, with one possible ex- ception, were hard-working men who did not believe in idling their time away, Three belonged to the masonic lodge, two were odd fellows, the majority. of the others were pythians or members of some other fraternal society, and prac- tically all were church members, The chief witness against them was kept hhidden by the prosecution, and was him- self under surveillance. These men wil get their day in court and will secure justice if it is to be had in this country, as the case will go as far as the U.S) Supreme Court, if necessary. Belle- ville, Il, where these trials are_heing held, is as fair a white community as can, as a rule, be found, That there will he mistakes in righting the great wrong which has been perpetrated, Tiere is not much doubt; that there has been some mistake in the case of some of our first ten men sentenced, most of tis believe; that some members of the race in East St. Louis, during the mas- sacre, in their zealousness to protect themselves probably committed some ex- esses thoughtlesly that might, have ‘made them amenable to the lav, is high- Jy probable; but that a deliberate at- tempt to whitewash the investigations and trial of the guilty has or will be undertaken, there is no. present evi- dence, and 1 DO NOT BELIEVE there will be any, However, we are all with- holding our judgment’ until these trials progress to the place where we cat in- telligently pass on the question, whether or not we are securing « sqtiare deal ‘During the massacre far miore white ‘people were killed than was reported through the daily press.

Judge Morgan reserved sentence. Delwright said he came to this country three months after the war broke out to escape military service and continue his study of medicine. He said his father and brother are in the British service. Owinska is in the People's drug store, Central Ave. and E. 3rd St, and was quite a "social bird" with certain people. It's all now. The gambling hell on the top floor of the Clayton block has reopened after having been closed many weeks. Another result of the re-election of Mayor Masehke Davis is noted in the return to the city of dozens of gambler homes. Mayor Masehke Davis, Chief Rowe made them town several weeks before election. Now that he has been deposed, they are flocking back to the city and the gambling hells are being reopened and run at "full blast." Our ministers and the members of their churches who joined with "Starlight" to help re-elect Davis and "Star's" first heanteen, Tom Fleming, help them defeat the "Drys," urging the mayor to the "deeply emotional" results. Their "preaching" and "exhorting" are bearing great (5) "truth." "Starlight Boyd's application for a new license for his saloon was denied, Tuesday, by County Liquor License Commissioners Horn and Krause. He was given a hearing, this Friday, and if he fails, he will be sentenced him, the decision will be final. The specific charges are that he permitted gambling and maintained a place bearing a "notorious and unsavory reputation." The charges were made by Charles Roman, state liquor license inspector, and others. "Maschike-Davis" policemen, asked by the board to report on the place, gave a "clean bill" to Boyd and "odored" Roman, investigating for the state report on he found gambling for money conducted openly in the saloon. The bartender, he said, sold drinks to intoxicated men without question and in the presence of Boyd. One was so drunk he fell out the front door upon the sidewalk, Roman said. Another state investigator reported: "Drunken men could stand in front of Boyd's saloon, and would assault women who were passing by." Others wrote the board that "Star's" saloon was "notorious and of unsavory reputation." Subscribe Now! TYPEWRITER HELPS SOLVE FORGERIES MACHINE FOUND TO HAVE "HU MAN" ODDITIES. Expert With Aid of Ruled Glass Can Discover the Guilty Operator. The typewriter is not the more machine it seems. It has its little eccentricities, its little oddities here and there, its distinguishing marks that to the expert are an open book and enable him to tell, after some study, on just what make of machine, of which vintage, a document has been written and, if he can find it, he can tell on which particular typewriter it was hammered out. Wherefore it would seem that, with the typewriter detective on the trail, the forger, the "polson pen" writer and others who seek to cover their tracks by resorting to the typewriter would have to give it up. A lawyer of Herkimer, N. Y., was charged with having altered an affidavit in the case hinged upon seven letters which, it developed, had been inserted in the document in typewriting. These letters not only established that the two words which they made had been inserted seven years after the original document had been written, but resulted in the identification of the machine on which they had been written and the conviction of the lawyer who owned it. A man named Bennett had brought suit against a manufacturing company on the grounds that it was illegally manufacturing a seamless basket which he had invented. After two trials and as many reversals, the suit finally reached the Appellate Court again. There it practically devolved on whether the baskets were the same as that patented by Bennett. In an affidavit by the manager of the company appeared a statement to the effect that the company had manufactured metal baskets on which no royalties had been paid Bennett. The lawyer for Bennett said that he would not argue the case, as the court could see that the affidavit admitted that the company manufactured "the same" baskets as that manufactured by Bennett. The court's copy, it was found, had the words "the same", while other copies did not. The question immediately arose as to who had inserted the words "the same" in the court's copy of the affidavit. A typewriter expert was called into the case. He had the words copied on several machines and submitted to Bennett's lawyer and after an examination swore that the words had been inserted by one of them. He pointed out that the body of the affidavit had been written on one make of machine with one kind of type and that the inserted words had been written on another machine with slightly different type. Then he astonished the court by showing how he knew. A glass plate ruled on horizontal lines was laid on the photograph of the disputed words. Viewing the photograph through this glass, it was seen that the disputed words were in slightly smaller type. It also showed the lines at the bases of the letters to be thicker. Promoters of "get-rich quick" tricks seem to turn to the typewriter as a simple means of protecting themselves. As a matter of fact, they are piling up evidence against themselves and have about as much chance of hiding behind a typewriter as an ostrich has of escaping his enemies by sticking his head in a hole in the sand. The typewriter just a few weeks ago solved what at first blush would have been regarded as a mystery not to be dispelled except by happy chance. The postmaster general at Washington had sent out an order to all postmasters. It incurred the anger of one postmaster who immediately wrote an anonymous letter back to in which he very plainly stated his vow to the matter. A veteran inspector was detailed to find the writer. Deducting that the writer had sent the letter almost immediately after receiving the orders the inspector next trained to train time tables. He discovered that between the time the order was mailed and the time the reply had been received it would have been impossible for a postmaster on the Pacific coast to have written the letter. Assuming that his deduction was correct that the writer had indicted his letter in the first blush of anger over the order, the inspector likewise eliminated the postmasters close to Washington. After considerable figuring he was enabled to fix a small zone through the middle west, extending from north to south, in which he believed he would find his man. Next he obtained from the postoffice files a list of all offices within that zone in which the postmasters were supplied with typewriters. Already he had determined by careful examination on which make of machine the letter had been written. Then he called for any reports, letters, etc., from those offices which the department had on hand. He examined them through the glass plates ruled with horizontal and vertical lines. In a report from a Texas office he found peculiarities similar to those in the typewriting of the letter he was investigating and the next day he took a train for Texas. The postmaster, confronted by this proof, resigned.

No established business can operate efficiently without inventory. The inventory tells the story of whether the business is successful or otherwise. You put almost everything you have in an inventory, and the value that you think the article bears in relation to your business. But the company are many things which go into the composite body of inventory beside personal property. There is the question of good will. There is the item of the contentment of employees. There is the question of the relation of employer to employee. There is the item of the health hygiene of artisans. And there is the final item, which is always eloquent, of whether or not the men who work are better citizens in the community in which they live. The time has come and gone when manufacturers are exclusively interested in converting raw into finished product. The time has come when all employers must be interested in the quality of manhood of the men who work. Industrial conservation means the preservation and protection of the lives, liberties and rights of men in industry as much as it does the protection of the economic agencies of manufacture. It spells industrial integrity. The age of ruthless competition is relegated to the past. The interests of employees and employers are not necessarily identical, but they are mutual. If the humblest employee in any industry is not interested in the success of the concern for which he works he should be eliminated. If the executive of any large industrial concern is not interested in the humblest toiler the executive should be eliminated. The Meaning of Co-operation. The new idea in industry is a closer kinship and deeper appreciation of the necessity for mutuality and co-operation. Co-operation means not merely the physical co-ordination of industry; it means the spirit with which the labor is performed. Co-operation is not a question of wage or hours of labor; it is an agency for the betterment of employees, stockholders and officers. If an industrial concern cannot manufacture good will, it ought to go out of business. Industrial conservation means mobilizing industrial forces, both internally and externally. It means protection, not in the tariff sense of that word, but in the sense of establishing an industrial Rock of Gibraltar against the international trade conditions which will follow on the termination of the European war. The vast economic changes to follow the European confaguration cannot be worked out by a group of men. The test of democracy depends upon the control button of everybody interested in the maintenance of democracy, independent of political, sectional or racial considerations. Just as sometimes industrial plants are reorganized, so now American industry is undergoing a process of reorganization. It is no longer an age of the brutality of competition, but of skill in bringing about co-ordination. Business now means making better men and better conditions for labor, more highly specialized vocational training, and a non-provincial outlook and realization that the eventual greatness of American industry cannot be measured in terms of dollars and cents, but in terms of the manhood of the men who constitute the fibre interwoven in our scheme of democracy. Welfare of Worker Considered. Measures designed to reduce the cost of accidents in industry, the highest degree of safety apparatus for workmen, the study of fatigue and its consequences on the operative, the development of the individual efficiency of workmen, the problem of sickness insurance, either through voluntary or involuntary plans; the study of the economic factors involved in a shorter working day, the standardization of cost systems—these and dozens of other problems are all part and parcel of industry today—Industrial Conservation.

Without it, whatever abilities you may possess lie dormant, and it is safe to say that nearly every man has more latent power than he has ever, learned to use. You may have knowledge, sound judgment, good reasoning faculties, but no one—not even yourself—will know it until you discover how to put your heart into thought and action. Industrial Conservation, New York. SWINDLING AMBITIOUS GIRLS. Young girls come to New York by the scores of hundreds, determined to win fame and much money in motion pictures. They believe they can do this. In most cases they have only a little money and very few friends wiser than themselves. Sooner or later each receives a card of invitation, signed with an unfamiliar name, but bearing every evidence of good taste and sincerity. It informs the ambitious one that the writer has learned she is open for an engagement in the pictures, and if this is so will she please call. She does call, and is met with a cordiality that might arouse suspicion in a star, but which pleases the innocent one. Very adroitly she is put in possession of the information that she is needed in the work, but three or four weeks' training is absolutely necessary to prepare her, even though she may have acted for years on the stage. And the charge will be $50. Usually, if she seems reluctant, an assistant is called into conference, and presently a special price of $25 is agreed to. If it may be surmised from the conversation that a larger sum can be obtained, the aspirant for stellar roles is told that stock may be purchased in the corporation, in amounts anywhere from $100 to $1,000, and an investor will receive enormous dividends, and the necessary preparation for screen success without tuition. A contract is guaranteed to each investor. Everybody in filumdum knows of the existence of these concerns, of which there are several that vary but little in their plan of operation. They all carry regular ads in the daily papers. It is from response to these advertisements that addressed are obtained. One concern charges an enrollment fee of $5, a dollar each for a course of twenty lessons, and confers a diploma when these have been completed. Then the new actress is advised to have a strip of film made, just to show how well she screens. The charge for this is only $25. She is assured this is essential to success. The near-riot that often ensues when a young woman shows up with her strip of film and demands the star part which has been guaranteed her, and which she believes, she has earned and paid tor, would be very funny if it were not in very many cases so tragic. This very thing would happen oftener than it does, but for the fact that studios and managers are safeguarded against all visitors.—Film Fun. How to Light a Six-Boom House It is no small task even for a good engineer to arrange the lighting of an ordinary six-room house. Of course, when lighting is being considered and figured on, such little items as paint and wall paper make a great difference in the general results. In a general way it is a good rule use light tints for both paper and paint because they reflect the light and consequently it does not require so many lamps or so much electricity to properly light the house. Dark wall paper absorbs the light and should be avoided as it is impossible to get a good lighting effect with dark tints. In laying out the plans for the following rooms it is to be understood that the walls and ceilings are tinted a light yellow or a light buff and that the wood work is only a shade or two darker. Porch light, located directly above the front door with switch in vestibule. An eight candle-power lamp is sufficient. Reception room, two ornamental ceiling lamp figurines for Tungsten 22 candle-power, lamps; controlled by button switch on the reception room side of vestibule hall, and also from the head of the stairs. This arrangement is most convenient. Living room, planned for two lighting effects. Fight light Tungsten ceiling fixtures-controlled from point near reception room entrance. This fixture may be installed so that a push of the button throws on one, two, three or five of the lights. A reading lamp is also provided for the table. Dining room is lighted with an ornamental pendant lamp hanging low from the ceiling. The lamp should be about 40 candle-power. Kitchen lighting is obtained from a single ceiling lamp switched on or off from wall near dining room entrance. Basement lighting should always be controlled from head of stairs with an indicating switch, enabling one to turn light on before going down stairs and turn it out after returning to the kitchen. In the modern home of today, where so many electrical appliances are used, it has become quite the fashion to install wall sockets for such conveniences as the electric iron, fans, small motors, chatting dish, cookers, and other heating devices. The upstairs hall light should be controlled from the head of the stairs. Bed room lighting should be controlled from a point very near the entrance. Wall brackets are used, their position varying with the style of furniture used. The bath room should be lighted with a wall lamp on each side of the mirror. Suitable wall sockets for such heating devices as the shaving mug, water heater, massage machine and luminous radiator to be provided. Small Tungsten lamps are suitable for all the ustensile lighting. Something for Jones. Something for school Drill Sergeant (sarcastically to little Jones, who is constantly out of step)—'Company, all except Private Jones, change step!' I really 'avent the 'eart to trouble 'im again!' THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, NOVEMBER 17, 1917 NO, THIS ISN'T TO EAT, IT'S A CITY Here's Where the Rodaya Live, an Utterly Unregenerate Caste. The old-time capital of Ceylon is a city rich with the usual picturesqueness of the east, and having two or three unusual points about it as well. In Kandy you will find the Rodaya caste, one of the new Buddhist castes whose origin is a matter of history. Kandy, too, contains the most sacred object in the orient, no less a relic than a tooth of Buddha. These two features are Kandy's principal claims to fame and interest. It is written that the Rodaya had their origin in the sentence pronounced by an old time king, who charged that they served his table with the flesh of pick instead of the flesh of deer. For this crime he made them the lowest of all castes, and their lot has not been a happy one there are perhaps 500 of them left today, they may be seen daily around the outskirts of Kandy. They are not allowed to live in houses, but inhabit miserable leannots. They have no recourse to native courts of justice, although under the English law they are not discriminated against. They may not use a bridge, but have to swim all streams. They must know when addressing the higher castes. When the shadow of one of them falls upon food the food cannot be eaten. Generations of this organized outcastery have naturally enough driven the Rodaya into all manner of objectionable habits. They are not nice about their bill of fare, nor particular about the ten commandments. The men are an unlovely crew, but the women, strangely enough, are among the comeliest in Ceylon. Men and women, they are incurable wanderers vagabonds. The Rodaya are a pretty clear case of people who have been made what they are by persecution. There is something ironical in their worship outside the great temple—they are not admitted within—for it stands for the system that cast them down. The temple shields what is believed to be a tooth of the Buddha himself. The fact that the tooth in question is two inches long and an inch in diameter casts a certain amount of doubt upon the authenticity of this belief. Africa is Less Dark. Africa is no longer merely the land of wild game haunts, where savage man and savage beasts lurk in impenetrable jungles. The belt of civilization that almost completely circles the continent has been enroaching on the wilds rapidly of late, and the development of vast natural resources that have been, merely scratched bids fair to grow at an unprecedented rate. One Englishman asserts that Africa is "the young man's opportunity," when the rest of the world is considered. Even the Sahara desert, in all its untamed desolation, appears in a less formidable light since the completion of some recent explorations. Between the northern fringe of states and the River Niger a great grassy plateau has been discovered in the very heart of the desert. It receives nearly a foot of rainfall a year, and is covered with verdure and little lakes. Moreover, the rain belt is extending further north every year, and the desert is retreating before it. It may not be many years before the enterprising settler will be irrigating the Sahara, and the automobile's "honk" will be entwoving the lion in the one-time jungles. Among the Eskimos. The Stefansson Anderson Arctic Expedition, sent out by the American Museum of Natural History in cooperation with the Geological Survey of the Canadian government, has resulted in a more extended knowledge of the Eskimos than the world has possessed hitherto. After five years among these people, Mr. Stefansson has procured phonographic records of the songs and stories of the Eskimos and made a dictionary of the words used in their various ceremonials. He took measurements of heads and numerous photographs of individuals. Their manner of gathering food and subsisting in the barren ice fields is most remarkable, since no white man has ever been able to venture into the Arctic, without a ship haden with supplies, except to face starvation. The leaders of the expedition donned Eskimo clothes, which are said to weigh no more than a spring suit, and still allow one to sit comfortably on a block of ice and with the back to the ground, while the other is in it while the temperature is fifty below zero, and feel the cold only in the face. The Heathen. A Baptist minister, at the close of his sermon, announced that in the course of the week he expected to go on a mission to the heathen. One of the parishioners said afterward: "Why, you have never told us one word of this before. It finds us un prepared. What shall we do?" "Brother," said the minister, solemnly, "I shall not leave town." Try a little baking soda and hot water when cleaning kitchen utensils. 224R 2212 - Girls' one piece, plated dress, with sleeve in either of two lengths.
