Harry Fem, the artist, has written n
paper, entitled "Silk and Ccdars," for

the famous mountains Of Lebanon.
Concerning the silk industry, which
plays such an important part in the
lives of the natives, Mr. Fem says: As

A way OF serving carrots is the fol
lowing, evolved by cook desirous. as
all cooks shculd be, of something
new" The vegetable is scraped, diced
and Boiled till tender. Meanwhile q
slice CT onion IS Drowned i'll table
spoonful Of butter. With this one table
spoonful Of -four is rubbed smooth ard
stirred until the forr is cooked. Then
one cup of tomato juice, not heated, is
added 20 the mixture with a half tea
spoonful of salt and dash of pepper
The whole is stewed together three or
four minutes before being strained over
the carrots, which have been drained.
This dish is much more palatable than
the creamsd carrots because it adds q
needed flavor and is noEe the harder TO
prepare than the better known prepara-
tion. New York Post.

Money No Longer Needed.

does away largely with the use Of
money.

other one needs should go to the
needy one-but not without return
He must in turn help some Other
needy oGa with something he has

procession moves until the first msn
is helped and gets his own back
again, but in seme other form more
useful to him. Not cent OF raoney
would be necessary, except to buy
things produced outside the member
chip of the Exchange, in an ideal
community organized on the Labor
Exchange plan. II fact it is intend
cd to be what its name gugge ts-s

Financial striugency" would thus
cut no figure, especially where, as the
system conducts store under It's
own auspices.

man will turn whatever he has that

A SEA ABOVE THE CLOUDS
Extraordinary Superstition Once Preva-
lent In England.

Extraordinary Superstition Once Preva-
lent In England.
The curious superstition that there is
an ocean above the clouds is illustrated
by the following strange story by an
old English writer: Zone Sunday the
people of a certain village were coming
out of church on a thick, cloudy day,
when they saw the anchor Of ship
hooked to one of the tombstones-the
cable, which was tightly stretched,
hanging down from the air The people
were astorished, and while they were
consulting about it suddenly they saw
the rope move as though some one Ia
bored to pail up the anchor. The an-
chor, however, still held fast by the
stone, and great noise was heard il
the air, like the shouting of sailors.
Presently sailor was seen sliding down
the cable for the purpose of unfixing
the anchor When he had Just loosened
it. the Villagers seized hold of him, and
while i'll their hands he quickly died,
just MS though he had been drowned.
About an hour after the sailors
above, hearing no more of their COM
raGe, cut the cable and sailed away. In
mcnory of this extraordinary event the
people Of the village made the hinges
of the church doors out Of the iron Of
the anchcr" II is further stated that
these hinges "aro still TO be seen there"
bit of evidence much like Munchau-
sens rope wherewith he once climbed
TO the Inocn. If you doubted the story,
you were confronted with the rope.
There is another queer tale about
this aerial ocean. "A merchant of Br;s-
tOl," it is said, 'set sail with his cargo
for Ireland. Some time after, while his
family were at supper, knife sudden
ly fell IN through window On the ta-
bic. When the merchant returned and
saw the knife, he declared it TO be his
own and said that on such day. at
such an hour, while sailing in an un
known part of the sea. he dropped the
knife overheard, and the day ard the
hour were found to be exactly the time
when it fell through the window" All
of which was once implicitly believed
by many and regarded as incontroyerti-
bic proof OF the existence of a sea above
the sky. One is 1T loss to conjecture
how that unknown Part of the sea"
connected with the rest of it. 4 phys
