Iack OF heart, naturally prevalent
throughout the beaten south, young
men had more leisure than was good
for them.
A southern country town, even in the
halcyon days before the war, was not
n particularly lively place, and Pulaski
in 1866 was doubtless rather tame to
fellows who had seen Pickett charge
Mt Gettysburg or galloped over the
country with Morgan and Wheeler. A
group of them assembled in a law office
one evening in May, 1866, were discuss
ing WAYS and means Of having a live
lier time. Some one suggested club
or society. An organization with no
very definite aims was effected, and at
n second meeting, q week later, names
were proposed and discussed. Some
one pronounced the Greek word kuklos,
meaning circle.
From kuklos to kukluX was an easy
observation-disclosures consults a glossary
of college boys slang will not find 1t
strange-and khan followed kuklux as
| naturally as "dumpty" follows "hump-
ty." That the name meant nothing
| whatever was recommendation, and
one can fancy what sort of badinage
| would have followed suggestion that
in six years committee of congress
would devote 10 volumes to the history
! of the movement that began in Pu-
laski law office and migrated later to a
deserted and half ruined house on the
outskirts of the village. = Atlantic

BAIT FOR sUNFIsH.
One Mans Method of Going Fishin,
With His Roofs

One Mans Method of Going Fishing
With His Boots.
There Is about as much sport In
catching the big sunflsh as in lifting
out the crappie If you can get the
former in one of Its savage moods.
Peiker is a great CRATER on sunfsh.
He has got dozen different kinds of
bait, but he says that it is all nonsense
to trouble about digging worms. He
declares that beef run through ham
burg steak grinder is just the proper
caper for the sunflsh at Creve C9ur
lake. The tougher the beef the better,
as it will cut in long strips like angle
worms.
"When the sunfish are biting right
smart, 1t is about all that can do to be
kept in the shop" said Peiker. IT be-
lieve me and the sunfish are the most
cheering things out. Do you know, /
have noticed old time fishermen at
Breese's lake wading around in the
shallow water, where the sunfish are
found at spawning time, as carefully
as if they were fishing for trout. Now,
1t is different with me when go out
with my hamburg steak to feed the
golden bellied beauties on. just tie
the line to each leg of my boots, take
little short rod in my hand and stride
into the ter and go ahead. On the
bootleg lines l use red flies. Why, the
sunfish come up and get stuck on my
fly hooks three or four at time. That's
the way to catch mess of fish in
few hours.
II can catch crappie with crawtlsh
tails to beat the band If cannot get
minnows. Crickets are great sunfish
and bass bait, while the katydids will
make crapple leave its bed at mid
night. Just let your hook. sing once

The history of wireless telegraphy
would not be complete without some
mention OF Joseph Henry, Americas
greatest scientist, for it was he who
first, in 1912, discovered the oscillatory
character Of certain electric discharges
and who showed that these oscillations
produced disturbances which could by
suitable receivers be detected ut dis
tances of many rods and through in
tervening buildings, writes Professor
Joseph Ames in The Review of Re-
views. He even arranged an apparatus
on this principle to respond to the
lightning discharges Of distant storms.
The great genius Of Henry was never
more apparent than in his investiga-
ton of electrical discharges and their
oscillatory nature. 1t is lasting tes-
timony to the ignorance among Ameri-
cans Of their own great men that the
name of Joseph Henry was not includ'
ed in the first so selected for the Hal
of Fame of the nation.

pu11aehter. Afraid Of Cows.

It will probably not surprise our
600 lars to hI.s '''--1 ,sanst Spanish Dull
fighters object to fighting cows. The
real reason may, however, astonish
them. A sportsmanlike objection to
prosecuting female animal has moth
ing whatever to do with 1t. The fact is
that the average toreador is sincerely
afraid Of COW.
And he has good reason. The COWS of
the half wild breed used for the arena
are much quicker in the movements
than are the bulls. Ther horns are
more pointed and more formidable.
They do not lower their heads to the
ground, shut their eyes and charge like
locomotive upon the rails, but are
alert and ready to follow every move
ment Of their prosecutors. Their war
like tactics have been adapted not to
blind, bovine frontal attacks, but to the
strategy Of active and cunning beasts
Of prey, of which the human bullfghter
is only q feeble mimic. If these cheap
idols of the Spanish populace would
face young and active wild COWS which
had just been robbed Of their calves,
they might perhaps forestall the BUTCH
er, but they would, at any rate, do
something to earn their laurels.-Pear-

At Salton, in southern California, ex-
lists basin of land between 200 and
200 feet below sea level. About 1000
acres of the depressed area are Gov
cred with deposit Of salt, which 9. +.
Holden describes in The Scientific
American as one of the sights of Cali
fornia. The salt is first thrown into
ridges by peculiarly shaped plow,
drawn by dummy engine With ca
bles and then is piled into conical
heaps before being carried to the dry
ing house and crushing mill. The ex-
panse looks like a field of snow. About
1000. tons of salt are removed each
year. but the supply is perenninlly re-
newed by the deposits of salt springs
which flow into the basin. In June the
temperature of the air reaches~1 100 de-
grees, and only Indian workmen can
withstand the heat and glare.

AS regards facilities for bathing,
which every Filipino demands, there Is
the open bay, with its miles of clean
salt water, ready at any time of the
day or year for a free bath. The genu-
Inc Filipino is half amphibious, loving
the water and swimming like fish.
An example of this may be seen in the

days labor is done, the thinly dressed

CARE OF LAcEs.

Iron lace on the right side first, then
on the wrong side to throw up the pat
tern.
When puttiass assJG pm Is 10 wild IT
round a card, as they do in the shops
When ironing laces, cover them with
clean, white tissue paper. This pre-
vents the shiny look seen on washed
lace.
Use contour instead of ordinary
starch for stiffening laces. This makes
them firm and does not detract from
the lacy appearance.
Laces and other delicate trlfles should
be placed in n muslin bag before being
boiled. This prevents their getting lost
and torn in the wash.
After getting up" laces do not leave
them to air in damp place-roun
the fire when the kettle is boiling, for
instance. This robs them of their fresh
ness and makes them look limp.
All laces before being ironed should
be carefully pulled out, each point re.
ceiving attention. You will be repaid
for your trouble, as the lace will look
twice as nice and last clean q much
longer time
