SCENERY FOR A NEW PLAY.
It's Preparation In Modern Theaters
an Interesting Process.

Its Preparation In Modern Thenters
an interesting Process.
The preparation for a new play, as
far as the scenery Is concerned, is most
Interesting. A complete model in min
iature is made. about the size Of one
of the German toy theaters seen in the
shops. The picture Is carefully painted;
the rocks, if there be any, and the
foliage are cut out, and all the details
are followed with no less thought than
when the real affair is attacked.
The work is done in water color,
mounted on pasteboard, and II the
scheme be an interior there are real
curtains IN miniature, lights Of steps,
and the hangings, all seriously worked
out It is something that would de-
light the heart of boy and furnish
him with endless amusement These
models are kept until after the piece
is produced, and are then put away
on shelves, alas only to warp and be-
come covered with dust,
But the master painters work does
not end here by any means, for there
are lights TO be arranged, since they
play an important part in the per-
formance and must be regulated by
the scheme Of color; SO there are long
conferences with electricians and many
discussions with the makers of glass
shades whereby the exact tints may be
obtained.
When every detail has been settled,
then the great acres Of canvas are
spread on the paint frames, and the
drawing is begun. Large china pots
are used for the colors. These are filled
with paints, which are mixed with
water and size, and enormous
brushes put the pigment on the can
vas.

"There Is no doubt that Gibraltar is,
from the nature Of It's location, the
strongest fortified spot on earth.' said
recently returned tourist, hut the
English officers who are on duty there
seem impressed with the Idea that
there Is some weak rpot about the
place and that some American may
discover It. They have very nonsensi-
cal rules and regulations governing the
fertilization. aud one cf them 10 that
no American can be admitted 70 the
fortified places. though they are AZ
lowed TO wander all arourl the outside
as long as they care 20.
Il do not think the combined guns Of
the rest Of the world an working to
gether and for II hours each day, Sun
days and public holidays Included, for
one year, could seriously Interfere with
Gibraltar beyond cutting OF the mail
communication The walls are solid
rock n quarter Of n mile thick. and
such a thing as doing any damage in
military sense would be simply non
sense. Gibraltar could resist any at
tack, and the conditions there are such
that the attacking party would neces-
sarily have to be exposed in making
its attack. This exposure would have
to be within range Of the guns of the
fort, even If they are 80 years out Of
date Consequently they would be
nearly as effective as modern guns,
for with all t@it is claimed for modern
warfare there probably never will be
any fighting done when the opposing
parties are out Of sight Of each other
"While all this is admitted by mill
tary men of all countries, it seems
funny that there should be anything
of secret or hidden character about
Gibraltar that Americans should not
be allowed to inspect as freely as the
people of other countries are. Eng
land may be whipped some time in the
history of the world, but the defeat
will not take place at Gibraltar, as

Nc Owe the Hat 10 AsIn.

We owe the hat to Asia, for it was in
that country that the art of felting
wool was first known, and from the
most remote periods the art was car
ried on 10y the orientals. In India,
China, Burma and Siam hats are
made of straw, of rattan, of bamboo
Of pith, of the leaf of the Tallport
palm and Of a large variety Of grasses.
The Japanese made their hats of pa
per. The modern hat can be traced
back to the petasurs worn by the an
cient Romans when on a journey, and
hats with brims were also used by the
earlier Greeks.
It was not until after the Roman
conquest that the use of hats began in
England. A 'hatte of blever," about
the middle Of the twelfth century, was
worn by one of the mobiles Of the land.
Fraissort describes hats and plumes
which were worn at Edwards court
In 1910. when the Garter order was in
stituted. The merchant in Chaucer's
Canterbury Tales" had ION his head
Flaunderish beaver hat" and from
that period onward there is frequent
mention Of felt hates"

origin of .Hoosier.Y -


An Indiana man who was being
taunted about the name of his state,
"Hoosler," gave this explanation of it:
'When the young men on the In
diana side of the Ohio river went to
Louisville, the Kentucky men boasted
over them, calling them new purchase
greenies,' and claiming themselves to
be a superior race, half horse, half alli-
gator and tipped off with swapping
turtle. These taunts produced fights.
in the market house and streets of
Louisville. On one occasion a stout
bully from Indiana was victor in
fist fight, and, having heard Colonel
Lehmanowsky lecture on The Wars of
Europe who always gave martial
prowess to the German hussars in a
fight with the Russian Cossacks, pro
nouncing hussars 'hoosiers,' the In
dianian, when the Kentucl1ian cried
'Enoughg jumped up and said: II am
a hoosier.' And hence the Indianians
were called by that name. This was
its true origin. I was in the state
when 1t occurred - Chicago Chronicle.

rhc vulenr voice.

What constitutes the vulgar voice?
In an article in the London Spectator
a writer concludes that this evidence Of
vulgarlty. springs, like almost all vul-
garity, however displayed, chiefly from
two causes-an undue love Of conspicu-
BUSINESS and an undue fear Of the
same" The person whose chief aim
is TO keep himself or herself in the eye
OF the world rarely makes a remark
without desiring that It shall reach the
ears Of others besides the one directly
addressed, and here the peculiarly false
sound OF the voice Is attributed TO the
absence Of singleness Of motive. On
the other hand, the wavering tone and
affected accent OF the timid vulgar are
ascribed TO another form Of insincerity
namely, the wish TO initiate others
with whom one happens 10 be When
they are Of a supposedly higher social
standing. The attempt IS sure TO fail
and the result only I'm the suppression
Of all evidence of the speakers own
personality in the voice as well as in
the manner. Thus sincerity paramount
in an art is basic in breeding as well.

An Ole LEGEND That Tells OF the
Origin Of the Art.


Oririn Of the Art.
Iaoemaking rs by no meahs so old an
industry as most persons suppose.
There is no proof that it existed prevl-
GUS to the fifteenth century, and the
Oldest known painting in which it ap-
pears Is a portrait of a lady in the
academy at Venice painted by Cas-
paccio who died about 1923. The leg
end concerning the origin of the art is
as follows;
A young fisherman of the Adrlatic
was beuothed TO a young and beauti-
full girl Of one of the isles of the la
goon. Industrious as she was beauti-
full, the girl made a new net for her
lover, who took It with him on board
his boat. The first time he cast it into
the sea he dragged therefrom an exqui-
site petrifed wrack grass, which he
hastened TO present to his fiancee. But,
war breaking out, the fisherman was
pressed into the service Of the Venetian
navy. The poor girl wept at the depar-
ture of her lover and contemplated his
last gift TO her. But while absorbed In
following the intricate tracery of the
wrack grass she began TO twist and
plait the threads weighted with small
beads which hung around her net. Lit
tie by little she wrought an imitation
Of the petrifcation, and thus was Gre
ated the bobbin lace.

INC Thermometer In sickness.

Currie Of Edinburgh employed ther-
mometer in the treatment Of typhoid
fever patients with the cold douche as
early as 1897. He was ridiculed by his
German contemporaries as an instance
Of medical decay in English medicine.
The first clinical application of the
thermometer was made by Santorius Of
Padua. He invented a thermometer
open at the end. After being held by
the patient it was plunged into cold
water. Boerhave taught the impor-
tance Of the thermometer. De Haen
qT041770 must be given the honor
Of introducing the thermometer into
current use at the bedside. 1t was
not until 1850 to 1870 that it came into
general use.

A story of Heinrich Heine and
Tootbsome Lyons sausage.
Returning from a journey to the
south Of France Heinrich Heine met
friend, a German viollnist, in Lyons.
who gave him large sausage that had
been made in Lyons. with the request
TO deliver It 10 mutual acquaintance,
a Homeopathic physician in Paris.
Heine promised TO attend to the com
mission and intrusted the delicacy to
the care Of his wife, who was travel
ing With him. But as the post chaise
was very slow and he soon became
very hungry, on the advice OF his wife
both tasted OF the sausage, which
dwindled with every mile.
Arriving at Paris. Helne did not dare
to send the remainder to the physician,
and yet he wished TO keep his promise.
So he cut or the thinncst possible
slice with his razor, wrapped It in a
sheet Of vellum paper and mclosed it
in an envelope, with the following
note:
Dear Doctor From your scientific In

Hugo and His Critic.

Victor Hugo once made a queer mis-
take in "Travailleurs de la Mer" when
he mentioned the Firth of Forth as
the Premier de Quatre." He had con-
fused the word "frth" with first" The
English translator Of the book was at
the pains to point this out TO the great
man in a letter, but Victor Hugo was
indignant at the impertlnence and alb
solutcly declined to have the mistake
