A subtle and horrible method of TAX

means OF unscrupulous men Of science.
Modern study of bacteriology has
placed a, new and terribly effective
weapon in the hands of humanity. It
Is weapon with which entire COM
munities and towns may be stripped

may be brought about without even
directing suspicion toward the perpe-
traitor Of the crime, and, what is more,
the man who seeks to deal out death
in this way may select the specific
disease he wishes to employ in carry
ing out his purpose. All of these men
acing possibilities have developed
through the advanced study of bacte-
ria and the various uses, beneficial
and otherwise, to which micro-organ-
lsms may be put. The fact has been
established beyond all question of
doubt that most contagious diseases
are spread through microbes, and add
ed to this knowledge is the additional
information that each disease has it's
own specific kind of bacteria, which
may be cultured and produced in
countless numbers.
AS an indication of the extremes to
which man may go in making use of
his knowledge of microbes, the case Of

The dreadful custom among the
Dyak natives of Borneo of hunting for
the heads of fellow-creatures has un-
happily not yet been quite stamped
out.
There is, unfortunately, strong rea-
son to believe in story current among
the Sea Dyaks dwelling along the
+ banks of the Batang Eupar river, in
Sarawak (the district of Borneo ruled
over BY Rajah Brooke) that the town
of Lobo Antu, near the source of this
stream, and hardly twenty miles dis
tant from the frontier lines of Dutch
Borneo, has been invaded and raided
by force of Land Dyak tribes from
that country and about twenty or thir-
ty of the peaceful inhabitants ruthless
ly murdered
What lends color to the grewsome
story, says the New York Press, is
the fact that, although preparations
are being hurriedly made in Kuching,
the capital of Sarawak, for a strong
expeditionary force to be sent into the
interior, great secrecy as to it's pur-
pose and destination is maintained by
the official authorities.
The custom of head-hunting is as
old as the hills among the Dyaks, and
is similar to the scalp hunting Of the
Indians. The belief among the Dyaks
is that every head captured in one of

Secret of Good VaIstline,


A belt can make or mar a figure. An
authority says that if short-waisted
women would learn how mot to belt
themselves and long-waisted women
would learn "how to belt themselves
there would be no poor figures. The
secret OF properly betting ones gown
is this-a woman whose waist is short
should avoid high-draped belts, leath-
er belts of color contrasting with
the color of the waist and all straight
belt effects. The short-waisted woman
can accent the tapering3 lines under
her arms by betting her dress with a
bias piece of cloth, panne or silk at
tached to the skirt of her dress. This

In front. If a leather belt is worn it
should be narrow and should match
the waist, not the skirt. A sash may
be worn if it is fiat. This same mo-
diste says that sash ends attached to
a panne or silk belt are becoming to
stout figures when the sash ends are
rather narrow and are looped or knot
ted near the middle of the skirt. Long
wasted girls or women should wear
rather high, draped belts, and may
fasten then with pretty ornaments or
they may wear leather or ribbon belts
matching the skirt in color. Their
belts should not match the waist

NEW YORK'S SMART SET
Old City Directory Throws Light Antecedents of
Society Leaders. n


An old city directory is almost as
great a leveler as death. Recently
there came to light in New York a di-
rectory of the year 1922, and here, if
they feel so inclined, some of the
smart set may study their early ante
cedents.
Just at present Mrs. Cornelius Van
derbilt. the elder, has invoked the aid
OF the law to make her Mrs Vanderbilt.
She will have none of the Cornelius
end of it. The shade of the original
Cornelius doubtless will look disap-
proVingly on this action Of the great
granddaughter-in-law The original
Cornelius was proud of his name

OF the city Of New York to paint it in
full and in large letters so that his
felloW-citizcns might read it. Permis-
sion was granted and the father Of
all the Vanderbilts proudly wrote on
each side Of his wagon this legend:
Cornelius Vanderbilt, licensed cart
man.
Cornelius has a place with his broth
er and cousin Vanderbilts on page 452
OF this old register of Manhattan citi-

Lace for the summer Wardrobe.

Lace for the Summer Wardrobe. I
Let the lace collar be part of your
summer wardrobe, and let it be so
large as to almost look like a cape.
Moreover, let them be as numerous as
your purse will allow. You will want
Tudor collar with the front falling
almost to the belt. Then you will want
the sailor lace collar. Beside this
there is the curious collar which is
a part Of every lace "set' and which
is merely shoulder trimming. The
newest lace collar is one that is in
three tabs in front, square shaped
with the middle one very wide. It is
q eollafsthat is plain in front and fas-
tened in the back, giving that baby
look to the face that the plain front
always does give. There is one var
iety of lace collar which is, unfortun-
ately, expensive. But, once possessed,
and its usefulness can be imagined. It
is long in front, SO long that the front
tab tucks under the belt. Over the
shoulders there are square extensions.
The back is square and as deep as
the shoulders. There is high collar
which is wired. This little article of
dress will beautify any corsage, no
matter how gone it may be in the
matter of rents and raw seams.

the number of pilgrims has greatly in
creased, but their generosity in gifts is
much on the decline. This is probably
due to the fact that the world of Islam
has been feeling very poor for years
past.
In the early ages of Mohammedan-
ism it was considered obligatory for
every one of the faithful to, visit the
sacred city at least once I'M his life
time. The pilgrims have never been sc
numerous in the later history of Mo-
hammedanism. In the early days the
Kalifs were building towns in the
desert as stopping places for the pill
grims and did great deal to faclli,
tate the journey and make it comfort
able. The fact that this solicitude for
the well-being of the devout has not
been manifest for a long time may
account in part for the falling OF in
the number of pilgrims. The members

ca in the thirteenth century rode on,

sort of clamp which holds the
bed covers, thereby keeping the lit

This is the time of the year when

that cholera prevails among those who
are arriving in the sacred city, From
200 to 300 persons are dying daily.
Cholera is nearly always a feature Of

fears are expressed that it's ravages
will reach an alarming extent when
the great flood of pilgrims arrive at
the port of Jeddah on their way to
Mecca.
It is difficult to estimate the num-
ber Of pilgrims who annually. visit the
holy city. Only those who pass
through Jeddah are counted with more
or less accuracy. The large caravans
that travel south through the Arabian
desert, have never been counted and
only rough estimates have been made
of the number of people coming by
these land routes. 1t was estimated in
1914 that the total number Of pilgrims
visiting Mecca in that year was 10000.
