The "Father of Leprosy.' g


 The gecko belongs 10 a family of thick tongued lizards which are vide ly distributed over the tropical. and subtropical countriess of Europe and Asia, and in all countries where he Is known he is thoroughly despised. BG- cause of his repulsiRe appearance hh is called the father Of leprosy." Down to times comparatively modern it'was firmly believed that contact either di- rectly or indirectly fth the little rep tile was sure to cd nunicate leprosy. The investigations modern zoolo- gists have proved kakga<A li4+l, r+h4 Is undeServtng of uame Of rather of leprosy'' and is indeed 8. most harmless Eul creature. Since the old bel ability of this reptile to col ieprosy to any human flesh 1ght come in contact with his sore looking skin was explode retained his objectionable nal AlY on account of the bad appeal he makes. His skin is one mass 8ealy and tuber-- culous excrescences cover his body from the tip of his to the end of his nose. Every quarter inch section of this repulsive looking body has a general resemblance to the thickenedz callous protuberances that appear on the human body in cases of leprosy. On this account and no other the harm less little gecko was given the name of being the progenitor of the worst form of disease

some strange Customs.

A very interesting account Is given of the strange customs of the Bed ouins of the Sinai peninsula in Lord Cromer's report on Egypt and the Su- dan, If man kills another in time of peace the relatives of the murdered man, beginning from the father to the fifth generation, have the right to re- Yenge or pardon against the receipt of "blood money" This latter Is fixed at f0Ety-one camels. If the murdered man was of the same tribe as the mur- derer the latter or his near relatives have to give a girl in marriage to one of the victims relatives without re ceiving the usual dowry. When she gives birth to child she is free to go back if she chooses. In the latter case the marriage must be renewed and the usual dowry paid. Five camels may be substituted for the girl.

LOOKS LIKE
An Attempt To Destroy the Public
School Building.

But for the timely discovery by
Foreman Foote of the Marine Iron
Works the st. Johns public school
building might now be a heap of
ashes or the building in badly
damaged condition. Sunday eve
ming Mr.. and Mrs. Foote were out
walking. On the way to their
home they discovered smoke issu-
ing beneath the rear steps of the
schoolbuilding. Further investiga-
ton disclosed a fire eating its way
along the lower sill of the steps.
Edward King aud Percy Bradley,
two boys who were near, were
called upon and instructed to break
in the lattice window of the steps
and extinguish the blaze.
On entering the window the boys
encountered considerable smoke,
but succeeded in putting out the
fire after considerable effort. The
lower sill was burned into for over
an inch along several feet of space.
Close to the sill was a large bundle
of wrapping paper that had been
used to start the fire. From all
appearances it looked like deliD-
crate attempt to destroy the school
building. Had the blaze been left
unmolested for ten minutes longer
serious damage might have result
ed.
Earlier in the evening several
young men and boys were seen in
the vicinity smoking cigarettes.
Whether the blaze was started by
a discarded match or a spark from
one of the cigarettes is mere con-
lecture. The fact that the wrap
ping paper had been rolled up and
showed under the sill leads to the
suspicion that a deliberate attempt
was made to destroy the school
building.

There II much complaint among
our residents because the indusirie,
along the river front do not ad
ver,ise the location Of their plant,
correctly. Although locrted at ,hi,
point and having their headquarters
here nearly all the manufacturing
plants have the Portland prefix
TO their names. BY reading their
advertising the people at distant
points imagine these institutions
aae located In Portland. Nearly,
II not all their stationery carries a
Portland date line. This is mis-.
leading aud should be remedied.
With their workmen living here
and every ounce of their produc,
manufactured here 81, Johns should
get the benefit. With the finest
water front locations in the ives, no
industry has any reason to be
ashamed Of its home in ST. Johns.
The name ST. Johns on every piece
Of goods manufactured, aud on all
stationery and other advertising
used by the several industries
located here would do much to ad.
vertise our unsurpassed water and
rail shipping facilities. The shrewd
buyer would be among the first to
note this, and the result would be
increased business for every manu-
facturer in st. Johns, and possibly
the location Of others at this point
Once the advantages OF ST, Johns
are known aud acknowledged the
rest will be easy. Strive To make
this point an industrial center and
all will profit by il, and no one
more than those who manufacture |
aud have goods To sell.
