ENTIRE CANON FOR CHURCH
Religious Rights and Observance of
the Hopi Indians OF. Grand
Canon

The Paradise or Spirit House of the
Hopi is in Grand Canon, and there is
sent, during certain important cere-
monies, messenger priest who makes
a votive deposit in the shrine erected
there, tenders prayer offering of sa-
cred cornmeal to the rising sun and
carries back with him certain waters
and herbs for use in further rites,
writes Louis Akin, in the Craftsman.
Shrines are everywhere in the vicini-
ty of Hopi towns. Some are shrines
to distant mountains, rivers, the
ocean, some to prehistoric or tradi-
tional homes of ancestors or clans,
and in nearly every field is some man
ner of shrine in which to deposit es-
pecial prayer offerings prepared by
the priests for the purpose, which the
fortunate ones proudly carry to the
fields with perfect confidence in their
efficacy The indoor religious cere-
monies are held in underground
chambers known as kiyas. Of which
there are IA in Oraibi. Each man be-
longs to some one OF the fraternities
occupying these kivas.

NO TWO HATS EVER ALIKE
Made by Machinery or by Hand
There Is Sure to Be =
Difference.

There are no two things alike in
this world-no two atoms alike, no
two blades of grass alike, no two
peas alike. no two faces alike, won
derful-most wonderful of all-no two
ladies' hats alike! Has this thought
ever been impressed upon you while
sitting in an assemblage of women.
Oh, the wisdom and forethought OF
nature, for were each woman to have
a hat similar to her neighbours what
an infinite variety of additional woes
and heartaches and tears the human
race would have had to bear!
And, yet, Mathew Softleigh, born
and bred in New York, says the Sun
knew naught of this. His tender brair
could not conceive the fact that every
thing in this world is infinite in its
revolutions and qualifications, partic.
ularly ladies' hats, so Matthew backed
his poor Judgment with real money
and made a wager with his friend
Silas Cute, that he would soon find
him two hats that were alike.
Matthew and Silas selected warm
spring day and they walked up and
down the great White Way, they
promenaded Fifth avenue, they visit
ed the parks, they strolled to the east
side, the west side and every other
side, they visited the theaters, the
concert halls, the churches; from DAY
to day the quest continued until both
were weary and footsore. They saw
Gainsboroughs, picture hats, sailors,
hats of straw, hats OF felt, hats with
ribbons, hats with feathers, hats with
aigrettes, but no two hats alike. They
saw dreams of red and blue and green
as well as Nightmares and incubi OF
Arabian Nights phantasy. There was
poetry and prose, music and flowers
typified in every one, but no two
alike! What ingenuity they repre-
sented, what Gceaseless brain activity
what thought, what feeling, what deli
cacy in some, which if put into a
poem or a symphony would earn him
or her place in the Hall of Fame!
Matthew lost his bet, and it is well
that he did. There should be no two
hats alike, there are no two hats
alike and there never will be two
hats alike. Nature, like woman, is
feminine she has variety of moods
of expression, of beauty, of color, OF
form and figure, and woman's hat Is
the embodiment, the epitome of heI
every thought, her every wish, heI
every desire. Not one woman is like
another; neither can her hat be. And
when the time comes that two hats
are found alike then will genius have
reached its limit and the world will
have lost all its beauty and all that
makes life worth living.

1T HAPPENED IN JERSEY
There Was One Man Who Didn't Know

Not all the world knew of the San

day of the earthquake, none of the

the visitor, while waiting for the milk

a threatening sky, that she hoped
there might be rain IN San Francisco,
too.

DIETARY DICTA.

Dinner should be of lighter nature
in summer than in winter.
A quart Of wheat contains more nu-
triment than a bushel of cucumbers.
There is happy mean between eat
ing everything and being squeamish.
Two pounds of potatoes contain as
much nutriment as 10 pounds of
turnips.
Light soups, light desserts and light
meals should have the preference in
warm weather.
Vegetables and fruits are to be used
most generously at that season of the
year In which they naturally mature.
Beginning the dinner with soup is
the very best way to get the whole
system in condition for assimilating
. hearty meal.

PARTICULAR INSECTS
ANTS ARE NOT so WISE AS
THEY ARE CLEAN.
Solomon's Advice to the Sluggard Is
Disparaged by German Scien-
tist-Facts of In
terest.

according to DR.. Escherich, a
learned entomoiogist of Strasburg uni
versity, Solomon erred in commend
ing the ant to the sluggard as a shin
ing example of wisdom and industry.
The German savant thinks Solomon
would have better justified his claim
to be regarded as the wisest man that
ever lived had he exolled the ant as
an exponent of cleanliness. He has
just published the results of an ex-
haustive study of these wonderful in
sects. He combats the views of those
investigators who assign to them al
most human intelligence. But as ex-
ponents of that virtue which stands
next to godliness he maintains that
ants stand preeminent, and if the hui
man race would pattern after them in
this respect half the diseases on
which doctors thrive would vanish.
Ants, he declares, abhor dirt in any
form about their bodies. Nature has
provided them with implements that
serve the same purpose as combs and
brushes in the hands of civilized

use of them. They are never too busy
to clean themselves. No job is SO i'm
portant to an ant that he won't knock
off work to clean himself He does
not wait until his days labors are fin
ished to perform his ablutions. He
is never too tired to lend another ant
hand-or, rather, leg-to effect a
thorough securing He will toledate
loafing occasionally, for the profess
sor asserts it is a mistake to suppose
that ants are everlastingly hunting up
jobs, but he won't put up with dirty
neighbors- Cleanliness is the supreme
law of the community.
But the professor rather detracts
from the credit one would otherwise
be disposed to give them for the prae-
tice of this most exemplary virtue by
telling us that ants are driven to 1t
by the conditions of their existence.
without the most scrupulous ,cleanll-
ness" he says, they could not recog-
nize each other nor communicate
anything. The cohesion of the indi-
vidual with it's fellows is maintained
solely through the medium of the
sense of smell. Ii the ant is covered
with dust the possibility of it's being
recognized is diminished to an extra
ordinary degree. The antennae in
particular must always be kept clean,
for it lis only with their aid that the
ant remains in close communication
with its tribe"
1t is their highly developed sense OF
cleanliness, the professor says, which
also explains the ants funerals
about which so much has been writ
ten. Ants, it is well known, carry
their dead to definite burial places,
where they arrange them in most
careful order. THE little creatures
do not, however, do this with the OBJ
ject of providing their dead comrades
with the last resting place" DIR. Els

CONCERNING CLOCKS.

Never allow the clock to run down.
1t responds to regular attention Just
rs surely as human being does and
keeps its course truly when made to
follow Its endless routine.
The hands of clock should always
be turned forward. To set the hands
by reversing the right-hand motion is
to loosen delicate screws that hold
them within reach of various cog
slips.
Never allow the clock to be moved
from the position where 1t is we'll bal
anced. A deviation of two OF three
minutes a day from the correct time
may be the result of an uneven
placing of the clock, and once 1t is
properly adjusted 1t should not be
shifted for busting or for artistic pur-
poses, This is especially true of
clocks that have pedulum.

Cp-tO-Date Weather Reports.

The latest work upon which the
United States Weather Bureau has en-
tered is a system of meteorological OBJ
servations from vessels at sea by wire
less telegraphy and the simultaneous
issuance of weather forecasts and
storm warnings to those vessels. The
Weather Bureau has prepared special
code by means of which exact informa
tion as to date and hour. latitude and
longitude of the vessel, atmospheric
pressure, temperature, force and direc'
ton of the wind, and the character Of
the sky are all compressed into four
words. AS soon as any coast wireless
telegraph station receives such dis
patch from vessels, the message is to
be delivered at once to the Weather
Bureau at Washington. Should the
contents of this message be OF such
importance as to demand special storm
warnings. notices will be prepared and
dispatched by wireless telegraphy to
all vessels in the vicinity affected. The
value of such a service might be cited
when the experience of the steamship
Campania is remembered. On October
II last, this liner was caught in hur-
ricane. The storm was found to have
had no great area and il is stated by
the Weather Bureau that had the sys-
TEN proposed been in use at that time,
warning of it's existence might have
enabled the Campania and other YES
sells to avoid its center of activity. An.

els per acre over those to which no
fertilizer had been applied. Data was
collected of the value of spraying ap
piles and it was shown that while 8,43O
bushels of sprayed apples brought an
average of $2.02 per bushel, 6,365 bush.
els of unsprayed apples brought but
$3.50 per bushel.
The effect of distance between trees
planted before 1880 was studied in it's
relation to yield. Taking figures from
an average of four years it was found
that trees planted 80 by 80 feet apart
yield 1S6 bushels per acre; trees 81 by
81, to 35 by 35 feet apart, 222 bushels
per acre. and trees SO by SO to 40 by 40
feet apart yield 229 bushels per acre a
year. Observations in the counties
showed that while the site is not a
very important factor the best site is
doubtless one that is sufficiently ele'
waited to give good opportunity for air
and for water drainage and not so high
as TO be especially exposed to the wind.
