Charlotte Observer.
We copy copiously from an edi-
forial in the. Washington Post:
1T is not too much to say that
everybody worth mentioning is next
door to afectionate explosion in
the wild desire to behold Uncle Joe
Cannon in his new suit of clothes.
Our readers have not, of course,
forgotten that the Speaker Of the
house received, a week or so ago,
several yards of homemade cloth,
which is rather loosely described by
the thoughtless as Jeans Anyhow
the roll of Jeans has arrived. Mr..
Cannon has announced his purpose
of having it converted into a suit
of clothes, and now the whole town
is sitting up straight in reverent ex-
pectation.'
The Post then devotes several
lines to the refutation Of an idle
.rtsrnor, which had become current,
that the jeans were-or-was-
made in Illinois, saying, among
other things:
NATURALLY, the rurnor met with
well-deserved contempt. Nobody IN
Illinois knows anything about jeans.
The humblest citizen of the state
would scorn to touch loom, even
if there were one within a hundred
miles to touch. The men are all in
politics-wita occasional devotion
to the barn yard and the held-and
the women spend, most Of their time
at the piano. 3 * = *The truth has
been disclosed at last, = however,
and we all know, now that the
cloth was woven in North Carolina
not in Illinois-and that the Hon.
Toe Cannon will soon be arrayed IN
a product of the state which origi-
nally produced him, and from
which we have a right to expect
nothing but the best"
All North Carolinians are behold
en- to the Post for its just and
friendly reference to the only state
in the Union that is worth while
but it does US too much honor in
giving North Carolina credit for
this bolt of jeans. That glory be-
longs to our neighbor common
wealth, South Carolina, and the
bolt from which this beauchlous
suit is to be made was presented to
the speaker by Representative
Wyatt Aiken of the third district
Of the state last named. Having
made this important correction we
return to the Post:
NATURALLY, there is widespread
and reverent, if not burning, curl
osity to see the great and only
Toe Cannon endued in that new

Pensant md Pigs.

A clever smuggling trick has been
played on q customs officer on the
Russo-German frontier. An innocent
looking peasant reported to the officer
a plot for getting Il large number of
pigs across the frontier The method,
he said, would be to drive. across at in
tervals of half an hour, 3, 6, u and 200
pigs, the smugglers arguing that if the
first three lots could be sent over there
would be no trouble with the 200
The officer was naturally on the alert
In accordance with the PEASANTS state
Inent three pigs were driven over, then
six, followed by twelve. All were al
lowed to pass, and preparations were
made to receive the 200. But no more
pigs appeared, and the twenty-one ami
mails admitted had in the meantime
been lodged in safety-Berlin Cor.

Soluble Glass.

Soluble glass, or water glass, as it
is sometimes called, is an artificial sill
cate of sodium or potassium or dou-
BILE silicate Of both of these alkalis, and
thus in its essential ingredients the
same as ordinary glass. But ordinary
glass is TO Il slight extent soluble in
water, owing to the alkali which it
contains. and by varying the proper
ton of the alkaline constituents the
compound becomes readily soluble to
any desired degree. Attention was
first directed to it by Fuchs, German
chemist, about 1924. 1t has been used
to some extent, and quite successfully,
in preventing the decay of stone walls
and edifices under the action of the
weather. The surface is covered with
a coating of a suitable solution, and,
the water soon evaporating, a thin,
transparent glaze is left over the stone,
efectually protecting it from the dis
integrating action of the atmosphere
Several public buildings in various
parts of the world have been success
fully treated in this way.

A scientist explains some of the
strange phenomena of dreams by say
ing that they are due to what he calls
hereditary memory" He takes the
falling through space" dream and
points out that after suffering the men
tai agony of falling the sleeper es-
capes the shock of the actual stopping.
The explanation is that the falling sem
satiOns have been transmitted from
remote ancestors who were fortunate
enough to save themselves after fall
ing from great heights in treetops by
clutching the branches. The molecu-
lar changes in the cerebral cells due
to the shock of stopping could not be
transmitted because victims falling to
the bottom would be killed. In a sim
liar manner by reverting to the habits
of animals which existed centuries ago
the same investigator finds an eXpla-
nation for the mental state experience
ed by individuals in various dreams

reptile and vermin" dream, color
dreams, suffocation dreams, flying
dreams and the like.

Fourteen cents for each of these"
he said, handing the saleswoman two
crayats he had selected. That's 2S; Is

cents in all" And he placed a half
dollar on the counter.
The girl took the cravats he had Sc
lected, entered the purchase ON a slip,
which she footed up at 80 cents, and
sent them away. Soon they came back
wrapped ready for the purchaser. He
took them, but did not go away.
Il knew l could do it," he said. "Just
count it up again-three for IA cents
each and one for IS"
The girl counted and found the total
was 60 cents instead of 80. Then he
wanted to give her 10 cents more and
go off with the goods. but it took more
than 10 cents worth of his time as well
as of everybody else's concerned before
the matter could be Strengthened out.

The Ruling Passion strong In Death.

The Ruling Passion Strong In Death.
The ruling passion of Edward l. Of
England was undoubtedly the pursuit
of his ideal of uniting all the British
islands under one rule. His great OBJ
stacle was Scotland, and the conquest
of Scotland, therefore, became a pas
sion with him. Stronger than years, it
sent him to the head of the army when
he was fit only for a sick bed, and
when he was at last compelled to
yield he sought to make this passion
spur on his son by ordering that the
flesh should be boiled from his bones
and that his skeleton should be car
ried at the head of the army and re-
main unburied till Scotland was CON
quered
This is the most conspicuous instance
of 1.-The ruling passion strong in death
on record, though many others would
be worthy of quotation. William Pitts
patriotism endured to his last gasp and
inspired his last utterance, as did Mel

the command of the sea, while Napo-
Icons last dream was one of battle.

The muslrat may be broiled over the

ranged that the drippings run over the

made into a stew with vegetables and
pork, and in this case the longer it

be the results. Only seasoned campers

the delicious nose of a moose or know
the delights of marrowbones of deer

venison pounded to fragments and
cooked with rich bears fat, musk tur
tie soup, porcupine steaks, with hell
benders as a side dish. And, although
thousands of muskrats are killed and
eaten every year in Maryland and
Delaware, probably but few of my
