PAPER MAN.

H. Y. Saint, of Grand View, has
been selected by President Rose
welt for the appointment as register

to succeed q. Y. Coleman resigned.
Saint was at one time a newspaper

the press representative and cam
paign manager of Lee johnson, con-
gressional candidate, and made many

named who was familiar with the
land Office practice, hence the ap'
pointment of Saint.

Sunday Night Salad.

A tasty Sunday night salad was
improvised the other day when un-
expected guests dropped in and the
larder was not exactly bare, but
somewhat depleted. The knuckle
end of a boiled ham served as
foundation. After the meat was cut
into dice, an equal quantity of cold
boiled potatoes was sliced and added,
together with three deviled eggs left
from Saturdays supper. A suspicion
Of onion was scraped and added to
the contents of the salad bowl, to-
gether with a sprinkling of salt, pep
per and lemon juice. Mayonnaise
dressing was hastily whisked togeth-
er and incorporated with the salad
by lightly tossing with a silver fork.
The salad bowl was lined with curly
leaves of celery that had been saved
from dinner for use in the stock pot.
The salad was lightly piled in the
centre and a row of overlapping
sliced picked beets made a veritable
poem in leftovers. The salad was
voted great success and notes for
Its making were taken by every
housekeeper present - Washington

help in removing the odor. Canvas

Curious Old Legend.

According to curious old legend,
the ruby first became known to NOR
tails as the result of an act of kind
ness shown by poor woman to an
injured stork. Philostratus, one of
the old Greek writers, tells us that
this gem was originally placed by the
stork in the fabric of her nest as a
charm against serpents, and Aeolean.
in his eighth "Book of Animals" en-
larging upon this fancy, thus relates
the episode:
"A certain widow, Heraclea by
name, had tended young stork that,
having fallen out of the nest before
1t was fully fiedged, had broken its
leg. Thereupon the grateful bird,
upon returning from the annual mi
grafton of its kind, dropped into her
lap as she sat at her door a precious
stone, which, on her awakening at
night, she found to her astonishment
had lighted up her chamber like
glowing torch. Upon examination
this stone proved to be matchless
ruby"
There are in reality two kinds OF
rubies; the true or Oriental ruby, and
the spinel ruby. The former is a
red variety of the precious corundum,
of great variety and value; while the
latter is an illuminate of magnesium.
BY ancient writers a still wider
range-under the common name of
the "carbunculus' of Pliny, or the
anthrax" ("glowing coal'D of Greek
writers-included also garnets and
other inferior stones Of fiery color.
Rubies vary in color from pale
rose-red through deep cochineal to
red-purple, the latter being the most
valued tint, known as the pigeons
blood" color.
Ceylon and parts of Tartary furnish
very good spinels these exhibit the
color of crimson poppies, while the
Balass specimens resemble pale roses.
The true rubies are obtained from
the mines, the spinels usually from
the beds of torrents.
BY some of the ancient writer's the
ruby was said to preserve from all
harm, and by others to glow and
deepen in color when danger ap-
