fore such flights are undertaken, or
otherwise aeronauts will be talking like

said:
You said when you sold me my
four horsepower runabout that you'd

HOUSES IN BIBLE TIMES
NOT PICTURED RIGHT

BERLIN. March 24-German arch
biologists excavating in Galilee came
upon hill o. large mound under
which they found the fairly well pre-
served walls of a house dating from
the time of Christ, which belonged to
the dwelling of wellto-do man. A
large clubhouse also unearthed contain
ed Jars which evidently had contained
wine and olive oil.
The foundations of the house are so
well preserved that there will be no
difficulty in making an exact plan OF
the rooms, which are similar in char
acter and design to those In which
the famous supper of Cana in Galilee
took place.
These rooms are wholly unlike the
conception of Leonardo da Vinci and
other painters, who have treated this
subject. The room in which the wa
ter was turned into wine probably was
not more than 20 feet long by 10 feet
wide and had low roof There were
stone benches around the walls and a
recess In the wall facing the east, in
which perhaps the giver of the feast
sat.

HOSIERY HINTS

is essential plain or open work. Isle
or silk stockings must match the Kill

match the suede orr oozc Kid shoes,

The street hose may be with con

foot the fancy pattern Is In strong re-
lief. For evening wear, and especial
ly at summer resorts. embroidered
stockings will he the rage. They will
also be expensive: therefore IL is a
safe prophecy that many will wear
openwork hosiery in defiance OF the
hard and fast edicts of the i'm
provident.
Many women who are skillful with
the needle are embroidering their own
designs on stockings, and IL done well
can be made very effective. Some Of
the very expensive nose for evening
wear are ornamcnted with elongated
wreaths of spangles sewed fiat. or
golden beads. These are to be worn
with gilt shoes and an elaborate even
