PECULIAR WHEEL OF FORTUNE.
Breton Presents fecribe Miraculous
 Powers to Odd ContriVance.

In the village church of Comfort (near Pont-Croix), in western Brit tary. is very good specimen of the now rare wheel of fortune" It is made of wood. with a row of bells on it's outer rim and pivoted be- tween couple of rough beams altogether very primitive workman ship. By means of a cord attached to a crank the wheels can be made to re- volve and set all the bells a-jangling. lave of en heard that the peasants believe that it has miraculous power of healing when run over the head of sufferer who has placed a sou in the box to which the rope is padlocked. I received remarkable confirmation of this belief, for while making a photo graph well-to-do sailors wife and her husband came into the church and looked round. The woman asked me If I thought there could be any truth in this belief, as her child was very backward in learning to talk. Her nurse. who came from those parts, had advised her to bring the baby and ring the bells of Comfort over his head. when Fe would be sure to talk. As ske was rassing she had looked in to see if it was worth trying!

Telegraph Letters.

A novelty in correspondence, re- gently inaugurated by the French post office department, has met with such success that it might be tried all over the world This is the telegraphic letter The hours between D. m. and a. m. are not busy ones for the French telegraphic lines. So the postal authorities decided to turn these hours to some use. Therefore, if one misses the post for a provincial town in France to-day one can at the rate of 100 words for 20 cents have the letter telegraphed and delivered by the first post next morning. The scheme is very simple and is working admirably in Paris.

Defense of Canned Products.

That foods properly canned do not deteriorate with age was a statement made at a dinner of canners in Chica go a few days ago. Suppose custom CT desired can of corn on February 22, 1920" said one of the speakers land was given corn canned in 1909 It would be rejected with a demand for something fresher,' and, although the 1909 article would be found as fresh as that of 1920 it would be lost At a recent banquet in London canned fruit taken from the ruins of Pompei1 was found to be fresh and fine. There should be a law to compel the canning of all products in such a manner that they would keep for ages"

that they will condemn the boss system,
and will call upon the Democrats of the
State TO aid in formulating a new policy
which will bring back to the democratic
party the strength it once had in the
State
The call is signed by representative
Democrats in nearly every county in the
State The names show that the move
ment is widespread and nonfactonaI
Among those from this city who have
signed the call are George r. Parker,
