RAlNM TAXING

Besides the use of bad language as a popular means of procuring rain, there are various other tricks to which mem bers of the human race have recourse in time of drought says the London Daily News. There is a village in Russia, for instance, where three men used to climb certain fir trees in sea sons of drought, one of the three hay ing a vessel of water which he would sprinkle all around. One of the other two hammered on a kettle CT made some similar noise in the hope of there by producing thunder, and the third scattered sparks from firebrands as a warning to the lightning to make haste. The c olden Rough" gives "a host of instances of similar cerc- monies, as they. have been observed
 in different parts of the world.
 In Roumania, Servia and other coua- tries the charm for rain is more pie tUresque. Here a troop of girls, the leader of whom is naked save for the towering of leaves, herbs and flowers. goes in procession from house tO house through the village, and as they pass singing for rain the householder. drench them with buckets of water ''The ceremony" says Dr. Frazer reg ularly takes place al over ROumania on the third Tuesday after Easter, but it may be expected at any time of drought during the summer"
 There is vet another wetting Rou- manian custom described in "The Golden Bough." Sometimes when rain is needed, we are told, the Rouma Hians make a clay figure to represent Drought. cover it with a pail, and place it in an open coffin. Girls crouch around the coffin and lament, saving Drought is dead, Lord give us rain Then the coffin is carried by children
 in funeral procession, with 8 burning wax candle before 1t, while lamcnta- tions fill the air. Finally. they throw the coffin and the candle into a stream or well"
 In unspoiled parts of Russia the pop ular methods of influencing the wealth CT are less funere2I Sometimes, for instance. Dr Frazer tells Us, after service in church the priest in his robes has been tEtrown down on the groInd and drenched with water by his par ishorers. In Kurck, a province 'f southern Russia, when rain is mucl- wanted the woman seize a passing stranger and throw him into the river or souse him from head IO foot r. you are going to spend your holi- days in southern Russia it is well that you should know this otherwise you may come away with the totally false impression that strangers are un- popular in these parts

Support for the theory that mona Lisa" was carried away by someone whose head had been turned by the beautiful face was found the other evening in the admission by M. L.

ANOTHER FINE PLAY
AT THE GRAND

"The sQuaw Man last night drew,
as it should, a crowded house. The
play is a strong one and with per-
haps one exception the company is
strong. One of the "catchiest things
about the presentation was the ap-
pearance of little 3-year-old Dick
Hayden, who appeared in one scene,
bright-eyed chubby little fellow,
though somewhat sleepy, who did his
little stunt splendidly and made
every woman in the audience want
to take him up in her arms and hug
him.
"The Squaw Man" is up to standard
in every respect and is another fea-
ther in the cap Of the management,
A continuation of this class of plays
means good patronage and the ac-
quiring Of the theater habit by Salem
people.
