ISAIAH SOCIETY REPORTER,
ASSERTS CHICAGO RABBI.
Could Describe Women's Attire as
Well as Fashion Expert.

The prophet Isaiah, who lived 100
years before the birth of Christ. was.
in the estimation of Rabbi Emil G..
Hirsch of Sinai temple. Chicago. one
of the best society reporters that ever
existed.
And as to the manipulation Of
the eyebrow pencil, the application Of
the rabbits foot that has been dipped
in the rouge pot and other little things
that go far in the toilet of the modern
woman, DR.. Hirsch believes that the
woman of the year 1911 has not ad-
vanced far beyond the Jewish woman
who lived seven centuries before the
dawn of the Christian era.
DR.. HirSch asked any of his hear
ers who might doubt his word TO read
the third chapter of Isaiah for verifi-
cation.
I'm this chapter" said DR.. Eirsch,
''you win find description of a lady's
toilet which for detail rivals. the most
skillful society reporters information
about Mrs Newly Feathered or Mrs.
Newly We'd The prophet describes
infinitely the rouge box, the pencil for
the eyebrows and other minute details
of the toilet of the women of that age.
And, from what 1 know, I do not be-
lieve that in this regard women of
today have progressed much beyond
those of that time"
The chapter in Isaiah to which DR..
Hirsch referred contains the following
passages:
In that day the Lord will take away the
bravery of their tinkling ornaments about
their feet, and the cauls. and the cres-
cents; the pendants. and the bracelets,
and the muffiers: the head tires. and the
ankle chains. and the sashes. and the per-
fume boxes. and the amulets: the rings.
the nose Jewels. the festal robes, and the
mantles. and the shawls. and the satchels;
the hand mirrors, and the fine linen. and
the turbans, and the wells.
And ii shall come to pass that instead
of sweet spices there shall be rottenness.
and instead OF a girdle rope. and in
stead of well set hair badness. and in
stead of a stomacher girding of sack
cloth; branding instead of beauty.
IF that isn't society reporting" said
Dr. Hirsch, 'then / don't know what
is"

FIRE EATERS.
The Trick of Breathing Flames and
Sparks From the Mouth.

The Trick of Breathing Flames and
Sparks From the Mouth.
Fire tricks were practiced in very
ancient times. The first known fire
breather was a Syrian slave named
Eunus, leader in the Servile war in
Sicily, 100 3. C. He pretended to have
immediate communication with the
gods. When DESTROYS of inspiring his
followers with courage he breathed
flames and sparks from his mouth.
In order to accomplish this feat Eu
nus pierced a nutshell at both ends,
and. having filed it with some burn
ing substance, he put it in his mouth
and breathed through it. The same
trick is performed today in a more
approved manner. The performer rolls
some fax or hemp into a ball about
the size of a walnut, which he let's
burn until it is nearly consumed.
Then he rolls around it more fax
while it is still burning. BY this
means the fire is retained in the ball
for a long time. He slips this ball
into his mouth unperceived and
breathes through it. His breath re-
wives the fire, and he sustains no in
jury so long as he inhales only through
his nOstrilS.
Various theories have been advanced
to account for other feats of this sort
performed by the ancients. An old
ordeal was the holding Of a redhot
iron by the accused, who was not
burned If he were innocent. Probably
some protective paste was used on the
hands. The peculiar property of
mineral salts. such as alum. in pro-
tecting articles of dress from fire has
long been known. An old Milanese
devised a costume consisting Of a
cloth covering for the body which had
been STEPPED in alum. A metallic
dress of wire gauze was added to this,
and thus protected man might walk
on hot iron.-Harper's.

Wanted Only Auto Horn In Existence
Like Sample.
An orchestral instrument maker of
Markneukirchen. in Saxony. has dis
covered that the patronage of the Ger
man emperor is not an unmixed bless
ing. Three years ago he invented an
automobile horn which sounded four
notes. The first one he finished in
pure silver and presented to the kai-
ser.
The kaiser was so delighted with
the new instrument that he gave i'm
mediate orders forbidding anybody
else TO have one like ii. The inventor
found 3his compliment too much Of
business drh wback 10 enjoy for more
than a very brief spell.
For the last three years he has been
doing his utmost to get permission to
manufacture the instrument for the
general public. He has Just succeeded
in securing a special decree from the
federal council of the empire whereby
motor horns of four notes may be en-
pioyed by motorists when touring in
the country, but it continues to con-
stitute g misdemeanor to use such a
horn in towns or cities. where 1t will
remain the exclusive privilege CT the
kaiser.
The king OF Saxony recently outbid
the emperor by ordering the Markneu-
kirchen manufacturer to construct for
him q horn with six notes Princess
August Wilhelm, one of the kaiser's
daughters-in-law. has q motor horn
which performs melodious theme.

VT was Jesus Of Nazareth who said
in an age when prophets were
- many, "a prophet is not without
honor save in his own country
and in his own house" In all rever-
ence it may be averred that the reser-
walton contained in the last clause of
this saying is not applicable to Mark
Twain. Here was a prophet with
honor not only throughout the world
but to far more intensified degree In
his own country and IN bis own house.
Even in the house where he lived in
boyhood and in the town and state
which may be called his own coun-
try Mark Twain was not without
honor during his lifetime. and now that
he has passed from earth as a living
presence his memory is to be honored
and perpetuated in tangible form.

souri, bank of the mighty Mississippi,

same Mississippi river and others
abutting other American streams. But
to the Hannibal resident there is only
one Lovers Leap, and that is the rag
ged, jagged, rocky, but precipitous and
picturesque bluff that rises sharp and
sheer 265 feet above the level of the
river, with railroad trains laundering
and factory machines whirring in the
narrow strip below on the very bank
of the stream.
This Hannibal Lovers Leap is dis
tinct from all the others. Each has its
legend Of the pretty Indian maiden
and her dusky lover who hurled them
selves from the edge of the bluff be-
cause pater or mater or both forbade
the bans. HannibaPs leap is different
because it Is associated with Mark
Twain's early life and with some of
his most popular works.
Shrunk With Age.
The present writer well remembers.
the very last time Mark Twain visited
his home, how the humorist lay in bed
at his hotel in his white nightgown,
smoking a black cigar and looking
from his southern window through the
matchless glory Of a June morning
down across the gorge of Bear creek to
a certain bluff that jutted up from
the rivers edge. He gazed and gazed
and was silent. Finally he said, slow
" and with perfect pathos:
I'm looking for Lovers Leap. and 1
reckon that must be it; but. oh, how
much smaller it is than it was when
was a boy"
Then he smoked and smoked and
was silent. 1 stole softly out of his
room That was the only thing l
ever stole in Hannibal, but l felt that
was justified.
And so it is this Lovers Leap, the
one that was beloved by Mark Twain
through more than threescore years
of his wandering life, which is TO be
the arch and acme of the new Mark
Twain park. This world man, who

about twenty breakfasts, luncheons and
