well known doctor. who says that
quite number Of men, including him.
self, have adopted this plan.
"By leaving OF tobacco for one day
week you give your system time to
get rid of the effects of the drug" he
said.
you will then enjoy your tobacco
FAR more, too, because you have be-
come unaccustomed to the flavor, and
It is therefore more enjoyable when
you resume smoking.
"The effect Of tobacco is a general
sedative action on the nervous sys-

sense Of taste RECEIVERS. Not only
that, but leaving of tobacco for one

THE FIRST SOAP.
According to PIiny, Il Was In Use
Amono the Gaujs.

According to PIiny, Il Was In Use
Among the Gauis.
Who invented soap? According to
Pliny, soap was, an invention Of the
Gauls, who used it for giving bright
hue to the hair. He also states that
it was employed by the Germans
both as medicinal and as cleansing
agent, two kinds being used-hard and
soft There is reason to believe that
it was introduced into Germany by the
Romans, though on this point there is
some difference of opinion
Homer tells us in the odyssey" that
Nausicaa. daughter Of Alcinous, king
Of the Phaecians. and her attendants
washed clothes by treading upon
them with their feet in pits Of water.
so that apparently she and her serv-
ants were unac4uainted with the use
Of soap.
The fact that soap was obtaina BILE
by boiling together oily or fatty sub
stances and alkalis was known Mt an
early period Of history. but it must
be borne in mind that the substance
referred to in the Old Testament and
translated SOAP Jeremiah ii. %,
"For though thou wash thee with
utter properly, natrou-soda-and take
thee much SOAP" and Malachi Nv. 2.
"For he Is like ref1ner's fire and
like fuller's soap') refer to the alkali
itself and not to the substances pre-
pared from oily bodies and these aka
line matters.
The French word for soap (savon)
is supposed to have been derived
from the fact Of its having been manu-
featured at Savona. near Genoa.
The manufacture Of soap began in
London in 1924. before which time it
was supplied by Bristol at penny
per pound. A duty was imposed on
soap in I'LL, but after several reduc-
tons was totally repealed in 1853

several descriptions Of the grewsome

The priests are dressed in white sack
cloth, similar to that worn by the
mourners at the funerals Of the lay

white bandages. The corpse. dressed
in a cowl and with the hands fixed in
an attitude of prayer. is placed in

carried to the funeral pyre by some Of
his fellow monks, all the other monks

London Through the Ages.

London Through the Ages.
The occupation of the site of London
dates back much farther than most
readers are aware. The city that
Julius Caesar found occupied a site
which had been inhabited for unnum-
bered thousands Of years. 1t is now
known that during paleolithfc and
neolithic times-the two great divi-
sions Of the stone age-man dwelt on
the site Of London, but it first became
the settlement Of community at the
opening of the historic age. when 1t
was stronghold of the Celts. The
remains of its Roman period are the
finest of the kind in Great Britain
The Anglo-Saxon and Danish periods
are finely represented, and even later
periods, such as the Tudor, furnish rel
les that have been buried by that
strange process Of superintendent
growth which makes the soil under

strata of geology.-Youth's Companion

Washington Monumen, Bent by Heat.

Washington Monumen. Bent by Heat.
The towering Washington monu-
ment, solid as it is. cannot resist the
heat Of the sun poured on its southern
side on midsummer's day without
slight bending of the gigantic shaft,
which is rendered perceptible by
means Of copper wire ia feet long
hanging in the center Of the structure
and carrying plummet suspended in
q vessel of water. At noon in summer
the apex of the monument, $50 feet
above the ground, is shifted by ex-
pansion Of the stone few hundredths
of an inch toward the north. High
winds cause perceptible motions Of the
plummet. and in still weather delicate
vibrations of the crust of the earth
otherwise unperceived are registered
bv it.

sTuYvEsANT's LOST LEG.
Doubt as to Which II Was Shown In
Paintings and Statues.

Doubt as to Which II Was Shown In
Paintings and Statues.
There is no doubt Peter Stuyvesant
had wooden leg. The histories tell
Of how he stomped about the streets
Of New Yieuw Amsterdam, leaving a
dot and dash trail in the road like a
Morse CODE But there is one point on
which historians seem perplexed-or It
may be that the readers Of history are
unobserving which leg had the good
Peter lost?
In the Wall street section those who
roam may see at least five representa-
lions Of the late lamented governor of
the Dutch colony. Three Of these are
painted on the panels of signs, and two
are statues, like Peters leg, made Of
wood
One of the statues and two Of the
paintings represent the governor wear
ing chair leg attached to his right
neither limb, while in the others paint
ers and sculptors have chosen to rep
resent that it was his left leg he had
lost.
All show the leg bedecked with rib
bon bows, and all show him as a be-
nign individual-not at all in keeping
with the character given him by the
historians in questi0n-wearing knick-
erbockers and felt chapeau and Offer
ing roll Of manuscript to whomso-
ever looks.-New York Times.
