GiIbsrt Always Remembered

This Gilbert story reaches me from
an old Harrovian, says q writer in the
Manchester Guardian In 1872 the PEG
pie Of the town got up theatricals to
raise funds for hospital. DR.. Butler
the head master, said he would not
allow the school to go unless the pieces
were first submitted to him. One was
Gilbert's palace of Truth" In is a
passage in which the hero says to the
heroine. meet me at o'clock tonight
outside the garden gate" DR.. Butler
vetoed this and substituted, Meet me
at 3 o'clock this afternoon" This
seemed to him more decOrous. Some
years after Gilbert was invited to the
Harrow speeches. In reply to the toast
Of his health he said, Il am very much
interested in visiting Harrow, for as
tar as know it is the only place in
the world where a line Of mine has
ever been condemned0as improper !"
Great CONSERVATION prevailed-all the
greater because no one except the
speaker and one other person, who was
just leaving Harrow in 1872, knew
what he meant 1t was not Gilbert's
way to forget these things.

DECAY OF THE Teeth.
Lime Starvation the Basic Cause, Says
a Chemist.

Lime Starvation the Basic Cause, Says
a Chemist.
"The almost universal decay of the
teeth is proof positive that our nation
Is suffering lime starvation" writes a
chemistry lecturer in the Dietetic and
HYGIENE Gazette.
"Our dentists prescribe tooth washes
and tooth pastes, advocate local hygi-
enc, fill cavities and fit bridges, and
allx this time ignore the fact that the
basic cause is lime starvation.
dentists will tell you that the sugar
you take in your mouth acts directly
upon your teeth. Dentists shut their
eyes to the evident fact that decay
starts first in the pulp beneath the in
tact enamel and honeycombs the in
terror tooth until the shell-like bridge
of enamel breaks beneath the strain.

SAVAGE SPORT.
Shaping Game Of the Bontoe igorrotes
Unique Contest.

Shaping Game Of the Bontoc tgorrotes
Unique Contest.
Every nation has its own idea Of
sport. That Of the wild Igorrotes of
northern Luzon used to consist prin-
cipally Of head hunting. grisly and
bloody recreation which the American
occupation discouraged. But not all
the pastimes Of the Igorrotes are as
horrible as this. One rather amusing
game of which they are fond is thus
described by Dean q. Worcester In the
National Geographic Magazine:
A constabulary officer tells us that
II we want to see a unique contest we
must ask for the slapping game Of the
Bontoc Igorrotes. We want to see all
there is going and say SO.
A wooden bench is brought out, and
two little and muscular young men
step forward. One of them squats on
the bench, grasping his right thigh in
his hands so as to tighten the muscles
as much as possible.
The other stands beside him and
stretches out his right arm. He
throws his arm back and then sweeps
it forward in full round arm swing
The blow falls On thin air, close to the
frightened thigh muscles of his oppO-
nent.
He now swings his arm back again,
his whole body turning with it; rises
on the toes Of his left foot and puts
every ounce of strength which he pos
sesses into a blow delivered with the
fiat of his hand upon the rigid thigh
Of his opponent. Knots Of muscle
spring out on his arm, back and legs
as he strikes and the blow cracks like
revolver shot.
The recipient endeavOrs. sometimes
with poor success. to preserve an ex-
preston of contemptuOus indifference.
The judges examine his thigh. II the
blow has been hard enough blood will
show just beneath the skin and he
will not have the stisfaction of taking
a whack at his opponent. but If this
result has not been achieved the other
must take his seat on the bench and
submit to be smitten.
The contest continues until one sue
ceeds in producing the bloody mark
on the other.

he was not with Paul Beattie on Sat-
urday and Thursday nights before
the murder, and in many instances
the testimony of witnesses for the
defense was shattered.
Mrs. E. j. Houchins, the aged
mother-in-law of Paul Beattie, was IL
strong witness for the State. She
testified that Henry did keep the en-
gagement with Paul on Thursday
night preceding the murder.
The statement of Ernest Neblitt
that he saw Paul Beattie with gun
at Mayo Bridge on the Sunday be-
fore the homicide was shattered COM
pletely by 10 or II witnesses, one Of
whom said that Neblitt had asked
him to point out Paul Beattie on the
courthouse green, showing conclu-
sively that Neblitt did not even know
Paul by sight.
Witnesses also proved for the pro-
secutiOn that Kastleberg was back
from his joy ride on the Midlothian
turnpike by 1920, while the murder
of Mrs. Beattie occurred at 10:45.
By this strong evidence of rebuttal
the State today has changed the
opinion of the many people who had
predicted a hung jury. One point
after another built up by the defense
was torn down by the prosecution,
and that the State has not even yet
played its full strength is shown by
the confident attitude of its lawyers
Tomorrow will be spent by the at
torneys in arguing the instructions
that the court will give the jury.
During the argument the jury will be
taken to the scene of the crime, so
that it may be fresh in their minds
when the real argument of the case
begins.
1t is the belief here today that
| the jury will have rendered it's ver-
dict before the expiration of the
week.
