The Nss and Old Geology.

In It's early history geology present
cd two schools insisting on a doe

Famous Brides Petticoat.

A cambric petticoat, yellow with age
and trimmed in fine crocbeted edging
and insertion, holds the record of hay
ing been 55 years in one family and of
having served 1S brides as the some
thing old" which every maid must
wear to the nuptial altar. This petit
coat was made Sc years ago by Nancy
Emma Stroud Of Atlanta, Ga, who
wore it to the altar when she became
the bride of Aaron Nunnally of the
same city. Even before forming part
Of her nuptial attire it was famous,
for Mrs. Nunnally made it when she
was pupil of the Baptist college in
Madison, Ca, and it took the prize not
only for the exquisite needlework, but
also for the fine and excellent quality
of the handmade lace. Less than a
year afterward younger sister was
married and the petticoat was loaned.
Sixteen other brides have worn the
Stroud petticoat and it has been sent
recently to form part of the bridal
fnery of Mrs. Stroud's granddaughter,
Miss Rose Belle Hines of Mckinney.

THEN THEY WERE MARRIED
Millionaire Produces Morocco Case
That Has Startling Effect on Cho-

''It isn't true that every beautiful

M. Cohan, the brilliant young actor
playwright of New York; ''but 1t iS
certainly true that some chorus girls
are.
81 know an aged millionaire who laid
his heart at the feet of one of the
most beautiful chorus girls who ever
trod the Great White Way. But the
girl received those protestations Of
devotion coldly.
"'Are you deaf to my suit? the poor
old fellow groaned.
"'Yes, / am said the chorus girl,
and she laughed coldly.
"Then the millionaire took from the
packet Of his frock coat black mo-
rocco case. He sprung the gold clasp;
the lid flew back; within. on a bed Of
black satin, glittered n necklace Of
huge diamonds. The chorus girl gave
a little, breathless cry. The necklace
seemed alive. 1t seemed, on its black
satin bed, thing of pure fire that
writhed and glowed and trembled, con-
tinually emitting the clearest rays.
"'Are you still deaf?' asked the mill
lionaire.
"'Ah, no. sighed the chorus girl.
'Ah, no; am not stone deaf"

CAUSE OF CANCER IN CHINA
Eating Of Steaming Hot Food Respon-
sibIe for Prevalence Of Disease
Among Men.

In China, when a native family sits
down to dine, the men Of the house
hold and the male guests, II there be
any, are served first. Their food
comes to them steaming hot. The
women must wait until later to be
served, and by that time the food has
grown cooler. The men commence to
eat Immediately the dishes of steam
ing hot food are set before them.
Rice, COW peas and other things are
bolted hot. The women have to be
satisfied with only lukewarm dishes.
So much for etiquette. Now for the
consequences. In China cancer of the
oesophagus, or throat, Is common
among men. Among Chinese women
the disease is very rare; practically
unknown.
All of this, and more, was reported
by DR.. K. ID. Bashford at the recent
annual meeting Of the Imperial Can
Ger Research Fund held In London. He
said, in referring TO the alarming in
roads made by cancer among China
men, that the frequency of the disease
would be diminished If such practices
as the eating OF very hot rice were
discontinued. The rice the women
eat is cool and non-lrritating, and
they rarely contract cancer.

kniohthood for Women.

1t Is not at all well known that
knighthood has constantly been con-
ferred upon women. Many English
ladies received the accolade and
many more were members of such
knightly orders as the Garter and ST.
John. When Mary Cholmondeley, the
bold lady of Cheshire" was knighted
by Elizabeth for her valiant adj
dress" on the queen taking the COM
mand at the threatened invasion by
Spain, did she know that a whole
city of Spanish women, the gallant
women of Tortosa, had been knighted
for saving that city from the Moors ?
Mary and Elizabeth had both been
knighted at their coronation; but by
the time Anne, the second Mary, and
Victoria ascended the throne 1t had
been quite forgotten that according
to English law and use woman who
filled a mans Office acquired all it's
privileges and was immune from none
of it's duties.

has done her l can say it will do all
