"Oyer the River"
Dear Miss Doom

Dear Miss Doom:
Can you kindly let me know if there
is any dancing in the play entitled,
over the River" produced by Charles
Dillingham; and F. ZiegfeId. Grateful
ly yours, A CONSTANT READER.
Yes, there are a number of dances
in lover the River" 1t will be pro-
'duced at the Newark Theatre during
the week of September 8.
L. B.-The best way for you
to do will be to invite the host
ess to your home, so that she
can meet your friend and have
an opportunity of extending the
invitation to him. In case you can
not arrange this there will be no
harm in your extending the invitation
in the hostess's place. You can ex-
plain that you hoped to introduce
them before the event planned, but
that you were unable to arrange mat
tiers. Invite one of your friends whom
YOU are sure will accept because he
wishes TO go not because he thinks it
is his duty.

MURKY GREEN PETROLEUM.
Processes by Which II Is Converted
into Refined Oil.

In its original state petroleum is Of a
murky green color 1t is distilled in
pans with great furnaces blazing be-
meath them, and as the vapors arise
from the boiling liquid they are con-
veyed into pipes surrounded by cold
water in which they are condensed.
The first vapors condense into naph-
tina and those produced by further
heating give the burning oil. A very
small percentage of the crude oil put
into the pans or stills remains In the
form Of tar. which by another process
is converted into paraffin and coke.
After distillation the refined oil is no
longer green, but is as transparent as
spring water and beautifully tinged
with puppies and blues. 1t is not yet
ready for use, however. since it must
be washed" The fluid is emptied into
a large circular tank in which it is
treated with acids. these being poured
in and mixed with it by means of pow
erful pressure from beneath.
When it has been we'll shaken it is
allowed to settle, and the acids then
separate from it and sink to the bot
tom Of the tank, taking with them
some Of the tar that remained in the
Oil.
The acids are then removed and the
oil is washed with salt water. Finally
it is bleached. and it is then ready for
the market-Harper's Weekly.

THE OPEN MOUTH.
Causes That Induce II When We Ara
lntently Listening.

Causes That Induce II When We Ars
Intently Listening.
Why do we open our mouths when
intently listening?
There are three causes, entirely in.
dependent Of one another, but acting
in unison, for this action. There is a
passageway called the eustachian tube,
connecting the back of the throat and
the middle ear, the part behind the
drum. When intently listening we
hold our breath, and this permits
sound waves to enter the mouth and
reach the eustachian tube, and in this
way they reach the drum and re-en-
force the sound waves that come
through the natural channel, the outer
ear.
In concentrated attention the mind is
fully engrossed in the one subject. and
it loses control over voluntary muscles
that are not directly affected by the
subject or the process involved in the
motor activity that accompanies men
tai activity. The muscles are relaxed.
the lower jaw drops. and this opens
the mouth.
The third cause is referable to alta.
vism. or the tendency to return in form
or action to an early type. Early man,
like the animals. was urged to action
by the fundamental instincts, self
preservation and race preservation.
His two aims were to secure food and
avoid or destroy enemies. Like the
animals, when his attention was at
tracted by a sound he placed himself

DIG THEIR OWN GRAVES.
English Army Methods In tho Exeou.
ton Of Condemned Spies.

moI1O0S TITO G10Cue
ton Of Condemned Spies.
The ceremony of disposing Of a con-
demned spy in the English army al
ways follows a definite precedent.
The unfortunate man is surround ed
by a detachment Of Infantry, and after
he Is provided with a pick and shovel
he Is marched off to selected spot
and ordered to dig his own grave.
This done. the tools are taken from
him and his eyes are bandaged. The
attending chaplain reads portions Sc
lected from the burial service, and
from the ranks of the escort twelve
men are selected at random by the
officer in charge.
These men. having stacked their own
rifles, are led to where twelve other
rifles are awaiting them, six Of which
are loaded with blank cartridges. One
of these is handed to each man. so
that no one knows whether the rife
he holds contains a bullet or not. and
none can say for certain that the shot
fred by him killed the prisoner. The
firing party then marches to an ap-
pointed position. The commands ''Pre-
sent" Fire." are given. and almost
before the last word rings out the
volley is fred and the spy falls into
the grave he has dug.
Nearly every man is more or less af-
fected on being selected to form one
Of the firing party. and many men
have been known to faint away on be-
Ing singled out, while others are so
overcome as to be scarcely able to
pull the triggers of their rifles.

CHICAGO, July 8.-More than TO-

The battle for control of the con-

A Burning Subject.
The subject of alleged sex contest
for supremacy was discussed by mem
bers before the meeting of the board.
Secretary Irwin Shepard, of Winona,
Mimi, said that there was consider

the by-lays in regard to the right of
new active members to vote, and that
the committee may exercise the pow
er some believe it to have to settle
this question in the face of the ambi-
guilty said to exist in the bylaws.
Two years ago, at the Boston con-
vention, measure was proposed to re-
strict new active members from vot-
ing If their membership dated back
less than three months from a conven-
ton. 1t was necessary to defer voting
on this proposed amendment one year
and it was tabled last year at the San
Francisco convention.
According to Mr.. Shepard it was the
296 new members admitted at this con-
vention that determined the tabling of
the motion. Aside from these there
was an active membership present of
$50. Only present members are allow

Sumptuary Laws.

The first sumptuary laws that we
know anything about were those OF
Lycurgus, the Spartan. about 900 B. c.,
unless the laws of Moses are to take
priority. If the so called Mosaic CODE
was really the work Of Moses. then they
must be looked upon as being the old
est sumptuary laws in existence. If,
however. the Mosaic laws are no older
than the reign Of King Josiah. then the
Spartan code of Lycurgus is the Oldest.
At any rate. the honor lies between
Lycurgus and the author of the Mosaic
code.-New York American.
