ODDITIES IN FOOTWEAR

"Just now" Gays a shoe worker,
there is a craze for the curious IN

fashionable women, and | have the
greatest difficulty in originating some
thing new for my numerous patrons

dancing slippers with cut-glass heels
and the effect is extremely pretty.

Her costume was pure white, and she
had tulle wings on her shoulders, and

king heels as she walked or danced.
These heels caused mild sensation,
and several Of my patrons at once
demanded cut glass heels on their
slippers. The cost is not excessive,
but I cannot believe that they are
comfortable to dance In.
Heels studded with gems are by
no means uncommon, and not so long
ago l received an order for pair OF
dancing shoes which were so en-
crusted with diamonds as to be worth
small fortune. The jewels have to
be very carefully set, of course, other
wise they drop out, and are seldom
found again.
I'VE make shoes Of every known
material. Leather is by no means
always employed, and If I told you
that have made slippers Of human
skin you would probably not believe
me. But this is a fact I can assure
you. Hand-painted slippers are very
ordinary, though when the work Is

come very expensive. Some women
wear very high boots, coming vel
above the knee. In many instances
high shoes are fitted with receptacles
in which the fair wearers keep theil

SALMoN-FISHING IN A CITY
River Taking Short Cut Through In

Seattle, Wash-To be able to stand
on the sides Of the principal business
street of an inland city with popula-
ton of more than G,O0o and catch any
number Of large salmon of all varie-
ties is something that can be enjoyed
right in this section Of Washington.
Puyallup IS the city, and if the run
of salmon continues she will also be
prominent as a fishing center as well
as the hub of agriculture.
As 'fshy" as the story sounds, It IS
nevertheless a fact, and should one
care to venture to Puyallup in quest
of the king os fish well-flled string
would be the result. The fish come

times the water in places bubbles like
an eddy.
Persons in the vicinity of the stream
have taken many a catch to their
homes and there will undoubtedly be a
slump in sales in the fish market as
long as the run continues. The ap-
pearance of the salmon was discov-
cred by Carl Hill, city surveyor, who
was making an investigation of the
condition Of the ditch.

At the first menace Of war Car
Ferdinand of Bulgaria sent to Paris
on a secret mission one of the most
faithful members of his staff. This
parsonage was charged, not as one
might think, with diplomatic negoti-
ations with NJ. Poincare, nor with
our great Partisan tnanciers, but to
buy in one of our most important
magazine novelties, fannels for the
protection Of the precious body Of his
majesty during the rigors Of the cam
paign. But events came on with such
rapidity that this commissioner was
urgently recalled and obliged to re-
gain his post before he was able to
complete his purchases. Therefore,
he left his wife at Paris, charged to
fulfill the delicate mission with which
he had been intrusted. Thanks to
the intelligent activity Of this lady the
imperial package was at last sent
without delay to Sofa. These are
French fannels and will permit the
Car Ferdinand to meet the rigors Of
a winter campaign without running
the risk Of catching cold.

OLD DOG SAVES THE CATTLE
Drives Herd From Burning Shed and
Loses Life Preventing Them
From Returning

Wheeler, S. D.-A shepherd dog was
the hero of a disastrous prairie fire
which swept over portion of Trip
county, in the Rosebud country. When
the fire approached the farm of John
Springer, Mrs. Springer ran to the
cattle shed and opened the door so
the cattle could escape.
Before the woman could drive the
cattle from the shed the fire was so
close and the smoke so dense that she
had to run back to the house and seek
shelter in it.
But the dog remained at its post
and with almost human intelligence
succeeded in driving the cattle out Of
the burning shed, The animals, fright
ened by the fire and smoke made fran
tic efforts to get back into the she'd
but The faithful dog stood guard and
kept them out. When the fire had
swept past the cattle were found
alive, although badly singed, but the
dog had perished.

It can not be truthfully asserted that
the appalling list OF deaths due TO ayi-
alton has been wholly in the interests
Of science. Men who have fallen to
their death while experimenting in the
field OF aviation are entitled to all
the credit due to men who risk life
in the interests of scienu ,.-a trch.
But a majority OF the v.otims have
met death while exhibiting them
selves to the public, not as sC-ontists
but as showmen. In response to
morbid demand OF the public for new
thrills they have taken long chances
for a price, not for the Joy of discov-
cry. Their deaths are due to the
same cause that impels death defying
feats under canvas. The general pub
lie wants to be thrilled. Americans
deprecate the bull fight, and have put
the prize fight under the ban. But
after all, isn't it Just as bad to de-
mand that men shall risk death in or
der to supply the thrill, as it is to de-
mand the blood of 1ulls or to delight in
seeing two human animals, trained
to the limits of physical perfection,
pummel each other to a pulp under
the glare Of electric lights in a roped
in arena?

LOST CITY IS FOUND
Believed to Have Been Built by
Chinese in Mexico.
Three Towns Were Erected on the
Same Site by Three Civilizations
Prior 20 the AEtees-Monsollan
Image ls Discovered.

City or Mexico.-A sensation has
been created In British scientific cir
cles by adviees received from Sir
Martin Conway, Prof. William Niven
and Senor Ramon Mena OF the discoy-
cry OF absolute Mongolian remains
only couple OF hours walk from the
City OF Mexico, thereby confirming
the hypothesis that has long been
held that the most ancient civiliza-
tion OF Mexico and Peru preceding
that OF the Toltecs and the Aztecs
was OF Mongolian origin, says cor
respondent.
Close to and partly beneath the
ruins OF the ancient city OF Tootihua'
can, about nineteen miles northeast
Of the Cisy OF Mexico the scientists
uncovered the still more ancient city
OF Otumba, which flourished with
wondrous civilization centuries before
tho AZtecs or TolCecs rose to power
possibly even before Babylon and
Nineyeh swayed the destinies of west
ern Asia.
With the financial assistance OF the
Mexican government the expedition
began the removal OF a siX-foot layer
Of earth, representing the dust and
detritus OF more than twenty cen
turies. This soon brought into view
many evidences Of vast and popu-
lous city OF a very high order OF civ
illzation. Chief among these was a
great pyramid. 1t is 700 feet square
Rt the base and its apex Is 1877 feet
high, while many Of the giant blocks
Of stone in its massive walls must
have required extraordinary engineer
Ing skill TO handle. This pyramid
also has its riddle, for the axis of the
main gallery is coincidental with the
magnetic meridian.
The workmanship is of a high or
der, the figures being boldly drawn
and carefully colored.
Then came the greatest discovery
Of all. While excavating near the
base of the great pyramid Professor
Niven unearthed the remains of yet a
third civilization beneath the ruins OF
ancient Otumba, making three great
cities Of lost and forgotten races,
built one above the other.
I In what appears to have been a
tomb of the lowest city, whose age so
tar defies calculation, Professor Niven
found the clay image Of a Chinaman.
with oblique eye slits, padded coat,
flowing trousers and slippers. Only
the queue was lacking to make a COM
plete portrait Of a mandarin Of the
recently defunct Chinese empire. 1t
should be remembered, however, that
the Chinese did not adopt the queue
until after they had been conquered
by the Tartar hordes from the north.
The image is about seven inches in
length, and where the arms are
broken the edges of the clay show
red and friable in the center. The
outer surface of the clay. however is
Of granite hardness and 1t is only
with the greatest difficulty that 1t can
be Clipped with hammer.
This Chinese image" writes Pro
tessor Niven, was not made by the
Aztecs. 1t is much older and proves
that the ancient people of Mexico
we're familiar with the Mongol type
1T should be borne in mind that
his image was not a god or an idol,
but an ornameut-perhaps portrait

SOME LONG-LIVED BIRDS

It used to be contended that ravens
lived longer than any other species of
birds, and It was said that their age
frequently exceeded a century. Recent
studies of the subject indicate that no
authentic instance of a raven sur
passing seventy years of age is on
record But parrots have been known
TO live 100 years.
There is a record of a golden eagle
which died at Schonbrunn at the age
of one hundred and eighteen years.
Another golden eagle was kept in the
Tower of London for 80 years. A
third died at Vienna aged one hun
dred and four years.
Geese and swans are tenacious Of
life, and extraordinary accounts exist
of the great age that they have at
tanned. Button and other authorities
have credited them with eighty and
one hundred years Of life.
