Sir Walter RaIeiqh's Pipe.

A pipe with a history is to be of.
fered for sale in London. 1t was once
the property of Sir Walter Raleigh
and is not unlike the letter "Y" in
shape and for centuries now has had
its home in an ancient inlaid box
dated "Anno 1927" 1t is construct
ed in four pieces Of wood, rudely
carved with dogs heads and with the
faces of red Indians.
On the bowl there is a cap about
as large as the bowl itself. and at
tached to the stem is string OF
beads made of the same wood as the
pipe. In this stem a powerful whis
tie has been cut, and the suggestion
is that Sir Walter Raleigh used it to
summon his servants.
The Archaeological Society exhibit
ed 1t at the Guildhall in the sos OF
the last century, the inscription &C
companying it bearing these words:
THE original pipe of the above cele.
brated Historian of the World and
who first introduced tobacco and po-
tatoes' into England. Tradition (cor.
roborated by parchment in the pos.
session of the owner) states that this
pipe was used by Sir Waiter Raleigh
on the scaffold just previous to his
execution and handed to one of his
relatives as a memento of him.

JEALOUS OF THE new CAMEL
Elephant In Jardin des PIantss Pun
ished His Former Admirers for
Their Fickleness.

At the Jardin des Plantes In Paris
there occurred recently an incident
that showed that animals are subject
to feelings very like those which oc-
casionally rufne the bosoms Of men.
A large elephant, formerly the CEN
ter Of attraction, found itself sup
planted in public favor by a new
arrival-a young camel The camel
was the latest acquisition, and very
naturally engaged the attention OF
visitors.
The elephant for a long time showed
signs Of dissatisfaction, and at last its
jealousy reached point where it
must find expression. When the usual
crowd gathered about the camel, the
elephant prepared for action. 1t filled
its trunk with water, and with de-
liberate aim discharged the water all
over the people who stood looking at
the baby camel.
This method of throwing cold water
upon the admirers Of rival brought
a laugh even from its victims.
In certain parts Of India railroad
engineers have many difficulties to en-
counter, some of them more amusing
to read than to experience. The fol-
lowing is one such difiiculty:
A freight train was numbering along
when a big elephant came out OF
the woods and undertook to butt the
engine OF the rack. The engineer did
not like to chorge the beast, for fear
Of an upset. and several times re-
versed the engine, in the vain hope
that the elephant would take that as
a sign of surrender and retire.
Finally the elephant backed into the
engine, and setting its forefeet firmly
between the rails, endeavored to push
the rtin backward with its hind
quarters.
The engineer promptly put on all
steam, toppled the elephant over d
small embankment, and before it
could recover its senses, the train
passed on.
There was a cat that chose a pecu-
liar spot for a bed. Comfort was the
cats object, and the chosen spot did
not seem to be calculated to afford 1t.
The cat was found fast asleep In a
large ship-building yard, lying on
what seemed to be a very muddy
path.
1t was found, however, that the spot
chosen by the cat for its couch was
the point at which a hot steam-pipe
passed under the road, SO that the
mud was baked into a warm, dry clay.

porch being fitted UP for sleeping
quarters, this room can be used as a
den or as a nursery.
People today have come to realize
the value and hygienic necessity of
plenty of fresh air. This has come
about through long education. The
fresh-air cure for consumption is even
now established as fact, and camps
are maintained in many parts of the
country for the treatment of this dis
case by the fresh-air method. 1t is
needless to say that no member of a
family living in bungalow like this
will ever need treatment for that
dread disease. The open window at
night is the greatest safeguard against
disease. 1t is in the winter when the
windows are closed, shutting out the
pure air, that most ailments are con-
tracted.
The bungalow displayed here can
be built for a nominal sum, say some
where around $1,000 to $1,000, under
favorable conditions of the market
for materials and labor. The interior
of the house, for instance, where most
of the money in building is usually
spent, can be simplicity itself. The
ceilings can be beamed, and the sides
of the walls finished with panels or
with wainscoting and vanished or
stained.
AS for the exterior, the design is adj
mirably adapted to being finished with
cement stucco. On the sheathing, tar
paper should be tackled; and over this,
Turing strips nailed. Then either
expanded metal or wooden lath can
be used. Two coats. will be required.

Lawmaker Mikes Met.rh,,

James Ramsay Macdonald, M. p
has added a gem to the collection of
mixed metaphors for which political
orators are famous. Referring to the
synlicalists, Mr.. Macdonald said:
No sooner do they get themselves
into hole than they put down
a string SO that they may pull them
out OF 1t. The Delilah of syndicalism
has endeavored to cut the locks of
trades unionism, SO that it becomes a
mere piece Of putty in the hands of
the political authorities"
This is declared to be the most mag
nificent mixing Of metaphors by an
English public man since John
Burns inveighed against the London
county council for taking a white ele-
phant under it's wing"
