CONFUSION TO
bible CRITICS
DR.. Mulhall Says Whole
World Will Marvel at
Deciphered Records
$4,000 OF THEM YET
TO BE TRANSLATED

The Rev. DR.. L. W. Munhall, OF
Philadelphia, eminent as Bible
scholar in the Methodist Episcopal
Church. who is well-known to many
Wilmingtonians on Tuesday predicted
that additional translations Of the
Nippur tablets in the possession of
the University Of Pennsylvania will
bring confusion to the destructive
school Of Bible critics. He said.
only a beginning has been made in
the translation of that wonderful IL
brary possessed by the University Of
Pennsylvania. No more than a chap
ten has ever been written. There are
moro than $4,000 tablets yet to be de-
ciphered,. and / predict that this IL
brary will give us information rela-
tive to the ancients that will make
the whole world marvel
THAT library Is of inestimable
value. It's acquisition is the greatest
accomplishment scored by any insti-
tuition of learning The University
authorities deserve the highest praise
for their enterprise in obtaining Il.
Professor Hilprecht also deserves
praise. Oxford University must come
to the University Of Pennsylvania to
learn"
Doctor Munhall was asked whether
the Nippur tablets, containing des-
criptions Of the Creation, the Flood
and other incidents recorded In the
Book of Genesis, would destroy the
value of the Mosaic record as a di-
vine revelation. He replied
"GpriginIN pnf foot D.,
priest In the Temple of Nippur wrote
about these things does not interfere
with our belief that God revealed
them to Moses On the contrary,
these earlier records tend to confirm
the things recorded in the Book Of
Genesis. The Bible critics have
sought to discredit Genesis by all
sorts Of arguments. One was that
the art Of writing was not understood
in Moses time. and in consequence,
the great law-giver could not have
given the world this wonderful re-
cord. The Nippur tablets give us
convincing proof that the art of writ
ing was understood hundreds Of
years prior to Moses time.
These tablets prove that the things
Moses wrote about in Genesis must
be true, since men who lived cen
turies before Moses wrote concerning
them"
Doctor Munhall is a member of the
Archaeological Society Of the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania, and has engaged
in archaeological work in Egypt and
Syria. He asserts that the cuneiform
texts Of the Assyrians and the cylin-
drical records of Babylonia have veri-
iied every historical statement in the
first eleven chapters OF Genesis.
"In the subsequent portion of the
Pentateuchal record" he says, "the
scene shifts to Syria and Egypt. and
Psychologists have verified more thar
300 historic statements in this por.
tion of the narrative. This has led
Professor Clay. formerly Of the Uni.
versity of Pennsylvania and now OF
Yale University, TO assert that those
who believe the Old Testament have
no occasion to fear any part of that
record will be disproved, since nearly
all of It has been verified by the an
tiquarians."

 Cardui is like a dear friend to come and take hold and do women's tiresome work. Now, when I have heavy work, such as washing, iron. ing, sweeping, or sewing, I take a dose of Cardm and it seems to go to all my aching places and relieves me almost instantly.

THAT HIGHWAY COST.

The estimate from the State High way Department that the five miles of new road necessary to the com pletion of the Little Rock highway will cost $3000O was quite a stagger- CT at first. but an analysis of the situation proves that there is yet hope in the situation.
 To begin with, County Judge Mooney had the estimate made on a
 basis of reducing the grades to q maximum of five per cent. That was all right in the event such low gen eral grades did not prove too expen- siye a luxury. but yesterday County Judge Mooney said that there could be quite saving made in the ox- pense by permitting the grades to reach q higher percentage.
 It is a we'll known fact that the highway will be used generally about miles from the city for gen eral hauling. but the latter part of the road, from that distance out to the county line, will for the most part serve as an automobile highway for this resort We must stick to this resort feature, and the adyan- tages it will prove to this city.
 Autoists do not mind the grades IF THEY HAVE THE SURFACE. It Is generally believed that if this highway contained varying grades over GOOD SURFACE, from this city to the county line, it would he just as much appreciated. and more widely advertised for it's advantages, than if it's grades were confined to low figure, or even if it were a flat road to Little Rock
 These are matters for the con sideration of the people. This high way is going to cost money, and It's benefits must be measured by cost. But Hot Springs must have a good highway for automobile travel 70 Little Rock-not because of Little Rock, but because it opens an ave nue of travel to the people of this and other states. and will make oar city sought out by auto tourists at all times of the year.
 The idea of making one more sur vey of the wire Road" before de i fnitely undertaking the work of on this latter proposed | route, is not without favor. It is not now a question of selecting my | definite or particular route but of selecting the most feasible route for a highway that will give Hot Springs | an outlet to the country at large for auto Travel.

DANDRuFF SCALED OFF SCALP

My hair would grow a cer- tain length and break of aAd fall out. The falling out was always pre- ceded by the breaking out of the pimples and itching. Dandruff scaled of my scalp and could be seen in my hair.

In the morning I washed the scalp thoroughly with Cuticura Soap and water. I then bought some Cuticura Soap and Ointment from my druggist I treated my scalp for nine months.

The body of the jacket is cut with the shoulder in one piece. and the three quarter straight sleeve is set in with a little fullness at the top. The jacket is finished with rolling collar of the velvet held in place by small wires. It is provided with buttonholes and large buttons matching those used to decorate the front of the skirt. By way of finishing touch little pocket at each side Is simulated.
 The bottom of the sleeves and of the jacket, the pocket-fap and the top of the sleeves, are decorated with a fine latticework of the smallest soutache braid. This decoration ap- pears again in band across the front of the skirt The dress is worn over a longsleeved blouse of wash silk or crepe de chine.

4 RETURN to simplicity in lines <A and style is promised in dress de signs for the coming fall season. Prophets of fashion say that we shall be governed by things military in the matter of clothes. We may therefore expect shorter shoulder lines, straight skirts, waistcoat effects, buttons and braids in decorations. The boise of the figure will change, and the proper thing in carriage will also be mill tary. That is, this will all happen if the purveyors of fashion are right in their predictions.
 But the transition from our loosely hanging, easy-going garments of to- day will not be too sudden The gown pictured here shows signs of transi- ton. One first remarks in 1t the ab- sence of the long tunic and the disap- pearance of any extra .drapery in the sktrt. The skirt is, however, cut SO that 1t does not hang in straight lines but has the effect of wrapping the figure somewhat. A

TWO very pretty bonnets which illus ' trate little frivolities of headwear in which the summer girl is privileged to indulge herself are shown here. One of them, the beach bonnet, is pat termed after the sun bonnet of long ago. But it is made of less substan- tial materials and suggests a short life and merry one for it's own ex- perience. The beach bonnet is also called a garden bonnet, and is, in fact, a sun bonnet to be put on for the practical purpose of shading the eyes and face whenever the girl on an out ing may need it.
 These beach bonnets are made of thin wash fabrics, such as dimity, fig ured lawns, organdies, cotton crepes, or any of the semi-transparent fabrics. They are trimmed with val laces. The bonnet in the picture is made of a lavender lawn. The brim is stiffened with an interlining of crinoline having fine thread-wire sewed about the edge. It is trimmed with a band of the lawn edged with val lace, which extends around the crown and forms two rosettes at the front. The crown Is simply puff of lawn.
 These little bonnets made as de- scribed may be successfully laundered if they are taken apart and the work very carefully done. In this case the brims are to be little stiffened with starch. But laundering is really not counted in when they are constructed. They cost next to nothing and the same lace will serve on new bonnet. They are very pretty in lowered lawns and in the quaint figured cotton crepes. The brims must not be too stiff, for they are supposed to be ''1oppy" about the face.
