Mouths on the Bias,

"Of course it's nice to have a beau
tiful voice, but I'm glad / don't sing"
said a pretty woman as she applauded
after the soprano solo at Broadway
restaurant. Yes, I'm fond Of music,
but that is sufficient. If l could be
tempted to sing, what would happen
to my good looks? I think it Is not
silly for woman to wish to look well
all the time. A woman never looks
pretty or beautiful when she sings
She invariably twists her mouth to one
side and makes her face appear crook
ed. / have keenly observed the last
ten singers l have heard, and every
one Of them opened her mouth on a
bias. l haven't the slightest idea why
they do it unless the muscles of one
side Of the face are stronger than the
other. There is something disturbing
about a pretty woman deliberately
making herself a fright by stretching
her mouth in song."-New York Letter
in Pittsburgh Dispatch.

PAINTINGS That Last,

One Of the great problems that pre-
sents itself to the modern painter is to
keep his canvas from cracking when it
ages. Many of the most priced of the
old masterpieces have been marred be-
cause their creators did not understand
the art of insuring them against time
and weathering. A careful investiga-
ton of those that have come down In
tact shows that in some cases the
sheet of paint is remarkably thin, so
thin, indeed that the texture Of the
canvas can be clearly seen through the
face of the picture. Further expert
menting shows that the life of a pic
ture is inversely proportional to the
thickness of its color layers. Canvas
contracts with moisture and cold, and
paint generally is affected in the same
way. If the paint layer is too thick it
gives way, and the cracking is the re-
suit. All of the old paintings that have
come to us uncracked are painted very
thin. This was the method of such
early masters as Van Dyck, Raphael
and his pupils.-Atlanta Constitution.
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1915-10-15
Locust Eaters.

While. the locust is essentially a
plant devourer and famine breeder,
says the Christian Herald, there are
many well authenticated cases in his
tory showing that populations reduced
to the last extremity have utilized the
destructive insect as food. Diodorus
Siculus relates that an Ethiopian tribe
was known as Acridophagi c'eaters Of
locusts'O, while Aristotle writes of a
certain part of Greece where the peO-
pie regarded them as delicacies Lay
ard, the explorer, found on the en-
graved monuments pictures of dried
and preserved locusts on rods, presum-
ably indicating their use as food. 1t is
not believed that any race today eats
them. They are regarded everywhere
in the east as an abhorrent calamity,
and the presence of vast swarms in
Palestine is held to be forerunner of
complete crop failure, both of fruits
and cereals.
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1915-10-15

After the formal opening of the first
telegraph line built for commercial
purposes between Washington and Bal
timore Professor Morse and his asso-
ciates offered to sell the invention to the
United States government for 100000.
but the price was considered too high.
The government had appropriated $780,
600 toward the construction of the
Washington Baltimore line, but after a
short period Of operation the postmas-
ter general, to whom President Polk
had referred the matter, wrote, CAL
though the invention is an agent vastly
superior to any other devised by the
genius of man, yet the operation be-

not satisfied me that under any rate Of

Mo- ming fer Hel Docs.

Dog funerals are no longer an un-
common thing in New York. Every
lay the local Office of the dog Gene
terry in Twenty-fifth street las few
visitors who shed copioUs tears as
they make arrangements for their
dogs interment. And some of the
numerous mourners are willing to pay
large sums to give their favorite pet
comfortable resting place, even to
the extent of buying tombstones for
them. A ramble through this dog GEN.
etery, which Is at Hartsdale, will dis
close many remarkable instances of
the devotion of owners to the memo
yies of the animals they loved. Most
or the graves have monuments erected
over them with inscriptions telling Of
the good qualities of the bets which
have gone to the happy hunting
grounds" Some of these monuments
are very pretentious affairs and cost
as much as $1,000. The cemetery Ia
