Another interesting fact in this same connec-

bird identical with the found mummihed

and five turkey cocks. This is thought to be the
first record OF the turkey in this country and
antedates the expedition of Cortes to Mexico in
1919
But the turkey goes back farther among the
Indians than even the probable date at which
the specimen found in the existed Among
the Zunts. for instance, there exist many legends
handed down from time immemoral which have
for their subject the turkey.
The turkey plays more important part in the
life OF the Indian than in his legends alone Not
only is it regarded choice article of food
but IN many tribes it Is held sacred In the parts
of the country where the turkey was worshped
with that curious devotion to animals which
characterizes different stages In the development

even then separate portions divided among
various tribes, SO that the religious custom would

II enjamn Franklin's words had been needed
the turkey would have been the national bird OF
the United States. The eagle is a first cousin to
the species Known of old in the eastern hemis-
phere Furthermore, it has appeared upon the
banners OF many nations. 1t was symbol OF the
Roman empire. 1t was known In China for ages
and today 1t appears upon the banners OF Russia
Germany and several other nations.
The turkey, however, is Indigenous to America
When the early European adventures and set
tiers arrived they beheld great focks of turkeys
and 1t soon became known that they were
favorite food among the Indians. After while
turkeys were proudly sent home as trophies of
the chase. In this way the turkey became prac-
tically a world favorite a food
When Cortes. in 1919, assembled to the plateau
of Mexico, he found social life developed to a

to be found within the empire were set before

BAKED BEANS AS THEY WERE
AND ARE

It may he the impression of some
people that baked beans grow in a
can, but this is not so. They are still
to be found on farm tables, for there
is nothing that stays by a hard-work
ing man better than beans; in lumber
camps they have them twenty-one
times week. But possibly the stage
farmer would not recognize them,
for they do not always come in
beanpot any more.
The beanpot is an inheritance from
our far-away, perhaps prehistoric an
cestors; it is the heavy, brown crock
cry glazed only on the inside, that
was made by potters in Europe be-
fore the days of Rome. 1t is not
necessary, however, to the tastiness of
baked beans and it is horrible thing
to wash-heavy, clumsy. with a CRIME
that sticks, and does not show. In
many up-to- date farmhouses beans
are now baked in an ordinary enam-
eled ware pan holding anywhere from
two quarts up to the capacity of the
I family. The pan should. of course,
be deep in proportion to its width
All that is necessary is to parboil the
beans rather longer than was nee
essary when they were cooked all day
in the earthen pot, and then bake
them slowly, covered, until they are
nearly done, after which they are

Wants Restrictions
on Foreign Students

Correspondence of Associated Press)
Cologne-With the complete figures
of the number of students from neu-
trail foreign states who visited Ger
man universities during the last Sc
mester, now at hand, the Koelnische
Zeitung, foreseeing a tremendous in
fluX when peace shall have come, de-
cides that some restriction should be
placed on foreigners in the interests
of German students.
Shortly before the war there was
such a large number of Russians at
the University of Halle that the
would-be German students could find
no place for themselves. Such a thing
must never happen again, the Koel-
nusche declares, in arguing against un-
restricted admission to the German in
stitutions of learning. 1t also cites the
case of the Russian student at the
University of Berlin, suspected of
espionage at the outbreak of the war,
who openly shouted words of con-
tempt of all things German. This
should teach a lesson for the future,
the paper declares.
Notwithstanding the war, the Uni
versity of Berlin had, during the Sc
mester, no less than 1,43S students
from foreign countries, including Aus
tria. The majority were Swiss, Rou-
manian, Bulgarian, Greek and Tur-
kish. Only a few Americans were
left, principally, the Koelnische sug-
gests, because they believed that the
American papers said about starved
out Germany"

AMERICAN SHOES IN CUBA

Although about so per cent. of the
shoes used in Santiago de Cuba and
throughout this consular district is of
American manufacture, the demand.
on account of their superior quality
and style in comparison with those of
Spanish. Austrian, or Frenc>I make,
is constantly increasing.
During the fiscal year ending June
80. 1914, there were imported into
Cuba 4,01O,116 pairs of shoes, the
valuation of which was $4,249,6S1. OF
this quantity 3.259,69O pairs came
valued at S3,39S.940.
The rate of duty on shoes from
countries other than the United States
is 13 per cent. ad Valorem, and in
addition, per pair. 1875 cents for men s
shoes,13 cents for women's shoes, and
65 cents for children's shoes; i'm
ports from the United States are en-
titled to a reduction of 80 per cent.
of the duty. which would make the
rate 81 per cent. ad valorem plus
1856 cents, 9.1 cents, and 4.55 cents
per pair, respectively.
The older inhabitants still cling to
the old Spanish style, but the younger
people in particular prefer the Amer
lean styles.
The demand is for both high and
low tan, patent leather, kid and white
shoes The high shoe is used more
extensively throughout the sugar dis
tricts, and the low shoes are popular
| in the cities. There is practically no
demand for rubber overshoes.
There are three shoe factories on
the island, in which only styles for
Cuba are made. and these exclusively
for women and children. In these
| factories Goodyear welting machinery
/ is not used. All of the sole leather
used in Cuba is of domestic manu-
facture, but all of the uppers are i'm
ported, principally from the United
States. There are several wholesale
and retail shoe stores in Santiago. The
retail stores are attractive and COM
pare favorably with similar stores in
the United States. No one-price sys-
tenn is employed, however, and the
prices of shoes vary solely according
| to appearance.

A UNIQUE BIBLE CHARACTER

One of the few men in the Bible
who have nothing recorded against
them is Joseph of Arimathea. Every
one of the evangelists has good word
tc say for Joseph. One says he was
an honorable counselor" another that
he was just man." another that he
was "a rich man." another that he was
secret disciple" Only two of the
Hevangelists speak of the birth of
Christ: but all four of them erect a
monument to Joseph of Arimathea.
When he became a disciple we are not
told. DR.. Andrew Bonar, of Scotland
says he can just imagine that Nico-
demus may have been moved by 10
seph of Arimathea to believe in Christ.
At all events. Nicodemus didn't come
out very boldly himself; he didn't get
his discipleship out very clear. They
were both members of the Sanhedrin.
but II is evident that none knew that
Joseph was a secret disciple until a
certain night.-The Christian Herald.

Comets Predicted War,
Belief of Superstitions

Correspondence of Associated Press)
Berlin-In the light of the ancient
superstition that comets. particularly
disaster and war, astronomers have
recently been calculating the number
that have made their appearance from
late in 1913 until the present time.
They have been unusually frequent,
apparently, from which fact the su-
perstitious are taking comfort.
The real war comet" says the as
tronomers, was that of Delevan, dis
covered by him in December, 1913.
This body was of unusual size and
brilliancy, and at its zenith could be
made out with the naked eye. 1t dis
appeared early this year. and prob
ably will not be seen again for six or
seven years. The astronomers cau-
ton against taking this as an indica-
ton that the war will last that long.
One of the first to be seen in 1913
was "Enck's comet" which first was
noted in 1885, but not definitely
placed until 1918. 1t makes it's ap-
pearance once every three and a third
years, but in 1914 was late. Close on
the heels Of this expected guest"
came some that were not expected,
however.
On May 16, 1914, Rudolph Paetz
reports, Zlatinsky discovered a comet
like star, possessing the brilliancy of
star of 1875 magnitude. 1t was given
the name of Neupmin. Then came
the Knitting comet, of comparatively
little brilliancy, and then Campbell's
comet was announced from America.
The first comet of 1915 was that of
Mellish, also discovered in America,
which first appeared as a star of 10
magnitude and attained its maximum
in June with magnitude of fourth
class
