FREAKS OF FASHION,
How q Fad For Wearing Ribbons In
the Hair Was Started.

How Fad For Wearing Ribbons Ia
the Hair Was Started.
Dress experts keep changing the fash
ions, as it were, in self defense. At one
time deliberately worked and hand en-
broidered blouses were hevogue. Then
machines were so perfected that ma
chine embroidered blouses outrivaled
the hand work, and fashion experts re-
taliated by designing blouses as plain
as possible. NJ y:
The fashion for uncurled feathers
was the result of wet day. Curled
ostrich feathers were on every That.
when at some fashionable function the
rain descended in torrents and every
feather was soon absolutely straight.
Milliners, always alert for an idea,
We're struck with the appearance Of
these feathers, and uncurled ostrich
pfumes became the demand. III
The fashion for wearing ribbons I'm
termingled with curls piled on the top
Of the head originated in the reign Of
Louis XIV. Of France. A certain Mile
Fontage was out hunting with the
king and court when a branch Of u
tree caught her hair and pulled it
down. With quick resourcefulness she
leaned down, pulled of her.ribbon gar
ter and twisted up her hair with it.
The king, noticing the pretty effect,
complimented her on her charming
couture, and from that moment the
"f0ntage," as It was termed, became
the rage.-Philadelphia Ledger. r.

Curious Musical Product Of Psru's An.
cient Potteries.
The potters of ancient Peru used to
manufacture an ingenious musicaf in
strument which may very properly be
called whistlfhg jug. In collections
Of antiquities it is called salvador or
silvfo. Specimens are obtained from
the ancient burial places Of Peru.
One Of these consists of two vases
whose bodies are Joined one to the
other, with hole or opening between
them. The neck of one OF these vases
is closed, with the exception Of a small
opening. in which n clay pipe is insert
ed leading to the body OF the whistle.
The closed neck Of this double vase is
modelled into a representation Of q
birds head. .
When liquid is poured into the open
necked vase the air is compressed In
the other, and in escaping through the
narrow opening is forced into the whis
tie, the vibration producing the sounds.
Many of these sounds represent the
notes Of birds; one In the collection ut
the British museum initiates the notes
Of the robin or, some other member Of
the thrush tribe peculiar in Peru

PICKING A LOBSTER.
Always Select One That Kicks ON
Struggles Vigorously. ~

Always ssIsct One That Kicks snd
Struggles Vigorously.
When you go to pick out a lobster for
cooking select one that kicks. Such is
the advice Mrs. Mary c. Pickett gives
in the National Food Magazine, the
editor Of which calls her the lobster
queen" and says she is the best known
lobster broker in the United States.
Mrs. Pickett quotes the ancient He
brew law against eating anything that
has died OF. itself, and says that the
moment lobster is taken out Of salt
water 1t begins to die and its flesh to
deteriorate. So the excellence Of a
lobster depends in large measure on
the length Of time that elapses between
his being taken from the water and
his being served at table. When a lob
ster moves his claws feebly he is near
~ dead and, though not unfit to eat. his
flesh will not be firm and tasty.
! Keepers Of first class restaurants
have experts to select their Holsters.
These pick them over as soon as re-
ceived, sending some to be boiled at
once and reserving others for broiling.
The finest Holsters come from the
coolest waters, and Mrs. Pickett says
those caught south of Cape Cod do not
amount to much, their flesh being not
nearly so firm as those from Maine
waters. 90. y
The only way to tell If a lobster is
In really good condition is by its liveh-
ness. If 1t struggles vigorously, fops
its tail and makes wide open init Its
claws" it is all right; If it is lethargic,
opens its claws wearily and shows no
sign of fight, 1t IL dying and should be
let alone, for it is not cheap at any
price.
1.-THE lobster" writes Mrs. Pickett,
Should be boiled in the morning for
use at dinner and kept In q very cold
place, but not in direct contact with
the ice, and. 1t is better not to remove
the meat from the shell until just be-
fore preparing It in any desired way"

Rice In Ecuador.

Rice is the principal article Of diet of
all Ecuadorians, rich and poor. The
country produces excellent rice In lin
tied quantities and imports largely.
The crop is harvested In May by strip
ping the grains with the hands, the
average yield being twenty bushels per
acre. The rice growing lands are rent.
ed to small farmers, who sell the har-
vested crops to town merchants. The
latter In turn send the grain to the
rice mill, exchanging 100 pounds Of
the unhulled rice, II Of good quality,
for 100 pounds Of the hulled product. If
Of inferior grade larger toll is taken.
This includes storage for six months.
Some OF the very small growers hull
their rice with fail and winnow 1t
with the wind. The husks are thrown
away, but the remaining waste is fed
to the horses.-Exchange. lkg

Wisdom Teeth.

The wisdom teeth are the two last
molar teeth to grow. They come one
on each side of the jaw and arrive
somewhere between the ages of twenty
and twenty-five years. The name is
given them because it is supposed that
when person has developed physical
~ and mentally to the point where he
has secured these last two teeth he has
also arrived at the age Of discretion.
1t does not necessarily mean that one
who has cut his wisdom teeth Is wise,
but that, having lived long enough to
grow these. which complete the full
set Of teeth, the person has passed suf-
ficient actual years that If he has done
what he should to fit himself for life
he should have come by that time at
the age Of discretion or wisdom. As q
matter of fact. these teeth grow at
about the same time in people whether
they are wise or not.

During the latter half Of the eleventh
century pilgrims to Jerusalem began to
be prosecuted by the Turks Or Sara
Gems then in possession Of the Holy
Land. Nine noble knights formed a
brotherhood with the object OF protect
ing the pilgrims. The cause spread
rapidly over Europe, and the knights
grew to legions IN number. Vows Of
chastity, Obedience and poverty We're
talSen.f and the order, from merely pro-
tecting the pilgrims, took upon itself
the task OF recovering the Holy Land
from the grip of the infidels. About
1920 they were given place in the in.

MANGLING A WORD.
Why "Comptrollsr" Is Used Instead Of
tho Correct "Controller." =

the Correct CONTROLLER"
It is an Old story, many times told.
that the scriveners centuries ago. igno-
rant Of Latin, but having heard that in
French "compter" means to count and
assuming that as the controller has to
do with money he must of course,
count money, wedged the false and
perverting letter "p' with All I'm" be-
fore it into perfectly good and cor
rectly formed word.
In late Latin the word is "contraro-
tulator." The keeper Of the kings rolls.
the payroll and other accounts, was the
''rotulator" 10 guard against the pos
sible dishonesty Of that official the
king appointed an auditor to check up
his accounts and called him the "con-
rarotufator'-that is, the counter roll
keeper. From "contrarotulator" the
word has come into modern languages.
always without the offending "p."
In French, Spanish, Italian. German
and Russian we have the, word ICON
troll" meaning the keeping or auditing
Of accounts, and the title of the officer
in those languages is spelled always
without the "m" and the ''p." When
our commissioners to the Paris peace
conference in 1898 used the word "con-
troll" meaning political control Of the
Philippines, the Spanish commissioners
were puzzled: they thought our repre-
sentatives were speaking Of matters Of
finance. taz0 55I "'' f'.' f~N"
But the word comptroller" with its
vicious spelling and implication of a
false etymology, Is imbedded in the
federal statutes and in the constitution
Of the state Of New York. All the
kings oxen could not pun it out against
the BoeOtian Indifference and Inertia Of
those who. II they would. might cor
rect the blunder.-New York Times.
