ARMENIANs AN ANCIENT RACE
They Lived In Many Places Before O.
cupyine Regions Which They Have
Held for Many Centuries.

The history of Armenia dates from
very remote times. J. de Morgan writes
In the New Armenia. HaiIing, no one
knows whence, at the same time as
the races who have populated Europe,
the Armenians formerly inhabited the
steppes Of Russia and the plains Of
the lower Danube, and for long time
Thrqce. where they lived side by side
with the Hellenes, their congeners.
Afterward. at about the time Of the
Trojan war we see them cross the
HellespOnt. and settle In Phrygia, with
the Phrygians Of whom they were then
hut great tribe. At this epoch the
empire of Utilities was extingulshed.
II Is from Phrygia that, contrary to the
general law Of migratiOns, the Armeni-
ans advanced toward the Orient, along
the high valley of tie Euphrates, and
came to occupy the regions of Van,
Urmia, Erzerum and Ararat. The
kingdom Of Uratu disappeared; the
Armenlans installed themselves upon
its ruins
II was then that appeared the grand
figure Of Halk, fabulous parsonage
In the traditions, but assuredly real,
whom Moses Of Khorene described to
us, contendlng, In his heroic form,
against Bel, that is, against the kings
of Assyria. The Armenia Major Of
our days was then occupied by peoples
related to the present Caucasians, to
the Lazes, Mingrelians and Georgians,
whom the kings of Asshur, after the
fall Of the powerful state of the bor-
ders Of Lake Van. hoped to subJugate.
But Nineveh was soon to fall, and
through this revolution the Armenians
gained the time to establish their pow
er firmly In the regions they con-
quered under the leadership of Haik.
The first kingdom of the Armenians,
Hal, was founded 600 or 700 years be-
fore our era. and the spirit of Haik
has lived until our own day, welding
the Armenian element that was sep
arated from the Phrygian nation.
Some centuries after the collapse Of
Ninevch The Modes were dispOssessed
Of power. The scepter passed to the
hands of the Persians, whose onrush
forced the ancient rulers of Iran to
retire to the mountains. Then these
tribes came In contact with the Ar
menians, who, repulsed from the east,
transmitted this pressure to the peo-
pies of Ararat

Substitute for Conner

The use of soft steel and iron as
partial substitute for copper in the
manufacture Of decorative metals Is
being experimental with in the depart
ment of manual arts at the University
OF Wisconsin.
For years it has been traditional for
decorative metal products to be made
wholly or in large part of copper, brass
or some other alloy of copper. The
price of copper is now so high more
than so cents pound that substi-
tute is needed in decorative metal.
The kind of steel and iron required
in this kind of work costs at present
II cents q pound. In many respects
this steel is as good, if not better, than
copper. 1t works easily, wears as
well, is not diScoiOred or OxidiZed as
quickly, and for many uses is even
stronger than copper. 1t lacks the
red-gold luster, but can be given a
silver-hued FURNISH, or can be decorat-
ed with paints.-University of Wiscon-
sin Bulletin.

BREAD AS ECONOMICAL FOOD
Would Be Used More Extensively If
Home-6aked Variety Was Always
Good, Say Government Experts.

If hOme-baked bread were uniformly
well made, 1t would be used more ex-
tensively than at present in place Of
more expensive foods, say specialists
In the United States department OF
agriculture, and this would be a dis
Slnct economy. From the standpoint
of nutrition it makes very little differ
enCe whether breadstuffs are served in
the form of bread or in the form of
breakfast cereals, side dishes with
meat, or desserts.
4 man engaged in moderate muscu-
lar work can profitably consume about
three-fourths of a pound a day of
breastuffs In any one Of these forms.
