HOUSETOPS ARE UTILIZED
are Devoted to Many Purposes,
Including Quarters for Stock.

House tops play a very important
part In village life in Palestine, writes
Rev. C. I. Wilson in pheasant Life in
the Holy Land" In the hilly districts
the one-storied rooms are often built
back to the side of the knoll, or hill,
on which the village stands; or where
1t is in valley, a perpendicular rock
surface will occasionally be utilized
as one of the walls, and the roof will
thus be on a level with the street
above. Where such village is depen-
dent on the rain for its water supply,
the roof will be made flush with the
roadway, In order to get greater area
from which TO collect the water for
the cistern below. When this is done,
1t is often impossible to tell from
above where the street ends and the
roof begins.
The roofs, although really domed
are not unfrequently afterward leveled
up so as to make them quite fiat, or
sloping slightly to one corner to throw
off the rain more easily. They are
put to an infinite variety of uses; thus,
In village built on the side of a par
ticularly steep valley, where it was al
most impossible to find a flat space,
have seen houSetop used as a thresh-
ing floor. Where the house is not built
against the hillside, faggots of brush
wood, used by the women for tirewoOd,
are often piled up on the roof for
safety. During the dry season l have
seen goats and sheep folded there at
night, and in the hot, sultry nights of
summer the whole family will fire.
Quently sleep on the housetop. In the
case of number of rooms built on to
each other for n family of sons, the
roofs will join, though sometimes at
different levels. In some cases these
roofs are reached from the streets by
an outside staircase.

and smilingly recalled this little story !:
Uncle Josh was ON his way to town
one afternoon, and CHANGING to see mis-
friend Abner working in nm adjacent
field, he paused for small chat over
the barbed wire fence. Incidentally
inquiry was made after Abner's eldest
son, HeZekiah.
'IHezekiah is in the city now an

pride. "Been there most a year"

Josh. "What ! was wonderin' was

Uncle Josh, "is Hezekiah buyin' gold

MISS DID HER SWEET BEST
Wagon But Failed in Effort to
Induce Team to Bulge.

Irish profanity is not green. Ere
quently it is blue. 1t was recently-on
State street, above Main, muses. the
Springfield Republican. This cloud of
sulphurous rhetoric rose from the driv-
er's seat of an overloaded coal wagon.
Three hOrses-posSibly they belonged
TO the union-went on strike. And the
Irish driver, armed with a whip, tried
to break the strike. And the horses
tapped their ears, swished their tails
and twisted their necks to blink at
MIN. A wisp of thin, blue smoke
spouted from his clay pipe to mingle
with the fires of his wrath. The lash
of his whip smacked the brass-studded
harness, and a crowd on the sidewalk
howled:
"Mush va bogger, mush :" yelled a
voice.
"Veer out the tiller lines and nail
'em on the bottom" laughed a sec
ond.
And still the horses blinked, Michael
rose to new heights of novelty, and the
coal cart sagged.
A young girl tripped down the street
in a loud coat shouldered through the
crowd and stared with a gasp of hor-
ror pursuing her delicate lips. Then
her eyes narrowed, and she stepped
out into the gutter.
You stop beating those horses she
shrllled, cor I'll have you arrested ~
Michael glowered at her, and smiled
"Sure, and maybe you kin get thin go
in" he suggested.
"Of course | can" she tossed her
head, and climbed up on the grimy
load of coal.
She grasped the ponderous reins in
her tiny hands. stiffened her back and
scorned the whip with an acid smile.
Come, darlngs," she cooed. ''be nice
and pull this little load right up the
hill" The sidewalk audience hooted.
She did her sweet best. And the off
horse stretched an elastic neck to see
what manner Of malady the gods had
inflicted upon him now. The middle
horse tapped his ears again; the nigh
horse switched his tail. Then all three
sighed with resignation and - didn't
bulge. Finally a motor truck came
along and yanked the cart to the top.
