WATER PORTERs OF QUITO.
The Funny Way They Have In Deliver.
ina Their liquid Load.

About fountain in one OF the pr1n-
cipal squares Of Quito, the capital OF
Ecuador, assemble every morning the
city's aguadores These water porters
differ from the less energetic ones Of
some South American cities in carry
ing their jars upon their backs instead
of on the backs of mules. Their earth
Ell jars are deep, have wide mouth
and hold about forty pints.
The porter carries it on his shoulder
fastened with leather straps. He never
detaches himself from his jar either to
fill it or to transfer its contents to
that of his customer.
He turns his back to the fountain SO
that the jar comes under one Of the
Jets of water and listens to the sound
of the water in the jar, and his ear is
so we'll trained that he always walks
away at the e-.Lct moment when 1t is
filled to the brim.
Arriving at the house of customer,
he goes TO the household jar, makes d
deep bow and disappears behind tor
rent of water. Foreigners can never
receive without laughing the visit of
their aguadOr, the respectful little man
who bows to one behind the cataract
OF water-Los Angeles Times.

OLDEST MAP IN THE WORLD.
I, Proves That Postal Routes Were
Used In Abraham's Time.

Postal routes Of $500 years ago.
when the parcel post and the circulat-
ing library already had been in ex-
iStence at least 800 years, are shown
OH the worlds oldest map, treasure
that was discovered among the Nippur
tablets in the museum Of the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania by Dr. Stephen
Langdon. the OrientaliSt from Oxford
university. DR.. LangdOn considered
the map not only the oldest, but the
best preserved that has come 1Uwn
from antiquity.
Dating before the time of Abraham,
the map shows a comprehensive sur
vey of the region about the temple Of
Nippur and indicates that the country
was under high state of intensive
cultivation Canals were numerous and
served both for irrigation and trans
portation They were the mail routes,
and a tag has been found for basket
of "books" or literary tablets sent from
the library of the Nippur temple to
town about six miles distant, Shurup-
pek. According to Babylonian trad1-
ton, Noah lived at this town and built
the ark there The tag was used about
1900 B. c.

OF musicians.
1t is the desire of the Navy De
partment to recruit the bands OF all
the fighting ships to their full siren
9Th. and a special appeal is being
made to young musicians all over
the country.
The pay is good-better than that

life-and the surroundings of
bandman aboard ship are pleasant
and agreeable The advancement
leads 10 bandmaster.
Young men with merely primi-
tive knowledge of music can enlist IN
the Navy at this time and be sent 10
the Musicians School, from which
they are transferred to ship; thus
receiving complete education IN
band music.
Once aboard man-o'-war, the
young musician Is afforded not only
chance to serve his country at
critical time. but is enabled TO travel
extensively while in the pursuit OF
his vocation.
While the Navy recruiting authorl
ties at Baltimore have not been ask
ed TO enlist a definite quota of musl-
clans, they are anxious TO see Mary
land maintain her loyal record in the
call for this branch of the service.
Minors desiring 10 enlist in the
Navy in any capacity must present
the written consent of their parents
or legal guardian. Forms for TINS
purpose can be obtained from the
postmaSterS of the state.

What Will You Say?

In day or two days or three days people will be-
gin to ask you Have you subscribed to the Liberty
Loan yet2"
And any real American with the stuff in him that
is American stuff will and can say, You betcha!
Yes sir You betcha!''
This is an enormous War Loan issue. Two bill
lions $2 900, 900, 900, is needed now-immediately.
The banks have subscribed literally. But the peo-
pie must take the bulk of this loan. The bank's
money must be used, as always, to support mer-
chants, factories, farmers, so that crops can be-
raised food stufs prepared for market, and all bus
mess go on as usual.

What kind of stuff is there in you, brother9 We
want you to go in NOW. The nation needs your
help-very badly. We don't believe you would
knowingly be a Stacker. You'll do your bit If you
know about it. And you know about it now, and

is when the enemy brings up thousands of
pieces OF artillery, great cannon firing shells as
large as mans body, one of which exploding
among five hundred men could kill them all--other
smaller guns firing shrapnel, with millions of
bullets scarcely less Observation-Disclosures of
thousands Of shells, all exploding along certain
line, until there is real wall of explosion, wall
oi death to be passed.
And our boys are going in--in where they use
curtains of fire as you use matches--8ons in with

Brother, you don't want to

But there is something you CAN do, and MUST
do, something that everyone of US MUST do. and
that is subscribe to the Liberty Loan The nation
must have 50, 900, ,OOO, 900, NOW. There are bonds
of $50, $780, $500, and upwards. They pay 1-2
per cent and the safest Investment that has ever
been known. They are first mortgage on the
wealth of the United States now the greatest wealth
of the world Its like buying ten dollar mortgage
on million dollar bank building.
1t is only common sense to put your money in
them-but you must WAKE up to it. The Liberty
Loan MUST be subscribed by June 18th. Your sub
scription is NEEDED NOW.
When our boys abroad are called on to go through
a curtain of fire. there will be no hanging back
they'll go IN-in spite of every ones knowing that
only some of them will 90 THROUGH alive. And
they'll laugh, and sing ''There'Il be hot Time in
the Old Town Tonight" just as they did at Santiago,
because that's the kind of stuff that's in them,
