HUMAN FACE ON CRABS BACK
Queer Legend Is Attached to an Oddi.
ty Of Nature Which Is Found in
Japanese Waters.

A crab with human face is one of
the oddities to be found in japanese
waters. Not only that, but the face is
surprisingly like that of a japanese
warrior in the "old, unhappy, far-off
days Of the past" This face is formed
by the strange figuration of the crabs
back. To see one of the creatures
crawling on the sand Is to see what
apparently is a human face moving
across the beach.
According to japanese history. the
nation was beset by plague of piracy
few centuries ago, says the New
York World. The coasts were ravaged.
vessels sunk and terror spread gener-
ally by marauding sea rovers. Then
the people organized a feet and set
out to exterminate the pirates. A
great battle followed in which all Of
the freebOOters were slain.
At this point legend steps in. 1t Is
said that not long after the battle the
first of the crabs appeared. With ad-
vancing years the crabs increased In
numbers until they are quite common.
And not only do they bear the face of
fierce old warrior. but it is strangely
like that Of dead man who had been
drowned. The superstitious among the
natives say that the souls Of the pi-
rates entered into the forms Of the
crabs.

How q Bullet Drops.

In what position does a rifle bullet
return to earth? In order to solve the
problem a special stand was erected
in Germany recently, and experiments
were carried on along the shores Of a
lake the surface Of which was frozen,
says the Popular Science Monthly. The
ice was covered with strong planks.
1t was shown that an infantry rifle
bullet shot upward in a vertical direc-
ton passes downward In the same pO-
sition in. which it passed upward-in
other words, 1t came back again to
earth with its bottom first.
Why was it not upset at its culmi-
nation point? The answer is that the
propelling force ceases to act at the
elimination point. But the twist has
as yet not stopped, and therefore it
starts its fall with twist. Even on
impact the twist has not stopped, as
was indicated by the warping Of the
wood fibers in the planking on the ice.

On the Casualty List.

A gallant infantry officer who had
faced a hundred perils and returned
home from furlOugh without scratch
met with misfortune the first night
home, says London Tit-Bits. In the
black darkness of a side street he col
lided with a pOrter's barrow and sus-
tanned broken arm. The limb healed
nicely, but so long as 1t reposed in u
sling the owner was pestered with kind
inquiries from admiring friends who
were blissfully unaware Of the real
cause Of the>injury. The limit was
reached one day when he encountered
a former business rival, who at once
alluded to the now hateful subject:
by Jove, old fellow, / envy you
with that eloquent testimony Of your
prowess. In what action did you
come by it,"
"Hang 1t, SIR" was the testy reply,
"can't you read the blessed war news
for yourself"

RAVAGES OF PESTS
Wireworms Work Underground

Control.
ENEMIEsOFCOUN ADDICTION
Much May Be Done to Lessen Injury

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Although wirewOrms work entirely
underground. ;sid are, therefore. among
the most difficult TO control of all the
insect foes of corn and cotton, much
may be done, to lessen their ravages
by careful tillage, drainage, and proper
rotation of crops. These pests are the
young of the common snapping-beeties
or click-beetles. They are yellOwish or
brOwnish. highly polished and slippery
to the touch. and move actively and
disappear rapidly when brought to the
surface by the pillow or spade. The
eggs are laid in the ground, usually
I'm the sod lands. and there the young
worms are Matched. Three years are
required for most kinds of wirewOrms
to get their full growth and become
beetles.
Where sod land is to be planted to
corn the following year. the land

wheat is not followed by seeding to
other crops, the fields should be plOwed
as soon as the wheat is harvested.
Flowing kills the worms by destroying
their food supply and preventing them
from preparing suitable quarters for
the winter.
Some kinds of wireworms live only
in land that is poorly drained and for
this reason tile draining of land is
beneficial. especially where the gen
eral condition of the field is further
improved by applications Of lime and
by thorough cultivation.

GIRLS! MAKE A
BEAUTY LOTION
WITH LEMONS

At the cost Of small jar Of ordinary
cold cream one can prepare full quar-
ter pint of the most wonderful lemon
skin softener and complexion beautifier,
by squeezing the juice of two fresh
lemons into a bottle containing three
ounces of orchard white. Care should
be taken to strain the juice through q
fine cloth so no lemon pulp gets in,
then this lotion will keep fresh for
months. Every woman knows that lem
on Juice is used to bleach and remove
such blemishes as freckles, sallOwness
and tan and is the ideal skin softener,
smoothener and beautifier.
Just try it! Set three ounces Of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up quarter pint Of this sweetly frag-
rant lemon lotion and massage it daily
into the face, neck, arms and hands. It
should naturally help to whiten, soften,
freshen and bring out the roses and

MONEY LENDER PITIED POOR
Chinese ShyIock In Manchuria Gave
Annual Sum for Relief Work to
Relieve His Conscience.

A wealthy Chinese money lender in
Manchuria was recently convicted of
making false declaration regarding
robberies Of his caravans by Monaghan
bandits. His conscience troubled him
to such an extent that he offered to
contribute an annual sum Of $3.50 for
the relief of the poor, East and West
says. This money was made the basis
Of fund for feeding the helpless at
Kungchuling.
Manchuria is terribly poor. despite
the mineral and agricultural riches ex-
tracted from it's soil and rocks, all Of
which products are shipped abroad.
There are probably thousands Of indus
trious natives unable, by unremitting
toll, to earn more than a meager liv-
ing. When to their natural difficulties
are added the ravages Of bandits and
the evils of disagreement, such as
now prevails in many parts Of China,
abject proverty and starvation must be
the lot Of the people who. in the best
Of times, are only half fed.

There has never been a time when
the sires to which mares are to be

last five years have seen gradually
increasing difference between the price
of good and of inferior horses. Dur
ing the last year those horses and
mules which were good enough to do
some job well have found ready sale.
while others have been a drug on the
market, and have lost money for the
men who produced them. A good use
full draft horse, or useful horse from
among the lighter breeds. or a useful
mule, meets a ready demand, but the
culls and inferior horses and mules do
not.

IN "PRUNE STREET PRISON"
Some WeII-Known Men Were Confined
in Philadelphia Jail When lmpris-
onment for Debt Prevailed.

The terms "Prune street prison" may
be more readily understood by q read
er if he shall simply bear in mind
that Prune street was once the name
of what is now Locust street from
Fourth to Sixth, the change having
been made about. probably, forty years
ago, says the Philadelphia Evening
Bulletin.
As to the prison, 1t existed on the
north side of Prune street and ended
below Sixth and was in the nature of
an extension of the Walnut street pris-
on at the southeast corner Of Sixth and
Walnut streets. At time when i'm
prisonment for debt was punishment
under the law Of Pennsylvania, the
Prune street prison was used chiefly
for that purpose. In the latter part
Of the eighteenth century and the ear
ly part of the nineteenth, 1t sometimes
contained many well known as well rs
humble men who were unable to meet
the demands Of their creditors. Rob
ert Morris was one of the prisoners
for several years. During the prOlorg-
ed period Of his dispensation in trying
to stave off the swarms of impOrtunate
men to whom he owed money, he would
sometimes speak or write Of "Prune
street" as if the jail doomed up before
him like thing of dread. While Nor
ris was there. William B. Wood. the
eminent actor, whose long life was af-
terward associated with the first and
the second Chestnut street theater,
was one Of his companions in misery.
