NAMES HIS PET AVERSIONS
Physician Pretty Well Covers Every
thing in Making the Following
Fervent Prayer.

Doctors, it appears, do sometimes re-
sort to prayer, according to the Medi-
cal Times. But, since such cOmmunica-
tons are usually strictly confidential
in character they are seldom recorded
(here below, at least,) although they
undoubtedly express the innermost
warnings of the supplicant's soul. A
certain Doctor Jacobson has recently,
and openly, prayed to be delivered
from the following things:
Health insurance; from deadbeats i;
from the neurasthenic who keeps a
diary; from the birth-cOntrOl crank
and other professional sociologists !;
from the writer's of unneeded text
books; from drug fiends; from the
young married woman who is not
strong enough to bear a child; from
obese pigs who won't diet as direct
ed; and from night calls. Also, from
fool legislation; from food cranks who
tell us how to live for ten days on
S1.10; from socialistic health boards );
from half-baked specialists; from New
Thoughtists; from seekers after false
certificates of illness; from mOribund
journals, third-rate journals, and freak
sex journals.

Till the Plumber Comes.

If often becomes necessary to stop q
leak in water pipe when plumbers
services cannot Immediately be OBJ
tanned. Pipes have habit of spring
ing a leak at the most incOnvenient
times. To persons who may find
themselves in this predicament sug-
gestion sent to Popular Mechanics by
j. w. Cox of Florence, Ala, should
prove valuable:
A piece of sheet rubber was placed
over the leak and a wooden block was
fitted over it, the inner surface being
curved to fit the pipe. The block and
rubber packing were clamped against
the pipe by means of a stick, notched
to fit against the pipe and held by a
twisted wire, q block being used to
wedge the packing and cover block
firmly into place. The repair was wa
tertight and saved much inconvenience
and probably considerable damage.

BRITAIN BIDS LOW

Those free-traders who do not be-

to fear from foreign competition af-

fact that although Great Britain is
herself one of the heaviest buyers
of munitions, yet a British concern
outbid American companies in pro-
posals for furnishing projectiles for
the United States navy. All sorts
Of explanations may be offered, but
the fact Is that cheaper labor in
Great Britain gives the factory in
that country an advantage in the
low cost of production, and in case
Of large projectiles which are not
now in use because the British navy
Is inactive, the British manufacturer
is free to bid for American business.

FIRST TO BUILD GOOD ROADS
McAdam, by His Invention and Work,
Did Much to Advance the Pros
perity of England.

The inventor of macadamized roads
was John Loudon McAdam and few
Inventors ever gave their name more
currency than he did by his good roads
invention. He was born in Scotland in
1856 and came pretty near becoming
an American, for he came to New
York in ITO and remained there in
the employ of an uncle Is years. Re
turning to England in 1888 he took up
the study of rOad.making and from
that time on it was his life work. He
was the father of good roads in Eng
land. Macaulay, in his history of
England, has chapter on the bad
roads of that period in which he says,
ION the best lines of communication
the ruts were deep, the descents were
precipitOus and the way often such as
It was hardly possible to distinguish.
it happened. almost every day, that
coaches stuck fast, until a team of cat
tie could be procured from some neigh
boring farm to tug them out of the
slough" McAdam's views in regard
to road-making, especially in regard to
the use of broken stone, were finally
adopted by the authorities and in 1927
he was appointed surveyor general of
roads in Great Britain. Parliament
voted him $4,000 for his services and
offered him knighthOOd and a title, but
he declined them. He died in 1886 in
his eighty-frst year. A biographer
says: 'McAdam's efforts largely con-
tributed to produce that network of
mail coach communication in England
which, for some years before railways
were introduced, greatly advanced the
nations prosperity and prepared tha
way for the railway system" His sys-
tenn was adopted in the construction of
the old national road in this country.

Two Freaks Of Nature.

Two contrasting freaks of nature
are the Island of Fire and the Lake
of Snow. The Island of Fire is called
the Home OF Hot Devils. 1t is sit
uated in the midst of large lake OF
boiling mud in the island Of Java.
The steam and gases Which arise
from the sticky mud form them
selves into bubbles, attaining a diam
eter of five or six feet, and sail high
up in the air like balloons, carried
hther and thither by the wind and
finally exploding with loud crash.
The biggest snow lake is seen from
the summit OF Hispar pass, in the
Karakoram range. 1t is more than
300 square miles in area. In SWitzer-
land the sea of ice might better be
called the sea of snow, as the sur
face is broken up by solar heat,
which makes a minute assuring in
the ice, giving it the appearance OF
snow.

When 1 am old and bent and worn.
with hair all gray and pants all torn,
and town has grown too swift for me,
and in my backs a miseree, I'll take
my bundle meath my arm and go and
settle on farm, and in the spring
and in the mud each square foot I
will plant spud, then with a nice
self-starting hoe I'll coax the lowly
spud to grow, as spuds were never
coaxed before, and they shall twine
about my door, and shall drink up
the morning dew, and shade the wind
ing avenue that sort of turns and
twists and crawls to get to my an
cestral halls.
And paris green by pecks I'll lug
to put on each pertater bug. I'll keep
the weeds out of the rows, and when
hot wind comes and blows I'll
sprinkle each one from a can and sit
beside it with fan until the danger
has gone by; will not let it wilt and
die.
And when dead leaves are earth

threatens frost I'll get cute little
union suits to put upon the spuddish
beauts. / shall know each last spud
by name and pet each one and make
1t tame; so that when autumn comes
apace I'll go and open up my face
beside the bars and call each spud by
name, and it shall leave the mud, and
leave the vine, and leave the tree,
when my call comes, and follow me.
And I shall hike away to town and
where the roads go winding down the
spuds shall follow me, and go where
hungry men rush to and fro in search
Of spuds, and they shall pay a PUNK
peck for spuds that day, and I shall
get wad of kale as big as any cotton

VioiIance Committee.

The vigilance committee Of colonial
times, an unauthorized, loosely con-
nected body of citizens representing
public opinion, was formed in the IL
American colonies Immediately pre-
ceding the revolution. It's object pri-
marily was to enforce the agreement
not to use British products, but later
the scope was enlarged, investigation
being made as to suspected persons
loyalty to the American cause and
punishment being meted out to Tories.
At first the activities were secret.
The participants in the Boston "tea
party" were vigilance committeeman.
Where this sub rosa movement orig
mated is hard to determine; neorly ev-
cry community had it's vigilance COM
mittee.-Philadelph Ledger.

WOMAN'S DRESS NOT MODERN
Recently Discovered Drawings Prove
That Dame Fashion Has Reigned
for Quite a Lengthy Period.

Rock drawings recently laid bare in
The Spanish peninsula have discovered
to us very interesting period of pre-
historic man. From q lecture recent
ly delivered in London by Sir Arthur
Evans Of the British Archaeological as
ISOLATION it appears that palaeolithic
woman was not only dressed, but most
gracefully. At COgul the drawings in
dicate that the sacred dance was per-
formed by women, clad from the waist
downward in well-cut gowns, whilst
in the rock shelter of Alpera the dress
Of the same skirted ladies is supple
mented by thin flying sashes. In the
paintings at Cueva de la Viege women
are seen with still longer gowns ris-
ing to their bosoms, their shoulders
yelled in scarfs.
Thus we are astonished to find that
fashion has a much longer history
than has been hitherto believed.
These recent discoveries are the
more interesting because hitherto
amongst a wealth Of wonderfully
drawn animals and sign writings the
human figure has been extremely rare
in European discoveries of the kind,
and it is reassuring to know that our
predecessors at a period even as re-
mote as this were not without the
charm and comfort of clothes, and
that woman was then, as now, pi-
Dneer in the great and enthralling arts
Of dress and adOrnment.

Wonnen Of. Ancient Babylon.

To some extent women's rights were
recognized in Babylon. Indeed, in
some respects, they were acknowledged
as mems equals. They entered into
business partnerships, they could lend
and borrow, they could bequeath their
property without let or hindrance. In
the great temples of Babylon, the
priests and priestesses stood On the
same level. The marriage laws of the
Babylonians gave the advantage to the
men. Not only fathers, but also BROTH
erS sold their women into marriage.
Often, though not always, brides were
required to bring their husbands dow
res. But the property she possessed
remained her own. And this was five
and twenty centuries ago.
