THIS PIPE HAS A HISTORY
Was Smoked by Sir Walter Raleigh,
Who First Introduced Use Of
Tobacco Into England.

A pipe with a history is in the pos
session of a collector in London which
was once the property of Sir Walter
Raleigh, and is not unlike the letter
~" in shape. For centuries it has
been kept in an inlaid box dated can
no, 1927" 1t is constructed in four
pieces of wood, rudely carved with
dogs heads and with the faces Of In
dams. On the bowl there is a cap
about as large as the bowl itself, and
attached to the stem is a string Of
beads made Of the anne wood as the
pipe. In this stem a powerful whistle
has been cut, and the suggestion is
made that Sir Walter used it to sum
mon his servants.
The Archaeological society exhibited
this pipe at Guildhall in the middle Of
the last century, the inscription accom-
nanying it bearing these words: "The
original pipe Of the above celebrated
historian of the world, and who first
introduced tobacco and potatoes into
England" Tradition, corroborated by
q parchment in the possession Of the
owner, states that this pipe was
smoked by Sir Walter on the scaffold
just before his execution and handed
to n Of his relatives >as a memento
of him.

DRAMA OF THE MIDDLE AGES
Miracle Plays Were Popular Among
the Great Guilds Of England In
Fifteenth Century.

In England, during the middle ages,
though no theaters were built, some
forms of dramatic entertainment were
extremely popular. and were carried
on with much splendor o. dresses and
other properties. In the fifteenth cen
fury almost every one of the great
guilds or secret fraternities acted
some sort Of miracle play, usually
chosen with reference to the patron
saint Of the guild.
Inventories Of the theatrical proper
ties Of some Of these guilds still e1-
list, and in some cases the list includes
the most gorgeous silk and gold dam
asks and magnificent damascened
armor, altogether worth in modern
money some thousands Of dollars. The
story Of st. George rescuing the prin-
cess from the dragon was a very favor
lite subject, the princess being clad in
the richest dress, adorned with real
jewelry Of high value, and st. George
wearing very costly and elaborate ar
NOR. The dragon was an immense
monster made of leather, large enough
to contain even or eight men, who
worked the various parts Of it's body.

TOO MANY BREAKS FOR Nm.
Frenehman Employed by Real Estate
Dealer Interviews Tenant With
Surprising Results.

A local real estate dealer has Q
Frenchman In his employ whose use.
fulness is hampered only by his inabil.
ity to master the English idiom, says
the Cleveland Plain Dealer. A tenant
recently gave notice that he was un.
able to keep his lease on a house. and
the Frenchman was sent out to find
what. was the matter. The former
made this brief statement, and the lat.
ter took notes on 1t:
"Some time ago scarlet fever broke
out in the neighborhood, and we sent
the children to the home Of their
grandparents. Shortly afterward my
wife's health broke down, and we de-
ctded to break up housekeeping. At
about the same time the house was
broken into by burglars, and our maid
was SO badly frightened that she left.
Ny wife didn't fea like breaking in
a new servant, and we have gone to
boarding. I am sorry to break off re-
lations with this firm, hut things are
breaking so bad with me that I have
to. I'm all broken up about 1t, my.
SELF"
The Frenchman expanded his notes
into the following report:
Scarlet fever broke away in this
tenants neighborhood. Next, his wife's
health broke into. So he decided to
break in housekeeping. The house
was broken down by burglars and the
maid eScaped. The ladv doesn't wan
to break up a new servant. He Is Sol.
~ to break up u relations, but he is
badly broken. He says he is entirely
broken out about it."
After the bad breaks were trans
lated the report was clear.

MOST SPECTACULAR DRIVE OF

The great Hindenburg defense line,

the task, apparently, was an easy one.

Germans by surprise in the onslaught,
capturing numerous positions which
were REGARDED as impregnable, and TAX

BURMA PRESENTS A PARADOX
Most Mournful Of Religions Firmly
Established Among Most Cheer.
ful Of Al Races

In no country Of the world is Budd-
hlsln 30 firmly established as in Bur-
ma, according to the Churchman. It
Is a curious coincidence that one of
the most cheerful and light hearted
races has adopted what is perhaps the
most mournful religion that exists in
the world. If one wants to realize the
impossible gulf between the pessimism
Of Buddhism and the optimism Of the
Burmese, between the despair of life
which stamps the n and the deter
mination to enjoy itself which is so
marked a characterization of the 9th
er, n must e these Burmese cele-
brating a religious festival. E. F. Trot-
man, who has been working under the
bishop Of Rangoon, describes the fam
nus pagoda feast at Shwe Dagon:
"The pagoda stands on a hill, gleam-
ing for miles across the levels. -Four
long covered stairways lead up to a
broad level platform 800 by SOC feet,
surrounded by shrines and pagodas Of
every size and description, and in ev.
cry stage of barbaric splendor. In the
midst springs the great pagoda, sc
feet high, covered with gold plates be-
low, gilded to the summit, where it is
crowned with a royal hti or umbrella,
studded with precious stones and jew
els. The whole court is full of a seeth-
ing, joyous crowd, which is continually
being REINFORCED as new parties
swarm up the stairs, blowing great
conches or shells to proclaim that
they r bringing their offerings to
the monks. They will 60 to one or 9th.
er Of the shrines and intone their
Buddhist devotions, proclaiming that
all is sorrow, and then give themselves
up to unmitigated enjoyment, and
watch the dancers or the mines. Ny
RAIDS Of candles, burning in honor Of
Him who found the light illuminate
the shrines and the pagoda base, dim
ming even the glorious moonlight into
which above the pagoda is seen to
tower"

Cactus as a Heart stimuIant.

The occasional discovery of some
useful piece Of knowledge that has
been thrusting itself under u very
noses for ages, and yet has escaped de-
lection, serves to emphasize the limi-
tations of the sum total of human
knowledge as compared to the still un-
solved mysteries Of the universe, re-
marks the Los Angeles Times.
1t is a recent discovery, for example,
that the cactus plant contains an al
most invaluable heart stimulant. For
merly the entire cactus family was re-
garded as practically useless for man
or beast so far as could be determined.
Then it was discovered that this plant
made excellent fodder for domestic
animals when shorn of it's spines; and
chemists found in the leaves a SUBJ
stance which appeared to be a power
full heart stimulant for human beings.
Curiously enough, this substance does
not affect the lower animals as it does
human beings, and this fact led many
investigators to question it's potency.
Most medical substances affect the
lower animals. or, at least, some Of
them, in much the same n as
they affect human beings. Cactus is an
exception, however, and, although it
contains a heart stimulant of such
powerful action that it must be ad-
ministered with caution, it produces
no %perceptible effects on the animals
that are commonly used for the test
ing experiments.

Chinese olive Kings"

"The Five Kings" is the name Of
the sacred book in which is incorpor-
ated the religion of the Chinese as
well as a great number Of other peo-
pies of the Orient.
The doctrine is a complex system Of
moral, social, political and religious
teaching built up by Confucius on the
ancient Chinese traditions, and, al
though its author lived more than five
centuries before the birth of Christ, it
is still perpetuated as the state re-
ligion Of the Chinese down to the pres
ent day.
Confucianism is a religion without
positive revelation, says an exchange,
with a minimum of dogmatic teaching,
whose popular worship is centered in
offerings to the dead, in which the no.
ton of duty is extended beyond the
sphere Of morals proper sc as to en-
brace almost every detail of daily life.

Origin of Superstitions.

Mans curiosity is in Excess Of his
power to interpret and understand.
Consequently, he guesses, and when he
guesses wildly and-as it seems to 9TH
ers, probably Of later date-inaccu-
rately, his guess is called a supersti-
ton, writes j. Arthur Hill in Cham
bers Journal.
Owing to the innate conservatism
Of human nature, a superstition may
finger long after its origin is COM
,pletely forgotten and after people have
clearly seen that there is no rational
evidence for the thing believed. This
applies to customs of all sorts.
