her guards slept together with the
thirty special men whom King had
brought with him up the Khyher.

1t is good for them all to wonder what

Pressing very close to him, she
guided him down another dark tunnel

mashinnton,s TWO Birthdays.

In 1882 Pope Gregory XIII ordered
that all the Catholic countries should
adopt a new calendar. This calendar
was correct and is at the present
time in general use throughout the
world. In the year that the calendar
was adopted ten days were dropped.
Thus the day after October 4 Of the
Julian calendar became October 10 in
the Gregorian. This calendar was not
adopted by England until 1862. Wash
ington being born in 1892, he was
twenty years old at the time the new
calendar was adopted. Thus his first
20 birthdays fell on the 18th Of Feb
ruary and the others fell on the 22nd

PEASkIT ARTS ARE REVIVED
Handcra :, Including Weaving, Metal
Work, Wood Carving ard Other
Gratis Revived in Europe.

On the other side of the Atlantic
there has been a much more extensive
revival than there has been in this
country of the sO-called peasant arts,
says the Brooklyn Eagle. Under this
head comes all sorts of handcraft-
weaving, metal work, wood carving
and other crafts in which the hand
rather than machinery guides the tool.
One reason for this revival is to be
found in the war conditions. Large
numbers of incapacitated soldiers sud
denly found themselves-after having
been discharged from hospitals-de-
prived in one way or another of their
usual means of activity, out of the
fight and with leisure enough to do
something if something could be de-
vised which they with their limited
strength or facilities might do. Many
of these men were men of great pow
ers Of appreciation and original ideas
and others possessed skilled hands and
the ability to use tools. In this way
were started many centerS where hadd-
crafts and peasant arts were revived,
and an immediate sale Of all the out
put of such centers showed not only a
willingness to help these workers, but
a true appreciation of their work. And
so the craze for hand-wrought articles
and fabrics of all sorts started, and
now centers have sprung up in many
quarters for this sort of thing.
Perhaps no class of persons ever
appreciated hand-wrought objects of
all sorts more than we Americans do.
Tourists from this country-in the
old days when we went to France for
| other purposes than to f1ght-were
noted for their craze for hand
made objects = hand-embroidered
waists, hand-carved picture frames,
hand woven linen and hand-done
every hing. The very fact that in our
land Machinery had been perfected to
such Il high degree must have had
some ing to do with it. In land like
ours, 'eisure folks have not patience
enoue for the slow accomplishments
of ha dcrafts, and labor is too high
and ti.Are are too many more remun-
erativ ways of employing it for us to
have :, large class of hand workers.
Hence we came to prize most highly
that Which we did not have.

company is representative for sever
al ladies' tailoring establishments and
an order placed with them receives
close attention.
Their bake shop is not being oper
ated, but has been newly painted and
remodeled, and as soon as a baker
can be secured, the shop will be OPP
ened and the company's own goods
offered for sale. At present they are
handling the Sunville Bakery COM
