Anthem Many Centuries Old.

The youngest of the nations has the
oldest of hymns. Such is substantial
ly the case. For while the independ-
ence Of the Jewish commonwealth in
Palestine was assured by declaration
of the British government more than a
year ago, that commonwealth is not
vet organized to the extent that the
Polish and Czecho-Slovak states are.
Yet its prospective citizens, though
still scattered far and wide through
out the earth, cherish as the chief of
their anthems one whose weird and
haunting melody dates back not mere
ly generations or centuries but thou
sands of years. 1t is said to be the
Identical melody which was sung by
Miriam and her companions to cele-
brate the crossing of the Red sea by
the children of Israel and the destruc-
ton of Pharaoh's pursuing hosts.

CLUB ANNIVERSARY

The Santa Cruz Club is arranging
for the anniversary ball, which IS
given on New Years Eve OF each
year, the first of January being the
anniversary of creation of the club,
which has grown and prospered, be-
ing one Of the institutions Of Noga--
les.
The function will be given at the
club rooms next Tuesday evening
when with mirth and joy, to the
strains of exquisite music the Old
Year will be danced out and 1919
will be ushered in.
The anniversary ball of the Santa
Cruz Club is the great social event
of the year; and it draws always a
large concourse of participants. This
year elaborate preparations are
making, and in all particulars and
appointments it promises to be "the
best yet"

Brothers saIuted and Died.

Such possibilities as have been pre-
sented to the men of our destroyers
have been well met. There are exam
pies of heroism not surpassed by any
thing in the history of our navy. For
instance, there is the case of the two
young brothers who were wireless op-
orators on destroyer which was bad
ly damaged by an explosion. Stagger-
ing forward, away from the injured
part of the ship, these boys met the
captain. Not realizing how badly they
were hurt, he ordered them below to
get medical attention.
mo, sir" said the elder brother;
"give it to some of the poor devils
back there who've got chance. We're
done for. Please notify our mother
we died on duty" And at that the
pair saluted their commander and col
lapsed. In a few seconds both were
dead.-Gregory Mason in the Outlook.

Where Trees Are MIXED.

In British Guiana and the West In.
dies, particularly on the banks of the
River Demerara, there grows a tree
known to the natives as the "Hya-
hya," which yields from its bark and
pith a juice slightly richer and thicker
than cows milk. The tree is about
forty feet in height and eighteen
inches in circumference when full
grown, and the natives use its juice
as we do milk, 1t being perfectly harm
less and mixing well with water. The
Cingalese, have a tree, they call
"Kiriaghuma," which yields fluid in
all respects like milk, while in the for
ests of Para grows tree called the
.Massenodendron," which gives milk
like juice. 1t can be kept for an IN
definite time and shows no tendency
to become sour. On the other hand,
certain trees in the valleys of Aragua
and in Canagua yield similar fluid,
which, when exposed to the air, begins
to form a kind of cheese which very
soon becomes sour. In the Canary
islands there is a tree called ''Tabaya
Dolce" of which the milk, thickened
into jelly, is considered delicacy.

'ADORN' FACE WITH MUSTACHE
Hairy Ainus Would Seem to Have
Peculiar Ideas as to What Adds
to Feminine Beauty.

The Anus, the "Celtic" race Of
Japan, live in the island of Yeddo, al
though the race has become so re-
duced that, it is estimated, there are
now not more than 10000 or 1900 OF
them left in the country.
The most noticeable popularity
about Ainu women is that they have
tattooed upon their upper and lower
lips what resembles a mustache. The
women are not considered attractive
and their matrimonial prospects are
quite injured, without this decoration.
The mustache is begun when the
girl is quite a child, until it extends
partly across the cheek, the material
used being the SCOT from burning
birch bark. The face is cut and the
black rubbed in. Afterward 1t Is
washed In a solution Of ash bark
liquor to fix the color.
. The Ainu women are said to be
usually finely formed, straight and
we'll developed, with small hands and
feet. Their eyes are beautiful soft
brown, their hair black and most lux
uriant and their complexion olive,
with often deep, rich color In their
cheeks.
The native cloth-of which their
garments are made--is woven from
the fiber of the bark of the elm tree.

GOOD INVESTMENT IN SMILE
inexpensive, and Nothing One Can
Own Will Bring a Greater Return
Should Be a Promise.

A pleasant smile is the most mex
pensive investment on earth and 1t Is
the greatest one to bring a return.
How wish everyone could realize
just what 1t means to smile. I think
we all would smile oftener If we did.
So many people have told me how hard
1t is for them to smile. Here is my re-
cipe-here it is, very simple: When
you are about to smile, think first that
lin your smile you are to promise
something. That is really what
smile is for. 1t is promise, and you
may make it any kind of a promise
you like. Some people hardly move
their lips at all in smile, while 9TH
ers smile entirely with their lips and
leave their eyes expressionless.
The best smile Of all is the one
that promises most. At your mirror
you may practice smiling with great
success. Just conjure up the person
you want to smile at and fit the smile
to the vision. 1t will surprise you
to know how many different kinds Of
promises one happy smile may sug-
gest. 1t is so like happy party to
have a person around who smiles on
general principles and promises nothing
at all but gladness for the very joy
of living. Cheerfuiness such as this
Is life's finest tonic-Exchange.

The following news items, sent out
by the Red Cross publicity depart

the greatest of organizations in
America:
All male employees at the London
receiving and distributing headquar-
ters of the American Red Cross are
ex-soldiers discharged for disability.
In one month they packed $4,000
separate articles and shipped 300
bales of supplies to the front
At the request Of officials of the air
service the American Red Cross is
providing special comforts for Amer
lean flying men overseas. Uncle Sam
wants his sky sailors to have every
attention.
The fact that Uncle Sam is about
to take Kaiser Bill to the woodshed
has not caused any letup in Red
Cross activities. Red Cross workers
won't take a day off until the last
American soldier has been landed on
his own doorstep.
Speaking about scraps of paper, the
American Red Cross has just handed
the British Red Cross a check for $2,-
385OO0.
Mourning brassards as a substitute
for regular mourning for relatives of
men lost in the service have met With
the approval of the bereaved families.
Red Cross divisions have asked head
quarters for a total of 10000 of the
brassards. Parents and widows of
the men get them free of charge and
other relatives at cost
More than one thousand aged and
infirm Belgians from the front-line
areas, many of whom were under
shellfire for months, are being cared
for by the American Red Cross in a
massive old stone building near Mon
treuil, France. The place was for
merly the house of the Carthusian
monks.
Three hundred Belgian children are
now comfortably situated in a ten

Leather From Various skins.

In the hunt for new sources of leath-
er strange things are turning up. 1t
has been ascertained that the skins OF
frogs and toads can be tanned and
turned to account for card cases and
other fancy articles. The government
fisheries bureau says the skin of the
Goldfish furnishes an excellent leather,
tough as parchment and very durable.
The same is true of salmon skin. Eel
skins are employed in Europe for bind
ing books, and in Egypt shoe soles are
made from the skins Of certain fishes
caught in the Red sea. Sturgeon skin
affords a handsome ornamental leath-
er, and the hide of the armored garfish
is much valued in Europe, being COW
cred with horny plates that can be pol
ished to an ivorylike finish.

Permanence of the Heroic.

The way that the memory of heroes
survives for tens of centuries in popu
lar story and tradition is astonishing.
And no hero has left such great le-
gend as Alexander the Great. The
Turks in complimenting the national
hero of Albania, surnamed him Isken-
der (Alexander) Bey, and the follow
ing passage from SteePs India
Through the Ages" is evidence of the
extraordinary impression made upon
the Hindu mind by the exploits of the
Macedonian in the Land of the Five
Rivers:
''In every little village 'Jullunder'
(Alexander) is still name wherewith
to conjure, and the village doctor still
claims, with pride, to follow the 'Yu-
mani (Ionian) system of medicine"

This has proved to be q season in
which more is required of frocks and
suits than in pre-war times. With the
very good intention of saving wool or
labor, clothes have been created to
answer for different sorts of wear, to
ct in with varying background, and to
make it possible to be well dressed on
a contracted allowance of money. If
one were to try to define the one thing
that distinguishes this seasons ap-
parel from all others it is likely that
the wearableness and adaptability of
outer garments would be selected as
the outstanding features. The street
suit that is easily converted into an
afternoon dress, and the frock that is
quickly adapted to street wear, are
lourishing in the good opinion of
women.
The effort of designers to make
these two-in-one garments has result
ed In some original and handsome
street clothes as well as in lovely
frocks that do duty for day and eve
ming wear. Now that the war is over
there may be no further need for such
economies, but some of the novel
street garments that were inspired by
them are sure to remain with us. The

The committee says: "It is i'm

dence which these small handfuls of
British prisoners have preserved
throughout their sufferings. It is a
spirit which has been consistently

wltch is pictured here is an example
of Gne ,designing-a "going about" cos
tune that will bear comparison with
the best of street suits. It is graceful
and unusual, with suggestion Of the
Russian blouse in its lines. The easy,
comfortable body is extended into a
pointed yoke at the top of the skirt
and has smart high collar and a
deep cape at the back. Length of line
is emphasized by the row Of small
bone buttons down the front from
neck to hem, which is not disturbed by
the narrow girdle of cloth. A little
border of fur at the top of the wide
collar is a smart touch that could not
be spared. The skirt is ankle length
and might be very little longer for q
short figure.
The trotteur is as practical as a
street suit and is capable of much In
dividuality and distinction. A hat or
hag, or both, fur scarf and muff, may
tone it up to quite formal dress; 1t
lends itself to accessories more or less
dressy and is therefore a versatile and
interesting garment.
