ORPHBI'Ai.
RUTH BUD RETURNING.

All the way from distant Australia,
where she scored unheard of triumphs,
little Ruth Budd, yclept The Girl
With the Smile" has come back TO the
Orpheum Circuit She will appear 10
cally, beginning September %, at the
Orpheum Theater.
Miss Budd. whose smile is declared
to be as dazzling as the sun, is not new
to Orpheum audiences. She toured the
circuit last season with her novel
fiying-rings act, and this season she
is returning with an improvement over
the old offering. She will be remem-
bered as the vivacious sprite whose
disdain of danger as she flung herself
recklessly hither and yOn in the air
drew gasps of admiration from the
audiences. The ease and confidence
displayed as she performed untiringly
on the rings were remarkable.
The herald. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1905-1953, 1918-09-19

Hardly more than a child in years
and appearance, she looks anything but
acrobatic. She makes her entrance in a
street dress and she looks Ike the aver
age girl, perhaps trifie sealtrier. But
when she discards the feminine habili-
ments and stands revealed in a tight
fitting white suit she displays a per-
feet form, superb figure like one of
those exquisite dryads who haunted
the open air in the first of life-only
it is more perfect; a gloriously youth
full body to make any woman envious.
Her arms are wondrously beautiful
and her muscles are long and smooth,
so that they show but little underneath
the velvet skin. And when she easily
and gracefully lifts herself upon the
rings one cannot help but marvel at
the great strength that is hidden in
those normal-looking arms. 1t seems
almost impossible for one so exquis-
itely feminine.

BarnacIes on Warships.

WarshipS have to be cleaned on the
outside. On one ship alone 200 men
worked all day scraping off 600 tons of
animal and plant growth. This ire
mendous quantity of sea life had ac-
cumulated in less than two years, dur
ing which time the ship had Travelled
many thousand miles. The weight Of
the barnacles was so great that from
% to 40 per cent more coal was con
sumed in maintaining the normal speed
of the boat.

Air Plants,

never attached to the soil in any way,
but rely for their moisture on the at
mosphere. One kind, known as
"Spaniard's Beard" (Tillandsia usneO-
ides), attaches itself to telephone

a positive nuisance, and it is neceS-
sary to send men to clear it away. The
"Spaniard's Beard" has no proper
leaves, and in appearance is simply a
mass of green gray threads.-Wide

Wayside Ministries.

This is hurrying age, as we often
remind ourselves, and many tasks
which we would like to accomplish
must perforce remain unattended to.
But for some things there is always
time. Duty can always be done,
Kindness can always be shown, way
side ministries need not be neglected.
There Is never an excuse for the
haste that makes waste; there is al
ways room. in the case of a man who,
with divine help, plans his life for a
certain amount of self-culture and
social necessity.

Nature Of Fatigue.

Fatigue is the presence in the blood
Of poisonous by-products of life COM
bustion. While we are awake the poi
sons accumulate faster than the sys-
tenn can remove them. When we are
asleep, when the life combustion is
slowed down, the system removes them
faster than they accumulate. 1t is
as though ashes accumulate in a stove
at such rate that the fire had to be
put out every so often to allow a
chance to remove them.
