ANCIENT JAP DYNASTY

The present Japanese dynasty is by far the eldest in the world, for Yoshi- hito claims tc be the one hundred and twenty-second monarch of an unbroken line. dating from the seventh century before the Christian era. The early history of Nippon, as recorded in the holy book, Shinto begins with the dy- nasties of the gods and is wholly mythical in nature. The dawn of real history begins with the reign of Jim mn Tenno whose name is revered to- dav bv all the sons of Nippon.

REIsINGFORs, OLD TOWN

Helsingfors, the capital of Finland, is one of the interesting towns of Europe. Water seems to surround 1t on every side. It dates back to 1850, when it was founded by the Swedish king Gustavus Vasa, and the hber- ties of a town were immediately con ferred upon the little hamlet as a special favor. From the water side it is protected by the great fortress of Sveaborg, which is called the Gibraltar of the Baltic" and of which one occasionally reads in the news dispatches. The highest point in Helsingfors is crowned by a great and imposing Lutheran church, and the majority of the Films are adher- enss of this faith.

TAKING IN BoARDERs

Riley Sherum and Lodema Butler were united in marriage by J. Id. Smith, justice of the peace, at the courthouse, last Thursday morning.
 Dan Suathagime and Edna Hunter were united in marriage by Justice Of the Peace Smith at the same time and place.
 The couples are Wsllapais, and as the women are supposed to do all the work under the marriage state, we take it that these two women have simply engaged to board the men for the balance of their lives.

WHERE TO GET THE MUTTON

In these days of Hooverizing we are surprised to note the many kinds ot dishes that are being prepared for the edifjcation of those who eat. One in particular that will look good to those who like good things is way to pre- pare q leg of mutton. But the maker of the recipe fails to state where and how the leg of mutton is to be obtain ed. Another one that may meet with popular favor is how to make meat loaf with grated carrots that are made to disDlace the egg. Even pancakes are to be thus treated, the carrot glv- ing a flavor that will surely put the cold storage egg out of commission.
