How Japanese Enjoy Ice.

The japanese are probably the only
civilized people in the world who eat
ice in the way they do. Blocks or
small cakes of ice smashed into tiny
pebbly pieces are eaten with sugar and
lemon or any other mixture one may
fancy. But by far the commonest way
of eating ice is to shave 1t into snowy
flakes by means of plane and swal-
low 1t with sweetened water into which
various appetizers may be thrown such
us fruit juice or sweetmeats.. Ice
cream, milk and eggs shaken with ice,
and other kinds of cooling beverages
are sold in an ever-increasing guam
tity, but the old style of eating ice
that is, in the above described "kori-
midzu" fashions still in the great
est vogue. Every summer finds the
number Of kori shops swelling at an
enormous rutio.-Japan Advertiser.

WAS ORIGINAL OZARK HORSE
Explanation Of How the Term Came
to Have Place in American
Parlance.

The "dark horse" in politics Is the
successor Of a genuine dark horse that
won race in which he was supposed
to have no chance for victory. In early
days In Tennessee there was an old
man named Sam Flynn, very good
judge of hOrseflesh, who usually owned
an animal that could show a bit Of
speed. At one time Mr.. Flynn pos.
sessed n big black horse named Dusky
Pete, thoroughbred and very fast.
1t was Flynn's practice to go to a
neighborhood where he was not known,
ride Dusky Pete into town as IL he
were an ordinary mount and enter him
in one of the races that were the daily
sport of the frontier communities.
Dusky Pete always won.
Mr. Flynn arrived Mt one town just
before n big race anu entered his horse
as usual. There were several local
favorites In the contest and Mr.. Flynn
had no trouble In betting all his money
on his own horse mt long odds. Just
before the race, Judge McMinamee, u
turf follower, arrived and was per-
suaded to act as Judge of the contest.
Some of the horsemen described the
various entries and laughingly pointed
out the foolish stranger who had bet
all his money on his old nag. Judge
McMinamee at once recognized Dusky
Pete and his owner and remarked:
Gentlemen, there's n dark horse In
this race that will make some Of you
sick before night"
Judge McNIinamee's prediction was
fulfilled, and dark horse as bywOrd
has found permanent place in the
parlance of American politics.-Peo-

PRETTY MIDDLE-AGE LEGEND
City Of Rouen for Centuries Had Story
Of Its Own Concerning Mythical
-t-, Dragon.

st. George is always pictured in the
act Of driving spear through the
mythical dragon. Among many leg
ends is that of st. Romanus, in the sew
enth century, who is said to have de-
livered the city Of Rouen from one of
these monsters. The feat was accom-
plished In a very simple manner. On
Ascension day, Romanus, the city Of
ROuen being threatened by an inunda-
tion, took condemned criminal out
Of prison, and ordered him to go and
fetch the dragon that was disturbing
the waters. The criminal obeyed. The
dragon, following him into the city.
walked into blazing fire prepared for
It and was burned to death.
To commemorate this event. Dago-
bert, the French king. gave the clergy
Of Rouen the annual privilege of par
dOning condemned criminal on Ascen-
sion day, right that was exercised
with many ceremonies until the time
of the first French revolution. This
dragon, named Gargouille Ia water
spout, lived in the River Seine; and
as Romanus Is said to have construct
ed embankments to defend Rouen from
the Overflowing of that river. the
legend seems to explain itself. The
word "gargoyle" is used in architec-
ture, somewhat changed from its
French photography, as the name Of a
projecting stone spout usually carved
with a grOtesque figure, to throw the
roof water clear of the walls. The
primary meaning Of the word In
French is "thrOat" or "gullet."

BIGGEST COURT IN YEARS

Mondays court day was one of the
very biggest that Stanford has had
in years. A large crowd was on hand
and business in all lies was rushing,
There were only about 500 cattle
at the Nunnelley Stock Pens, but
every hoof was sold and many chang
ed hands two or three times during
the day. Cattle dealers estimate that
as high as 10 cents was realized for
some of the very best steers, while
bunch of % good ones were weigh
ed to well-known buyer at IL 1-2c.
All classes of cattle were in demand
and buyer and seller got together
quickly. An excellent grade of cat
tie was offered, and as grass is COM
ing good and strong, it is not strange
that the demand was great and the
prices high. A large number of mules
were sold during the day and like
cattle they brought big prices. SITS
to $3.50 were the ruling prices, some
extra good ones going over the latter
amount. Good horses were also in de-
mand, as was shown by the 25 ILL
nois mares offered by Joe Jordan
selling all the way from 5000 to
S285. There was very little demand
for plug horses, however. Horse and
cattle buyers were here from many
counties and it was scramble
among them to get to the owners
first. The merchants and other bust
ness men Jared well during the day
and March court of 1918 will long be
remembered as being banner one.
