Farnum in the Soldiers Oath" is the attraction today for the final times at the Lamara and it is unques- tionably one of the most timely pic lures the Fox corporation could have selected for this occasion. It is laid on the battlefields of Europe and in the very identical spots where just now the gallant Allies. .are making history. Far mum is cast for the French soldier who is deeply wronged and who takes up the battle of life with a prison sentence hanging over his head, but who tri- umphs after fight that takes him to the very gates of hlighted hopes.

The Word SquaW.

The word squaw, the term for an
Indian woman, is said to have been
taken from the language Of a band Of
Indians in New England known as the
Narragansets, and is probably an alb
breviation Of the word eskwaw. Years
ago the word was carried over the
length and breadth Of Canada and the
United States, and came to be used
even by the Indians on the western
reservations, who have taken it from
the whites. A "squaw man" is an Indian
who does woman's work; also a white
man married to an Indian woman and
who lives with her people. After the
squaw have been named, squaw berry,
the partridge berry; squaw flower, the
plant known as trillium erecttum ;
squaw mint, the American pennyroyal;
squaw winter, used in parts Of the
Canadian Northwest to designate
mild beginning Of winter.

Way Of a Japanese Woman.

LafcadiO Hearn was n very crltcaE
man. For instance, when he was do
ing business with publishers In for
eign countries, and because he was 30
far away, the publisher would take
the liberty Of deciding the arrangement
OF such things as book covers and IL
lustratlons without consulting Hearn,
who was very particular about all de-
tails. At such times Hearn was often
made furiously angry. When he re-
celved letter from the publishing
house he would Immediately write back
a fierce (sic) answer In anger, and or
der II to be mailed at once; but ]
would say, Yes and hold It over a
mail. Two or three days Afterwards
when he had become calm, he would
regret that he had written too se-
verely, and would say: "Mamma.san,
have you mailed that letter. l woun
answer Yes and watch to see wheth-
err he really regretted 1t, II 80 would
give him the letter. He would be Inn
mensely pleased, and say. Mamma.

RED, EMBLEM OF DOMINATION
Has From Time lmmemorial Been Sig
ninoant of High Authority-Blue
Called Cloak OF Heaven.

OF all bright colors red is the favor
lite among primitive peoples. 1t ex-
cites to violence in flags and uniforms.
Red is the emblem Of domination in
politics and religion. The cardinal and
the doctor Of divinity have their red
robes.
On the other hand, red has replaced
green in one respect as restful color.
At great state functions out of doors
in India, such as durbar, red umbrel-
las are preferred to green as an effec-
tive sunshade.
Blue has minor influence. Curious
ly enough, it appears only to affect the
cat in the same way that red affects
other animals. Humanity has a respect
for blue, which is the cloak Of heaven.
In legends and fairy tales it is the
good little boy, destined to achieve
success in life and marry princess,
who is described as clothed in blue,
while red blouse serves for the bad
boy.

lreland,s Round lowers.

No one knows exactly when or why
the round towers in Ireland were
built, but some believe that the druids
erected them as watch towers and
places to which to go for safety in
time of danger. A good many Of the
towers have the tops broken down and
those which show the cone tops intact
have mostly been restored. There is
no door on the ground, the doors be-
ing purpOsely built at about 10 or
10 feet from the ground and were
reached by ladders.
After the people had climbed inside
they drew their ladders up after them
and thus were out Of reach of the
Danes who frequently invaded the
country. The tiny windows of these
towers are far up toward the top also.
About so round towers remain in Ire
land, but only few of them are per-
feet. According to one authority, they
were probably built between the 9th
and 18th centuries.

First Automobile Patent.

The first application for n patent for
an automobile was filed In the United
States patent Office by George b. Sell
den 80 years ago. Selden was q
patent lawyer in Rochester N. Y
when he first began to experiment with
the idea of vehicle propelled by "a
gasoline engine. Considering that hiR
"road engine" was not yet perfected
and that the times were not ripe for
It, he secured delay after delay, and
the patent was not definitely issued
until 1895. From the first, doubts
were cast on the validity Of the Sell
den patent, but 1t earned fortune
for the astute inventor-attorney and
for a long time dominated the motor
car industry of the United States.

METHODS OF MARKING MONEY
officials Trap REGULATORS Who Dip
Nefarlously Into the Cash
Drawer

In their surveillance and apprehen-
sion of suspected persons government
secret officers often find II necessary
TO 'mNrk the money" handled by such
persons. There are various methods
Of so marking the national currency,
one of the most novel Of which Is the
pin.prlck.
The note to be marked is, say, the
So silver certificate bearing the Wig
nette Of an Indian chief In full re-
gala Of feathers and trapplngs and
presenting Il full-face view, Win the
aid Of II pin the secret service man
makes two punctures in the bill d.
rectly In the pupils of the Indians
eyes. TO the casual and sometimes
even critical Inspector Of the note
these pln-prlcks are invisible. If
raised to the light, however, the bill
will distinctly reveal them.
The markings are complicated by
the following process: The pinpoint is
applied in the "twlst" Of the large
figure 8 Of the two upper corners of
the note. These tiny twists do not
appear on the "necks' of the two fig
ures 8 that are on both sides Of the
bottom of the note. The note is now
pierced again, this time at the ends
OF the scrolls on each side Of the
word "hve" in the lower center Of the
bill. The marking Is now complete.
In secret II Is exhibited to one or more
persons for purposes Of Identification
and is then placed in the till or money
drawer to which the suspected person
has access.
It is said that the pin-pricks will re-
main perfect for some time. When
such bills are produced in court and
their markings are explained under
oath conviction is practically certain.
