some man by her SIDE AS the minister
held up his hand signaling for the slow

to press the first kiss on her ruby

As he did so, his foot caught in her
train and threw him off the track.

MAY Be TRUTH IN LEGEND
investigation Of "Enchanted Table"
In New Mexico Seems to Bear Out
Story Long Believed.

An isolated butte rising out Of vast
plain in the vast Southwest fiat
topped hill 40 feet high and with
sides so nearly vertical that for many
centuries it was supposed to be hope
lessly climb-proof, is one Of the most
interesting Of the natural wonders Of
this part Of the United States.
Many attempts to climb the EN-
chanted Table" or "Mesa Encantada,"
as the first Spanish settlers called 1t,
have beef made, but Indian superstf-
ton has attributed their failure large
~ to supernatural influence that
baked the ascent. Hence the name
Enchanted"
According to the Indian legend, the
mesa, which Is three miles northeast
of the well-known AcOma pueblo, In
New Mexico, was very anciently the
site Of prehistoric village. A fright
full storm carried away part of the
rock and with 1t the rocky staircase
which offered the only path Of access
to the summit.
AS result, the people in the village
were cut off from the plain below.
They could not climb down; no help
could reach them, and they starved to
death. The only survivors were few
who by chance were absent from the
mesa top at the time of the disaster.
From them, 1t is explained, are sprung
the present-day Inhabitants Of the pu-
eblo Of Acoma.
But science, while disposed to be
incredulous Of things improved. is at
the same time inclined to investiga-
ton. Hence an expedition which the
government bureau Of ethnolOgy sent
out to climb the Mesa Encantada. The
party, after almost incredible efforts,
arrived upon the top.
What they expected to find was
nothing. But, to their surprise, they
discovered, on the summit Of the mesa,
plain and unmistakable evidences Of
ancient occupancy, such as ruined
walls, and what they saw there af-
forded a measurable confirmation OF
the Indian legend.

Splendid Way To
Reduce Your Weight

There is perhaps no one thing that
so plainly shows the passing of our
youth as the horrible tendency to put
on too much weight after we have
reached the age of 25 or 80 years.
However young our faces may appear,
the sagging, tiabby figure and forty
inch waist gives us away"
The cause of this over stoutness is
that our stomachs convert the food
we eat into fat because there is not
enough oxygen in the blood to pro-
duce proper combustion to destroy
the excess fatty tissue. Fat people
will be pleased to learn of n simple
home method that Is wonderfully ef-
ficient in reducing weight, quickly
and easily without a starving diet,
violent massage or strenuous eXer-
else. Go to any drug store and get
a box of Phynola; take five grains
after each meal and at bed time. This
treatment will often give quick re-
lief from overburdening fat Ply
nola taken at meal time assists the
stomach in giving you the benefit of
the food you eat at the same time
dssolves the fatty tissue from any
part of the body where there is excess
sive fat. By this method many have
reduced their weight a pound a day
and there is no fabbiness left. Gorgas.

IContinued from First Pnge.l
which took over the first mortagage
bonds.
One of the results of the build
ing of the great auditorium at Pitts
burgh was an immediate increase
of the membership of Syria Temple,
so that, the revenue from fees and
dues was at once greatly increased,
making the maintenance of the au-
ditorium and the reduction of tho
bonded debt a comparatively easy
matter. Already the Pittsburgh fra
tcrnity is contemplating the ac-
quirement at a cost of $4,000 OF
contiguous vacant property fronting
on the boulevard.
Need Is Urgent
In submitting it's report the COM
mlttee will point out the urgent
need OF a great auditorium for Har-
risburg and the inSistent demand
for suitable convention hall which
the increasing convention activities
OF the city make necessary. 1t is be-
lieved the financial plan adopted
by the Pittsburgh Temple will serve
the purposes OF Zembo Temple with
some slight notifications. Tho au-
ditorium OF the Smoky CITY, is To-
Gated in the suburbs where ample
space was available and where suf-
ticient parking facilities for automo-
biles could be obtained. 1t is the be-
lief of the Harrisburg committee,
which made a study of the Pitts
burgh auditorium, that it would be
Unwise to locate the proposed hall
iii any central section for the reason
that great conventions would neces-
sarily compel provision for parking
hundreds of automobiles The COM
mittee suggests as an obvious need
parking facilities in connection with
such a building.
When Syria Temple erected Its
b & auditorium in Bigelow Boule-
ward, about five miles from the
business center of Pittsburgh, It's
membership was about the same as
the present numerical strength of
Zembo Temple, and with the rapid
growth of the Harrisburg organiZd-
ton Colonel Covert and those who
are associated with him and who
agree with him on the immediate
need of such building believe that
the undertaking is entirely feasible
from every standpoint and will pro-
vide for another great need of the
city following the achievement of
the community effort in the build
ing of the Penn-Harris Hotel.
Conference Called
In sending out the formal notices
for the conference next Wednesday
night, the officers of Zembo Temple
have killed two birds with one stone,
in that a beautifully printed book
let covering scenes and features OF

the Imperial Council session to be
held at Portland, Oregon, will give
the membership a fine impression of
the Pacific coast city which will en-
tertain the Mobiles next June. At
the convention next week the Har-
risburg men> of the fraternity will
determine to what extent the local
temple will be represented at the
Imperial Council. This booklet will
prove a valued souvenir and is OK
pected to arouse still greater inter-
est in the western trip.
Colonel Covert, as the official head
of Zembo Temple, when asked
whether the notices to the mem
bership covered all the details of
the proposed auditorium, stated that
the whole matter would be thor
oughly threshed out at the confer
ence next Wednesday. He added,
however, that he had no doubt OF
the success of the movement and
felt greatly encouraged over the
interest that had already been man.

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
Is very harmful. Mulsified cocoanut
oil shampoo (Which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless). is much better
than anything else you can use for
shampooing as this can't possibly
injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with wa
ter and rub it in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance OF
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and
excessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and 1t leaves It, fine and
silky bright. flsffy and easy to man
age.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil
shampoo at most any drug store. II

enough to last everyone in the fam

Expect to Find Fertile Field for

China. India and Afghqnistan

OMSK, Aug. 30.-According to a
Bolshevik wireless dispatch picked up
by the Intelligence Bureau of the ST.
berian General Staff, the Bolsheviki,
feeling that they have not succeeded in
Europe, intend to develop their propa-
ganda in an easterly direction, with
Asia as its special object.
The Siberian newspapers, comment
ing upon the dispatch, says such a
movement would have most serious
consequences for the world The
ground for Bolshevik propaganda in
the East is we'll prepared, the news
papers assert, for China since 1000 has
been in a state of unrest and the civil
strife between Southern and Northern
China could be used to advantage by
the Bolsheviki in their endeavor to in
cite the hundreds of millions of the
Chinese population.
According to the newspapers, the
Bolsheviki can also have great success
in India and Afghanistan, which at the
present time are in a state of serious
unrest.
Refugees from Yekaterinburg, gov
eminent of Perm, give details of the
Red terror in that city. More than
10000 people were killed in Yekaterin-
burg and the surrounding villages af-
ter the Bolshevik occupation, the refu-
gees say. The Hungarian and Chinese
detachments of the Red army were the
most cruel of all the Bolshevik forces.
