Sanitation Accorded sneeze.

In France, in earlier days, a sneeze
was greeted by the removal Of the hat.
and when the paroxysm was over the
sneezer formally returned the salute
of all present. In England, also, In
the seventeenth century, sneeze was
saluted by the removal Of the hat
Joseph Hall, bishop of Exeter, in 1927,
wrote that a man no longer reckoned
among his friends those who failed to
uncover when he sneezed. The Siamese
have a peculiar idea Of their own that
the gods are continually turning over
the pages of the judgment book, and
that when they come to the page re-
lating to any particular person that
individual invariably sneezee. Their
salutation is, MAY the Judgment be
favorable to you"

MADE BY SUN WoRsHIPERs
Theory Advanced Concerning Aper-
lures in Walls of the Casa Grande
Ruin in Arizona.

According to National Park news
paper bulletin issued by the depart
ment of the interior, there is much
speculation and concern on the part OF
tourists and psychologists over two
pairs of holes in the walls of the Casa
Grande ruin In Arizona. The holes
are about an inch and a half in diane
ter, and are bored through walls four
feet thick. They occur in pairs. each
pair on opposite sides of great CEN
trail room. The holes in each pair are
in line with each other, so that one
standing in dark first-floor room be-
hind the center room may look through
the innermost holes at the sky. One
pair points due east, the other pair
points north at declining angle.
One can only assume that the tribes
which built this most ancient of pueb-
los were deeply religious people and
worshipers Of the sun. An interesting
theory was recently advanced to ex-
plain the holes. 1t is said that these
holes form what might be called sea-
s0nal clock. Twice year, once as
the sun works north and once as 1t
works south along the eastern horizon,
it rises In line with the eastward
pointing holes and on one morning
possibly for three minutes, throws q
bar of light into the dark inner rooms
From this the ceremonial calendar
could be dated and certain festivals
would fall on the same day year aftel
year. One is reminded of Stonehenge
in England. where the sun at its sum
mer solstice shone down long alley
of stone monuments upon an altal
placed in the center of series o.
circles Of stones.

In MittIe Old New York;

If a certain actor had accompanied
a party of round-the-towners the 9TH
er night he would have been either
thrilled or embarrassed, says New
York Sun. After the theater the par
ty went to the Waldorf roof and saw
one of the actors former wives the
center of a gay, laughing party. The
next stop was at the Astor roof where
there was another former wife of the
same actor dining with a handsome
young gallant who danced divinely
and at the last stop on the Majestic
roof was the third former wife giving
dinner to several women and two
French army officers. It was hard to
tell which was the most beautiful.
They all seemed happy. 1t is remind
full of another actor who went to an
other theater than his own to see q
play. He was seated next to former
wife and her husband. They all chat
ted pleasantly together and later
supped together. A strange town
this New York.

American Invented Electric Fan.

Michael Faraday devised the cleo
tro-magnetic rotation apparatus in the
year 1922. Barlow In 1928 produced
the rotation of a star wheel placed In
the field of strong magnet.
These devices were very crude and
simple, however, and developed in
finltesimal power. Undoubtedly the
first electric motor employing mag
nets wound with many turns of wire,
and also comprising motor which util-
lied both permanent steel magnets and
electromagnetic, was that perfected by
Prof. Joseph Henry of Princeton. uni
versity, in the year 1881. Henry pro-
duced reciprocating motion as well as
the rotary motion by electromagnetic
means.
Henry's motor, according to Elee'
trical Experimental, was the fore
runner of the present day electric mo.
tor.

Be careful that you do not make q
disagreeable impression on people at
your first meeting. If you are unsocial
at first acquaintance, and finally decide
that those people will repay In smiles
and politeness, you will have to exert
yourself more than little to do away
with the first impression made by your
unresponsiveness. 1t will take many
months Of faithful work to counterfeit
in the mind of your employer that first
unfortunate impression you. made be-
fore you woke up to the fact that your
position held promises for the future.
First impressions are tenacious. Do
your best to make them favorable.

philippines Grow Best Hemp.

Hemp may grow all over the world,
but the famous Philippine fields are
the ones we know best as yet. They
have a real monopoly on the crop, as
their soil seems to be especially adapt
ed for it. The abaca. as they call it
looks very much like the banana tree.
They belong to. the same family, but
the fruit of the hemp tree is not edible.
and the fiber of the banana is not
strong enough to use.
The very best quality of hemp grown
in the Philippines comes from the
fields about Mount Mayor in Luzon.
The dust and. ashes of this majestic
volcano have formed the most perfect
soil for its culture, soil that is found
nowhere else in the world.

Old Church Deserted.

It is interesting to note that In the
old Lebanon Presbyterian church, near
Alma, s. c., which church has gone
down, a good church organ was al
lowed to remain IN the church build
ing and rot.
1t has been very many years since
any services were held in the building.
which in it's day was one ofcthe best
church buildings in this entire section.
The carpet still remains on the floor,
the old Bible is still on the stand and
the organ was never claimed by any
one. The building is almost rotten, the
doors having rotted and fallen down.
