An Asset

A minister was assigned to small
parish not long ago. and upon his ar
rival found his new field of labor all
that could be desired, with the excep-
ton of old Bill Johnson.
Old Bill was addicted to looking up
on the wine when it was red. and the
new minister announced his intention
Of bringing him to see the error of his
ways.
"Well, of course. we know you mean
right" one of the elders said. "but II
would be mighty bad thing for the
place If old Bill stopped drinking"
"Why, what do you mean, brother?"
the puzzled minister asked.
"Well, parson, it's like this" the el.
der explained. There amt more
convincing talker nowhere than old
Bill. Every time he gets drunk and
sobers down he gets somebody to sign
the pledge with him, and the other fek
low usually keeps it."

VICTIM OF TURKS RAPAClTY
Dead City of Farmagusta, on Island OF
Cyprus, Monument to Their
Savagery and Hate.

FarmaguSta, "the place of the god
dess," is in a desolate corner of t11>
far-famed island of Cyprus. One look
at the wrecked city shows plainly that
the goddess has forsaken her affairs.
1t looks as though sandstone had
struck the place and buried its glory
beneath a dune, from which rise the
remains Of churches, towers and
cathedral.
1t was not, however, the sands OF
the tropics that laid the ancient me-
tropolis low. TIE Turks, wrathful at
this city of 300 churches, attacked it in
a siege which might have rivaled the
lengthy Trojan episode had not hun
ger overcome the city's defenders. The
pillaging of the conquerors completed
the ruin wrought by battering rams,
fire and stones.
Earthquakes followed and settled
the shattered stones further into the
sand. But through the city's days Of
destruction, even today, the outer walls
and bastions stand firm. The harbor
stronghold of Farmagusta would be n
formidable obstacle to attack even in
this day of 50-mile guns and scientific
artillery fire.
In one corner of the wall stands a
tower said to have been the scene of
Desdemona's death at the hands OF
Othello.
Aside from the strong walls there
are few bits of intact architecture
among the debris. An occasional palm
tree growing up through the ruins adds
to the effect of abandonment. A few
Turks hold the city gainst time, the
only enemy left to 1t.

Liuhts for Suruery.

The discovery that a pure red light
is complementary TO the greenish yell
low of the Horoscope, so that each
makes the eye more sensitive to the
ethers has made possible the use Of
X-rays during a surgical operation
without danger to the surgeons.
In the past it was necessary for the
surgeon to work with his hands ex-
posed to the baneful influence of the
rays. and also with mere shadowy
light of the rays themselves to work
by. Now it has been found,
through the experiments of French
surgeon, that operating with bright
red light alternating with the A-rays
makes the operation itself easier, and
also the alternating lights make the
eyes especially sensitive, so that the
most delicate and minor details of the
X-ray shadows seem clear.

Chihuahua Is Smallest.

The smallest of all recognized breeds
of dogs is the Chihuahua, which is also
one of the most intelligent of all the
canine family This breed is a product
of Mexico and is named after north
ern country where there are thousands
of these little dogs running wild and
multiplying each year. 1t seems re-
markable thing that in spite of the
fact that they have never had any
dog shows in Mexico, one only has to
visit that country and try to purchase
a really good, typical little Chihuahua
from a native to realize that the Next
cans know the worth of this dog of his
own country. How these dogs were
bred probably never will be known.
Some authorities have intimated that
they were bred some generations back
from large squirrels, and this view Ii
borne out by the fact that at one time
these dogs ran wild in the woods and
that the Chihuahua is nearly as pro-
ficient in running up trees as the sQuir-
rel.
