Football Language In Britain.

However the ordinary journalist may
have to curb his pen, the descriptive
reporter Of football can still give rein
to his fancy and his rhetoric with little
fear Of the sub-editOrlal blue pencil.
To him a match is usually tour
ney," and the ball lends itself to such
varied description as "the leather"
"the oval" "the globe" or even the
bounding sphere If the players hail
from Sheffield they are "knifegrlnd-
ers;" from Northampton. "cobblers;"
from Luton, "strawhatters :" from
Reading, "biscuiters;" from Devon
shire, "cider drinkers" and from West
Ham, hammers"
The swift runner is "twinklefooted,"
or has brilliant hoofs." If a player
is skillfuI in head play, he uses the
Uranium with brilliant effect" or does
"gOOd brain-box work" If the ball
hits a man on the nose, he receives
smacker from the spherOid on his
probGSCis."

Keeping Tools in Good Order.

Anyone who has collection Of
small tools, such as taps, drills, ETC.,
will find it a good plan to line the tool
drawers with corrugated paper, so
that each tool will keep its proper
place and be easily identified, says
Popular Mechanics Magazine If the
atmosphere in the neighborhood Of
the drawer contains considerable mois-
ture, as is likely in districts along the
coast, it is advisable to saturate the
corrugated paper with oil, so that it
may creep around the small tools and
preserve them. AS the numbers stamp
ed on taps are usually too small to
be easily read, it is good policy to glue
a strip of white paper to the corrugat-
ed board at the position occupied by
each tap, with the number, size, and
number of threads per inch clearly
marked.

CARRIED THE SkVIOR'S CROSS
simon of cyrene Pressed Into Service
Through Accidental Meeting on
That Dread Day.

There is a more or less general be-
lief that Simon, who carried the cross
for Jesus was negro. While there is
no direct evidence on this point, he
was probably white man and jew
The city of Cyrene, from which he
came, was in northern Africa, but it
was a Greek city and the Jews were
settled there in large numbers. Simon
was Jewish name and not likely to
have been borne by a native African.
st. Mark speaks of him as one Simon,
a Cyrenian, the father of Alexander
and Rufus, both of whom were we'll
known Jews and white. The curious
thing about'Simon's carrying the cross
on which Jesus was to be crucifed
was that he had nothing to do with the
proceedings before Pontius PLATE, and
was forced into the service of carrying
the cross. Matthew, after describing
the trial and the surrender of Jesus to
the crowd, says: "And they came out,
and they found a man of Cyrene,
Simon by name; him they compelled
to bear His cross" Mark says: "And
they compelled one Simon, Cyrenian,
who passed by, coming out of the
country, the father of Alexander and
Rufus, to bear His cross" Luke says:
"And as they led Him away they laid
hold on one Simon, Cyrenian, coming
out Of the country, and on him they
laid the cross, that he might bear it
for Jesus" These accounts indicate
that the crowd met Simon by chance
and that he was pressed into the serv-
ice of carrying the cross.

Raising Birds in Captivity.

The first attempts to produce a do
nestle supply of parrots and Cockatoos
were made with incubators. This was
unsuccessful. The eggs Matched, but
the baby birds persisted for lack of
mothers care in feeding them, all
young birds of the parrot family being
fed from the parent birds crop, like
doves or pigeons. Efforts were made
to feed the incubator-hatched birds by
hand, but to raise a single parrot by
this method almost required the serv-
ices Of special nurse. Setting par
rots and cockatoos were then tried,
and with greater success. The nesting
room is virtually an artificial jungle
in which the temperature is kept at
10 degrees F. Humidity is main
tanned by numerous tiny spray pipes
that discharge onto the sand floor upon
which the birds make their nests

les Magazine.

EASY TO RAISE BANDIT ARMY
Manuel Lozado Made Hunger His
Chief Recruiting Sergeant and
Thereby Rose to Power.

Manuel Lozado, the Mexican bandit,
whose remains now lie In the cemetery
near Topic, In the newly made state Of
Nayartt, gave the key to the whole
Mexican problem by his strategy In or
ganizing armies, declares Charles
Johnston, in The Atlantic. Lozado
was notable because he waged war
against three presidents, Benito
Juarez, Lerdo de Tejada and Porfrio
DtaZ, and because he raised and
equipped armies Of poems strong
enough to attack great cities like Topic
and Guadalajara, in a struggle lasting
from 1870 to 1877.
It was Lozado's custom, when new
campaign against the central authori-
ties was in contemplation, to send his
bodyguard down from their lairs In the
high Sierras to the fertile plains, with
orders to cut down all banana plants,
thus destroying the chief food supply
of the native villages.
The poems starved for while, and
watched their women and children
starve, then they came up the noun
tains In body and begged Lozado to
enroll them in his army of bandits to
lead them forth to plumber, which for
them meant simply food.
This gives clew to the situation,
declares Mr.. Johnston, because it
shows that banditry and plumber are
the last resources Of hungry poems,
pressed beyond the verge when their
meager sustenance is cut off.

QUESTION
IS SERIOUS IN
GREAT BRITAIN
Problems Take Lead Over
/! World Affairs Through
out England.

London, Feb. 14.-1ndustrial ques-
tions in Great Britain are, for the first
time, making the peace conference
and world reconstruction merely
minor issues. The demands of miners
and railway men with the high cost
of food and other problems of do
mestic reconstruction, command chief
attention from the newspapers, and
the veteran labor leaders, William
Brace and ]. H. Thomas, told the
house of commons last nights that the
country is confronted by the most
serious crisis in recent history.
Following the decision Of the min
ers' federation to call for a strike
ballot, the federation has issued a
reply to the government regarding
the miners demands. This charges
the government with trying to turn
public opinion against the miners and
refuses to accept the data upon which
the government based its offer of a
shilling a day increase in wages 1t
says the demand for a 80 per cent in
crease with six hour day is de-
signed to raise their standard Of liv-
ing. The demand for the nationali-
zation Of the mining industry is re-
iterated.
