Omaha daily bee., 1919-01-26

The filmatization of "The Shop
herd of the Hills" has been year in
the making. The author, Harold
Bell Wright, wrote the scenario for
the pictures and has directed every
detail. His associates, consisting of
actors, actresses, artists and photog-
raphers, have numbered over 200
people, not TO mention the people
shown in the mob scenes; also,
there is a large number OF live
stock used. Horses, cattle, $50
sheep, collie dogs, birds and what
not This company has been to-
gether a year. Sometimes in Cali
ifornia, other times in the Ozark
mountains of Missouri. Mr.. Wright,
who is a great stickler for detail,
has spared no expense in his efforts
to keep the ensemble as nearly like
the original as possible throughout
the entire time it has taken to COM
plete the picture. For instance, the
flock of sheep was first secured in
the Ozarks. When the work was
finished there it was thought that
the sheep would be left there. Here
Mr.. Wright voiced an objection.
There was one scene to be taken in
California which must have some
sheep in the background, so the
original sheep actors had to travel
to California to appear in that par
ticular scene before they could be
dismissed. A very effective detail,
and only one Of the multitude which
help to make THE Shepherd of the
Hills" a truly great picture. THE
Shepherd Of the Hills" will be
shown at the Brandeis twice daily
for the week, beginning today.

Forty Is Sacred Number
With Respect to Weather
After st. SWithin'S Day

The 40-day period of imaginary
flood or drought following St Swith-
in's day is now long past for this year,
and we shall hear no more of that
singular superstition, says the New
York Herald, until next summer, when
it will doubtless bob up serenely,"
only to be discredited again as it has
invariably been every year since the
worthy bishop of Winchester was bur
led the second time. For, of course,
the prophecy has never so much as
once been fulfilled. 1t requires every
day from July Is to August "a in every
year to be either rainy or rainless,
which is something that never has
happened in any year.
Why 10 days was selected as the
period Of meteorological monotony is an
interesting question. though 1t is prob
able that it was suggested by the 40
days downpOur in Noah's time. Al
any rate, il is only one Of the many
noteworthy uses that have been made
Of the number 40 In fact and fiction.
After the 10 days and 40 nights Of
rain at the deluge, Ii will be recalled,
Noah waited 40 days before he opened
the window of the ark and sent forth
the raven.

Largest Shade Tree in
Country Is Sycamore; IS
Feet in Circumference

The American Forestry Magazine is
urging the planting of sycamOres for
shade trees. IT shows that they are OF
rapid growth and attain large size. 1t
also calls attention TO the beauty of
the tree-a thing which many people
do not really appreciate In the in
tereSt of more beautiful cities, it is
desirable that sycamores be encour-
aged, the magazine urges.
The largest shade tree in this coun-
try is a sycamore in WOrthington, Ind.
1t is 46 feet in circumference and 80
feet in height-the most beautiful
specimen of a tree to be found at least
in the middle West. But it isn't the
only grand old sycamore" to be
found; there are thousands and thou
sands of them in this country, says the
Columbus Dispatch.
The sycamore requires plenty of
moisture, but moisture is easily sup
piled in a modern city. Besides, the
tree has a habit of reaching out after
moisture, it's roots extending for long
distances and going deep into the
earth.

PROVES PLATE GLASS FADES
Window From Fashionable Haberdash-
er's Store, Installed in Fashionable
Residence, Still Carried Ad.

An amusing incident is related in the
Scientific American TO prove that plate
glass fades under exposure to sunlight.
The glass originally is slightly green,
and after some years of use becomes
pure white. The incident is briefly as
follows:
In making some changes in the front
OF a haberdasher's store, a five-foot
piece of plate glass was removed and
taken away by the glazier. In course
of time this sheet was installed in the
front window of a new residence. The
family had scarcely moved in when
they began to receive telephone mes
sages suggesting that the neighbor-
hood was scarcely appropriate for a
shirt factory. They were mystified
until they discovered that when the
sunlight struck their window at GER
tain angle the words, John Doe
Shirts Made to Order" shone out upon
the glass.
The explanation was that when the
glass formed the haberdasher's window
Ii had borne these words in white en-
amelled letters, and the letters had
protected the underlying glass from
the rays OF the sun, consequently IL
had not faded as the rest of the glass
had done.

THE REASON WHY
Explanation Given Which Explains
Efficacy of 1O1s Tonic

There are three important ingre-
dents in DR.. Williams 101 Tonic, each
one of which has an important duty.
They are Quinine, Iron and Mag
nesia. The quinine in the tonic clears
the blood of all influenza, malaria
or other harmful germs. The iron
builds up the rich. healthy. strength
ening blood which puts stamina into
the weakened body, and the magnesia
acts gently ON the liver and bowels,
cleaning away the accumulated pois-
ons.
This combination is of known
worth for the treatment of Colds, La
Grippe, Fever. Chills, Influenza and
Malaria.
During last years Influenza cpl
demic the sales of 101 Tonic increased
over 500 per cent. This is proof a.
plenty of the value of this remedy fol

Millions to Be Spent by

The japanese government is pre-

Of SIPS, OO0,O 600 for the development Of

aviation has been stimulated there by
the special French aviation corps
which is teaching the japanese army.
Japan is seriously backward in avia-
