ATOMIC
HAS BUST OF HERODOTUS
Antique in Metropolitan Museum of
Art Identified as Portrait of
Father of History.

DR.. Robinson, director of the Metro
politan Museum of Art, in New York,
has identified an antique marble bust,
which has been in the museums store
room for 20 or 80 years, as being a
portait of Herodotus, ''the father Of
history" The marble, which has lain
in dust all these years, will now as
sumo an important place of honor iii
the institution.
There are but five known portraits
of Herodotus. The New York portrait
bust was originally found at Benha.
in Lower Egypt, and passed into the
possession of Emil Brugsch Bey, from
whom it was acquired and presented
to the Metropolitan Museum of Arts.
The recognition was based on the re-
semblance Of the known portraits and
the finding of the learned mans name
inscribed upon it. AS work of art it
was not very highly regarded. but as
the sixth known portrait of Herodotus
it assumes new dignity. 1t is also said
to be one Of the best portraits extant.

These are some Of the amazing facts

headquarters had 10000 kilograms in

There were $500 miles of telegraphs

Derwentwater LoveIiest Lake.
But Derwentwater itself is the real
reward of the journey. 1t is generally
considered the Ioveliest of all the
lakes, and 1t is also the most accessi-
BILE, good road encircling it. Beyond
Keswick we pass Greta Hall, once the
home of Southey, and come to Bas-
senthwaite Water. Preferably taking
the left-hand road, Skiddaw, 1854 feet,
is seen across the water. Cocker
mouth Is some six miles further.
Returning from that town, the other
side of Bassenthwaite Water may be
taken, and the rest of the way back
to Grasmere is identical with the out
ward run. The distance, including
the circuit of Derwentwater, is about
seventy-six miles.
But Derwentwater is worth a more
leisured trip, for its own sake. The
trip from Grasmere to Keswick and
the circuit of Derwentwater and back
is thirty-five miles. The advantages
are with the tourist proceeding to
Keswick and there turning left and
past the church, following the eastern
side of the lake to Lodore, where the
Fails of Lodore," sung by Southey,
will be found. Beyond we come to
shepherds Crag, overhanging the road,
and past the BorrOwdale hotel and the
narrow pass called the Saws of Bor-
rowdale," whose rocks so greatly
alarmed Gray $50 years ago. At Grange
where the River Derwent flows out Of
Derwentwater, the road abruptly turns,
to- follow the western lakeside. In
the pleasant vale at Grange is that
giant rock, the "Bowder Stone"
The peculiar advantages of staying
at Grasmere are many. Not least
among them is that within five miles
you have not only Grasmere itself,
rivaling Derwentwater for loneliness,
but Rydal Water, and the town of Am
bleside, with Windermere, the largest
and most popular of the lakes beyond.
All are within an easy walk for the
tourist staying at Grasmere, who will
scarce take out his car when he can
indulge in pleasant footpath rambles
for q change.
The car is for farther afield. For
example, the run to Penrith, along
Ullswater. The out and home run is
fifty-six miles. The best way from
Grasmere is to take the Windermere
road, as far as Waterhead; thence
turning to the left and up to Trout
beck. The nearer route, up from Am
bleside to Kirkstone Pass, is an ex-
ceedingly steep climb, but it can be
taken on the return.
On the way to Ullswater the gloomy
little mountain town of Brothers Wa
ter is passed, and then comes the de-
scent to pleasant, sunny Patterdale.
Here the seven miles long lake Of
Ullswater, the second longest of the
lakes, begins, skirted all the way by
delightful road. with the waterfall Of
Aira Force midway, spouting from it's
woody glen. Ullswater ends at Pooley
Bridge, whence it is seven and half
miles into the quaint old market town
of Penrith, passing Yanwath Hall, now
farm house, but good surviving
specimen of the fifteenth century for
titled border residence; and thence
over the ancient lamont Bridge, built
in 1925.

REVIVE GENTLE ART
OF PEDESTRIANlSM
Sport Has Basked in LimeIight
at Various Times.
Fifty Years Ago Professional Walkers
Were as Celebrated as Jack Demp-
sey and Ty Cobb Are Today
Bicycle Killed Game.

A couple of million young men of
America have in the past two years
had considerable exercise in "hoofing
it." 1t wasn't voluntary hoofng, either,
but the army is the army, and when
you enter it you are sometimes re-
CURED to make long marches. All of
which leads to the thought that the
gentle art Of pedestrianism is about
due for great revival.
There was an almost revival of
walking a few years ago when Edward
Payson Weston, the veteran pedes-
trian, pulled off his celebrated trans.
continental walking stunt, but it-sort
of fizzled.
1t is forty-two years since London
witnessed the conclusion of pne of
the most famous international walk
ing matches, such as were held in the
seventies and early eighties. William
Homes, one of the greatest pedes-
TRANS Of the day, was England's
choice in the memorable contest,
while Dan O'Leary represented Ire
land and America. Dan had taken
part in a number of walking matches
on this side of the Atlantic, and there
was great disappointment over here
when the news came that he had been
vanquished by the Britisher in the
300-mile contest. OLeary is now 76
years old and has walked over 10000
miles.
In the seventies the professional
walkers were as celebrated as Jess
Willard (?) and Ty Cobb are today.
They rolled in money and basked in the
limelight Of popular adulation. Many
of the records set up in those days in
England and America have never
been surpassed, and, unless profess
sional walking comes into vogue
again, probably never will be.
1t was the bicycle which killed
pedestrianism. When the safety" was
invented it not only became a sub
stitute for shank's mares, but cycling
became the most popular sport in the
world. Walking as a sport died a
sudden death, but as long as humans
have legs there is always the hope
that pedestrianism will again come
to the fore, to the great benefit of the
human race.

children,s SPENDING Money.

The practice OF. doing out money to
the children by dribbles, when they
tease for it, and without holding them
to any responsibility in the matter of
spending it, is undoubtedly responsible
for most of the prevalent unthrift
among our young people. 1t is quite
natural that this childish attitude to-
ward money should continue even into
the period when the young person be-
comes a money-earner on his own ac-
count, and oftentimes, into his adult

INTEREST IN TRAPSHOOTING
Many New Clubs Have Been Formed
and Old Ones Revived-Country
Clubs Most Active.

That the war put renewed interest
in trapshooting is proven by the fact
that 221 new trapshooting clubs were
formed the first six months Of the year
and that 242 clubs that were inactive
for long time were revived. One
trapshooting league was formed, also.
1t is at the country clubs that the
greatest interest is being shown in
