British Land Changing Hands.

Durham fetched $430,0O0 when cut up

land to another syndicate for $1,000

Want to Rent Old CASTER

If anybody wants to buy a ruined
castle, described a s 'of great histor-
ical and romantic history" now is their
chance, according to advertisements in
serted III the British papers.
1t is not exactly modern, dating, as
1t does, from 1906, and the advertiser
states hat Considerable outlay will
be required to reconstruct it." The
purchaser is assured, however, that it
reconstructed, "a unique and charming
home would result"
Nothing is said about ghosts, but 1t
stands to reason that a castle of this
age must have a large and lively flock
OF such insects. So here's a chance for
some of Americas millionaires to &C
quire at small cost a castle-and all
that goes with 1t.
An added inducement is that there is
good trout fishing near by, so that
when tired of gazing at his unique and
charming home the purchaser can rest
his mind by going fishing.

INDIAN THIEF HAD INGENUITY
Remarkably Clever stratagem by
Which PIeaan Escaped With tfts
Booty Of Stolen Ponies.

Among the many interesting stories
told by members of the Canadian
mounted police is one that has tt do
with the cleverness Of an Indian.
One snowy morning a band of Crees
awoke to find that about a dozen of
their ponies had been stolen during the
night. A band to go in pursuit was
Immediately organized, and in the
course of an hour the trail was struck.
h band followed 1t for thirty miles
or more, till 1t entered a river and
headed for a little wooded island,
Smoke was rising from the trees, and
an opening, apparently the mouth Of
a cave. was in plain view. Presently
a Piegan Indian showed himself in
front of the opening. At his heels was
n dog.
Pretty soon the dog scented the
Crees, who were lying low, and began
growing and barking. The Piegan look
ed up, glanced about him for n moment
and hen instantly entered the ave
IT: about ter seconds, another Piegan
came round the rocks and also went
in then another, and another and an
other. The Crees lay silently in the
bushes, counting, till upward of fifty
Piegans had come round the rocks and
gone into the cave, and still they kept
coming. Each carried a rifle.
When at last seventy men had disap-
peared in the cave, the superstitious
and cautious Crees concluded that the
evil spirit had something to do with
II. So thoroughly were they filed with
this idea that even when reinforce
ments came, which was in a few hours,
they were reluctant to attack the
island.
That night, however, m Cree, less
credulous than the others, crossed over
the ice To investigate. On approach
ing the supposed cave, he found that
1t was no cave at all, but simply an
opening leading some ten feet into the
rock, where 1t made a urn and came
out on the other side.
There was the remnant of n single
camp fire, the ponies were gone and
not an Indian was in sight. The in
genious Piegan thief, by making the
circuit of the passage, and the end of
the island seventy times, had so de-
ceived his p%ursuers as to gain the
time necessary for his escape.

Facts of Dentistry.

The first American dentist to prac-
tice that profession exclusively was
probably a Doctor Jones, who opened
the pioneer dental Office in New York
131 years ago, according to a notice
appearing in the newspapers of that
period.
1t is only within the last half century
that dental surgery has become a real
science. Before that time physicians
were called on to pull aching molars,
and at an earlier period BARRIERS were
usually dentists. The elaborate dental
work of today is a development of the
last quarter of a century.
OdOntology, the science Of the teeth,
may be said to have commenced with
the researches Of Prof. Richard Owen.
who in 1889 made the first definite an
nouncement of the organic connection
between the vascular and the hard sub
stance of the tooth.

The long underslip of satin or fou-
lard, used as a foundation for after
noon or evening dresses has proved
a wonderful help in the summer ward
robe. The same slip serves for veal
with long blouses, and the very popu-
lar smocks that just now hold the
center of fashions stage, as well as
for the original and special overdress
that caused 1t to be made. Dresses
made with an underslip with various
kinds of overdress are not outrivaled
by any others for afternoon wear.
Sometimes the underslip is plain, with
overdress in a figured fabric and some
times this order Is reversed, as in the
afternoon gown at the left of the two
shown above.
Foulard and georgette make the
most popular of all combinations for
dresses of this kind. Here they ap-
pear in a long underslip of figured
foulard with bodice and overskirt of
plain georgette, laid in box plaits and
with a border of foulard about the
bottom of the o~verdress. The georg-
cite provides the sleeves, girdle and
collar, hut foulard accounts for the
cuffs. There is a lace collar also and

The ereen-R Bottle FIy-EnIarsed.

and the same habit has been recorded
for 1t In this country. 1t has been
known to deposit Eggs on the soiled
rumps of calves as well as sheep, fol-
lowing diarrhea, and occasionally 1t
infests wounds on animals.
1t is usually slightly smaller than
the black blowfly and the screw-worm
ay. It's color ranges from a brilliant
blush green to q dark metallic bronze
green. 1t is without stripes or other
markings.
The adult flies usually appear during
the first warm days of spring and are
present throughout the summer, though
they seldom become as numerous as
he screw-worm fly or black blowfy.
The length of time required for devel-
opment is about the same as that re-
quired by the black blowfiy. The mag
gots breed exclusively In animal mat
ter.
There are two or more species Of
files of this group which occasionally
breed in living animals. apparently at
lacking only old fostering wounds.
They are of comparatively little i'm
p%ortance. and since there are a great
number Of different kinds of flies Of
this group some of which are not at
all Injurious, 1t is hardly necessary
that the stockmen learn to recognize
them. Their size varies considerably
from a little larger than the common
housefiy to somewhat larger than the
black blowfly. The color is usually uni
formly gray, with black stripes on the
back.
Many of the members of this group
Of flies retain the eggs in the abdo-
men until they hatch, and thus bring
forth living maggots. Those species
which attack living animals breed In
decaying animal matter, and their life
history is almost the same as that of
the screw-worm fly. The flies seldom
become very numerous, and in most of
the cases in which they are found In
living animals they are located in old
fostering wounds or the young are
deposited after a sore has become in
Tested by screw worms. These flies
seem to be able to Withstand the hot,
dry weather Of midsummer in the
Southwest and probably are respon-
sible for many of the cases Of infes-
tation Of animals during such periods.

lace appears in the sleeves. Evidently
the plain neck is passing and few will
regret it for the plain neck finish is not

A later arrival in styles for after
noon frocks is shown at the right of
the picture and it foreshadows some
thing new for fall. This is a gown
made of shot taffeta silk, and 1t sug-
gests the 'bustle dress" Of two or
three years ago. One material and
cleverly managed drapery Of it, are
the means at hand with which the
designer has succeeded in making an
interesting and very pleasing dress.
Bunchy drapery is caught at the right
side below the hip, with ribbon in long
loops and ends. Frills Of lace set of
the neck and make a pretty chemi-
settle, adding their daintiness to the
sleeves. This model, modified a little
and made up in light-colored silks,
makes a lovely evening dress. One OF
these in blue taffeta shot with gray,
has the silk draped at both sides of the
skirt, a slip-over bodice with Chinese
collar) that extends below the waist
line in front and forms a sash. This
is tied in a buoyant bow at the back.

Mrs. Bently jumped at the chance

chance to slip out to the beach for a
breath of fresh air.

eastward. Suddenly someone appeared
out of the night and stood beside her.
Even in the starless night she knew
him..

The blind man started at the sound

girls shoulder and he kept it there

Big Demand for Diamonds.

The demand for diamonds all over
the world so far exceeds the supply
that the stocks Of importers and cut
tiers are practically exhausted and they
are unable to fill the orders of their
retail customers. This condition was

ly to the prosperity of the country.
The wartime period of bonanza wages
has made the working people the ma
TONS greatest diamond buyers. This
class, 1t was said, had absorbed a large
portion of the small stones on the mar
