TELL OF BABYLONIAN LIFE
Interesting Revelations in Clay Tablets
That Were written" On Some
Forty Centuries Ago.

The University of South Dakota at
Yermillion has come into possession
of 81 genuine Babylonian tablets, dis
covered by Arabs in the ruins of bur-
led cities and collected at Bagdad.
They have been deciphered by DR..
Edgar J. Banks of Alpine, N. J., an
authority on these clay and brick rec
ords of 1000 years ago, and their
authenticity proved. Fully half of the
tablets in this collection are perfect
and all Of them are legible. They are
only few inches in size and were
written on when they were soft clay,
later being dried, or baked. Most of
them are of about the date 1850 B. c.,
few going as far back as $500 B. c.,
and others dating from the time of
the fall of Babylon before the Per-
slams, in 53S B. G. The most valuable
tablet of the collection is a letter.
Holes were made through it so that
1t might be attached to a cord and
carried in this way. Next in point of
value and interest are number of
neo-Babylonian tablets of sundried
clay containing business contracts of
all sorts and giving pictures of the
life of the people after the Persian
conquest. OF special interest is a
small tablet of exercises In writing,
done by some boy in the temple school
over 40 centuries ago.

WOULD MAKE EASIER READING
Boston Man Has Idea for Printing
Books That Is Interesting but
Revolutionary.

Why not print all books in such a
way that every page is a right-hand
page? asks d. l. Winslow of Boston,
who claims q patent for his conception
of how to do it. He holds that if one
has to read pages on one side of book
only, this will be held more easily, the
eyes will not wander, there will be no
necessity for changing the position Of
head and neck when passing from one
page to another. Thus reading, espe-
cially of big, heavy volumes, will be
less fatiguing not only to the eyes,
head and neck, but also to the arms
and hands.
Mr.. Wdnslow's idea is to print book
so that you read straight ahead from
right-hand page to right-hand page,
these being numbered consecutively;
then, when you have read through to
the last right-hand page, you turn the
book upside down and continue reading
as before, what in ordinary books are
left-hand pages now being right-hand
pages This, of course, involves print
ing all left-hand pages upside down
and numbering them consecutively
from the back Of the book. This would
easily be arranged by the printer in
laying out the forms, though to get the
pagination of a large book correct
would require some nice calculation on
the printers part.

TRAGEDY IN INCREASED GIRTH
Mar May Smile at His Rotundty, but
to Woman 1t Is Matter
of Terror.

A fat man Is usually jolly sort of
an individual who accepts the world
as the same sort of joke as the world
considers him. Girth may worry man
occasionally because it is an annoy
ance, but with the modern woman it
verges upon tragedy. AS physicians
if they would talk freely-can tell you,
1t is worry to them that frequently
leads to ruined health, insanity or the
grave, the New York Sun says.
1t is possible for a man to grow fat
gracefully. AT least he can subdue his
habits, stop running for trains, give up
his golf and spend most of his time in
ponderous poses. His tailor can easily
arrange his clothing into well known
and accepted lines.
The case of the woman is different.
Fashion binds her as with a chain.
There are no stylish frocks for stout
women. The fashion calls for slim fig
ures and trim ankles. Waists and hips
are taboo. There are no sleeves capa'
BILE of concealing overfleshed arms.
Man can adapt his clothes to his fig
ure, but woman must adapt her figure
to the clothes or else shamelessly adj
NIT that she cannot wear what is
fashionable.
1t was not always so. In another
generation the stout woman had
well-defined place = the "dowager
type" it was sometimes called, The
woman who made the best biscuits and
cooked the most savory chicken was
always a rotund sort of person who
never minded it when people came I'M
expectedly around at dinner time. She
was the one children flocked to for
sympathy and the one who seemed to
make the world brighter wherever she
went.

Irish Travel Stops.

The tourist resorts of Ireland-the
Lakes Of Killarney and Glengarriff-
have suffered greatly during the war
and the resumption of normal condi-
tons, with freedom of travel for pleas
IRE, will be required to bring hack
their old-time prosperity. SO Queens
town and, to smaller degree, the
city of Cork has been affected by the
entire cessation of the extensive pas
senger traffic to and from the United
States. Queenstown was the prnci-
pal port for Irish emigration to the
United States and the change in that
respect is highly significant. There
are more young men in Ireland today
than there were for very many years
before the war. Emigration, which
for the ten years ending March 1, 1911,
averaged 3S,S0S from all Ireland, fell
in 1917 to 2,111, and in 1918 to $50
natives of Ireland. Embarkation of
emigrants and others from Queens
town which amounted to 20,SS3 in 1913,
and 81, 430 In 1914, stopped altogether
in November, 1914.

WILL BE BOON TO INVALID
independence, Comfort, and Exercise
All Provided in New Chair Pro-
PEELED by Electricity.

A new era of independence, comfort
and exercise is promised to invalids
In an electrically-propelled chair that
is now being made by firm of surgi-
cal engineers In London.
In appearance it is little more than
a very comfortable, observation-disclosures
pended bath chair or invalid's car
rage, The propulsive motion is cleo
tricity. 1t is silent, travels a distance
of over twenty miles on a single
charge and has four speeds, ranging
from crawl up to five miles per
hour.
The control is said to be so SIM
pie that any person, no matter with
what disabilities, can sit in the car
riage and start right away, and it
is fitted with reverse on all speeds.
1t is only necessary to hold the steer
ing lever with the left hand and gent
ly push over the controller handle
with the right hand. The use of the
carriage renders an invalid independ-
ent of chair man or attendant, and the
cost of upkeep is said to be trivial.

CUTTING THIRD SET OF TEETH
Memphis (Tenn.) Man, at 81, Is Also
Renewing His Youth and Vigor
in Other Ways.

The adage that there is nothing new
under the sun has been disproved by
N. D. Starr, who has cut third set
of teeth at the age of eighty-four.
when usually the only new molars,
bicuspids, etc, that can be achieved
are those purchased from dentist.
says the Memphis Commercial Appeal.
Mr. Starr, who is in the employ of
the Memphis Artesian Water company,
recently found himself in need of set
of these artificial substitutes for the
teeth provided by nature. But when
he visited his dentist the price was too
high and he decided to go tOothless.
However, through one of the unac-
countable happenings which some
times upsets all rules, Mr.. Starr dis
covered that he was cutting ~ new
teeth. They are almost through now,
although they are not very useful yet
owing to the fact that his gums are
sore in fashion familiar to all moth
ers of teething infants or to boys and
girls whose second teeth are replacing
their baby teeth, and even the older
boys and girls who proudly announce
I'm cutting wisdom tooth"
Dentists doubtless will contend
that such a thing cannot happen. But
Mr.. Starr knows that he now has teeth
where no teeth were before. More
over, he says his eyesight is better
than it was several years ago and
that so far from his vigor being i'm
paired by advancing years he feels
stronger and more youthful than he
did when he was seventy.

RUSSIAN HERO IN PAJAMAS
Soldier of Denikin's Army, Decorated
for Bravery, ALFRED In Altogether
Unconventional Uniform.

The highest decoration for valOr
that could be given a soldier in Deni-
kin's army was pinned to the breast
of a soldier whose uniform ran a close
second to that of Kipling's hero, Gun
ga Din, says a communication from
Ekaterlnodar, South Russia, TO the
Stars and Stripes.
The medal was pinned to the sol
dier's jacket, which was the upper part
of a pair of pajamas, and the rest of
his outfit was only a pair of British
military trousers. He was barefooted
and hatless.
The clothing worn by this man typi-
fies the conditions that exist in the
army fighting the bolshevlki in that
country. They do not have service
of supply and they do not have a reg
ulation uniform.
General Bradoff, who decorated the
pajama-j acketed hero, wore the
tunic of a British Tommie, and the
guard of troops who furnished the
background for the decoration cere-
monies, wore parts of uniforms from
a dozen different armies. With the
exception of a group of Cossack cav
airy, the decorated soldier was the
neatest-dressed man of the lot.
The hero, on his own initiative, led
detachment of scouts in capturing a
town from the bolsheviki. He was
wounded in carrying out this exploit,
taken to a hospital and given suit
of pajamas. When he left he took the
pajama jacket to replace his wornout
Russian tunic, and he had not been
able to replace it.

A Good Catch.

1t is impossible to repress a feeling
of satisfaction over the feat of the
Atlantic City game warden, who ap-
pretended the owner of a seaplane
guilty Of shooting wild geese in the
air. The law against this sort of
sport" is strict, and the penalty pro,
vided for offenders is ample. And, as
bird shooting from the air is on a
plane with the use of dynamite and
selnes in closed waters, the more rig
idly the statute is enforced the better.
Any lenlency would be disastrous to
the bird life of the country and calam-
itous to the United States.-Detroit
