DRAWS MUSIC FROM A SAW
New Yorker Gets Startling and Pleas
ing Effects by Using the Tool
as Violin.

The conventional saw has recently
appeared in new role-namely, as a
musical instrument. Indeed, one of
the leading novelties of current New
York musical revue is the musical car
penter who uses his saw as a violin.
After protracted experimentation
and untiring practice, Sam Moore of
New York city has succeeded in get
ting very agreeable music from Ordin-
airy carpenters saw, according to the
Scientific American. He holds the saw
handle between his legs, holds the tip
of the saw I'm one hand and works the
usual violin bow with the other. The
vibrating steel blade emits soft, APP
pealing notes, the pitch Of which is
varied by changing the curvature of
the blade.
All sorts of queer effects can be
obtained by the adept manipulation
of the blade; In fact the music de-
rived by this means can hardly be de-
scribed. If anything, 1t resembles the
human voice; then again it has the
queer wall of the Hawaiian Ukulele.
All in all, the effect is startling and
pleasing.

EARLIEST OF ENGLISH COINS
Golden soIidus, Still in Existence, ls
Believed to Belong to Year
421 A. q.


The golden solidus of Scan Omodhu
is the earliest English coin in exist
ence, estimated to belong to the year
421 A. n. by Alfred Anscombe. F. r.
II. S., at q meeting of the British
Numismatic society. He expressed the
opinion that the coin had been struck
to commemorate the victory that the
Alemannic Prince Scan, duke of Cair
Benet, or Winchester, won over the
Saxon invaders OF Britain in the six
teenth year after that in which the
comet of A. ID. 443 was seen-namely,
I'm A. ID. 459. Scan was the official
chief of ten provincial kings in south
ern Britain. In the merlin" he was
called 'Dnke Escam." In the "Morte
d'Arthur" he was called Duke Eu-
stance" Wolfram Won Eschenbach,
circa 1910. said he was slain by Orilus,
lord of Cumberland.
The folk name 0mOdh, genitive
plural 0modhu, Mr.. Anseombe identi-
fed with the Amothingas of avid

Shrewsbury. and TO this day that town
is known by the Welsh as "Caer

When Women Buy

II is greatly TO the credit of Amer
lean housewives that in these days of
great sales it is the useful articles to
which they first pay attention. Shoes
come before chiffon and kitchen
equipment before parlor adornment.
At all the big stores which have been
conducting such sales one hears that
same report Women crowd to buy
cnameled ware, for example. Some
give as a reason that they have got
on with their old saucepans all dur
ing the war and jump at chance for
reasonable replacement.
Others explain that they have been
wanting a full set of enameled ware
and take this opportunity 10 get it.
In other words both are looking for
permanent household investment.
This is an encouraging sign of the
times. When women prove that they
realize that economy is not doing
without getting the best and making
it last, the country has taken a long
step toward reducing the high cost
of living.

The Baby's Guardian

A gentleman in Connecticut took not
long ago a collie from the Lothian
Kennels at Stepney. The dog, after
the fashion of its kind, soon made HIM
self, one of the family. and assumed
especial responsibilities in connection
with the youngest child, a girl, three
years of age.
1t happened one day in November
that the father was returning from a
drive and as ne neared his house he
noticed the dog in a pasture. which
was separated by a stone wall from
the road. From behind this wall the
collie would spring up, bark, and then
jump down again, constantly repeat
ing it. Leaving his horse and going e
the spot, he found his little girl seated
ON a stone, with the collie wagging his
Tail and keeping guard beside her. In
the light snow their path could be
plainly seen and as he tracked it back
he saw where the little one had walk
ed several times round an open well
in the pasture. Very close to the
brink were the prints of the baby S
shoes, but still closer on the edge OF
the we'll were the tracks of the collie
who had evidently kept between her
and the well. / need not tell you OF

FURNISHING THE PReOF

Charges by Governor Cox that
the G. O. p. had embarked on
a scheme to raise millions for the
Presidential election had more
behind them than the party
spokesman thought. After Chair
man Hays and Treasurer Upham
had appeared before the Senate
investigating committee, and
made flat denials of the charges,
their followers breathed easier.
But they are breathing hard
again, with the going to Chicago
OF +. II. Moore, of Ohio, Cox's
convention manager, and his per-
sonal representative in this in
quiry. Mr.. Moore demanded that
the committee summon Assistant
Treasurer Harry NJ. Blair and the
regional directors of the secret
'fund. He said that Blair knows
all about it, while it does not APP
pear on Upham's books, and
Blair and the regional directors
can give the committee some
startling information.
Treasurer Upham told the
committee and showed by his
records that a pittance Of few
hundred dollars had been sent the
committee from Maryland, and
several thousands had been bor-
rowed and sent to Maryland for
the Weller campaign. The Bal
timore financier who is collecting
for the national committee, de-
clares that he has sent $4,000 to
the committee. This is simply
one of the many instances
throughout the As states well
worth looking into.
