SEE BEGINNING OF NEW ERA
People Of HeIgoland viii Welcome
Return of Visitors to the Unfor-
tunate Little Island.

The change which dug huge fort
ress hundred feet deep in the cliffs,
covered them with gun emplacements
and girdled them with a labyrinth of
walls fifty feet thick was more than
doubtful blessing, and Helgoland must
have found her transformation into
the most notorious and sinister speck
of land In the world a severe strain on
her zeal for the fatherland.
When the war actually came her
fishermen were exiles; for they were
one and all shipped off to the main
land and the island was given over to
the gulls and the gunner. 1t is now
thrown open again, and beginning
has been made with the dismantling
of its mighty forts. The inhabitants
will cheerfully see the last of the
guns, and apparently they would like,
too, to be quit of German taxation;
but they hope quite reasonably that
the islands final disappearance may
be at least delayed by leaving the
great seawalls the Germans built.
This might well be done. for Helgo-
land so long as 1t lasts will be lode
! star for the curious, and there would
be a certain rough justice in the fact
of its people profiting In the future
by the worlds interest in its sinister
past that has cost them so dear.

Last Of caIapooIas Dies.

Down around Cottage Grove, Ore.
the old-timers are only discussing what
they remember Of the Calapoola Indian
tribe. The last specimen OF the tribe,
Sam Fern, went to the happy hunting
grounds few days ago and the peo-
pie at Cottage Grove are wondering
what will become of the land which
the Calapooia tribe was using. Some
of 1t is exceptionally fertile land. The
tribe got Its name from the range
Of mountains in that vicinity. or vice
versa, and the Calapooia were always
a peaceful band. This tribe went
through the great fire which swept the
coast range about century ago, when
the only way the Indians could save
themselves was to remain In the rivers
for several days. The fire was so In
tense that the water became warm.
Calapooia Indians declared that the
wild animals also fled to the river and
wolves and deer padded around to-
gether In perfect harmony.-Portland

IRREPARABLE LOSS TO WORLD
Treasures of Louvain Library, De-
stroyed by the Huns, Can by No
Possibility Be Replaced.

The completeness with which the
famous library of Louvain was de-
stroyed comes out in the report Of
the American committee which has
been visiting the ruin with view to
building a new library of Louvain
which Is to be the "free gift of the
United States" Some of the walls, pill
lars and buttresses remain standing
and even retain their carvings and
sculptures, but the idea of rebuilding
the library has been abandoned. OF
the contents of the Louvain library
nothing at all is left; the few volumes
that were found still retaining their
shape crumbled when touched. Aside
from the thousands of volumes that
can, be replaced the ruin contains the
ashes of at least a thousand manu-
scripts that were priceless, because 1t
would be impossible to replace them.
There were, one may admit, more
widely important things in the world,
for example. than the two autograph
manuscripts of Dionysius Carthusien-
sis. but Louvain was proud to possess
those specimens of his handwriting.
and all the wealth of the United
States cannot give them back.-Chris-

REFUSES TO BE C0MF0RTED
Given Remedy for Potato Bug Pest'
Pessimist Digs Up Another
Tale Of Woe.

A Kansas City farmer has proposed
a scheme for doing away with potato
bugs so simple that 1t seems ridicu-
lous. Perhaps not much dependence Is
to be placed In agricultural sugges-
tions offered by q Kansas City farmer.
Kansas farmers should command In
slant respect, but we would not be In
clined to have faith In Kansas City
farmer much more than In Manhat-
tan farmer. However, this hint may
be taken for what 1t is worth. The
Kansas City idea is that all that Is
necessary to keep the potato bugs
away is to plant one bean In the bill
with the seed potato. 1t seems that
the bugs hate beans.
Perhaps they do. Anyway, in our
own experience we can testify that
we have never seen potato bugs feed
ing on bean vines. 1t would be logi-
cal assumption that they will not ven
ture into the presence of beans. SO
far as we have observed there has not
been a potato bug in our garden this
season. Perhaps, that is because we
did not plant any potatoes. But gar
dens develop or encourage all kinds OF
bugs besides potato bugs. That Is one
of the harassing experiences Of about
every amateur gardener. And If 1t is
not bugs 1t is something else. Just as
you get your garden growing well.
along come a couple of calves or a
herd Of cows and eat off the tops of
everything. The bovine tribe seems to
have a peculiar fondness for young
corn. Only a person with bitter expe-
rience can fully appreciate the sig
nificance of that old nursery appeal to
Little Boy Blue to blow his horn on
account of the cows being in the corn.
Between the pests that bite the roots
or masticate the leaves and those. that
eat or trample the plants 1t is mighty
hard to raise growing things.-F. a.

Woman Who Had Lost Pets Had No
Trouble at all in Proving Owner
ship of Them.

A happy reunion took place at the
union stockyards, Heirs island, Pitts
burgh, an exchange declares, late the
other evening, when Mrs. P. ]. Riley
Of Fox Chase road, O'Hara township,
rescued her four stolen cows, awaiting
their doom at the hands Of the exc
cutioner.
During heavy rainstorm the other
afternoon the animals were stolen
from the pasture and driven to the
stockyards and sold. County detec-
tives traced the cows. but among the
hundreds of other "bossies" were un-
able to identify them. Mrs. Riley was
sent for. AS she stepped into the big
pen stampede among the animals for
a time threatened serious conse-
quences. When 1t had subsidized, the
detectives who were with Mrs. Riley
were amazed to see four of the cows
rushing toward the woman. Brushing
their heads against her shoulder, the
animals zooed and mooed soft express
sions of relief. Overjoyed, Mrs. Riley
grasped each around the neck In turn,
stroking their glossy coats and petting
them.
When their mistress left the big
stock pen, the cows followed her DIS
obediently as well-trained dogs, and
when last seen were vending their
way to their home on Fox Chase road
with their mistress.

his stand on the two corners outside,

SEE FUTURE IN THE SAND
How Arab Soothsayers Give Some Re
markable Forecasts of Coming
Events-Method a Mystery.

There is Il tremendous Fascination In
telling fortunes-likewisc in having
your fortune told.
All travellers bound east make up
their minds to have their fortunes told
by one or other of the divinutions
known to the Arab Or til. Egyptians.
4 very old bur little-known method
Of telling fortunes at the Pyramids is
by what is called sand divining."
The Arab, who is usually the fortune
teller, decoyS his client into some Sc
Guided corner. 1t is Of no use to re-
fuse him. for he begins by telling some
thing which he knows will arouse your
curiosity, says writer In London An
swers.
You make heap Of sand in u cor
her of the stones, similar to pyramid +;
then you are hidden to flattcn out your
handiwork and choose one of the i'm
prints Of either, your fingers or your
thumb. When you have done this the
Arab goes off into Il trance, beginning
to chant In a low voice.
This goes on for several minutes un-
til, with quick jerk of rhe head, he
brings himself back to life Of this
world. He then makes several passes
over your hand and uttcrs some ap-
parent prayers; he commences to tell
your fortune, always starting from the
chosen imprint Of your finger.
You get remarkably correct fore
cast Of coming events. The method re-
mains q MYSTERY but II ia generally
thought that the Arab has the gift of
second sight and this faculty is aided
by the supposed mystery concerning
your choice, which, according to the as
trologer. has some fatal meaning-that

hand when you made the mark In the

exchanged for your piece of silver.
