/, mythology. The Sibyls were proph-
etesses, half human, half divine, but
not immortal, whom, etymologists
say, gained their name through a
Greek word meaning Genus coun-
cil' At any rate, they were very
wise and very. very old.
History recalls that It was the
Cumean Sibyl who guided Aeneas
through the Internal regions. and
1t was she who brought the roll of
prophecies to Tarquinius which
Virgil afterward embodied in his
ecologue and through which he won
his semi-Christian fame. There are
SibylsN in the Sistine Chapel, the
work OF Michelangelo.
AS Sibilla the name name into
Christian use. The lovely wife of
Thor. whose hair was cut off by
Lok and its place supplied by gold
en- tresses supposed to represent
the harvest, was called Sibilla, or
Sib. Sibilla of Conversana was the
name OF the wife of Robert of Nor
mandy, and Sebille was the form in
which she gave it to France There
! 1t belonged to the Angevin Queen
a., OF Jerusalem, whose marriage gave
so much trouble to the Crusade. 1t
was very popular among English
ladies of noble blood
! Spain adopted 1t and straightway
changed ii to the soft SevilIa or
+ Sebilla, made famous in the songs
and poetry of that period. SibeIla
was the favorite Scotch and Irish
form. though Sibyl and Sibbie were
also popular there. Russia has a
curious form, Ssivilla.

POTATOES WILL Be S. ABUSHEL

Potatoes will bring the farmers from

fall, if the prediction Of John J. Cooley.
of Brainerd, Mimi. known as the
Potato King of Brainerd comes
true. Mr.. Cooley was in Great Falls
Friday investigating local market con
ditions. and placing orders for seed
potatoes.
Potatoes are short now throughout
the entire northwest. and because Of
that condition, they will be very scarce
next fall unless farmers get a bumper
crop. The acreage planted to spuds in
Montana, from present prospects, will be
smaller this year than for several
seasons. Seed is very high at the pre-
sent time. Practically all Of it has to
be shipped into the state from Min
nesota. Oregon, Idaho and Washington
has not enough seed potatoes for their
own use. Montana is but little better
supplied. North Dakota has about half
enough to plant a full acreage, and Min
| nesota is the only state which is able TO
export.
With spuds selling in the fields next
fall at S. bushel. it is probable they
will retail for from IL to Is cents Il

DRIED HUMAN HEAD
NEARLY PROVES JONAH
CARRYING IT AS MASCOT, AN
AMERICAN SOLDIER NARROW
LY ESCAPES ARREST.

PARIS.-An American veterans
mascot, dried human head from the
Jibro country in Ecuador, nearly
caused his arrest at the eastern from
tier of Germany.
Capt. T. H. Windsor, formerly a
soldier of fortune in South and Cen
trail America, after fighting in France
as airman, spent several months in
the Lithuanian army. An Indian
head mascot reduced to the size of
an orange, with the features perfect
ly recognizable, accompanied him ev-
erywhere, and, says Windsor, kept
him from injury from two crashes
in France and one in Lithuania.
At the Lithuanian German from
tier German customs officers who go
carefully through the baggage of all
travellers from the east found the
head in Windsor's baggage and evil
IDENTIFY decided that it was a bolshe-
vik trophy.
When questioned Windsor proudly
declared it was human, which in
creased their suspicion, and their SUI
lperior was summoned to arrest him.
Fortunately the latter had himself
been in the air service and the magic
word mascot" formed a bond of
sympathy He restored the head to
the American and passed him through
without opening the rest Of his bag
gage.
