PICTURESQUE IN ITS INERTIA
Town Of czJamarca, in Andes Noun
tains, Inhabited by People Seem
inoly Without Ambition.

The town of Caiamarca, neSueo
among the Andes mountains IS, per-
hans the most unambitiOus community
in the world, according to Harry A.
Franck. WHO writes in the Wide World
Magazine.
CaIamarca is very old, he says. Ihe
Standards found 1t when they CON
ouered the country centuries ago, Dut
nothing Of the old Inca civilization re-
mains, and the oldest buildings are the
churches that the ConquerorS erected.
Today. saws Mr.. Franck. the churches
stand architecturally incomplete, not
because time has demolished them OUT
because, according to local tradition
a finished structure in colonial days
had to pay tribute to the government
and so the builders cconomized by
stopping work before the churcheS
were finished.
1t is town where the upper class
IS distinguished by wearing collars ana
shoes and performing no manual labor
where the "lOwer class is ragged and
poverty stricken, and where life goes
on from year to year in state OF iner-
tia which nobody seems to find unde-
sirable. The unfinished churches give
the old town picturesque aspect, be-
Ing built Of stone and colored by the
passage of time until they remind a
traveller Of the ancient Spanish edl-
fees of Salamanca nor is there any
present likelihood that the town VIII
grow rich enough to spoil their pic
turesque incompleteness by finishing
them.

visitor from the outside world, mas

JOHNSON NOT FIRST IN FIELD
Contrary to Wide Belief, There Was
an English Dictionary Before
He Compiled His.

The oldest English dictionary Is not
that by Doctor Johnson, as so many
appear to think. There were many
such lexicons before his day, and the
earliest of them all was DIR. John Will
Iiams "An Alphabetical Dictionary"
appended to the authors ESSAY To-
ward a Real Character and a Phiio-
sophical Language" published in 1868.
Everybody seems to know that the
first printed London directory ap-
peared in 1877, frequent notices in" the
press being accountable for much, but
how many are aware that the art or
living in London was first reduced to
q science by Roger Grab, who In 1858
published q book, the first of its kind
ever seen, In which he discourses at
length on the scandalous extravaganza
of all who expended more than three
farthings per week upon their food.
( The earliest attempt to introduce
phonetic spelling Is afforded, SO far as
Is known, by Buffers "Fe11inine Mon
archy,"~ first published at oxford in
1909, and the Photographic" Of Trithe-
mitls, 1913, furnished the first attempt
at secret writing.
The earliest. collection Of maps Of
England and Wales is found in the
work Of Christopher Saxton, which
f1rst saw the light in the days of Eliza
beth. The maps number 35, and We're
published separately between 1873 and
1870, when title and index were add
ed and the whole series published in
book form.-Bookman'S Journal and

Now, she Is very sarcastic young
woman, and the man who wishes to
marry her is often much tornented
with her ability to say things which
make him distinctly uncomfortable.
One night one of his friends and he
decided to go to picture house and
there they saw a play in which the
caveman stuff was exceedingly strong.
Evidently that gave the young man
an inspiration, for the next cutting
remark the young woman made he
resented.
he had come to take her for a
drive. After getting her safely set
tied In his car and having placed a
large box Of candy in her lap he set
tied down for a pleasant evening.
But not long. The young woman could
not stand his ease. She deliberately
opened her box, took out a bonbon,
nibbled at It a minute and then said
IN icy tones: "Why, this candy Is
stale"
At first the young man felt inclined
to writhe, but the next minute the
caveman stuff Of the movie darted
Into his mind. He did what he
thought was a real rough act He
seized that beautiful box Of candy
and threw it as far as he could.
For a long time there was silence.
Then the girl began the conversation.
