LUCERNE: THE HOSTESS
OF SWITZERLAND

Lucerne, scene of important confer
ences among allied statesmen, is a
precious jewel among Swiss cities
with the lake Of the same name for
its setting-a lake where varied beauty
and historic association are blended.
On that lakes shores William Tell is
reputed to have exhibited his marks
manship to the discontinue of Gessler,
and on its waters tradition holds he
won his revenge by seizing the rudder
Of the vessel on which that tyrant held
him prisoner and guided it to the rock
where he aimed, not at an apple, but
at his oppressor's heart.
Less picturesque, but more signif-
cant, was the formulation of the per-
petual league. That famous instru-
ment not only was the antecedent of
the Swiss confederation, but marked
a mile post in humanity's political
freedom.
Beloved by tourists and crowded
with them in normal years, Lucerne
has retained many Of its ancient as
poets. Its crumbling wall with its
watch towers give it a medieval
bridges also serve as art galleries.
On the walls of one are depicted
scenes Of the city's history and the
other has paintings of the Dance Of
Death"
Perhaps the most famed art object
of the city is the Lion of Lucerne, con-
sidered by one critic ''the most appro-
pirate and touching monument in ex-
istence." In a grotto, hewn from the
natural rock, is a dying lion pierced
by a lance, with his paw protecting
the fleur-de-lys Of the Bourbons. Thor
waldsen, Danish sculptor, designed
this tribute to the Swiss guard who
died in seeking to protect Louis XVI
against the mob of Paris revolution
lists that stormed the Tuileries in 1892.
Many quaint houses remain, includ-
'ng the wooden structures whose in
aammability gave rise to curious fire
regulations. Wood for building could
not lie in the streets more than "a
hours. No smithy could work between
vespers and early mass. Every citi-
zen was a potential fire fighter and
the citizens brigade when called to a
| IRE had to await word from the mayor
| for dismissal. Women were required
to aid at night by holding lights in the
| 1oorways. Until two centuries ago
| the city fathers were assigned special
| duties in fire fighting.

The DRUGGIST SAID
HYPO-COD WOULD

Dayton Lady Weak and Nervous
Asked What She Should
Take.
RESULTS WERE FINE

81 was all worn out. 1 have worked
hard all my life and 1 really began
to believe 1 was going into a rapid
decline. l was all run down and felt
tired and weary all the time. 1 slept
fairly well, but all through the night
would dream, dream, dream until in the
morning 1 would wake up as tired and
weary as when l went to bed. My
nerves were almost shattered when
finally decided to suffer no longer and
asked my druggist for tonic. They
told me Earle's Hypo-Cod was one of
the best tonics they had so I bought
a bottle. I've taken almost three bot
ties now and 1 feel stronger and bet
ter in every way. I am not nervous
like I was and so I gladly recommend
it to Others" declared Mrs. Ida Phil
lips, 3124 Home Ave-, Dayton, o.
1t certainly is an excellent recon-
mendation for Hypo-Cod when a drug
gist says that this tonic is one Of the
best they have, when a hundred or
more are on the shelf. Druggists,
chemists and experts assert that Hypo-
God is a most powerful reconstructive
tonic. Drop in at your druggist to.
night and read the formula On bot

NEITHER WARS NOR RENTS
DISTURB THIS CURIOUS
PEOPLE

The cone dwellers of Asia Minor,
technically known as the Troglodytes
of Cappadocia, are harassed not at
all by the housing problem, for they
live in nature-made apartment houses,
fashioned by trickling streams and vol
canic violence.
Nor is it likely that they are con-
cerned in the least about their politi-
cal fate. for, though they inhabit what
lis characterized as the cradle of civil
ization." they are more primitive in
some particulars than the most be-
lighted tribes of Africa or the South
Pacific
A communication by J. R. Sitlington
Sterrett to the National Geographic
society describes the Cappadocians as
follows:

much disappointed. 1 recognized the
little girl as one who had thrown pea
nuts in my yard.
'But one can't account for the lack
Of friendship of some folks.
II wandered on and seeing a baby
carriage thought I'd look at the baby
to see what sort of child it was 60
ing to turn out to be. And 1 thought
I'd give it some good advice. thought
would tell it to be loyal to its friends
and not like a dear at one time and
then be horrid to its nurse at another
time.
"But didn't that baby's nurse hit
me; yes, hit me and screamed just as
IL I'd eaten up the baby. I didn't want
to do any harm. I only was out for an
airing, but they got me mad, they did.
"Then they all began to chase me
and there was great excitement. I
climbed up a tree and looked down
and grinned at them.
"But my pleasure was gone, for they
hadn't left me alone in the first place.
They didn't know how pleasant I
had felt when I started out.
"And so by the time got back
again, or rather by the time was
brought back, was so exhausted from
being chased, and so sad because
people liked to look at me and call on
me when I was here, but didn't want
me to call on them-that simply had
to have a good Sleep"
"Even If the people weren't so po-
lite," said Billy enviously, "you had
an adventure worth while"
IT did," agreed Mollie, as she start
ed to eat her dinner.

"The sugar extracted from this cane

"The sugar extracted from this cane
would load a fleet of steamers reach
ing from Havana to New York, with
a ship for every mile of the twelve
hundred that stretch between the two
ports. The great pyramid of Cheops,
before whose awe-inspiring proper
tions millions of people have stood
and gazed in Open-mouthed amaze
ment, remains, after five thousand
years, unrivaIed as a monumental pile;
but Cuba's sugar output this year
would make two pyramids, each out
basing and overtopping Cheops.
"The wealth the outgoing sugar crop
brings in Is not less remarkable in its
proportions. Four hundred dollars out
of a single crop for every human be-
ing who lives on the island-a sum
almost as great as the per capita
wealth produced by all the farms, all
the factories, and all the mines Of the
United States.
"What wonder, then, that Cuba to-
day is land of gold and gems, richer
than Midas ever was, converting
Croesus, by contrast, into beggar?
"How much net profit the cane grow
er reaps at 1920 prices is hard to es-
innate, but that it is large will appear
when the methods Of cane growing are
stated. To begin with, after the first
crop the planter does not have to
bother with seed time for about ten
years. The soil is so deep and so
fertile that one planting produces ten
harvests. Neither does cultivation
bother him after the first season, for
the blades stripped from one crop
form a mulch that keeps the weeds
from competing with the next one"

"Why did you do it?" asked Billy,

Because thought I would have

"My dear Billy" said MoIlie, 81 was
not paying any attention to the keeper.
I thought to myself:
"'When I come back I will have a
good dinner awaiting me and I may
be very hungry So I started forth"
"Oh, it was such a thrilling thing to
do" said Billy. 81 am really very
jealous of you for having gotten out
And did you like the park?"
"It's a nice park and it has few
nice trees" said Mollie, "but people
are very queer. Yes, they're very
queer, indeed"
"Tell me all about them-and every
thing" said Billy.
"You see 1 got out of my yard when
the keeper was fixing my dinner in my
small house, or at the entrance to my
house. I thought to myself:
"'Now, I'll have some adventures

WHEN THE NEAR EAST is
CIVILIZED

Roughly speaking. Turkey was d.
vided into five great provinces or dis
tricts-Anatolia, Armenia, Kurdistan,
Mesopotafnfa and Syria"
With this introduction William 81.
Hall, writing to the National Geograph-
ic society, sketches the resources OF
Turkey, which have an opportunity for
development with measures that may
lessen the horrors of misrule, injustice,
deportations, massacres and famines.
He continues:
'The same broad plains that once
fed and clothed population of 49,
100000 human beings are waiting to-
day for the plow, the seed and the
reaper. The mountains still hold
riches of coal and iron and copper.
The quarries still have abundance Of
choice marbles. The rivers are po-
tent with power to turn the wheels
of industry. The natural harbors in
vite the fleets of merchantmen and
the river valleys and mountain passes
offer natural lines Of communication
and transportation, as in the days
when great caravans passed along
these natural highways, bringing the
merchandise of the East to the mar
kets Of the West.
"The whole land has been lying fall
low for centuries-a land that modern
exploration reveals as one Of the rich
est in natural resources and as unsur-
passed by it's geographic location for
being the trade center Of the world.
Exclusive of Arabia, which was
never more than nominally under the
Ottoman dominion, the Turkish empire
embraced about $4,000 square miles
of territory at the, beginning of the
World war. Only about 10000 square
miles of this were in Europe. The
Turkish empire was equivalent to the
combined areas of the British Isles
France and pre-war Germany. 1t was
larger than all of the area east of the
Mississippi and north of the Ohio ant
Potomac rivers.
"The boundaries were the Black sea
and Caucasus on the north, Egypt or
the south, the Aegean and Mediter
ranean seas on the west, and the
Syrian desert and Persia on the east
Turkey in Europe was almost
negligible area, as the Balkan wars
| stripped the Turks of all their Eu
ropean possessions except Constant
nople and narrow territory along thu
Bosporus and Dardanelles some Al
miles in width so that when the Turk
ish empire has been referred to in re
cent years, Asiatic Turkey was nearl!

in their hands when they ascend the
Alps. So they bring their ropes with
them and lay them at the foot Of one
Of the mountains. Old and new ropes
are piled in a heap, and then they are
blessed by the pastor. Prayer is Of
fered that the old ropes may still bear
the strain safely and that the new
ropes may prove equal to all the stress
placed upon them. The guides are
commended to the mercy of God that
in their daily ascents they may be
kept safe, and that they may succor

In succeeding centuries became their

Inc practice of living in caves, in
clllrs or in eXcavated cavities in the
open plain is to be traced to a state
OF society which we of today have
some difficulty in depicting to our
selves. And yet the central thought
OF the Troglodytic habit is the basic
principle upon which ancient civiliza-
tcn was founded.
"1hey have sought and found for
themselves complete isolation. They
seem to have none of the instincts of
agricultural man and they are wholly
inhoslIitable.
III he entrances to their dwellings
are high up in the almost perpendicu-
lar walls of the cliffs, and they are
reached solely by means of long poles
which are light enough to be drawn
up when the lord of the den and his
family are safely housed. And when
housed they really are safe from in
trustcn, for it would require a host tt
force an entrance against the will Of
the family.
"One ancient writer tells us thai
some Troglodytes made a practice o.
killing all those who were not in first
rate physical condition, on the GROUND
that man who cannot earn his owl
living has no right to live; and wheI
one sees these dwellings, one can i'm
agine still another reason for killing
off the aged and the infirm-becaus'
of their inability to get in or out O

Chinese music is not written. The
words of some of the famous songs
have been preserved, but the music
has been handed down from father
to son for generations and goes far
back before the day of the trouba-

played according to the memory of the
musician and his ideas of interpreta-
ton. A musician varies the perform
ance as his judgment dictates and the
strings, reeds or brass may break in
