THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
assassin"

IN 1890 there was founded in
L Asia secret society known
as the "Fedavis" or Devoted
Ones" the members of which
were pledged to implicit blind
obedience to the orders of their
superiors, no matter what di-
rectiOn these orders might take.
Hassan ben Sabbah, the Per-
sian, who founded the dreaded
order, was extremely explicit i'm
the rules he laid down for the
government of the organization,
which was partly religious and
partly secular In nature. The
members of the lower sections
of the society were kept in total
ignorance Of the teachings and
aims of the body to which they
belonged, and 1t was impressed
upon them that unfailing ODE
dience was their only key to
success In this life and happi-
ness in the next.
In order to give them a fore
taste Of the joys which were In
store for them, provided they
followed instructions, Hassan
ben Sabbah directed that they
be given a specified ration Of
hashish, or hemp-a narcotic
which produced effects an
alogous to those resulting from
the use of opium-and from this
practice the members Of the So
ciety became known as has
hashin or hemp-eaters. Euro
peans slightly altered the word
to assassin" and applied 1t to
anyone guilty of murder, this
crime being a favorite among
the Fedavis.

THE RIGHT THING
AT
THE RIGHT TIME
By MARY MARSHALL DUFFEE
AT THE TABLE

Ill can rule the great that cannot reach
the small.-Spenser.
4 VOID any little mannerism that
\ indicates extreme business or
finicalness of taste. The person who
appears to be examining infinitely
every morsel that he takes on his fork
makes one feel that he is suspicious
that the food Is not entirely what it
ought to be. So, too, the person who
samples every Wand very carefully
before beginning in earnest to eat is
too finical to be a pleasant table COM
panion.
Large pieces Of bread are broken
into smaller pieces before being but
tered and carried to the mouth.
Cake may be broken and eaten like
bread or crackers or it may be eaten
with fork.
Celery, olives, radishes, sailed nuts,
bon bons, preserved ginger and other
trif1es are eaten from the fingers, but
berries, melons, and grapefruit must
be eaten with q spoon. Bananas are
generally eaten with a fork, peaches,
apples and pears are peeled, quartered
and cut into small pieces and then
picked up with the fingers.
Grapes and small plums are eaten
from the fingers, and the stones or
skins taken into the hand and carried
to the plate, never dropped from the
lips. Prune seeds are best pressed
out with the spoon before the fruit is
eaten, and then laid to one side on
the plate.
Bones of fowl, game or chops must
not be taken in the finger, but green
corn may be eaten that way.
Artichokes, source of much grief to
the inexperienced diner, if served hot
or cold with sauce must be broken
apart, leaf by leaf, and the tip dipped
In the sauce, and eaten from the
fingers. The heart is cut up and eaten
with a fork.
Finger bowls are provided merely to
moisten the finger tips, not for a gen.
eral handwashing.
Your host who inquiries what portion
of poultry or game, raw meat or well
done you prefer will thank you for a
definite answer. If you really have no
preference say so definitely. Do not
enumerate various cuts that appeal to
you.

No Actresses Before 1856.
%. 1921. Western Newspaper Union.)

There are so many actresses today
that it is hard to believe there was a
time when there was none.
Yet. before 1856 A. d., no civilized
country could boast woman "star."
There was no law against it, but 1t
was considered disgrace for a woman
to appear on the stage, and woman's
parts, as in the Chinese theater of to-
day, were taken by boys or men.
Rose Coleman broke the Ice In 1856.
She appeared in 1.-THE Siege of Rhodes, "
and her success was so great that
scores of English women followed her
example, and France, Germany and
other nations followed suit in haste.

THE GIRL ON THE JOB
How to Succeed-How to Get
Ahead-How to Make Good
By JESSIE ROBERTS
EQUAL PAY

THERE is one big issue to settle In
i the world of business and labor,
the issue of equal pay for equal work
Evidences of injustice are found
everywhere. One woman held a posi-
ton in a college for which she was
paid 81 800 a year. She resigned be-
cause she needed a higher salary; a
man took the position. He gets a sal
airy of $4,000. The United States gov
eminent also pays women less than
men in many positions.
There are several reasons for this
state of affairs. The fact that women
were not voters is one of them. That
will now cease to be a deterrent.
Then, women do not insist on being
justly remunerated. Women are still
new i'm business. 1t is something Of
a wonder to them that they are con-
sidered worth salary at all. They ac-
cept what is offered and make no
kick when it is less than their brother
gets for a similar position.
Then, unfortunately, women often
do not give as good an account of
themselves as men. Many women do
as well as men, few do better, but
many do not do as well. 1t is these
who make 1t possible to exploit the
rest.
1t lies with women, finally, as to
whether or not they shall receive equal
pay. 1t should be demanded by every
woman. Also, the training Of women
for earning living must be improved,
and the standards of her work bet
tered.
