Fall

Six-year- Anna Poches walked out on a railroad track at Sioux City, Iowa Train rushed along. Locomo- tive hit her. She escaped with a few bruises, because. like all children, she kept her body limp instead of stiffen- ing it when struck.
 That is the secret of why circus and vaudeville tumblers in knockout acts can take hard falls without in jury.
 If you ever fall from a ladder or window, let your muscles. joints and whole body go limp. That probably will keep you from breaking bones It may save your life.

Acutious incident at the principal opera house
of Rome is reported. During the presentation
OF an opera the orchestra affected five minutes

performance, setting their will against his in the
matter of conceding an encore to the public
The opera given was Madame Butterfly" and
after the singer Pavoni had rendered the "Un Bel

Singer and conductor were willing to oblige the
audience, but the orchestra laid down their in

appeals and threats of the public. To put an end
to the resulting uproar and confusion, the con-
ductor ordered piano to he brought on the stage

SOME ANCIENT RECIPES

Some of the bellies of 1900 were troubled with
freckles just as the young women, some of them,
of 1921 are. Yes, and what did the belle Of 1900
do about them? Very simple. She turned to a
page in "A Book of Phsickc and Chirurgery,'
and when she found the paragraph, "To Take
Away Freckles," she followed it: "Take the
blood of hare, anoint them (the freckles) with
it, and it will do them away" Easy.
In this wonderful book may be found how ITO
make an aching tooth fall out" 1t advises one
to "take wheat meal and mix with the milk of a
herb called splu,ge, and make paste, put that
in the cavity and the tooth will fall out."
For headache, the advise is "Set dish or plat
ter Of lynne upon the bare head filled with water,
put an ounce and half or two ounces of melten
lead therein, while ye hath it upon thy head, and
that will help wonderfully" .....
This quaint Englishman means, Of course, to
fill the "tynnc" and not the "bare head' with
water-but little slip like that doesn't mean
anything, if the cure does the business.
1t must have been serious thing to have had
flcckles, toOthachc all the same time, in those
days. ..:'. ....

CHURCH MOVIES.

Conservative folks shake their heads when
they hear Of the adoption OF the movie by various
churches In some churches the movie is used
as an aid to the Sunday sermon In others it
il employed in Sunday school work. slft:
In these churches it is realized that people will
20 to movies at the expense of church at.
tendance-and that, therefore, the church we'll
can make use Of films for its own good ends.
But, after all, there is nothing new in the use
Of pictures for religious instruction. ~h
Jesus spoke in parallels es-story pictures of the
lessons he desired to convey The New Testa-
ment is series of such stories appealing as
much to the imaginations Of modern men as they
did to the primitive folks of jesus time. II.
Sculpture and painting were the handmade.
ems of the church from earliest times. In fact,
the old masters scarcely employed their art for
any purpose other than to exalt the faith.
In accepting the movie, churches are merely
adopting the newest form of pictorial art to an
age-old purpose. And approval of movies by
churches should make for better and cleaner
pictures.
