ROCKVILLE. MARYLAND FRIDAY MORNING. DECEMBER Is 1891
"J0AN' VICTIM OF INTRIGUE
French Bishop Said to Have Been the
Tool in the Hands Of the
Duke Of Bedford.

Pierre Cauchon, bishop Of Beauyais,
who was ambitious to become arch
bishop of Rouen, framed" Joan of
Arc and caused her to be burned at
the stake, according to Henry w.
Harris, Jr., writing In the Boston
Globe.
The untutored maid who had
spurred the French on to victory, just
as England's hordes appeared to have
overrun the country, was captured
by the duke of Burgundy, rebel
against the king Of France, and he
sold her to the duke of Bedford, regent
for Henry vi, the boy king of Eng
land, for $4,000.
Bedford sought to discredit Joan Of
Arc to her people, hoping in this way
to upset the coronation of King
Charles VII of France, and gain the
throne for the British king. Bishop
Cauchon, who was seeking Britain's
aid at Rome, was chosen as the tool.
He 1t was who formed the court which
tried the maid and convicted her Of
heresy. She was ordered to be burned,
but the sentence was committed to
life Imprisonment on condition that
she quit wearing pages costume,
wear women's garb instead, and sign
paper, or rather put cross to 1t,
as she couldn't read or write. She
did so. The paper was "confes-
sion" Of all the framed-up charges.
Later she was tricked into breakAg
her vow and was practically forced
to wear the pages clothes again.
Then she was discovered" in this
garb, accused Of breaking her vow and
ordered burned at the stake.

Some useful things have OCCASION

trail Europe. One of the best plans
of which we have heard is Anew fining
system which is used in Prague. The
police carry receipts for fines for
various sums in their pockets, and
present them for Immediate payment
TO hilarious citizens who break the
peace by singing or playing on mu-
steal Instruments on the streets at the
wrong time. or where the volume OF
harmony is too great. This tends to
allow the citizens Of this old city TO
get some much needed rest. This sys-

oders In Apartments.

There are times in the city dwelling.
especially in an apartment, when just
before the arrival of guests the hostess
is conscious Of deadly odor stealing
DER the scene.
Instead of relying on the incense
burner which must be carried from
room to room in such an emergency
and which often sends out only feet
ing fragrance. ii is good plan to keep
on hand little oil of cinnamon. Fill
a shallow vessel with water and place
1t on the stove When 1t hollis pat in
a teaspoonfui of the cinnamon oil A
spicy odor will soon fill the rooms The
water should simmer slowly, but not
boil violently. after the oil is added.

result. IL is rather amusing to keep

MOVIE TOWN ADS HOUSING
Fake Belgian Village, az q Little More

Families.

Even the movies have their utili-
tartan uses. il seems. In some sections
OF the country they seem in fair way
to help solve our housing problems 1t
least they did so In a Westchester
town not long ago.
The scene-the movie scene. that Is
was a Belgian village. and with the
accustomed profiigacy of the picture
producers the entire village must needs
be built. The intent and purpose OF
the director mas TO build the houses OF
board and papier-maehe. and then de-
stroy them All when tile picture watts
completed Certain residents OF the
town, however, were possessed With
foresight. says the New York Sun. The
township was suffering from building
restriction. and some one figured than
the movie men could build their VII
lage of slightly more substantial ina-
terial ut a comparatively little In
creased cost. The proposition was put
TO the director. who agreed TO let the
town supply him with materials and
labor on a proportionate basis.
AS a result the town has added near
~ twenty new houses and twenty new
families have moved in. paying the
township only slightly more than the
property was worth. The township
taxes the houses, the housing situation
Is relieved, the movie men have van
ished and everybody is happy.

SILK STOCKINGS NEED
CAREFUL HANDLING

One of the heaviest items of ex-
pense in the wardrobe of the modern
girl or woman is her stockings. These
are almost invariably of silk. for the
fine cotton ones are nearly impossible
TO obtain and quite as expensive as
silk incidentally. too, they wear at
least twice as long).
The way you treat silk stockings
las a lot more 10 do with the way
they wear than has their original
price-usually. Sometimes, of course,
they are just such a poor quality that
they aren't worth taking care of. But
usually care tells more with silk
stockings than it dies with almost
anything else.
To begin with. never let silk stock
ings lie soiled for week They rot,
once moisture has rermeated them.
The thing 10 do is TO wash them out
as soon as you take them on. Of
course. this is usually too much trou-
BILE Nevertheless. it is the thing to
do. And of course they shouldn't be
worn more than a day IT a time-no
more than day without washing,
that means.
Furthermore. it is said by a woman
who wears her silk stockings longer
than most OF us. do that they should
be washed in cold water. and that
no soap should be used This seems
rather strenuous treatment But in
Aer case 81 least it works out well,
md perhaps il is the best way to do.
mother woman who is never trou-
blcd with runs in the legs OF her silk
stos rings finds that stitching a mar
row piece OF black silk inside the
stock ng at the top prevents the runs
from coming. The garter fastening
goes through the extra thickness made
by this silk-which. by the way. should
be thin silk-and so does not pierce
the fabric of the stocking.

THE THIN GRAY LINE

Announcement from Savannah.
Ca. that If the Confederate states
veterans hold a reunion IN 1923
in that city, it will. be the last
gathering OF the men, now dwin-
died To a thin gray line" who
fought with Lee and Jackson and
Longstreet. has a,toucll OF the pa
thetic. The thin blue line" is
seen in public somewhere each
year. but the relative numerical
weakness OF the men who wore
the gray is against their chance
TO present again in public gath
erings the grandeur OF their or
ganization. There viii be no re-
union this year. which seems t.
be interpreted as meaning that !
they are brought together agair
it will be for the last time.
The men who wore the gray in
that memorable strife which
drenched the south with blood
and filled the hearts of the people
with bitterness are historic fig
ures, with the men who wore the
blue. The active generation
knows OF them mainly through
the reading of history. The thin
little line which today is all that
is left of the gallant hosts that
went into battle behind Lee and
"Old Jack" give the world per-
feet picture of the strength OF
human character. urged by mo-
tives that were high.
Men never fought more brave
ly, with more desperation, with
less selfishness, than the veterans
OF the Confederacy. Had they
thought more of themselves and
less of the impulses that urged
them forward, that gallant gray
arm never could have lasted as .
fighting force for four discourag
ing years. What cherished re-
membrane it would be If they
could continue their reunions sc
long as there are two bent old
men to represent the thousands
who are gone. And how heroic
the last warrior would be to the,

New Zealand Pageant Lesson.

The pageant has apparently taken
its place in the educational methods
of New Zealand, judging by the sue
cessful enactment of the hattie of
Oraku on the very ground where Rev.;
Maniapoto hurled his defiance at the
Pakeha, or white men; Ka whawhai
tonu matoui! eve will fight on for ever
and ever.)
Dressed to represent the Maori
tribesmen, school children from TIE
Awamutu bravely defended the native
Pa, until the white troops, also young
New Zealanders. drove them away in
rout. Before the charging troops
could reach the spot where their FIRE
had mown down the ''Maoris," the
latter introduced an unrehearsed effect
by jumping to their feet and fleeing
after their comrades.

Postmaster General Hays call

the postal service emphasizes
that the polite amenities discreet
ly employed in business act as 4
lubricant and contribute to divi-
dends of satisfaction in which all
concerned share. Long ago the
ira ditional steamboat mates
method OF reasoning with his
roustabout help went into the dis
card as a factor in business. The
reaction tended iii some eases to 4
fawning sycophancy which prov
ed equally unsatisfactory in
bringing desired results. What is
desired is that happy iaean
in which there shall be mutual
constituencies by the parties to
transaction.
No matter what the relation
ships between individuals, the
dispatch of business is facilitated
by the exercise of an agreeable
disposition on the part OF all. A
firm character may exist behind a
sunny countenance velvety-
voice does not necessarily denote
'softness" of which advantage
may be taken. A friendly manner
creates friendliness 1t invites con-
fidence and trust which fortify in
vested capital as nothing else can.
All this makes for prosperity in
which buyers and sellers share.
The larger the business the less
the boss comes into contact with
his patrons. His prosperity de-
ponds in very large degree upon
the impression which the help
makes on the trade" Disagree
