PAVING Fines As You Go.

Some useful things have OCCASION
ally come out Of the turmoil in Cen
trail Europe. One of the best plans
of which we have heard is new timing
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-
TEN has worked SO Well and has be
come SO popular that ii was extended
to traffic violations as Well 1t would
certainly be a great convenience if we
could adjust minor attractions such as
a smoking automobile, or failure to
keep automobile lamps lighted, with
out having recourse to the police or
traffic Scientific American.

Indian Chief Says All Signs
Point to Long, Severe Winter

Richmond, Va, Sept. a.
Chief Cook of the Pamunkey In-
dams, short distance from this
city, called on the game and fish
cry department a few days ago,
and when asked regarding the
coming winter ana the game
Situa ton, said that there would
be severe and long winter, de-
claring that the moss was double
thick on the trees, and that al
ready the squirrels are storing
nuts and acorns IN their nests and
hiding places. Chief Cook also
says that the deer and rabbits
are far more plentiful this year
than for long time, the deer be-
ing exceedingly numerous. Birds
too. are plentiful, and there ap-
pears to the Indians to be an
abundance of food for them. The
chief also AYERS that there are
plenty Of ducks on the waters
already; that they are not yet
due by three weeks, but they are
coming in large numbers.
The old Indian is positive that
Virginia will experience the se-
verest winter in years and that
it will be unusually long.

considerable work had been done in
the matter Of clearing away the &C
Cumulation Of debris that covered the

today as one of the greatest wonders
of the world, according to archeolo-
gists. This pyramid is three times as
large as the great Cheops pyramid
near Cairo, Egypt, and in its construc-
ton giant blocks of stone were used,
1t is 400 feet square at the bottom.
In height 1t is only 200 feet, and but

Jokes in Architecture

The builders of the old churches in
England were not so serious but that
they now and then perpetrated joke,
even in stone On more than one of
their creations they carved in relief
scene representing q monk preaching
solemnly to d flock Of geese. The same
humorous spirit is sometimes to he
detected in the domestic architecture
of early times. Here is an instance:
Just upon the boundaries Of Bed
fordshire and Hertfordshire formerly
stood a rambling old farmhouse. The
living room was long and low, and
on the center beam that went across
the ceiling was inscribed this legend:
If you are cold. 60 to HertfordShre.'
This seemingly inhospitahle invita-
tion was explained by the fact that
one-half Of the room was In one county
and one-half in the other. The fire
place was in HertfordShire.

HAD TO TIE THE YOUNGSTERS
We're Net to Be Trusted When Grand
mother : pped the Candi1s on
the Old Farm.

There was anothe. event that took
place once year in the big kitchen,
so much more exciting than spinning
that instead OF being allowed to sit at
liberty, with directions and cautions,
we had 10 be tied TO the table legs
with a clothes line or we would have
been covered with grease 1t was a
mysterious proceeding, which began
with my grandmother spreading a
space on the floor with Albany Jour
mails, and Ontario County Repositories
and Waterbury Americans. Then she
stirred the contents of brass kettle
that hung on the crane, and took up
the Waterbury Americans, cherished
souvenirs of her native town, and re-
placed them with ordinary Reposito-
res. Next she brought four kitchen
chairs and set them on the four cor
ners of the rectangle of newspapers
and connected them with two poles.
Then she stirred the brass kettle again
and looked at the clock Then she
proceeded to bring in a large number
of rods, each of which was looped with
six twisted wicks, and laid the ends
of the rods neatly on the poles. 1t
was then that we were tied up with
little free rope allowed for limited
range, before the brass kettle was
e1nptied into the copper boiler.
And now the fun began, when my
grandmother dipped the first two rods
of wicks into the boiler Of melted tai
low, and we danced as much as the
table legs would permit. 1t was two
rods at a time and then two more, over
and over again until the full-grown
candles hung in rows, slender at the
top and enlarging to thick, pointed
end at the bottom. 1t took some of
the JOY out Of our young lives when
the tin molds came and put an end to
candledipping,-W. Henry Shelton in
Scribner's.

Once a year elks shed their horns.
AS soon as the old ones are gone
new ones start. This process is re-
peated every year. the only difference
being that an upper prong appears
each time. Thus an elk's age can be
tGld by the prongs in one of his ant
lers.
The shedding is apparently a pain
less occurrence. AS an antler falls
off clot of blood forms at its root.
In the first six months of its growth
there is q soft skin over the antlers;
this is known as the velvet. AS long
as the velvet is there the antlers re-
main somewhat soft and sensitive,
but when the velvet peels off the
antlers become hard and dry up, and
they lose all feeling.

The Cliff pwelIers.

CHf-dwelIers is the name Of race
Of Indians. formerly living in the cliffs
bordering on the valleys of the Rio
Grande and Rio Colorado. Their homes
were built in the receSSeS of the cliffs
lit a height .4fteu Of several hundred
foot from tile ground, and at the pres
ent time seemingly inaccessible, us the
former paths that led to them nearly
all have been destroyed by the crum-
bling away Of tile rocks. The dwellings
sometimes consisted of many rooms,
and in some eases were two, or more,
stories high, hewn in the rock, with
wooden lintels in the doors and Win
doWs, which We're probably closed
with skins or blankets. The walls were
finished with a plaster Of clay. How
the inhabitants subsisted IS not known,
but probably mainly by hunting and
fishing, as the soil about these locali-
ties was barren. The Pueblo Indians,
who still are found in that section,
are thought to be descendants of the
clitf-dwellers They possess consider
able skill in making articles of pot
terry and the like.

Every woman knows that she can

With the person who thinks about
the things he says, this much-used ex
preston must hit a snag' every time
it Is used For exception cannot prove
a rule. Indeed, every bona fide ex
ception weakens a rule.
1t is a change in the connotation
of saying Prove all things" and so
responsible for its present misuse.
For in the early days of the English
language prove" meant test" as
when st. Paul said, prove all things"
And 50 when it was said that the ex
ception proves" the rule there was
nothing illogical about it. Exceptions
do put a rule TO test. Either they
soon vttiate the rule or the rule is
strong enough to bring them within
its mandate.

Paint Kitchen Shelves.

Never use shelf paper on kitchen
or any other sort Of shelves. EX-
perts on household science say it
is a filth catcher and one Of the best
invitations to insects to inhabit your
closets. The best possible way to
finish your shelves is to paint them
and then finish with q coat of enamel.
This gives them hard, smooth finish,
which you can wipe off with damp
cloth when you choose. If you want a
more decorative effect than you think
you can produce with pure white
shelves, select some sort of colored
enamel and paint. \ bright light blue
would be attractive, or you might find
soft green to your liking.
