Race of Toothless Men in india.

In the Hindu Anil community of
Hyderabad Sind, in India there has
been found type Of men who have
no teeth. These men are further
characterized by a bald head and an
extreme SensitiveneSS to heat. They
are known as 4'Bhudas,' which lit
orally means "toothless." The fol-
lowing facts have been learned about
them:
When such man Ga "Bhuda') mar
ries a normal girl having both par
ents free from these defects, all the
children, both male and female, are
apparently normal-that is to say, ap-
parently free from the defect
When the females marry normal
males, their female children are ap-
parently normal, while the male chill
dren are "Bhudas"
No case is known in which a tooth
less man has married the daughter of
a "Bhuda.''

THE LIFE OF GAS NANTES
Illuminating Device Should Last 1000
Burning Hours-May Be Destroyed
in Few Moments.

The following facts about gas man.
ties are taken from Gas Logic, the
house organ of the biggest gas company
In New York.
"A good gas mantle should last from
800 to 800 or even 1000 burning hours.
"Breakage, however, is not always
due to poor mantle quality. Turning
the gas off and on and the slight ex-
plosion that sometimes occurs when
1t is lighted is highly destructive Of
manties. A mantle which, burning
steadily, might last for several thou
sand hours, may be destroyed in few
minutes by rough handling or in few
hours by unusual but unavoidable wear
and tear.
initial candle power is that meas
ured when the mantle is first lighted.
1t is extremely high in cheap and in
ferior nantes. But soon, often with
in a few minutes, the brilliancy of the
light fades, never to be regained. The
intensity of this initial light is a snare
into which the unwary and unwise fire.
quenty fall in purchasing cheap man
ties
Sustained candle power is the meas
ure of light given out by a mantle
over a long period, and is, of course, the
real test of a good mantle. The high
class mantle may not have an initial
candle power equal to that of cheap
er substitute, but in the long test it's
superiority is demonstrated
Some OF the gas companies are now
selling nantes with a guarantee of
at least 30 days service

Windows Easily Broken by Blasts,

Explosions of powder or other SINH
lar materials often are very destruc-
tive to windows, even If they are at
great distance from the point of ex-
plosion. When an explosion occurs air
waves are thrown off with great VIC
lence. Sometimes these air waves are
thrown back with such violence that
buildings in the immediate vicinity of
the explosion are destroyed.
The force of the air waves acts in
all directions at the same time and
with equal force. Very often these air
waves are thrown for great distances
and, while the houses in its path are
strong enough to resist their violence,
the windows are shattered because
they cannot withstand the high pres
sure of air.-Milwaukee Sentinel.

FEW DIVERSIONS IN JAPAN
Youngsters Work Hard in School, and
That Is Probably Their Lies
Happest Period.

Almost all forms of recreation
are forbidden to the Japanese school
boy. He is under social or economic
bans that restrict his play for long
periods to such dull paStimes as keep
ing a diary, writing and collecting
postal cards and attending a young
mems club-which has far less in.
teresting functions than "a club in
America, remarks the Detroit News.
Some of the more fortunate Japa-
nese schoolboys may be permitted to
make a walking trip during vacation,
For them the trip is memorable adj
venture The annual Opening of the
River festival gives opportunity to
watch the fireworks and lighted boats
on the Sumida. In the evening he sits
ian his room, gazing from a window
or playing on flute that costs 10 or
Is cents. Lantern professions, by
which the Japanese celebrate their
many special days, are another diver
sion.
This has resulted in calling school
days the period of "bitter learning
regarded in later life as the students
happiest time, because when he leaves
school he marries a girl in whose Sc
lection he has no word, and must earn
his living with whatever tools are Civ

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 a
scene representing a monk preaching
solemnly to a flock of geese. The same
humorous spirit is sometimes to be
detected in the domestic architecture
of early times Here is an instance:
Just upon the boundaries of Bed
fordshire and Hertfordshire formerly
stood rambling old farmhouse. The
living room was long and low, and
on the center beam that went across
the ceiling was inscribed this legend
eff you are cold, go to Hertfordshire. y
This seemingly inhospitable invita-
ton 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.

BELIEVE THEY HOODWINK GOD
Chinese Seemingly Have Little Re-
spect for the intellectually
of Their Deities.

One of the strangeSt things about
the religion Of the Chinese is the rev.
erence they hold for their gods, de-
spite the belief that the gods are gull
lible as q man of inferior intellect
Instead of attrfbuting infallibility to
the deities they worship, as all other
races have done, the Chinese resort to
tricks Of childish simplicity and are
sure they have deceived the god.
Usually the tricks employed are to
make sure the god does not betray
the sins of a Chinese to the higher
deities. An amazing example is the
treatment of the kitchen god just
before he is to start on one of his
periodic visits to heaven. This trip
is limited, because the kitchen god
may be absent only seven days.
The householder thinks he must pre-
vent the god from reciting his sins to
the deities So it is the general Gus
tom, before the god is to depart on
the seven days absence, to prepare
large hollow balls of the gods favorite
candy. The kitchen deity has a very
small throat When the candy, of
which he is extremely fond, is placed
before him, the Chinese say the god
stuffs his mouth with it, being too
gluttonous TO leave any behind. His
small throat prevents swallowing the
before the ruling deities he is unable
to talk, and the householder sins
remain q secret.

THERE is NOTHING QUAINTER
Gray Sea- own Puzzled as to Where
Streets Will Lead.

A rough village of huts clamDed
down to the rocks and hugging it's fine
harbor, such was Marhlehead for
many years. The huts grew bigger
and finer, the narrow foOtways broad
ened a triie, but kept the devious
turns and abrupt ups and downs with
which they began-so abrupt that
even today many a Marblehead lane
has to resort to steps to get itself and
it's traveller where it would go. =
There is nothing quainter to be
found in our country than this gray
sea-town With it's incredibly tangled
streets. Never does a stranger know
where he will end when he sets forth
to follow one of them Sister and /
found ourselves walking briskly away
from the place we wanted to go to
oftener than not. Luckily the water
exists, for when you strike it you have
q chance to take new bearings, and
in time we got so that we could lay
a course by the tower Of Abbott hall,
which dominates the entire village
We would climb up to it to get
fresh start, and usually found that we
were approaching it from another
direction than the one we imagined
1t was a sort Of Alice in Wonderland

where you knew you shouldn't in
order to get where you wanted to
be.-4Old Seaport Towns" Hildegarde

HAD TO TIE THE YOUNGSTERS
Were Not to Be Trusted When Graho-
mother Dipped the Candies on
the Old Farm.

There was another event that TOOK
place once a year in the big kltcneh'
so much more exciting than spinning
that instead of being allowed to SIT al
liberty, with directions and cautions
we had to be tied to the table legs
with a clothes line or we would have
been covered with grease 1t was
mysterious proceeding, which began
with my grandmother spreading
space on the floor with Albany Jour
mails, and Ontario County Repositories
and Waterbury Americans. Then she
stirred the contents of brass kettie
that hung on the crane, and took up
the Waterbury Americans, cherished
souvenirs of her native town. and re-
placed them with ordinary Reposito-
ries. 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
L
six twisted wicks, and laid the ends
of the rods neatly on the poles 1t
was then that we were tied up with
a little free rope allowed for limited
range, before the brass kettle was
emptied into the copper boiler.
And now the fun began, when my
grandmother dipped the first two rods
of wicls into the boiler of melted tai
low, and we danced as much as the
table legs would permit. It was two
rods at 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
candle-dipping-- Henry shelton in

Steel Barrels,

If the statements of the makers are
well founded, it is probable that steel
barrels will eventually take the place
of wooden ones. The steel barrel is
composed OF slaves Of that material
locked together by an ingenious de-
vice; the hoops and heads are also Of
steel. 1t is claimed that the steel bar
rel is more durable and more compact
than the wooden one AS 1t is said
to be lighter and cheaper, it has al
ready had favor in various quarters.
About 800, 100000 barrels are needed
annually, in normal times, to supply
the demand in the United States.
Flour mills viii use about 100000,
the sugar industry 100000, and the
cement industry 100000.

Mother of BaIloonina.

A washerwoman was the mother OF
ballooning and it all started in France
about 1880 The washerwoman
wished to dry a skirt more rapidly
than could be accomplished by air and
sunshine, so she rugged it up over the
fireplace. The hot air soon dried the
cloth and the woman was astOnished
to see it round out into ball and
float up to the ceiling. A neighbor
named Montgolfier saw the strange
occurrence and it gave him the idea

How Man Was Made.

How the Earthmaker, making man
from bits of clay, first did not bake
him long enough and he came out
white, and secondly baked him too
long and he came out black, and
thirdly baked him just right and he
came out red, is the Cree Indians
explanation of the creation of the
races of man. This and twenty-four
other Indian myths are contained in
a collection of Indian lore recently
compiled by Charles f. Brown, cura-
tor of the Wisconsin State Historical
museum at Madison.

Elk Sheds AntIers Yearly.

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
told by the prongs in one of his ant
lers.
The shedding is apparently pain:
less occurrence. As an antler falls
off a clot of blood forms at it's root.
In the first six months of its growth
there is 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.
