KENTUCKY GRASS A MYSTERY

The origin of the blue grass in Ken
lucky is an open question. Some say
that il was raised to some extent in
Virginia before being brought to Ken
lucky; other stories relate that this
aristocrat among the grasses was
found in Kentucky by Boone and 9TH
er early settlers. Henry Clay is said
to have remarked, Kentucky owes a
lasting debt of gratitude to Indiana
II was from her soil that we got our
blue grass" Whatever its origin, this
noble grass has had an important
place in the agricultural development
of the region. Hardy, nourishing and
not to be cholled out by weeds, the blue
grass has found favor from Europe TO
the Southern Seas, especially where
lands are rich and a high type of agri-
culture is practiced.
Blue grass seed is shipped annually
from Lexington to far off Australia
and Japan, to Hawaii and many South
American countries, to England, Scot
land and many countries on the con-
tinent Eighty-five to 80 per cent of
the worlds output is shipped from Ken
tucky.-Detroit News.

MARIONETTES-THE
BY Diuna Barnes

NEW YORK-One of the newest
things in the world, and one of the old
est, is the marionette-and the very
the marionette and its theater,-for. as
Mrs. Helen Joseph says, they may he
made by any child in any home"
Mrs Joseph's Book of Marionettos,"
gives a chapter on children and the
puppet as a means to imaginative de-
velopment. She points out that IN
every child's heart there is the desire
of the Creator" the urge that forces
children into mischief 1t is the same
thing that makes of children master
mimics.
Undirected Energy
. Energy that is not directed always
takes the form of mischief but" says
Mrs. Joseph, give them a bit of col
ored cloth or paper, scissors, cardboard
and a few directions and almost in
stinctively, as one might say, puppets
are the outcome
Somehow" she goes on to say.
there is a something in marionettes
which appeals to a child in a way such
as no actor or acting of the legitimate
kird can call forth There is a nys-
terry about dolls, and an awe in them
that comes nearer the awe of the fairy
tale"
To prove this statement Mrs. Joseph
points out that all one has to do is to
sec alice in Wonderland" played ny
people, and then see it played by pup
ipets--the difference is miraculous. An
actor cannot give the wonder and the
ldre and the mystery of Alice" as the
doll can.
There is something too human IN
the human touch she says
Educational Value
r Nearly all men who have later il
life turned to the drama and to IRA
matte writing, in their childhood loved
and played with marionettes. Goethe
said that marionettes inspired Faust.
Indeed the puppet may boast of having
delighted child geniuses of every coun-
try and of having inspired their Later
Yeas,
Mrs. Joseph emphasizes the educa-
tional value of puppets. She would
have shows in schools, or, better. IN

Utc the Popular Black and White
Beauty Treatment

You should not use anything
that hides any faded, pimply,
blotchy condition of your skin.
Such applications last only a
few hours, and are injurious to
the delicate skin texture.
Black and White Ointment

draws to the surface impurities
of the skin and removes them
without irritation. A small por-
ton applied each night for a
short while will make your
skin soft and smooth.
Black and White Soap must

cleanse the pores of all impure
ties, which daily accumulate
and cause blackheads and pin-

MADE BRAINS AID HIS HANDS

Frank Hedley general manager of
the Interborough Street Railway COM
pany gets $4,000 a year from the
Interborough and additional salaries
of $4,000, to say nothing of -substan-
tial royalties from his various patents.
He is an Englishman of mechanical
bent, who came here in his youth with
a kit of tools, which stood him in as
good stead as the cat of one R. Whit
ungton, who became the lord mayor
of London.
Young Hedley had a grandfather
who built a locomotive, but left no es-
tate that anybody could notice. On his
arrival in American he got a job as
a repair man in the shops of the Erie
railroad in Jersey City and began at
once to earn a great deal more than
he was paid for doing. This attract
ed the attention of his superiors and
they were still more struck by the new
ways he suggested of doing old things.
The inventive mind of Frank Hedley
carried him further when he went with
the Manhattan Elevated railroad as a
foreman and later became master me
chanic with the Kings County Elevat-
ed in Brooklyn. His abilities caught
the notice of Charles T. Yerkes and
resulted in MIR. Hedley going to Chi
cago, where he was at first superin-
tendent of motive power for the Lake
I Street Elevated and then consulting
engineer of the Northwestern E1eNat-
ed in the Windy City.
When the subway was being put
into commission in New York the Off
Gals of the older system remem bered
