GOT ITS NAME FROM STREAM
How New York's Famous "Malden
Lane" Received Nomenclature
That ls World Famous.

Maiden lane, the home of the jew
efry and diamond business in New
York, and known over the world for
that fact. received It's name before it
was a street. 1t took it from very
pretty little stream that ran across
that part Of the city. 1t was the Gus
tom In that day, before the time of
wringers and washing machines, for
the young women to do the family
washing.
The clothes were carried here and
the day spent in cleansing them in
what is described as ripping brook.
Some of the men who have dug into
New York's early history profess to
have discovered that it was also
place where the young men of the
time repaired, being pretty certain Of
getting a chance to talk with the girls.
The stream was outside the city as
1t existed at that time most Of it be-
ing behind the big wooden wall that
Peter Stuyvesant had built, so that
in order to get to Maiden lane 1t was
necessary to go out through the gate
with the family wash. There Is moth
ing to show that Monday vas then
the popular washday with families, as
1t Is now and was later But 1t Is
likely the Dutch began to get things
to rights early In the week, and IL

"Hussy"i is a corruption of "huswife,"

Reversing Speech.

A curious Photographic instrument
was invented by Pouisen, capable OF re-
versing the sounds Of word or sen
tence. A steel plano wire, carried on
two spoOls, passes between the poles
of a small electromagnet so connected
with telephone transmitter that spo-
ken words are magnetically recorded
on the moving wire and reproduced In
q receiving instrument When the mo
ton Of the wire Is direct, the words are
heard as In ordinary conversation, but
II the motion is reversed, the sounds
come to the ear In reverse order, like

the order In which the reversed sounds
strike the ear, however, not only must

word be reversed but each letter must
itself be reversed from right to left, as
when reflected In mirror.-Christian

HOW

Il OW -
DEATH VALLEY vOYAGERS
HAVE LOST THEIR LIVES.
Death valley has q reputation
for destroying the hopes of man
largely because man Is by ma
ture a selfish being, according
to John Stanton Of Boise City,
Okla. who claims that most Of
the human beings who perish in
that arid tract Of territory owe
their destruction to the individ-
uals who go before them.
death valley presents a pic
ture of the two sides of human
nature" said Mr.. Stanton. ut
shows on one side the good, the
beautiful and the true, while on
the other hand 1t depicts the
most despicable trait In human
lty-self1shness. For instance,
one Of the reasons why most of
the voyagers ip Death valley
come to grief is because they
cannot find water holes. There
are men who know where these
water holes are-men who have
discovered them and men who
erect signs to point the way to
them. But after these real hui
man beings have gone to all the
trouble of erecting the signs,
putting directions on them as
best they can, the selfish trav-
elers come along and, needing
the signs for firewood, destroy
them.
Just for the satisfaction of
moment, the utility that
comes from a kindling fire
which could be built with a lit
tie more effort If the parties
were to search for the flrewood
without using the guideposts,
some people jeopardize the lives
OF those who follow them.
That Is the story Of Death valley.
The place has many tragedies to
its record, but one-half If not
more Of them could have been
averted II human nature had
Kept itself In control; If selfish
ness were not such a strong
trait. Death valley isn't half
so dangerous to mankind as
these men"

During 1920 three distinct leaf

two weeks. Further trouble was not
reported until the middle Of July
about one week after a severe rain
and wind storm. At that time Wild
ERE and angular leaf spot both caus-
ed heavy losses in several fields in
which the tobacco was making very
rapid growth. Practically no injury
was caused on small tobacco at this
time.
In August. following a rainy per-
iod. both diseases spread rapidly and
caused serious losses throughout the
Burley section. the circular states.
In the latter part Of August the dis
eases spread rapidly in the dark
section. From this time on they
continued TO cause serious losses fol-
lowing every rain storm where wind
was present
As far as could be learned in in
vcstigations conducted by Or. Val

Gus disease in the Burley district in
1920. Angular leaf-spot appeared
to be quite well known TO many
growers who called il rust" Seri-
Gus losses have been caused in isolat-

least 90 years, the loss Of entire
crops being reported in some cases.
