European Paper Money.

In every European country the war
produced a. flood of paper money.
With the exception Of Great Britain,
great. issues were. made everywhere
Of notes Of very low value. The more
desperate the situation, the more the
recourse to the printing press. In
Germany, especially, cities and small
towns. business firms and prisoners
camps issued emergency money, most

(Scheine). Many Of these notes have
high artistic value, due partly to the
artists and partly to the desire to
make the notes serve a propaganda
purpose, and to be attractive general
~, as well as incapable of fraudulent
imitation. The interest. and beauty
of these notes are so we'll recognized
that a literature on the subject has
grown up, collectors and dealers have
appeared, and society and an exhibit
ton have already drawn attention to
the subject, -Internatioflal Studio.

NOT MODELS OF CONSTANCY
Observer Has Found That House.
Wrens Occasionally Figure in
Birds "Divorce Court"

Little birds in their nests agree"
SO likewise do their parents, presum-
ably. But there has been much specu-
lation as to whether pairs of birds,
once married, do or do not perpetuate
the welded relation from year to year.
How about the hOuse-Wren? 1t is a
gentle and virtuOus bird, almost SEMI
domesticated. as one might say, mas
much as it customarily builds it's nest
in or about human habitatiOns. People
who have watched the habits of house.
wrens have often been heard to say
that they were sure the same pairs re-
turned to the same nesting places sea-
son after season. They were pro-
claimed as models of marital con-
stancy.
However, Mr. S. Prentiss Baldwin of
Cleveland, who for many years has
made the trapping and banding of
birds his special hobby (afterward re-
leasing them to be subsequently re-
trapped perhaps and identitieO, has
found that hOuse-wrens are no more re-
liable in their cOnjugal relations than
folks. In some instances these relu-
tons are perpetuated from season to
season; but often it happens that a
hOuse-wren, male or female, INDUCES
in violent Irritation, even making "a
bluff at starting housekeeping, and
then making final choice of another
mate. Divorces occur. "A gentleman
hOuse-wren may marry, rear a family
and then leave his wife, going off with
another lady hOuse-wren and setting up
an establishment with her. Where
upon there is nothing for the deserted
female to do but get another husband.

EGGS The cREM0NA SECRET?
Idea Put Forward That YoIks ard
seeswax Were Used in Filters
Of Old Violins.

N: G. Holcomb, mystical instrument
maker Of Norwalk, Ohio, believes he
is making rapid advances In his efforts;
to discover the secret Of the fine
mellow tone Of the Cremona violins.
Musicians for years have, wondered
why many old Italian: violins 3appar.
emily made in. a slipshod manner:
should produce such clear Sounds.
Holcomb believes that the lost secret
had to do mainly with: tile filler and.
varnish. Not long ago. BE- was In
formed that a careful chemical analysis
had been made. of. some Of the finish
on an old violin owned in Battle Creek,
Mich. %s3}lE M. =, a., s.,
- This examination disclosed the fact
that, before the varnish was applied,
the wood was filled evidently with the
yolk Of an egg. and Deeswax. Profiting
by this information, Holcomb rubbed
these substances into the raw wood Of
a new violin before applying the var.
nish. The results were surprising, the
instrument producing tone that Is
usually associated with age.
Holcomb, by using tops of old ia
bles and other furniture, obtains ma
pie wood one. hundred years or more
old. Through microscope it can be
seen that in maple properly aged the
cells are devoid. of the sap and resin
that makes improperly seasoned wood
unsatisfactory.
HOlcOmb has found out that, If var
nish is applied to a violin before a
proper filler has been used, the varnish
penetrates the cells Of the wood and
Injuries the tone.

Photoaraphs BoreaIis.

A Norwegian scientist, NJ. Stormer,
was able to have photographed, at sew
eral points in his country, the aurora
borealis seen last May, which upset
telegraph lines and cables and proyid-
ed n gorgeous display in many parts OF
the world. Comparing these photo.
graphs at the same timer he has scalcu,
lated the height at which this aurora
borealis was spread forth-namely.
1921 miles. Thus, since the aurora
borealis is by proof an electrical illumi-
nation Of the rarefied air gases, the
earth's atmosphere extends at least
that distance above the earths surface.

Much Money Spent for Coal.

One federal building In Wall street,
New York, now holds gold coin and
bullion having "a value ssof s1,5oo,ooo,-
600. This is one fifth ofFall the gold
that has been produced in the world
since the beginning Of civilization.
Never before has so much of the pre-
cious yellow metal been collected in one
place ut one time. But great as is
this enormous treasure which lies in

NO LONGER "CLINGING VINE"
Athletics and Healthy Outdoor Life
Have Increased the Weight Of
q Modern Woman. -

They're building 'em bigger. Dress
makers say so, corsetieres agree
there's something in it, and now along
comes cold, calculating science to ex-
plain why women weigh more than
they ever did before.
Women are no fatter, say the physi-
cal culture experts. They're simply
larger and here's the reason: The
women of today are one and half
inches taller as a class than 40 years
ago. Their chests are larger, their
waistlines have widened. Their mus
clesL have: hardened. AL this makes
them weigh more. S, =. *, T.: ~.
The changes according to those
who have made a study Of the subject,
are simple enough to explain. Women,
especially during the last 20 years
or so, gradually have been convert
ed from the clinging vine to. robust
persons who are proud rather than
ashamed Of the physical feats they can
accomplish. Participation in sports
has turned the trick.
Time was" explained William Herr
mann, a physical training expert Of
Philadelphia, "when a woman thought
vigorous use of the body and its mus
cles was unladylike. All that has
changed, of course, and the gradual
participation Of women in sports and
various forms of exercise actually has
brought about change in her height
and her figure. The change in height
is not simply case Of athletics hav-
ing taught woman to stand straight
er. It is an actual change that can
be measured" ,~-

No Lead in Lead Pencil,

The word pencil originally meant a

use under the same name, but it now
chiefly denotes the black-lead wood

pencil Is misnomer, because there
Is no lead about It. The case is wood
or paper, and the substance that makes

Cancer of the Toe-NaiI.

One of the rarest diseases known Is
cancer of the nail, only four cases be-
Ing on record. The most recent one
is described by DR.. Carlos Chagas Of
the medical college of Beilo Bello
Horizonte, Brazil. 1t is that Of a Ia
borer, aged sixty, who had it on the
nail Of his right great toe. The toe
was amputated and the man, appar-
emily cured, disappeared. The toe was
examined microscopically and con.
firmed the diagnosis.

PREMIER HUGHES
REGRET UNECHOED
Administration Gratified at
Failure to Bring Prelimi-
nary Farley.

The Washington government does
not share regret with Premier
Hughes, Of Australia. because no
preliminary conference on disarma-
rrent and Pacific questions Is to be
held.
Although respecting the views OF
Premier Hughes on the matter
Washington officials are not only
falling TO regret the failure to de-
velop a preliminary conference. but
are gratified that none will be held.
because they believe II might prove
disastrous to the success Of the in
ternational conference and Its great
purpose, the Limitation Of world
armaments.
When attention of administration
leaders was called to Premier
Hughes interview in London, In
which teh Australian spoke OF his
profound regret that this governs
ment had not seen its way clear to
hold the suggested preliminary con-
ference" they readily explained
why they could not sympathize with
his views.
In the first place a preliminary
conference would. in the opinion OF
American leaders. create suspicion
in the minds of people throughout
the world that the nations par.
ticipating in it were attempting to
"conk up" some arrangement which
might be unfair to nations not in
vited to participate In the star
chamber session. The suggested
preliminary parley was not intended
to. include representatives OF all
the MOWERS invited to attend the
major conference. For that reason
primarily the United States thought
that 1t would be unwise.
In the second place, oficials here
took the view that II In q pre-
liminary conference Of few
powers. II would be possible, as
suggested by Premier Hughes, to
reach an agreement on fundamental
points Of difference on great East
ern issues, Il would be just as pos
sible and just as easy for all the
participating powers to reach such
an agreement in November.
