NUMBERS THAT PEOPLE LIKE
Results of Curious Inquiry Into the
Preferences Of Inhabitants of
4 Various Countries.

. There has been announced in France
the result of curious investigation
concerning preferred numbers of the
inhabitants of different countries.
The basis Of the investigation Is a
study of the various denominations
of money, postage stamps and other
measures. ~
1t appears that nearly ell races
show marked prcsarence for the
numbers "twO," "three" and five"
and their multiples. But the Moham-
medans avoid the number "three."
Neither in Turkey nor in Persia. it
appears, does one find trace of this
number, and it is scarcely found in
Egypt. H. ~ "a. ,..s.. 49, 49,
Among the French and other Latin
peoples "twO'' and five" are more
popular than "tlree." while the Eng
fish prefer ''two" and "three" and the
Germans "thrce" and ''fve."
The Chinese resemble the Latin
race in their choice, while the people
of India have Il strong liking for
"two" The number Seven is most
used in RUSSIA and other Slavic coun-
tries. The higher numbers are not
much used except in Spanish coun-
tries. as "eleven'' in Salvador. "seven-
teen" in Mexico. "nineteen' in Spain,
and "thirty-one' in Guatemala. The
people of Hawaii are said to be quite
fond of "thirtee;I."

enisodes that make Beating the

oRVIET0 WINE SUITED Hum
Story of the German Bishop Ex-
plains the Est, Est, Est" on
the Bottles. Il

There Is Il story told of Ger
man bishop in the Middle Ages who
travelled through Italy, stopping at
every inn. to which he came in order
to sample the wine of the country.
Whenever. he found an exceptionally
good wine he gave his servant piece
of chalk from his pocket, and the
servant wrote the Latin word est
on The door of the inn, meaning ut
Is good
Finally the bishop came to Orvieto,
and WAS served with a bottle OF
Orvirto wine. When he had finished
it he asked for another; and when he
had finished the second he called for
thi-,l; and when he had finished the
third he took Il piece OF chalk from his
pocket and went in person to the door
of the inn and wrote on it the words
est, Est! EST" which meant that
the wine of Orvieto was three times as
good as any other wine that he had
ever tasted. And from that day until
the day Of his death he remained In
O:vieto and drank nothing but Orvieto
wine; and his tombstone may be seen
in Orvieto to this day, stating that
he slied Of too much Orvieto.
As Cor the wine of Orvieto, the
bottles in which it is sold always
bear the words "IIst Est! EST" to
comsemOrate the excellent taste OF
the German bishop.

ut CAN BE DONE" AT THE
.@ ELKO THEATER MONDAY

Earle Williams in ut Can BE
Done" will be seen at the Elko the
ater next Monday and Tuesday. The
title is particularly appropriate to the
blot of the story visualized on the
screen. Mr.. Williams as an author
whose stories are ridiculed as highly
improbable, if not even impossible,
undertakes to live out one. He sue
ceeds and at the same time finds
that what actually did happen was
wilder and more improbable than
what he had written.
The story is one that should prove
popular as it contains the clements
of suspense, mystery, humor ana love
in the right proportions. The scenic
backgrounds are pleasing to the eye
and the camera work is exceptionally
good. The production was directed
by David Smith. renowned for big
productions which have met with I'M
usual success.

Sparows TO the Rescue.


News of a remarkable case of bird
intelligence comes from Manchester,
London Tit-Bits states.
Several people at the Assizes noticed
the peculiar behavior Of sparrow
which was leaping from one OF the
chimneys and then falling to the
roof as though injured, but nobody APP
reared to suspect that the bird was
prisoner.
On opening the court the next day
the attention of the officials was at
tracted by the excited cnirping or a
number of other sparrOws, and it was
seen that the original sparrow was
still t1utterlng feebly on the roof
In a few minutes the watchers
realized that the newcomers were feed
ing the exhausted bird and several
crumbs Of bread and biscuits fell to
the ground.
Ladders were obtained and an at
tendant climbed to the roof and FOUND
that the legs Of the sparrow were
held fast by piece of thread, the
other end of which was entaged in
the brickwOrk. 1t was quickly rex
leased and after being given crumbs
and water was set free to join its
fellows.

Water at 80 Cents a Gallon.

Water isn't quite up to the price of
liquor, but it is almost there at Cow
Camp, the drest point on the Silver
Peak range, near Tonopah, New. They
are paying 80 cents gallon for It,,
and residents agree that it is cheap at
the price. There isn't any competi-
tion. The water man has Il monopoly
and no one envieS him his job.
The nearest watering place is II
miles away. For five miles the wa

Mrs. Mcdonald, who lived long
abroad, when her husband was OPEN
ing up new oil territory in England, In

Just now she believes that the cruz

for which are now being prepared.
This referendum, provision fos
which is made in the general Foun-

members express.
In order that membership in the
