Superstitions OF the country folk Oh
Wales are discussed in the quarterly
report of DR.. Arthur Hughes, medical
health officer OF the county of Car
marthenshire. Despite the fact that
fortune telling and witchcraft are pro-
hibited under the English law, large
numbers of Welsh peasants bring
their ailing children to the witch doc
tors rather than to medical practition-
ers. One fetish that appeals to these
superstitiOus people is that witch
doctor can cure a child of backward
ness by means of making a slight in
cisiOn In the cartilage of the childs
ear. The operation must be performed
during the waxing Of the moon and the
art Is handed down from generation to
generation, the doctor" usually being
a woman. If cure does not result
the operation is repeated until the
child is cured 1t is said that many
women practice this art and that the
people pay large sums to have dull
so treated.-Brooklyn Eagle.

CARRIES STOOL TO WORSHIP
Woman at Jersey Resort Village Acts
~ Her Own Usher on Sunday
Provides Own Seat

Summer resOrters get accustomed to
doing without the many little convent
ences Of home life. They philOs0ph-
ically accept conditions as being nee
essary to camping out" So oil stoves
take the place Of gas ranges and they
carry water for the household from
the public hydrant down the bungalow
lined street, says the New York Sun.
On week-ends most of the bungalow
colonies house added guests and the
kitchen and porch serve as overflow
bedrooms. Few of the churches in
the summer towns are able to seat all
the worshipers on Sunday. But that
doesn't hinder the attendance. At

thought no more Of it than had they
seen her carrying bundle of gro

not only safe from unintentional foul
balls and the intentional pop bottles
of irate fans who differed from his
judgment but he also saved himself
from much expenditure OF lung
power.

CAPTAIN SUBDUES MUTINEERS
Hooch-Crazed Crew of Steamer Chez
ter kiwanis Finds His Fist
Worse Than Hurricane

Latest reports from the mutiny or
| the shipping board tramp steamer
| Chester Kiwanis while she was an.
chOred off Staten island early the other
morning, indicate that it was not for
assistance Capt Job Cunningham
called the harbor squad Of the police
department. The captain and his chief
engineer, although they were only two
against thirty-four drunken and
,Quarrelsome seamen, finished the job
OF quelfing the mutiny in such work
manffke manner that they thought 1t
a shame there were no witnesses to
the results of their efficiency, the New
York World states.
The mixup started when some of the
white sailors, having struggled aboard
a quantity Of bootleg hOoch, renewed a
quarrel with the eight negro members
OF the crew, who appealed to the
captain for protection. There had
been friction all the way over from
Boulogne, from which port the Chester
Kiwanis cleared and Capt. Cunning
ham was pretty we'll fed up with argu-
ment
Therefore he went to the fo'clsle,
where he found the crew had bar
ricaded itself in With one blow OF
his huge fist the captain shattered a
panel of the door, driving his fore
arm clear through. At this point a
sailor made tactical error of biting |
the captains wrist After that the
captain laid out every sailor within |
reach. and he managed to reach about |
all Of them. Chief Engineer Michael
son Joined the fray and although he t
got couple of black eyes, he gave
better than he received, and 1t was
not long before all was quiet along the
Staten island shore.
That was the time that the captain
md the chief decided 1t was too bad
10 one could see their handiwork.
when one of the crew below
started to yell they summoned the
'olice boat, explaining that they
feared second outbreak
Current opinion among the crew is
hat those two officers are not in fear

REGULATION OF TEMPERATURE
According to Opinion of Experts
Proper Mark for the Home Is
About SO Degrees.

Heating experts tell us that churche.
should be kept warmer than lecture
rooms. Whether this implies that the
lecture room audience lis more apt tt
forget any discomfort due to tenn
perature than church congregation
they decline to say.
According to the scientists versed In
the subject IS degrees is the proper
temperature for a church, while that
OF lecture hail should be between go
and "a degrees.
Public buildings, the experts agree,
should have a temperature between 68
and ~ degrees, while schools should
be kept uniformly at 70 degrees.
The proper temperature for the
home is about SO degrees, with bath
rooms at between 70 and So degrees.
Entrance halls and vestibules should
be kept at temperature between "a
and 60 degrees; gymnasiums 60 and
natatoriums SO degrees.
These are the temperatures for
hospitals: general rooms, 70 to rs de-
grees; sick rooms, u; operating
rooms, 70 to co.
Experts apparently do not believe in
making prisons attractive in cold
weather, as they recommend temper
allure for them between SO and "a de-
grees. Factories and shops should be
kept at a temperature Of IS degrees;
boiler shops and foundries, so to 60,

Back to the Picture Language.

A newspaper for English tourists
abroad has a very ingenious scheme
for showing exactly what attractions
certain hotels have to offer. If there
is an elevator in the hotel a picture
of small boy in uniform is shown
against the name Of that hotel A
motor car, lawn tennis courts by a
racquet, and so on. The scheme is
quite useful one, for 1t enables the
tourist to see at glance exactly
which hotel would suit him best, and
thus saves him wading through q
whole lot OF advertising matter.
