Frank G. Davis, of Corona, H.,
arrived in the city the latter part of
his sister, Mrs. II. E. Conklin and
family. Mr.. Davis was born and
raised in Audubon but left with his
family for Illinois many years ago,
this being his first visit to Audubon
in six years. He has been employed
with the railroad company but
many of them have been laid off. He
will probably remain until after the
holidays, when work will open up
again. He reports his father, Thos.
Davis, as not being in the best of
health. This will be learned with
regret by many of his old-time
friends, for Mr.. Davis was splen-
did visitor and appeared to be in
robust health.

FAMINE FUND WORK
AT HALFWAY MARK
Thomas W. Lamont, Chairman,
Tells Of Relief Administered
and Task to Be Completed.

The American Committee for China
Famine Fund. according 10 state
ment issued by Thomas w. Lamont,
chairman. has reached the second
stage OF it's mission OF mercy OF send
Ing funds from America 10 feed the
millions Of starving famine victims In
the far eastern republic. AT the low
est estimate, the statement says, Just
as much more is needed to carry "the
last 100000" through 10 the June
harvest as has already been sent.
Mr.. Lamont points out that quick
response by America TO appeals mads
by President Harding and his prede-
cessor. President Wilson, has resulted
in such prompt distribution OF relief
that the threatened magnitude OF the
famine has been checked to a marked
extent. A continuation OF the efforts
so far made, Il Is declared, will place
the famine relief for China among
Americas most effective phllanthro-
pies
The Waiting Millions
There remain. however. the state
ment shows, a last 100000" TO be
saved. and these people can be saved
only by continuous and voluminous re-
lief resulting from American subscrip-
tions.
The statement, in part, follows:
Quick response TO the appeal OF the

Inc Fund gives us at the halfway
point In our work the cheering assur-
hnce that the subscriptions from gen
erous America already have served a
great humanitarian purpose. inasmuch
as relief already administered has held

WON FAME IS Prophecies
Legends Concerning "haothsr shlpton"
Tell Us Little Of Real Life Of
:. Remarkable Woman.

In the four centuries . and more
since Mother Shipt0n's birth, her pre-
dictions have from time to time been
recalled, especially as some new in
vention or historical development has
seemed to bear out her prophecies.
According to the Encyclopedia Britain
MICA, Mother Shipton was born near
Yorkshire good many years before
Columbus discovered America, though
the exact date is in doubt. The leg
end concerning her states that she
was begotten, like the Wizard Merlin
Of King Arthur's Round Table, OF
union Of a phantom of Apollo or
some other aerial demon in that guise,
and 4 beautiful young orphan girl Of
Yorkshire named Agatha Southill. The
baby was christened Ursula Soulful
by the abbot Of Beverly. From early
childhood the prophecies displayed
her weird powers, which developed In
scope as she grew older. She mar
ried a carpenter named ~Shipton, &C.
cording to the legend, and died at
the age Of seventy-three years. Con.
trary to the custom of those times,
Mother Shipton, despite her suspect
ed connection with the devil and the
powers Of darkness, escaped hanging
as witch, due largely to the fact
that she had never been known to
harm, anyone. Har, ''exll eye was
never turned toward any person, but
exerted its baleful power in piercing
the veil of the future.

WILLING TO SHARE HUSBAND
Curious Custom That Came Under the
Observation Of Traveller
In Persia.

One Of the most extraordinary GUS
toms in the world is that observed
by certain Persian tribes.
When a native woman wishes to
display her affection for a friend Of
her own sex, she proposes that the
latter shall become her husbands wife
on equal terms with herself.
This is the greatest compliment
she can bestow," wrote the late DR..
Elizabeth Macbean Ross, who spent
some years as q doctor among the
tribes Of North Persia. She had the
hand Of many Persian husbands Of
fered to her in this way.
II must say it is somewhat embar-
rassing," she said, in her remini-
SCIENCES, according to London Tit-Bits.
"when the gentleman himself happens
to be present, and have sometimes
wondered what the effect on the wife
would be If her generous offer were
accepted.
"When I told them it appeared to
me curious thing that one wife
should select another, was Informed
that it presented many advantages
1t Is much better for us to choose
our husbands wife; then we get some
one We like and with whom we can
agree,'" $50
If a husband dies his wives are
divided among his brothers, the eldest

as many of the women as he fancies.
