Saint Napoleon sounds somewhat
strange to ears Of English-speaking

At the heyday Of his fame, Bonaparte
discovered that II would b well for
him, and the Napoleonic dynasty
which he hoped to found, that name
patron should find prominence In
French history. With obliging zeal
his ecclesiastical supporters managed
to trace an obscure faithful one Ne
opolas, who had been martyred in AL.

reole was placed; the French bishops
received pastoral letter from their
cardinal chief; and Plus VII called St
Napoleon into being. His day was the

COLOR

In the dim ages Of history wren man
Arst felt the desire for beauty, traders
searched the world for dyestuffs, Jew
els. perfumes, spices and precious
woods. The risk of these voyages was
great and only princes or nobles could
afford the fruits of ventures 20 the far
corners OF the world. No man Of
humble origin could aspire to the rich
crimsoned linen, the Royal Purple OF
ancient Tyre, retailing at 5000 pound.
Royal Purple is an age-old insignia
of aristocracy. This dye was secreted
by small sheilhsh on the Eastern
coast of the Mediterranean and here
the enterprising merchants of Tyre
formed dye monopoly equaled only
by the German Cartel
A bit of the whitsh liquid Secreted by
this mollusk, if spread upon a cloth
and exposed to the air and sunlight
turns first green, next blue and then
purple. If washed with an alkali soap
it becomes the magnificent Crimson
worn by the Cardinals and Princes of
the Catholic Church. Tyrian purple
vanished from the marts of the world
with the fall of Tyre.
Synthetic chemistry learned the Sc
eret of making Royal Purple as, in
deed, it learned to manufacture indigo,
the same deep blue that may be seen
today IN museums, the winding sheets
of Egyptian mummies. 1t was an
achievement TO snatch its distinctive
color from royalty and to rival the
best vegetable indigo of the an
clients but modern chemistry has
gone far beyond that. Today any kind
Of dye found in nature can be made in
the laboratory. Indeed, among the 900
shades and colors being manufacture
there are tints that it would be diff
cult to discern in the rainbow.

have decided to purchase only $780,
100000 pounds of this seasons Burley
crop, thus forcing The growers of Ken
lucky, Ohio ami indiana to hold the
remaining 175,OOO,00O pounds. The
150,OOO,OOO pounds, he said, would be
the cream of the present seasons pro-
duction, and if scld at the present
price bid, would depreciate the re-
malnder of the crop and make 1t prac-
tically worthless.
AS remedy for this condition he
advised complete cut-out Of the 1921
crop and holding off the market the

to await tie effect of the cut-out Or

he suggested that there be put on the

he predicted would bring an advance
price in the face of the cut-out. This
tobacco sold could be handled through

THE DESERTS

It's the deserts make the rain,
And their leagues of sand that blend
With the blowing air to help
Bring the moisture of the cloud.
But for the desert and the plain
There would be no fertile lands,
All the flower and fruit would end,
And with lean and empty hands
Life would walk as in a shroud,
Starved and hungry and forlorn.
It's the desert place of life
Helps us gain the dewy morn,
Brings the blossom to our strife,
Makes our efforts and our will
Fertile with the hope and trust
1t is from the sand and dust,
From the weariness and loss,
From the burden and the cross,
That we gain the will to cling
To the hopes that in us sing,
To the promise of the birth
Of new ages of the earth,
When the barren lands shall grow
Fertile Edens and shall know
Lovelier fruit and flower and deed
Through the planting of loves seed.

CROSSING THE PLAINS

What great yoked brutes with briskets
low,
With wrinkled necks like buffalo,
With round, brown, liquid, pleading eyes,
That turned so slow and sad to you,
That shone like loves eyes soft with tears,
That seemed to plead, and make replies,
The while they bowed their necks and
drew
The creaking load; and looked at you.
Their sable briskets swept the ground,
Their cloven feet kept solemn sound.
Two sullen bullocks led the line,
Their great eyes shining bright like wine;
Two sullen captive kings were they,
That had in time held crushed the sod
With stolid sense of majesty,
And stately stepped and stately trod,
AS if it were something still to be
Kings even in captivity.
