NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-The Miss
ing Persons Bureau last night sent
out q general alarm for Baylor
Klein. of East Eighth street, who
left his home on December 1S for
Paterson, N. j., after drawing SSoo
from the bank. Mrs. Klein notified
the police only after her husband
had not returned for Christmas.
saving she had no reason to believe
he would remain away Intentionally
without letting her know. She sus-
poets her husband has met harm.
Their three children, ranging from
one to five years, spent their first
Christmas without their father.
Mrs. Klein said that her husband,
an expert dyer, was considering en-
tering a partnership with several
men in Paterson and had told her he
was going there to close the deal,
taking the money with him. He did
not tell her the name of the pros
pective partners, she said.
Klein is described as five feet six
inches tall, weighing about 130
pounds, and having blue eyes, blonde
hair, and mustache and light com.
plexion. He wore a black suit, dark
overcoat, and dark green fedora hat
when last seen.

100000
square yards Of
Concrete pave
nent have been
placed under
contract this
year-a gain OF
more than 3Oper
cent over last
year; the largest
previous year:
The construction thus
provided for, and to a
large extent completed,
is equivalent to more
than 1000 miles Of 49,
foot pavement.
That Is a larger amount
of Concrete highway
than there was in the
country altogether up
to 1917.
These facts witness the
determination OF this
country to have roads
equal to the traffic they
bear.
Yet even with this great
record, the output of
motor vehicles contin-
ues to outstrip by far
the construction Of
motor roads.
The revolution in road
traffic due to the AUTO
mobile has called for
hole-proof, skid-proof,
really enduring pave
ment; and Concrete
fills the need,
That is the explana-
ton of the steady rapid
gain in Concrete road
construction during
the last decade-the
largest developmentin in
basic transportation

in many years.

On the little island Of Lanai, one of

Hawaiian canoe that must be at least
$50 years old. It was in good preser.

canoe found that did not contain
nails. 1t was held together with
wooden spikes. Emory declares that
Lanai is rich In rock writing and that
he is now seeking the cipher to the
numerous pictorial groups which he
has found in the lava surfaces on the
islands.
'The figures are mostly human" he
said, with some humans mounted on
horses. There are also animal flg-

his right foot backward and forward

sciously done, and too much for the
nerves of the other man.
Strangely enough, the next applicant
had an antic, says London Answers.
AS he answered questions the fingers
Of his right hand played a tattoo on
the back Of his left hand. And he
missed the job. True, he might not
have got it in any case, as his Qualifi-

the deciding factor.
Some people blink. 1t annoys, it an

preston that he or she is a person Of
indecision.
Others frown. 1t may be just an
outward sign Of mental concentration,
but it antagonizes. A frown, too,
leaves unattractive lines on the face.
Watch your antics. Don't rub your
nose; don't scratch your head; don't
swing your feet; don't tattoo with your

WAMPUM IN INDIAN TRADITION
Legend Connects II With Hiawatha-
Earliest 10 Believed to Have
4. Been Made From Wood.

Among other traditions explaining
how wampum (belt Of curious-looking
white and purple beads used as cur
rency by the Indians and early colo
nists and traders) first came to be used,
the Iroquois have one to the effect that
once Hiawatha, on journey, came to
little lake, and was wondering how
to cross it when flock of ducks ap-
peared and settled on the water. When
they flew away, Hiawatha, looking On
the dry bed of the lake, saw that it
was covered with shells. Of these he
made the first wampum. 1e II
Despite this legend and similar ones,
however, 1t is believed that the earliest
wampum was made of small pieces Of
wood Of equal size, stained black or
white. Porcupine quilts are also said
to have been used. Later, wampum
was made from shells, sometimes Of
the fresh water varieties, but generally
OF sea shells. The best wampum was
made from the hearts Of the common
hard clam Of Long Island.

HAD LEISURE FOR FINE WORK
Little to Do Except the Practice
Of NeedIework.

The elaborate costume of both men
and women in the reign Of Queen Eliz-
abeth was profusely ornamented with
needlework; even the fine linen shirts
of ladies of high degree might have
the upper part and the sleeves covered
with minute embroidery in colored silk.
Jackets, bodlces, and bodice fronts
were treated with repeating ornament
of silk embroidery, often enhanced
with gold and silver thread and
spangles, the richness eliminating in
the cap-shaped headdress, where the
work was closer and had larger pro-
portion of the gold and silver thread
and shining ornaments. Medieval Italy
was also rich in works Of embroidery,
with a wide range Of treatment and
application to purpose; France was
the home of beautiful work, keeping
pace with England in medieval and lat
err times, and even SURPRISING her in
delicate and gorgeous work, especially
in the way Of ecclesiastical vestments.

TALKING COST HER THRONE
Ancient Record Tells Of High Position
Woman Forfeited by Waooino
Tongue Too Freely.

The great fault Of women of the
Middle ages was their talkativeness,
one might CLEAN from the records of
that time. The Knight Of la Tour
Landry, in a book which he wrote
for the instruction Of his motherless
daughters, tells how an English king
sent an ambassador to choose a wife
for him from among the daughters of
the king Of Denmark. Though the
oldest was the fairest, "she winked
oft and spake before she understood
what was said to her, and ever beat
her eyelids together" and was
therefore rejected by the ambassa-
dor, as was the second daughter
who had marvellous much knowl-
edge" The third, who was less fair,
but better behaved received the
crown, to her own astonishment and
that Of her sisters.
Another tale of the old knights tells
Of a young lady whose face was blue
by reason Of the scandal Of the scanti-
ness of the gown she wore one win
ter day, and was rejected in favor
Of less comedy sister who was warm
ly clad and ruddy Of hue. H.

Whom Vapor Is Dry.

There seems to be popular miscon-
ception In the superstition that aque-
GUS vapor and ice are wet. They are
in themselves dry, 50 it has been point
ed out by competent Investigators, and
become wet only when they turn to
water. So dry is aqueous vapor, It
seems, that it will dry any moist OBJ
tect with which it comes in contact.
Superheated steam, before it con-
denses, is a dry gas. Ice feels wet If
the temperature of the hand Is suf1-
cient to melt it; as ice it is dry. An
other misconception is that the air can
be either dry or moist It is con-
densed aqueous vapor in the air that
Is moist, and it would be moist if
there were no air. A given quantity
Of aqueous vapor confined in given
space will be wet or dry, according to
the temperature. At 80 degrees, for
instance, it might be partially con-
densed, and consequently wet, while
at 20 degrees, owing to expansion, It
would be dry.

Now, way deep in her heart, far
deeper down than had penetrated this
fad for the study Of psychology Of
crowds, Peggy was sentimental. She
had always received valentines. She
had looked eagerly for the postman
on the morning Of February IA. Now,
it came to her suddenly, that though
she had risen far above being 50 fool
ish as to have to receive a token on
this st. Valentines day, it always did
seem pleasant to open heart-shaped
boxes Of candy and pretty punches Of
flowers.
The>"day dawned crisply and the
postman did not so much as look at the
mail box at the garden gate. Peggy
did see him coming, and though she
assumed careless, Indifferent air, she
did observe his passing her box with
out so much as look. Every time
the bell rang she thought it might be
the florist, though she did not admit
this to herself. Evening found her q
little blue. She had not even had a
telephone message from Tom. 1t was
the first Valentines day in her life on
which she had not received some sort
Of gift. -.

most grievances today. Tom had

Fall slipped into winter and the

decided hit each night. Still she did
not feel that she was one Of them.
There was always slight GOODNESS
about these people that was apt to-
freeze suddenly right In the middle
Of a conversation, and without a
moments notice. Southern people
were nice, but queer-so queer. No
doubt about that.
And now spring had come again
and soon Marion would be going back
home, and for some peculiar reason
she was not sure that she was glad.
She had made a success of her teach

unstinted in his praise Of her work.

parting banquet in honor Of them
selves and to commemorate most

speech:

the table has been prepared by a
northern woman we coaxed over from
Delton and the recipes all came out

and the cooking and everything, and
I did so want them to love me? If
you ever hear me say up North
again, hope you'll run me out Of the
county. That's what I deserve, any
way"
Flushed and GREATNESS, she dropped
into her chair again.
Eyes, I'm certain Miss Caruthers
feels every word she's said about
liking the South and all that" said
Professor Hamilton rising, because

Marion Caruthers looked up, nodded
to the porter, quickly stuffed the
