1921 RUSSIAN IMPORTS

Ing the period since Russia's first
peace treaty was concluded with Es-
thonia, when the blockade against
Russia was brought to an end. Chiefly
due to lack of system and the chaotic
conditions which existed during 1920.
Russia exported but little in that
time. the imports, however. being
valued at 100000 gold rubles.
But as soon as trade agencies and

The soviet press concludes that,
owing to the exhausted condition OF

though, says one paper, an improve

well be expected.

who were associated with him I'm a
delegation to Washington In 1924.
Pushmataha was chiefly celebrated
for his unfaltering friendship for the
young American republic, and through
out his life he was able to demonstrate
this friendship in various valuable
ways. During the War of 1872 he
headed the Indians who composed a
portion Of Andrew Jackson's army, and
his services In that conflict were so
noteworthy that Jackson granted him
commission as brigadier general. he
co-operated with the white authorities
in the removal of the Choctaws from
their original location In the Missis-
sippi country to what was later Indian
territory. He died In 1924 while on a
visit to Washington In connection
with this removal.

Fashions in Flowers.

Flowers have, not always meant
beauty alone. In the days of the
French revolution to wear or even pos
sess the prescribed fieur-de-lys meant
death. Likewise, after Waterloo and
the fall from power of the Napoleonic
regime, the violet, which had been
chosen as the emblem of the Napol-
cons, was forced to disappear from
public view. Yet later, as times
changed. history found the Empress
Eugene wearing the violet on her
breast at ball in the Tuileries to
signify to the world that she had &C
cepted the hand Of Napoleon LII.
Nor have the same flowers always
found favor in the eyes Of the world.
Some flowers have their fashions, too,
as, for example, the camelia and the
once despised sunfiower and marigold.
1t was through Dumas that the waxen
beauty of the camelia came into gen.
eral favor, and the re-Raphaelites re-
stored to high place the sunfower and
the marigold, the mythical goldf1ower

Gold Knives Used to Carve Sacrifices

Gold Knives Used to Carve Sacrifices.
At Chichen-itza, in Yucatan, where
there is a sacred sinking well, there
has been found all sorts of beautiful
sacrifices imbedded in the mud. Jade
necklaces, gold plates and small jars
heavily studded with jade, sometimes
containing human hearts, have been
found in this well. The Maya Indians
made these sacrifices when they want
ed rain or a blessing for their crops.
Beautiful gold knives that were UNI
doubtedly used to carve up the victims
of sacrifice, usually young women,
have also been found.
The Maya Indians of northern Yu-
catan probably use the same language
as the builders OF the ruins among
which they live, says Prof. A NJ Toy
ger. of Harvard university.

 It was late that afternoon before Patricia put In an appearance and there was new, shy dignity in her bearing that silenced the reproof upon her aunt's lips.
 Roger had appeared at luncheon more wan and fragile than ever, but later Miles had caught glimpse of him tottering down the drive muffled to the ears In a greatcoat in spite of the mild spring weather. and won dered what errand could have dragged him forth The return of Patricia, however. turned his thoughts to other channels and the arrival within an hour of an unexpected caller banished all idle speculation for the time being from his mind
 The caller was Miss Ora Hawks but the transformation In her appearance was remarkable. If she had not quite succeeded in regaining the lost years of her youth she had made vic- torious effort to mitigate the inroads of time.
 The butler served tea in the draw ing room, but the detective knew that although Carter had been sent to summon both Hobart and Andrew only the latter appeared and that re- luctantly enough. Miles loitered in the hallway below trying in vain to catch a word of the conversation be- tween Miss Hawks and her former swain.
 All at once the heavy portieres parted and the visitor reappeared. It was doubtful if she was conscious of the pseudo -houseman's shadowy figure in the background as she made for the front door, calling back over her shoulder with quick, convulsive catch of her breath.
 NO, don't trouble, please! I can find my way Tell Jerusha IT will see her soon. Goodby."
 It was not the words nor the tone in which they were uttered which for a moment held the detective rooted to the spot, but the dazed look Of half-incredulous wonder upon the woman's face and the glint as of dawning fear in her eyes.
 Scarcely had the door closed when there was a crash in the drawing room followed by the hiss of flame and a mans below of profanity with pain
 A pungant odor of smodering cloth assailed his nostrils stifiingly as Miles dashed the portieres aside to behold Andrew tearing off his scorched coat from which curl of acrid smoke arose and stamping out tiny bluish flame that darted across the rug from beneath the overturned tea-tatble.
