creur, por orden de Luis XIV fu6 en-
viado la Corte de Viena para ejecu-
tar el retratO, de la Archiduquesa Ma
ria AntOnieta, futura esposa de Del

mission artfstica Y de los pasteles que
Ducreaux realiz6, bajo los ojos de la
Emperatriz Maria Teresa, esta llena
de an6cdotas de las mas picantes. :.

aliadas, el Conde de Mercy, en- Paris
Y ell Marques de Dufort en- Viena,
han. mencionado en- numerosos docu-

realiz6 el trabajo. La llegada del pin
tor fue anunciada por Dufort su
ministro, el Duque Choiseul.
La election era buena, puesto que ell
excelente pastelista pasaba por uno de
los mejores discfpulos de La Tour.
Ademas, iba acampafado por un
peinador parisiense que ell Principe de
Starhemberg, ministro de Estado, ha-
bfa solicitado confidencialmente nom

al gusto frances la bella carita de la
Archiduquesa Maria Antonieta, que

BOYS DON'T WANT THRILLERS


No longer do the tales Of Little
Sure Shot," "Deadwood Dick and
other old-time terrors of the prairies
interest the youth of the rising genera
ton, observes the New York World.
This has been demonstrated since the
collection of Beadle's dime novels was
placed In the public library. 1t had
been expected that there would be
rush of young people to see the old
thrillers, and at least one society that
takes upon itself the care and supervi-
sion of public morals was moved to
rise In protest against debauching the
mind Of youth. However, In the month
in which these books have been on
show, less than 10 per cent Of the Wis
itors has been under the age of six
teen.
Attendants keep a tally, and during
the time the Beadle books have been
displayed there have been 1,427 per-
sons in to see them. While the tally as
to ages Is not kept, 1t is the consensus
of attendants that hardly more than
100 have been minors. In the next
room, however, where the baseball
collection has been displayed, more
than half the visitors are children.
During July there were 9,643 who WIS.,
tied the display.
The Beadle collection has been at
tractive chiefly to the middle aged.
Men of dlgnified bearing, often in
pairs, have gone the rounds of the
showcases, chuckling over the titles.
"It's like renewing youth" is a fire.

PERSECUTION OF NO AVAIL
oldtimer Tells Of Efforts to Exterml-
nate Sparrows. Which Were
Worse Than Useless.

Watching an elderly man scattering
cracked corn to City Hall park spar
rows the other day stirred reminis-
cent vein In one of the bench occu-
pants.
"They treat sparrOws differently
than they did twenty-five years ago"
he said Guess they discovered they
couldn't get rid of them and decided
to make them comfortable.
"a quarter of century ago many
communities made determined efforts
to kill off sparrows. State and county
authorities offered bOunties of one
cent a head for the birds. Boys made
considerable pocket money shooting
the creatures and in places men made
a business of trapping them. They'd
spread great nets over the roofs of
barns and then rOut the birds from
their roosts
But it was no use. Organized war
fare on the birds made lnroads only
in the county treasures and the
bounty was declared off. Now they
feed the sparrOws. Times sure do
change."-New York Sun.

Land Reclaimed From Lake.

Montenegro will gain navigable
outlet to the sea and nearly 10000
acres of rich new land by negotiations
pending between Jugo-Slavia and Al
bania, which have as their objective
the lowering to sea level of the ancient
lake of Scutari
The project involves cost of
S2,000,000 and will lower the level of
Scutari lake by eight feet through the
deepening of the River Bojana, from
Scutari to the Adriatic.
The draining of the lake shores will
increase Montenegros territory 29,650
acres of rich land This addition will
make Montenegro self-supporting for
the first time in its history.

HAS ICE AT ALL SEASONS
Montana Indian, Digging Well, Seem
inoIy Came Upon Most Remark
able Freak of Nature.

More than eight years ago John
Spotted Wolf, an Indian Of the chey-
enne reservation in eastern Montana,
decided that he should like to have a
well near his log cabin. So he and his
wife Mary chose spot near a large
pine tree, perhaps 20 rods from the
door, and then John began to dig.
By noon of the second day he had
dug down ten feet. Although the
weather was mild, he had complained
of being cold while at work. After
eating he put on an extra coat and
went to work again. He kept Mary
and her brother Rolling Bull busy
hauling up and carrying away the dirt
that he lOosened. But in spite Of
Johns extra clothing he still was cold,
On the third morning he added more
clothing; but when night came and the
well had reached the depth Of IS feet
he was almost frozen.
The next morning he again descend
ed the well and worked as rapidly as
his many layers of clothing would per-
nit. After while water began to
appear. Suddenly he shouted: "Pull
me up! Pull me up"
John had barely reached the surface
before the well filled to within foot
Of the top and then began to freeze
around the edges. In a short time
only small opening perhaps a foot
in diameter remained.
The well remains the same way year
after year. the Youths Companion
states. During the day In summer the
sun melts the ice around the top, but
at night it freezes again. The well,
which furnishes permanent ice sup
ply for the people In the neighborhood,
Is a strange freak of nature Of which
there are so many in the western part
Of the state. Tourists who visit the
reservation regard it as great curl
Osity.

BIBLE IN SCHOOL TO HAVE PART
IN ELECTION


An active part in the primary
election in State Of Washington is
to be taken by the Bible Fellow
ship of Washington, an organization
of representatives of Protestant
churches, in an announced effort to
compel both the Democratic and
Republican parties to take af1rma-
tive or negative stand on the ques-
ton of admitting the Bible to the
public schools, r.. l.. Edmison, presi-
dent of the organization, declared
recently.
AS set forth in its printed matter,
the object of the Bible fellowship
is ito remove legal barriers to read
ing the Bible in the public schools

The Bourbon news. [volume] (Paris, Ky.) 1895-19??, 1922-06-09

Newspaper headlines have come in
recently for considerable share of
blame for the present conditions of
unrest. The point made is that
great faring type spread over eight
COLUMNS Of the front page induce to
unsettlement; that readers get the
Jumps from taking them at face
value; that no man can think nor
mally and nationally about the con-
tents of the article he reads when he
starts it under the influence Of a
headline writer, who has striven to
jar him into an excited frame of
mind.
The war was responsible, of
course, for the domination of the
news columns by the headlines. It
was SO big that only big type seemed
proper for its display, and, having
once struck his stride, winning a
free and unhampered field, it is
pretty difficult to persuade the head
liner to come off his perch. In con-
sequence he is still with us, feeding
us day by day very highly seasoned
stuff, everything a crisis, making it
semowhat difficult to sober down.
The steel strikes gives him an
other opportunity, of which he will
avail himself t othe limit centering
the attention of the world on a
struggles if it were a priZefght
that might be more easily dispos-
ed of if it were not fought out in
the headlines, millions looking on
and both sides keenly aware of the
gallery"
In the circumstances it may not
be amiss to warn readers against
the ineradicable propensity of the
headliner to feature hot stuff"
something with a kick in it. Don't
conclude that the world is going
to the dogs because he yells at you
so loudly. Take his verbal assault
calmly. Often his bark is worse
than his bite.
