NOT AN EASY OCCUPATION
Deep-sea Diver May With Much Truth
Be Said Constantly to walk
With Death"

How does deep-sea diver feel
when he puts on his diving suit7 Capt.
G. =. ". Monckton tells us in Some
Experiences of a New Guinea Resi-
dent Magistrate" that the tceling is
by no means pleasant.
The moment the fa.e LASS IS
screwed tight, he says, an: the air
pump begins to work, the diver feels
that he has grievance. AS he de-
cends the feeling becomes more posi-
tive until he is in fury of rage
against everyone in general and usual
ly against one person in particular.
At the bottom he spends much OF RS
time wondering how soon the dress
can be taken Off so that he can lnJure
the person against Whom he has the
imaginary grievance. However, the
moment the face glass is removed,
and the diver breathes the ordinary
air, the bad temper leaves him, anu
ne wonders what caused his anger.
The divers greatest danger is that
of being drowned when he is on MS
way to the surface. After time, 1t
seems, the best Of diving dresses be-
comes leaky, and the water that finds
It's way through the seams settles
round the feet and the legs; divers
become accustomed to having their
dresses filed with water up to the
knees and even to the thighs. How

to the surface he may involuntarliy
or accidentally allow his body to be

tie water at once rushes into his
helmet, stands him on his head and
browns him.-Youth's Companion.

LEGEND Many CENTURIES OLD
Story of the 'Wanderine Jew" Has
Been Common to All Peoples
Since tho Crucifixion.

It is an ancient legend. that Of the
Wandering Jew, and the earliest men
ton can find Of it is said to be an
account related by an Armenian bish-
op in 1928. It has been exploited ey
the novelist. the playwright, the poe:
and the historian, for it is subject
replete with fascinating thrills.
Tales have differed as to the identity
of the Wandering Jew. One relates
that he was Kartaphilos, doorkeeper
in the judgment hall Of Pontius PLATE,
who, when the Man Of Sorrows was
passing through struck him, saying.
Go on faster, Jesus" and the replywas,
81 am going, but thou shall tarry till
I come again." A German legend takes
it up and relates that in the year 1547
the Jew appeared in Hamburg, giving
his name as Ahasuerus, saying that
he had been a shoemaker in Jerusalem
at the time Of the crucifiNion. When
Jesus paused at his door to rest the
cobbler pushed Him away, bidding
Him leave, to which the reply was:
Truly 1 go away and that quickly,
but tarry thou till come again"
And this tradition has it that the
condemned man, going from country
to country, speaking all languages.
wandered throughout the centuries.
Eugene Sue depicts this artisan Of
Jerusalem as pale, with the single line
of his black brows crossing from tenn
pie to temple, ever urged by the
avenging Deity, who cries, go on, go
on" but shows him as repentant and
with hope of final rest.-Frederic Has

Music BY Wireless.

Persons who ride on ether waves
must te'a precautions not to rock the
boat. aiuSic by wireless has charm
when conflicting vibrations are kept
apart. Recently Strauss music was
transmitted to receiving station IN
New York, where q soloist was to ac-
company II. The guests. including
Richard Strauss himself waited ex-
pectantly.
But the transmission was badly
timed. Instead of the sober melodies
expected, the ragtime Of another sub
scriber came from the transmitter,
says the New York Herald. The en-
barrassment of the wireless operator
can easily be imagined.
Perhaps music transmission by wire
less will be so perfected that churches
will subscribe for their Handel and
Bach, to be delivered much as stock
quotations are supplied by the ticker.
Dance halls in the same way may re-
eeive their rag and jazz from the
ether.
The miShap of the Strauss melodies,
though, might be disastrous on q
larger scale. A church might invite
a special accompanist for the wireless
music. Imagine the CONFUSION should
the wireless waves bring in Breezy
IBreezes" instead of the Bach ora
torio expected.

FINGER PRINTS NEVER CHANGE
Not Even the Smallest Variation Takes
Place From infancy to Ex-
trene Old Age.

The use Of finger prints as means
Of Identification was first made prac-
tical and put into operation by Sir
William Herschel Of the Indian civil
service in the police department Of
Bengal. The lineations Of the thumb
and fingers have, however, attracted
the attention Of scientists for at least
a century.
The ridges and patterns are Of four
primary types. First. arches, in which
the ridges run from one side to the
other, but make no backward turn );
second, loops, in which some OF the
ridges make a backward turn but
are devoid of twists; third, whirls,
in which some Of the ridges make 4
turn through at least one complete
circuit; and fourth, composite, where
two or more of the first three patterns
are combined in the same imprint.
1t has been demonstrated that these
designs persist unchanged in the small
est detail throughout the individuals
life, and that there are no two per-
sons whose imprints are identical. The
design on the fingers of newborn
infant are easily recognizable in the
same person in old age.

Key to Egyptian, Hieroglyphics.

The Rosetta stone, one OF the most
celebrated archaeological discoveries Of
modern times, is famous for being the
key whereby the decipherment of the
Egyptian hieroglyphics was made pos
sible. 1t was found in 1899 near Ros-
eta, Egypt, by an officer of engineers
in the French army, which was then
in occupation Of that country.
The stone is a slab of black basalt,
and bears an inscription in honor of
Ptolemy Epiphanes, written in three
anguages-Greek, demotic and hero
giyphic. AS the three Inscriptions are
of identical significance, the Greek
made easy the deciphering of the
others.
Until the discovery of the stone
archeolosists had no key to Egyp-
tian hieroglyphics, but since that
time all of Egypt's sculptured litera-
ture has been read with ease and
much valuable information given to
the world.

MONSTERS OF DISTANT PAST
Proof That Birds Capable Of Lifting
and Carrying Off Ft!l-Grown
Men Once Existed.

Recent scientific discoveries In vari-
Gus parts OF the world go TO prove that
in times long gone by there were birds
big enough TO lift man into The air
without difficulty, observes a London
Tit-Bits writer.
1t is well known that an eagle with
a fve-feet spread of wings can lift
lamb weighing ten pounds, and that q
bird can generally lift one-half more
than its own weight Many Of the
enormous birds of ancient times
weighed many hundreds of pounds,
and some of them had spread Of
wings which would cover present
day street car.
There once lived in the Rocky noun
tains Of America race of parrots
seven feet high. One nearly complete
skeleton Of this remarkable species
has been preserved, and fragments OF
others have recently been dug up.
These parrots are supposed to have
trodden the earth about 100000
years ago.
Another amaziIg treature was
running bird of prey Of the heron fam
lily. It had q head larscr than that Of
4 horse. with a huge sharp beak, and
was eight feet high. Like the parrot,
it could not fly to any height, as its
wings were not large enough to sup
port it.
In the island Of Madagascar there
used to be an enormous bird called
the aepyornis. This creature was ten
feet high and laid eggs thirteen inches
long and three feet in circumference.
It is supposed to have become extinct
only little more than a century ago.
Although the aepyornis must have
Jeen a sufficiently ,awe-inspiring sight,
tie "giant moa" of New Zealand,
which stood ii feet high and weighed
at least half a ton, must have been
even more so.

EUGENE O'BRIEN'S NEXT is
ELABORATE ORIENTAL PICTURE
"The Prophets Paradise" Has Turkey
for Background

The Prophets Paradise" is the al
Turing title Of the picture starring
Eugene O'Brien, coming to the Opera
House, Friday, June 2. This is an
other in the series Of Selznick pic
lures built for this clever young play
er. and it bears out the announce
ment that each of the individual pic
lures in the series will be different
from all the others. This time it is
to the orient that the producer has
gone for atmosphere, and the result
is one of the most picturesque and
colorful offerings Of this ceason's
screen output.
The story tells of the adventures
of Howard Anderson a young Amerl-
can, who is on a sightseeing trip IN
Constantinople. For the purpose Of
swindling the youth, Hassard el Ma
roun and his tool, Kadir, arrange a
fake slave auction, and lure the
daughter of an American professor
to the place. Threatening to Kill the
girl if she tries to get help, the con-
spirators place her on the auction
block, knowing that Anderson Will
paw well to save compatriot from
the fate of the harem. Their plans
work out perfectly to certain polnt'
but Anderson declines to submit
tamely to the contortion, and fights
the guards. In the battle, both An
derson and the girl escape, but they
are separated, and as he does not
know her name he is unable to IND
her. How they discover each other
again is fascinating final chapter
to thrilling story.
In addition to Mr.. O'Brien the cast
includes .Sigrid Holmquist, Bigelow
Cooper. Arthur Housman, Nora
Booth. Joseph Burke, Arthur Donald
son and John Hopkins. The 'produc-
ton wss directed by Alan Crosland
from a story by C. S. Montayne.

is LAND WITHOUT ARTISTS
In Country OF Vivid Beauty, the Arab
Knows Nothing of Pictures of
Any Kind.

That the religion Of the Arab fOrbids
him TO make a picture of any living
thing has had G somewhat startling
effect. Forbidden to portray ANYTHING
that has life, says Mr.. Willard Price
in Travel, the Arab has app5r"nt,Y
Shought il not worth his Will. -
portray mere inanimate objects. ihuS
the land of the Arab, though it biazeS
with light and color that would make
an artists fingers itch, is virtually a
pictureleSS land.
Indeed, unless native has been
much among Europeans he will scarce
ly understand a picture when he sees
one. a traveller once proudly showed
an Arab a photograph Of his little girl.
The Arab. supposing that he was look
ing at likeness Of the travellers wife,
remarked, 'She is indeed beautiful
woman" He could not determine
size in a picture.
But curiously enough there are pic
lures on q wall Of the bey's palace at
Constantine in Algeria. Ships, forts
and houses are painted there so crude
" that at first any spectator might
naturally suppose that child had done
them. But it seems that an Old-time
bey, one Ell Hadj Ahmed, careless OF
the Koran and its laws, brought a
French captive up from the dungeons,
gave him paint pots and brushes and,
setting him in front of the wall, or
dered him forthwith to adorn it with
pictures.
"But 1 am not an artist; l am
cobbler," the prisoner objected.
"All Frenchmen are artists" insist
ed the hey. "You shall receive twenty
i've lashes a day until you begin. But
If you make pretty pictures fer rs YOU
shall go free"
The cobbler promptly turned artiS
and created what are perhaps the
most childish daubs that adorn am
palace wall n the world. But the hey
thought they were pretty and set the
shoemaker free.

Violin Strjnos.

Each string in q violin IS Of diff
erent thickness, accordluS t. The tone
and tension required. The fourth
string is covered with fine wire, either
o white metal or real silver, hence
it is often called the "silver string"
Violas, violoncellos and double-basses
have each two covered strings, the
object being to insure sufficient
gravity Of tone without having toe
clumsy a material. The covered
strings on the guitar are upon basis
Of silk instead Of catgut. The best
gut comes from Italy, which has been
famous for centuries for this prod
uct. Strings are carefully selected and
graded as to size so that they sha!! be
uniform. The larger strings for the
bigger instruments are stretched on
frames for three or four days. The
covered strings are finished on a spes
cial lathe which covers them With
floss silk or fine silver-plated copper
wire, or even silyer.-Scientific Ameri'
