DO you know what map isl 1t
sounds like foolish question. You
will probably contend that every

definition you will probably say "a

But this Is only partly true, writes
c. II. Claudy In the Scientific Ameri-

in existence which will truthfully fit
such definition, and that is a map
made upon n globe. No fiat map. large
or small, exactly represents" any

on u globe are the distances between
all points truly proportional to dis
tances between points on the earth rep
resented.
In other words all fiat maps are dis
torted. All fiat maps tell only part
Of the truth. All fiat maps to some
extent misrepresent the facts.
This Is not due to any lack of moral
sense OH the part of the map makers.
They can't help it. The nature of a
globe Is such that there Is no process
by which its surface can be flattened
out without tearing. stretching, cutting

WOULD PRESERVE RARE BIRD
European Governments In Africa Unite
In Giving Protection to the
Whale. Headed Stork

Whale-headed, or shoeb1ll storks are
remarkably rare birds. The American
Museum Of Natural History has re-
ceived a skin and skeleton Of one of
these uncommon members Of the feath-
cred world. Only four other speci-
ments Of the birds are known to be in
this country. They were all secured
by Colonel Roosevelt and are all in
the National museum at Washington.
The whale-headed stork Is a large
African bird found only In the papy-
rus marshes Of the Upper Nile and
along the northern edge Of Lake Vic
toria and on the upper Lualaba.
It is uncommon, even where found,
and very wild. 1t is now carefully
protected by all the European gov
ernments which have colonies In
Africa, special permission being re-
quired for hunting it.
1t is of scientific importance for
the reason that 1t may be related
to the herons, and If go. constitutes
a very remarkable link between two
orders of birds. In appearance 1t Is
of gaunt, gray figure, some five feet
in height Its large head Is sur
mounted by a little curled tuft. The
expression of its eyes Is scowling.
Its huge bill, in shape similar to a
whales head. Is tipped with for

NO LONGER WEAPON or WAR
The Mace Today 10, However, In All
Countries a Recognized Symbol
Of Authority.

In the days of old armory the mace
was a military implement used for
dealing heavy blows. 1t was frequent
iy carried by horse soldiers at the
saddle bow, where it was suspended
by thong which passed through the
upper part Of the handle; this thong
was wound around the wrist to pre-
vent it's loss by the force Of a blow.
1t could be conveniently welded with
one hand and had many forms. The
head was Of ten spikes, and some
times consisted of six. eight or more
radiating blades, grouped around a
central spike, all of steel. In England
the mace was used in battles and
tournaments, and was superseded by
the pistol in the time of Elizabeth.
The ornamental maces of parliament,
the universities, and the city corpora
lions may be traced to the Twelfth
and Thirteenth centuries. The house
of commons has possessed no less than
three maces, and that of the lord may

the congress of the United States the
sergeant-at-ar has small silver
mace.
At the present day the mace Is re-
garded as n scepter or staff of office.
Maces are borne before or by officials
of various ranks in many countries,
as symbol of authority, or badge Of
office, and the mace on the table of the
British house of lords or of commons
represents the authority of the house.

"OIL ON TROUBLED WATERS"

Can Be Traced to an Old
~ Latin Legend.

ITO pour Oil on troubled waters"
means to smooth out difference or
to allay commotlOn Of any sort. The
original use of the phrase was quite
literal and goes way back to an old
Latin legend. Utta, a priest. was sent
into Kent for Eanfied, the daughter
OF King Edwine, who was to be mar
ried to King Oswirra. The priest went
to the bishop to ask his prayers for a
safe journey, and the bishop, predict
ing tempest at sea, gave him pot
Of oil, saying:
Remember that you cast into the
sea this oyle that give you an anon,
the winds being laied, comfortable,
fayer weather shall ensue on the sea-
The tempest came as predicted and
the sailors and passengers were ex-
pecting death every minute, according
to the legend, when the priest, be-
thinking himself Of the oil, east II into
the sea. In a second the waves be-
came calm and the wind died down.
From that time pouring oil on trou-
bled waters" became popular meta
phor.

FIRST CUPBOARD IN AMERICA
Said to Have Been Brought to the
Country by Lord Fairfax-
Preceded Cellarette.

II was not the custom until recent
period for each person to have a sep
arate drinking vessel, and even as late
as 1886 one writer says: LAS for

houses; also In fine Venice glasses of
all forms, and for want of these else.

likes"
A cupboard richly garnished" was
therefore a necessity in those days.
That was one Of the ways -eOple dis
played their wealth.
Lord Fairfax is said to have brought
tie first cupboard to this country
when he settled in Virginia.
The framework of the first coup
boards was always covered with
"cupboard carpet" and for this pur-
pose rugs of "Turkeyworke" were i'm
ported from the East and became the
first harbingers of those larger cover
ings 10 which nowadays alone the
word carpet is attached. The change
from an open stagework to an en-
closed "cupboard," in the modern
sense, was IA gradual one, and arose
out of the pilfering tendencies of the
servants of those days. "Almcrics,"
or classetS, were, therefore, places in
the lower part of the staging, into
which the food was placed. The cup"
board then became "sardeviance,"
and is frequently mentioned by old
authors. After came the cellarette.

AN OLD GRAVEYARD LOCATED

AN OLD GkANEIARD LOCAIED
Last Saturday afternoon Mr.. Leslie
Liday took Rev. DR.. P. E. Heimer to
an old graveyard located about III
miles east of Lewistown and 2 miles
from Hunting Creek, on land owned
by Harvey Ramsburg, to make further
research relative to the early settlers
of the Monocacy Valley. The grave
yard lies on the slope of a hill at the
foot of which is a wide ravine, in
which flows small rill. 1t is plainly
in the path of the old Indian trail ovel
which the early settlers came.
We found here real graveyard-a
clump of 10 trees-one elm and the
rest small tho old walnut trees, with
three regular rows of graves, and
some creeping flowers, for which the
writer has no name, weaving over the
growth Of plants set many genera.
tions ago by the hands now moulder-
ing in these graves beneath the flow
ers.
We found some fifteen or sixteen
gravestones, most of them only pro.
jecting a few inches above the
ground, having sunk down almost out
of sight. But between the stones Wis.
ible yet, are spaces where no stone
is in sight anymore, either having
been removed Or sunk clean into the
earth and this indicates that more
than twice the number indicated b!
there.
Mr.. Liday and Mr.. Ramsburg botf
remember some twenty years ago that
at least rs gravestones were visible
for the stones are year after yeal
sinking deeper and deeper. The
stones are reddish sandstone. This
shows great age, as they were in use
before marble and granite came into
vogue.
1t was the hope to find the names
and dates of deaths on the gravestones
but in this we were disappointed, as
the stones were rough and too deep
in the ground.
Of course these graves are filled
by persons who lived before the days
of sculpture and artistic inscription in
this country, but it would seem that in
some way they recorded the names
and dates on the simple head stones.
We longed for mattock and shovel
to loosen and raise stone to see
whether name and date was not on
it deeper in the ground. Some time
we shall go again and have such i'm
Elements to find, if possible, the names
of those who sleep so peacefully be-
meath the glebe on which once they
walked.
How one who has the historic in
stinct, wishes that they could awaken
just for a little and tell US of their ex-
periences of those early days, and pic
ture to US the conditions then in this
beautiful Monocacy country.
Some may be red men-some white
men-one knows not, and may never
know, but whether we shall or not
we should revere their work and hard
ships even if we know not their names
for they blazoned the way for US who
are enjoying the full fruits of their
sacrifices.
And pardon this long story-but
oh, the beautiful sight! the panoramic
view from the old graveyard-as ones
eye falls upon the glorious Catoctin
Mountains just greening-and the
wide expanse of country all about! 1t
is beatifc-and as my eyes Toasted on
the glory of it all l felt not only that
we lived in a beautiful spot of the
earth, but in one that inspires per-

mansions to which Jesus invites US
