USED FOR MARKING SLAVES
Earrings Had Origin That Was Exceedingly Prosalc.

The custom of wearing earrings in Its primitive significance originated in marking the slave. Later it was adopted as a fashionable distinction.
 From the child, hanging cherries on the ears, to the suspension of costly gems from them. earrings have indi- cated the love of adornment from cen turies before the Christian era.
 Today the dainty trinkets are made to affiX to the lobe of the ear by screws which offer no initiating pain ment upon the disfiguring process of piercing holes in the daintiest part of a well-shaped ear.
 Greek and Roman ladies gave much attention to beautiful designs, proof of which may be seen in museums, which preserve the ancient specimens jealously. English ladies wore them at the time of the Norman conquest.
 There Is an engraving extant of Elizabeth, queen of Bohemia, with an oval pearl in the left ear, and care fully affixed to a narrow ribbon guard Shakespeare records their use by men. He Is himself represented In a DOT trait with a thin gold ring in his ear. Van Dyck's portrait of Charles the First depicts the monarch with a sumptuous pearl, which formed the melancholy bequest of his grand daughter, the princess of Orange, after his execution.
 Today thin gold wires may be seen in the ears of fishermen in some lo- calities. Sailors were great observers of the custom, though one sees fewer now than formerly. Peasantry of Spain, Italy and Sicily, as we'll as gypsies of both sexes, are much at- tached to the use of earrings.
 Most elaborate jewels occupied the attention of the old masters, who ob- viously appreciated their decorative adjunct to feminine features. Some times the "eardrops" measured three inches in length.
 The jewellers art has given of it's choicest in designs for ear adornment Josiah Wedgwood turned his genius to the manufacture of cameo medallions in jasper ware for earrings.
 In the shops one sees today possibly greater regard for the intrinsic beauty of precious stones; they are almost invisibly mounted, their allur- ing color and sparkle emphasize the delicate flesh tints of their wearers, and in the lesser values of the jew eler's craft ivory, jade, amber, tor toiseshell, coral, jet, all lend their aid very agreeably to the establishment of the modern womans ears, observes the Montreal Herald.

REFILLING SACKS IS
 PROHIBITED BY LAW
Food and Drugs Act Is Violated
 by Some Feed Dealers.
Federal Officers Have Been Instructed to Watch for Interstate Ship ments of Feeds AduIterated
 or Misbranded

(Prepared by the United States Department
 of Agriculture.)
 Some feed dealers are refilling used feed sacks stamped or printed with the name of the manufacturer. and the brand name of the feed that was originally in the sack, so that the names and brands are not true in reference to the feed in the sack after refilling, according to officials of the bureau of chemistry, United States De partment of Agriculture, who are charged with the enforcement of the Food and Drugs act.
 A feed dealer of Iowa was recently cited to a hearing under the Federal Food and Drugs act for shipping into interstate commerce a molasseS feed In bags which he had refilled but which bore the name of another feed manufacturer. The sacks also bore a brand name under which the original owner of the sacks sold a stock feed of much higher grade than the feed with which the sacks were rehlled.
 The Federal Food and Drugs act does not require the name of the man. uIdcIurGF OT tue DFduu HdIuG to dp- pear on sacks of feed coming with in its jurisdiction, according to off, cials of the bureau, but if the name of the manufacturer and brand are given on the sack they must be true. The Food and Drugs act prohibits the use of any statements on foods or feeds that are false or mislead- ing in any particular.
 A dealer who contemplates refilling used feed sacks on which Is printed the name of another manufacturer or any statements that are not correct when applied to the product he uses in refilling the sacks should be very careful to see that all such statements are obliterated.
 Inspectors have been instructed to look out for interstate shipments of stock feeds which are adulterated or misbranded in this or any other partic- ular Appropriate action will be talk en in all cases found to be in violation of the law, 1t Is said

CLAN UNDER BAN
Effort to Extingulsh Very Name
 of MaCGregor.
Extraordinary Legislation Brought About by the Turbulence and Un-
 rullness of the Victims.

Old AthoI MacGregor of MacGregor, who has just passed away at the age of eighty-six at Ard-Choille, near Perth, had taken a very active part in organizing the impending celebration by the historic Scottish clan of Mac Gregor of the repeal just 100 years ago of the iniquitous law, unique of its kind, which forbade the use of the name of MacGregor in Scotland un- der the penalty of death, Henry Pickard writes in the Cincinnati En- quirer.
 The MacGregors claim descent from Gregor, third son of Alpin, one of the Scottish kings of the Eighth century, It is a clan which furnished Sir Walter Scott the hero of his most famous his torical romance, Rob Roy" Cor Red Rob")-a clan which on account of it's turbulence and unruliness was sub jected at the beginning of the Seven teenth century to one of the most ex- traordinary pieces of legislation that is to be found in the annals of any of the civilized countries of the world. After a bloody battle between the MacGregors and the Colquhouns at Flen Fruin-that Is to say, the Glen of Sorrow-and which was character ized by the utmost ferocity, the vic torious MacGregors putting all their adversaries to the sword, law was enacted at Edinburgh, dated April 8, 1903, bearing the sign manual of James VI, of Scotland (James l. of Great Britain), wiping out the exist ence of the very name of MacGregor and decreeing the penalty of death for any one calling himself Mac Gregor. This law was subsequently confirmed by an act of parliament in 1917 at Edinburgh.
 Another act of parliament In 1917 even went so far as to extend the penalty of death to any former Mac Gregors who should presume to as- semble in greater numbers than four. In fact, every effort was made to blot out the clan of MacGregor, and thus transformed into outlaws, with the hand of every one against them, thou sands of them were put to death, both by the sword and by the scaffold. On the restoration of Charles IL, by reason of the services which the Mac Gregors had rendered under other names than their own, the various laws against the clan were annulled. But a few years later they were re- enacted and remained in force until less than 100 years ago-that is to say, until the early part of the Nine teenth century. The MacGregors ac- cepted extinction by assuming the names of the clans among which they had sought refuge. Some of the Mac Gregors came to America, and one of them achieved distinction as an Amer ican naval commander, known by the name of Commodore MacGregor, father of the American wife of Gen. Lord Abnger, third peer of his line.

Giving Ocular Proof.

Several of us had taken a ferry trip from Detroit to Canada and had bought several souvenirs. I had also invested in good amount of lace. Hoping to evade the customs officer I rolled the lace on a card and stuck it in the top of my stocking. Alas! I didn't get it down far enough.
 I had gone considerable distance past the customs booth when the card fell out on the walk beside me. Imag- inc my sensation. I looked back to see customs officer standing with his foot on an end of my lace and the whole length of my treasured stuff strung out along the walk between us.
 ~"Be sure your goods don't unravel next time, miss," he called out.-Ex- change.

BEES PLAY IMPORTANT PART
Especially Valuable to Orchard Owner During Rainy Season In the
 Blooming Period.

Bees play an important part. in the production of fruit in cross polf1nating and fertiiizing the flowers. They carry and distribute pollen. Prof. w. A. Price, entomolOgist at Purdue says bees are especially important to the orchard owner in rainy, backward sea- sons, during the blooming period
 When 1t is rainy the flies, butterflies, and the wind pollinating agents, may not function, but the bees work be- tween showers and are often responsi- ble for the success Of the fruit crop.
