spot, as it is within motoring distance

Russian Hunor

The Russian people are generally re-
garded as lacking in humor; when they
do manifest something like humor it is
so mixed with pathos that it resembles
smile seen through tears. At the
present time, certainly, because they
are suffering the most pitiable and
tragic lot Of all peoples, there is little
opportunity for them to attempt hu-
NOR. Yet some of them freely indulge
in satirical merrymaking at the ex-
pense of the rest of the world. Thus
the Russian paper 'Izvestia" publishes
humorous and sometimes appropriate
comments upon Genoa and the peoples
there represented. Thus:
"America.-There lived once in Eu-
rope poor, unfortunate man who
called himself Christopher Columbus.
Whatever he did was pursued by ba d
luck. In an hour of despair he re-
solved to wreak vengeance on Europe.
He went and discovered America. In
Genoa they erected monument to th:s
terrible man, and in order to celebrate
this event there the present conven-
tion was assembled.
"England.-The country of Shake
speare and Lloyd George. The former
was an actor; the latter is likewise
one. The former was creator of
world historical dramas; the latter
would likewise be one. The former
made Much Ado About Nothing; the
latter likewise. The former raised the
question, TO be or not to be?' before
which the other, too, has placed him
self. The only difference between the
two is: Shakespeare created for him
self place in history; Lloyd George
has offered it violence.

The Calis.f.enics Of Relot;pity

Professor Einstein was recently ex-
pounding his theory of RELATIVELY to an
audience on the left bank of the Rhine,
and as the majority of his. hearers were
women he deemed it necessary to use
the simplest of illustrations. He de-
ciared that the system of co-ordinates
finds its most perfect realization Gin
the act of man who succeeded in
taking off his waistcoat without remov-
ing his coat"
Ihls simple manner of illustrating
such an abstract theory was keenly
appreciated, and at night at home the
few gentlemen who had attended the 5
o'clock lecture, to realize relativity,
tried to take off their waistcoats with
out removing their coats.
II is not told how they succeeded!

The Kaja-kaja

The French missionary Father Ney-
ems, writing from New Guinea, de-
scribes some curious habits of the ma
tives of that country.
These savages, strong and cour-
ageous, paint their foreheads and
noses red or black and surround their
eyes with white or yellow circles. They
adorn their nostrils with the. claws of
birds of prey or the tusks of wild hogs.
IN their ears they suspend the most
curious objects; thus, Father Neyens
saw one wearing an old coffee spoon.
The body is tattooed and covered
with figures. in relief. To apply these
they undergo the most excruciating op-
erations. Stretched on the sand, the
patient is lacerated with a bamboo
which causes acute pains. The burrows
traced in the flesh are filled up with
clay and loan, so as to leave deem
sears.
The Kaja-Kaja never bathe. By wav
OF compensation they rub the body with
all kinds of unguents, so that thcv al
ways emit an unbearable odor. which

Crown Prince Umberto
Most Important of Family

The most important member of the
royal family is the Crown Prince Um-
berto, who, during the last few months.
has been visiting the different prov
inces SO that the Italian people may
become acquainted with their future
KING. He has made decidedly favor
able impression on the people. His
smile has captured their fancy, and
Wherever he Goes even though it is
shopping in Rome, his motor car ia

ious to see him at close range. In the
royal encourage he also is very popu-
lar, though he, too, has led q very quiet
life and has never become intimate
with the sons of the gentlemen and
ladles-in waiting. From very timid
boy he has grown into young man
ready for his future job. His father
considers him suitable to take his
place, and would willingly abdicate, but
this, too, would be a disappointment
to the people, who admire the patriot
ism and simplicity Of the ''first citizen"
of Italy.
Even those who consider a mon
archy an obsolete institution are
united in admitting that though Victor
Emmanuel is king couldn't be a

virtually bosses the entire
Italian royal family, including her
brother, Prince Umberto. She has in
herited her mothers beauty but not
her timidity. 1t was she who planned
her trip to England. Being nearly
twenty-one, and not having been out of
Italy, she told her royal mother that
she must get about to see the world.
Probably no commoner's family have
lived such a dull life as have the royal
children. Their mother was so afraid
that they would get wrong ideas of
life that she rarely allowed them even
to have friends in to tea. AS for
going to visit the children of her
ladies-inwaiting, such an innovation
was never even suggested. 1t was only

lolanda Goes Shopping
On Her Own Account

During the last few months Iolanda
and has ordered several dresses, nearly
all of them coats and skirts. Her
friends say that it is this fondness for
coats and skirts which has decided her
to order some VIXEN she is in London.
Until this year she never went to the
opera in the evening, as the Queen is
q great stay-athome and prefers visit
ing hospitals and charitable institu-
tions during the daytime, which leaves
her ready 10 retire early at night.
This clustering around the home
hearth is not at all to the taste Of
Princess Iolanda and her sister, Ma
falda. They have gradually taken to
going to the theater, accompanied by
waiting. AS no royal balls
have been given for seven years,
neither has been introduced to the
inner circle of society, which is their
right, but it is certain that next VIM
ter IoIanda must have coming out
party, and Mafalda, too, will be intro
duced.
Society is not much in either Of
these girls life, as they have been
brought up to love the open air. When
ever they have chance they go motor
ing around the country with only a
gentleman in waiting and chauffeur.
The latter has little to do, as Princess
Mafalda has already been given her
Permit as chauffeuse and very clever
sEe she is. Any visitor to Rome can
see her of an afternoon driving about
the Villa Borghese and the Pincio, in
her little two-seater, with small seat

Princess Deals Directly
With Tailor in Buying

no doubt the question of a separate
allowance for Iolanda might have been
held IN abeyance had not letter been
received from an Italo-American tailor
begging the princess to fill in an in
closed form with her measurements.
stating what sort of dress she would
like the patriotic overseas tailor to
make her. The royal sewing woman
was called in and the measurements
taken and sent the same day, with a
letter from the princess saying that
she would like q riding habit, as no
one had ever made her one which
fitted her perfectly. This step was not
according to royal etiquette, as
lolanda should have sent the tailor's
application to the secretarial staff of
the royal household, who, in turn,
would have written formal note in
closing the measurements. Instead
the princess is modern enough and
feminine enough to want to attend to
things in a hurry. She and her sisters
and her brother all waited anxiously
for several months, and Mafalda, who
is a terrible tease, worried her poor
sister Iolanda because an American
tailor had wanted to play joke on
her.
But after three months were over
box was brought to the royal resi-
dence, Villa Saboia, outside the
Salara gate, and in it was a wonder
full riding habit Of covert cloth and
also skirt, in case the princess some
times rode a side saddle. The suit
fitted beautifully and other costumes
would no doubt have been ordered
but the tailor refused to accept pay
ment for the habit, insisting that the
letter written so kindly and simply by
the princess was enough reward. Of
course, under the instances, the
royal princess could not possibly &C
cept further kindnesses,
This bit of independence on the part
of Iolanda led her to broach the SUBJ
ject of 81 separate allowance. The
matter was talked over with the friend
and counsellor, Admiral Bonaldi (for
he had been promoted), and finally the
Queen agreed.

HOW TO SELECT SEED CORN

Selecting seed from the field just
previous to cutting the crop, or when
the corn is ripe enough to cut, is
by far the most satisfactory method
of selection. Not only does this
early gathering insure plenty of
time for the ears to dry out thorcly
before freezing weather, but il per.
mits the selection of ears from the
most vigorous and healthy plants and
from the stalks that most nearly
meet the growers ideal in regard to
height, location of ear. the angle of
the ear. etc. Like produces like and
continued selection for these charac-
teristics will tend to produce a strain
Of corn in which all the plants ap-
proach the ideal sought for.
IN general. We may say the vari-
cites of corn grown in Kentucky
would be improved if we could Sc
cure more stocky and shorter plants,
with the ears carried uniformly low
er down on the stalk. Such a type
of corn would be easier to harvest
and be less likely to be blown down
by strong winds. In addition, it is
desirable that the tips of the ears
hang downward, as such ears shed
rain better and are less likely to be
damaged. Another desirable char
acteristic is uniformity in maturity.
Only by field selection can we hope
to influence the type of plant.
Experiments have not shown that
any particular type of ear is better
than another as far as yield is con-
cerned. Thus the grower may suit
his own fancy in selecting a type of
ear. Uniformity of type is desirable.
however, as an indication of careful
