ACCORDING TO THEIR MEANS"
Contributions of Church Members, a Century Ago, Evidently Meant
 Mere Than They Do Now.

Fresh-laid eggs are frequently de posted on the contribution plate in some of the backwoods Episcopal churches of the South. Which goes to show that the spirit of giving hasn't changed so very much in the 100 years of the Church Missionary society just being rounded out. The first report of the society, dated May 30, 1923, was dug up the other day, and while it shows no contribution of eggs, a score of other articles of merchandise seem to have found their way to the plate from people who gave "according to their means"
 This report, for instance, shows that back in 1921 David Snethen gave basket of groceries for the support of the missionaries; Stephen North con- tributed a medicine chest; William Rowland, a cross-cut saw; Joe and John Needles, two sieves; s. Masy, a coffee mill. John and T. Cluly con- tributed, alas a singularly empty gift "a safe. John BursOn came along with a tub, whether bath or wash is not stated. O. Buckley is credited on the books with Production on hat," $1.5O; John McAllister donated ther- mOmeter.
 Among the other miscellanies are hymn books, slates, spades, shoes, trousers, chairs, soap, brides and locks. Finally, from one Richard Markall there is hogshead of tobacco, which encourages the hope that some good missionary of the church in his lonely station afar off enjoyed con- fortable smoke.-Pittsburgh Chronicle Telegraph.

Princess Elizabeth.

Elizabeth, the second of the ill-fated daughters of the ill-fated Charles I, was born at St. James palace in 1885. When she was six years old civil war broke out in England and the re maining nine years of her life were passed with strangers. She saw her father only few times, the last be- ing on the day before his execution Charles took the child on his knee and gave her such advice as might be expected from a father about to die. A year and half after his death she, too, at the age of fifteen, breathed her last. By some it was said Crom- well had decided to apprentice her to buttonmaker, but historians deny this. It Is known the protector pro- vided amply for her during her short and unhappy lifetime. A monument was erected for her by Queen Victoria on the occasion of rebuilding the church at Newport, where she was buried.-Chicago Journal

MOURNS OVER "0LD TIMES"
Elderly North Carolina Woman Thinks Present-D Day People Behind Those
 of Her Generation.

Bright and chipper, Mrs. Lou Thack- CT of Mount Airy, N. C., celebrated her one hundred and eleventh birthday here yesterday at the home of a grand daughter, Mrs. J. M. EdmundsOn, says a dispatch from Greensboro, N. O., to the New York World.

He "Ranq the Bell"

A number of welI-known newspa- per men returning the other night from one of the summer resorts had just managed to get to the city when their engine commenced to slow down, relates the Washington Star. A hurried examination disclosed the fact that the gas tank was nearly empty. Two of them elected to ven ture forth in search Of an all-night garage while the other two remained in the car. The searchers, after trav- ersing many streets, finally came across station on which was a sign "Open all night" No signs of life, however, were visible. Finally one of the scribes happened to notice a rope protruding through window of the building in which were kept oils, greases, accessories, etc. Giving the rope vigorous pull, he nearly yanked the custodian of the service station out of bed, the rope being attached to the caretender's foOt--a rather new and novel way of ringing the door bell

HEIRS OF THE MIDDLE AGES
Artists of Today Are But Carrying On the Work of the Old Master
 Craftsmen.

The art of the Middle ages is really the art of youth. It has no finaIity, because that which it expresses can never be finished It lives with un- measured potentialities still before it. Until the Renaissance, and mems sub- sequent concentration upon commerce and science, 1t seldom rested in the West, but grew from one stage to an other-as in our still living arts-Of painting, and music, poetry, and the drama-we still move and change and grow.
 The Middle ages were the age of youth. do not mean merely of young nations, but of men who were build ing up the future and had unlimited development before them. It was our youth, and we are growing from it. In so far as our art nves-the art of our intelligentsia-it Is growing from that stem. In so far as 1t Is dead, it is in those forms of art which have ignored their own percentage, such as architecture, ornament, the crafts, and much sculpture, and have tried to form themselves from ancient models in the pedantry of the schools. They are cut off from the stem and they langUish. But painting, like music and poetry, has gone on without a break and is alive today. Let us take heart. We are the heirs of those old craftsmen.-Percy Dearmer.

MRird of PassanA.m

The earliest use of the term bird of passage" is found in eighteenth book of the Natural History of Pliny the Elder (23-27 A. D., where he says |: '"The bird of passage known to us as the cuckoo" and the term has since been applied to birds which migrate with a season from a colder to a warmer, CT from a warmer to a colder climate, divided into summer birds of passage and winter birds of passage. Such birds always breed in the cOun- try to which they resort in summer, that is, in the colder of their homes.
 The term is said to have been first applied to sailors by Bacon who de- clared that the uncertainty, instability and fluctuating state of human life was most aptly represented by those sailing the ocean.

 'Then you didn't lose your money?' gasped Bob Thorold. But why did you start all this?'

ALL DOGS NOT COLOR BLIND
Belief That Has Long Been Held Is Now Declared to Be Entirely
 Wrong Impression.

An eminent authority once asserted that all dogs were color blind. He quoted, in support of his statement, the case of two pug dogs who were unable to distinguish the difference in color of the plates from which they were fed.
 The color sense may he entirely lacking in pug dogs, which are not re- nowned for their sagacity; but to as- sume that every other dog is color blind is deduction far from the truth.
 Not only can dogs be trained 10 rec 0gnize color, but they possess the nat ural color sense in a very high degree. They can differentiate between vari- Ous subtle shades and tones, and their likes and disIikes are strongly devel- Oped.
 A fox terrier has been known to fol- low at q distance a perfect stranger, solely because she was wearing a dress similar in color to that worn by his mistress. Only upon approaching the woman did he find his mistake.

Vast Sum Spent for Food.

The people of the United States spend more than $49,OOO,OOO a day for food, or nearly $1,5OO,OOOOOO a month. Nearly One-thrd of the money goes for bread, potatoes, fruits, sugar and oth- CT food of d vegetable nature. More than twO-thirds is spent for meat, fish, eggs, cheese and lard.

Advised "FIyino Ships" for MaiIs.
 More than 100 years ago when the United States mails were being trans ported by carriers on horseback, the editor of the Freeman's Journal, now the NOrristown Pa) Herald sug- gested the use of flying ships"
 In the issue of the Freemans Jour- nal of March 1, 1922, the editor wrote:
 eve would advise the postmaster general to avail himself of the novel and the very ingenious flying machine, invented by James Bennett of Phila- delphia, by which we conceive, the mails would be transported with more celerity and their arrival at the places of destination be much more certain than is the case at present"
 POstOffice records show that in 1888 wonderful feat was performed in carrying the mail and news dispatches, by relays of horses every five miles, between Washington and New York, in 15 hours.

CochineaI.

C0chineal originated in the Mexican town of Oaxaca. Thence the industry spread to Central America, the Ca nary islands and other parts of the world, The Indians of Oaxaca had used the brilliant and permanent scar- let dye to color their sarapes, prob ably for centuries. without discover. ing that they were indebted to a mi- mute insect which feeds on a certain species of cactus. They thought they were baking or boiling natural prod uct of the plant itself. However, they were perfectly familiar with its vir- tues, as they were with many of the native dye woods. Here are still to be bought the best Indian blankets in the republic, of eitLer wool or cotton, dyed with vegetable colors.

Ancient weIsb Customs.

The Welsh girl gives her lover a birchen branch as a token that she accepts him. In Wales, too, the May pole about which the villagers danced and played joyous games was always a birch. Thus the "bedwen" was a permanent feature of the village green, and the greatest game of all was to steal the. bedwen. This, when accom- plished, was celebrated with peculiar festivities Possibly out of these mid night marauding expeditions and their accompanying festivities came the superstition that on Walpurgis night the eve of May day-witches and warlocks held high carnival.

Music.

Music is one of the four necessities of life. The other three are food, shel- ter and clothing. So says Ubert Urquhart, talking to convention of men, who make music an industry.
 This Is true, admitting that life is on an emotional basis, which 1t is.
 Any period of history is mirrored in Its popular music. Jazz music came with the jazz period. It is passing out as the national temperament becomes normalized. If you want to keep an eye on "the trend of the times," watch the new music as it comes in. If we react to wailing tunes, 1t will mean that the public considers the outlook dlscouraging.
