Dame Partinuron.

The original Dame Darlington was
a respectable old lady who lived at
Sidmouth, in Devonshire, Eng. Her
cottage stood on the beach and dur
ing a severe storm in November, 1924,
the sea rose to such height as
gradually to invade the old lady's
residence.

she could secure with mops and
brooms, as fast as the water entered
the house mopped it out again until
at length the waves had the mastery
and she was compelled to retire to
an upper story. The first public al
fusion to the circumstances was made
by Sidney Smith in speech on the
reform bill wherein he compared the
conservative opposition to the effort

VenezueIa's Pearls.

The island of Margarita, off the
coast of Venezuela, is one of the most
celebrated centers of pearl fishery.
The Spsniards, in the days of Column
bus, found the natives of Margarita
and the neighboring mainland decked
out with pearls, and the pearl-produc-
ing oysters of that locality have never
since failed in their productiveness.
Metal scoops are dragged over the
oyster beds, and the interest of the
search eliminates when the shells
thus secured are opened. A black
pearl is a rarity commanding high
price. Fine white pearls, If of good
ulster, are also very valuable. A
company of Frenchmen enjoys con-
cession from the Venezuelan govern
ment to fish for pearls with diving
apparatus

ALL HAD ORIGIN IN EAST
Architectural Ornaments in Use Today
First Designed by Mesopo-
tamian Builders.

The blue-domed mosque of the Imam
Shahzada Husain, in Kazvin, carries
on a tradition that extends back to
the days of the Sassanid sultans of
Persia, back even to the remOter
times Of Assyria, according to a writer
in Asia Magazine. The cupola and the
ogive, distinctive marks of Moslem
architecture. be it in Egypt or India
or Turkey, had their origin in MesOpo-
tamia, where wood for rafters and
lintels has always been scarce and
construction has been chiefly in brick.
The minarets that rise gracefully
above every Mahommedan city have
been reflected through time from the
Chaldean ObservatOries and the Tower
of Babel The rich Ornamentation of
enameled tiles on dome and walls and
the Overlay of brilliant metals that
mosques, are also heritages from an
tiquity. The columns of mosque in
teriors are derived from classic
Greece and Rome. The designs worked
in tiles or in stucco may in many
cases be traced back to ancient
models, and they are found, repeated
over and over again, in the pottery,
the textiles, the carpets of the East.
The wars of the Crescent carried this
architecture into the West through
Spain and Byzantium into the HAST
through India. It's influence may be
traced in buildings the world over.

Hair Pulling Time.

Eight-year-old Frances had been
taught by her parents the art Of keep
ing a secret and it irritates her to be
suspected of telling anything she is
asked not to tell. The other day she
was visiting Aunt Grace, who also
had another young lady visitor. Aunt
Grace had warned Frances not to tell
the conversation, so she began to talk
things which were secrets when the
visitor, looking at Frances, said: Lit

Lizard Lives on His Tail.

Beaded lizards are seldom seen by
day. In the dry places where they
live they lie hidden until the GOODNESS
of evening brings them forth. During
the hottest part OF the year they re-
main in a state OF torpor. They eat
frogs, worms, centipedes, ants and
other insects, as we'll as the eggs Of
frogs, birds and other lizards. III good
times the extra nourishment is stored
up as fat In the tail. When food is
scarce this fat can be absorbed and
carried to the hungry cells through
the blood, and thus the ella monster
may go without other food for sew
eral months. In midsummer the fe-
male lays from six to thirteen soft
shelled eggs in a hole scraped out of
the damp sand near a stream, and
then covered After being incubated
in the sun for about four weeks the
young are Matched. They are four
inches long and brighter colored than
the parents The mouth is armed with
many fang-like teeth arising from the
inner edge of the jaws. Four teeth on
each side of each jaw are grooyed
deeply on the front surface and slight
1y on the rear. A poison sac opens
between the Lip and the base Of each
grooved tooth of the lower jaw.
