CITY HAS CHANGED LITTLE
Modern Bagdad Remains Much as It
Was in the Days of Earun-aI-
Rashid.

Many a school child who has read
the Arabian Nights Entertainment"
and can relate the nocturnal adven-
lures of Harun- al-Rashid in ancient
Bagdad, never heard of the star wor-
shippers Of the present-day kingdom Of
Irak, in the traditional land Of Eden
and Ararat. And yet these strange
people are just as picturesque. They
turn to the north star to pray, must
be baptized every Sunday, and have
sacred book which they can begin at
either end and read toward the
middle.
Modern Bagdad differs little from
old Bagdad. Here one must become
accustomed to interminable mud walls
more monotonous than any standard
ICED rows of houses, narrow and
mainly deserted thoroughfares, dogs
always underfoot, and only moon and
starlight to guide the way at night.

HOW TO SAVE
MONEY WHEN
SHOPPING
BY MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEN
LINoLEUM
1922. Harland Il. Allen.l

You will find that the best grade Of
Hnoleum is the wisest purchase in the
end, for it wears well, while a thin
linoleum, called oil cloth, has the pat
tern stamped on like a stencil and
much hard wear causes the pattern to
rub off, leaving you only the cloth
foundation.
One great merit of Hnoleum is its
cleanliness. 1t does not absorb grease,
does not crack or groove, will wear
for years, and may be kept spotlessly
clean by frequent washing.
One does not need to buy linoleum
every day, and, so it is important to
know quality when making the original
outlay.
You judge the wearing quality of
linoleum by its surface finish and
thickness. OF course in small house
you do NOT need the heavy weight
necessary in hospitals and institutions,
but naturally the thicker the lino-
leum, the more it can be walked upon
without giving way. Always examine
the edges Of the different pieces from
which you are choosing. and select the
one which seems to have the right
thickness for the amount of.wear you
expect it to stand.
The lin0leum that has the design
extending through the whole thickness
is the most durable. You can see this
by examining along the cut edge. 1t
is called "inlaid linoleum" and is built
up of blocks and pressed together. Nat
urally the color then will last as long
as the lin0leum does.
Printed" linoleum that has the de
sign stenciled on the surface is a
cheaper quality.
There is another type that comes
without any design, and in the most at
tractive dull colors, plain dark browns,
cool grays, and so forth. These are
usually in the heavier grades, and cost
more than the standard weight limo
leums.
Do not choose Iinoleum in which
there is marked difference between
the pattern and the ground, and avoid
bright reds and green's. Modest eff
fects are most attractive, and such
materials only look cheap" when they
assert themselves.
The laying Of the linoleum is almost
more important than the difference In
quality, and unless measured and
fitted carefully, is sure to buckle" and
swell on the floor. Whenever possible,
it is best to have it laid by the firm
from which it was purchased.

WHEN YOU BUY A HAIR
BRUSH

Every woman needs at least two
hair brushes" declares a well-known
head of Chicago Embarrassing house,
lone a penetrating flat surface brush
for the scalp, the other a large, oval
bristle brush for the hair
But whether you are shopping for
one general utility brush, or. several
special purpose ones, the problem of
quality ought to be the first concern.
"A good brush not only gives more
satisfaction, but lasts a lifetime. A
cheap brush is hard on the hair, more
trouble to keep clean, and ve1y short
lived.
Brush quality depends first upon the
kind of bristle used, and then, almost
as important, on how well it is fas-
tened to the back or handle. Cheap
brushes are made up with fiber whisk
or low-grade animal bristle, while in
the best quality brushes only select
hog bristles are used. 1t is interest.
Ing to know that northern hogs pro-
duce the best brush bristles the
finest grade of all coming from a wild
Siberian boar
To see If brush has real animal
bristles or just fiber, there are three
easy tests ~ Press down the center
Of the brush, then remove the hand
suddenly. True bristles will straighten
up quicker than imitation (2) Put
a bristle in the fame of match. If
1T burns like hair, it is animal bristle,
if like paper, it is a vegetable product.
(3) Pull a bristle quickly over the
back of a knife. The true bristle will
curl down, but the fiber is likely to
break
Now as to the method of fastening
the bristles to the back of the brush.
The poorest way is to glue them, for
they will soon loosen and come out.
In the hard rubber brush, a very eff
fective way is to set the bristles in
molten rubber, and then finish when
cool.
Other good quality brushes have the
bristles "drawn" or seWed in with wire.
This is a fairly simple process when
the back has veneer top to hide the
stitches, but in the solid handles a
heavy wire must be run through the
back to catch in the loops of bent
bristles which have been showed up
into small holes made to receive them.
This locks the bristles in and makes
an Everlasting" brush.
A little examination will show which
OF the methods was used. In the solid
handle brush you can usually see
where two wire holes have been
plugged in the front end.

The sun climbed higher, whiter, hot

on the lava slope, and each time he

Those waiting days grew into weeks.

soon he averred that, strapped to

There was rejoicing in camp, and
plans were eagerly suggested. The
Yaqui happened to be absent. When
he returned the rangers told him they
were now ready to undertake the
Journey back across lava and cactus.
Yaqui shook his head. They de.
clared again their intention.
"No!" replied the Indian, and his
deep, sonorous voice rolled out upon
the quiet Of the arroyo. He spoke
briefly then. They had waited too
long. The smaller waterholes back
in the trail were dry. The hot sum-
