Tlbetan Wool Market.

At Patsao In the wilds OF Tibet Is
held the wool market TO which come
annually the merchants from the rich
plains Of india. The Tibeians barter
the ieeces OF their fiocks for the rice,
tea and cotton with which the pack
mules Of the traders are laden. The
wool of the Tibetan sheep is In much
demand. hut as the animals cannot live
below 10000 feet, prospective pur-
chasers are obliged 10 climb the rocky
sleeps into the very heart Of the Himn-
lnyas. The market opens about the
middle of July when herdsmen and
merchants pitch their respective camps
In a high valley 1900 feet above sea-
level. The sheep are shorn on the spot
and emerge looking Incredibly slim
and forlorn. from a mass Of wool which
lies on the ground like buffalo robe.
When the market IN made. the fleeces
are wound about with ropes and
pressed into as small compass as pos
sible. They are then loaded upon the
pacli-animals. and masters and mules
turn their baeks upon The inhospltnble
hills. well pleased to begin the descent
toward their native plains.

GLOVE BY NO MEANS MODERN
Its Use Can Be Traced With Unerrino
Accuracy Back to the Most Re-
mote Times.

The origin of the glove dates back
to remote antiquity. There is reason
to believe that the ancient Persians
wore them, since 1t Is mentioned in the
"Cyropoedia" of Xenophon that on one
occasion Cyrus went without his
gloves. 1t is also known that some
kind OF protective coverings for the
hands were used by the Romans in GER
tain kinds of manual labor and in bat
tie. The English scholar, Dawkins,
discovered on bone dating from pre-
historic days design which ne
claimed to be a picture of glove. On
the monuments of the Pharaohs In
Egypt there are represented among
the tributes paid by subjected people
gloves Of the shape of the long suede
worn by modern women.
Homer speaks Of the gloves worn
by the ancient Greeks In garden toll,
and, though crude mitten may be
meant, IL is also thought that the an
clients knew the fingered glove Gloves
Of the ancients corresp0nded in color
with their foot coverings. The sandals
and bootiike stockings were generally
white or pink. Mittens are among the
dress accessories found with mummies
OF priestesses dating from the 2fst
dynasty of Egypt They were OF the
same material as the upper garment.

REGINALD DENNY
IN NOVEL ROLE

Reginald Denny has portrayed many
roles of "highbrow" nature on the
SCREEN 'Disraeli' and other feat
ures. He has also built his personal
popularity with the fans on one of the
catchiest roles ever written into a
scenario-that dashing hero of "The
Leather Pushers," Universals series
of H. C. Witwer's short features.
Now comes the Kentucky Derby"
to the Peerless Theatre next Wednes-
day and Thursday, with Denny feat.
ured in romantic characterization.
Universal chose the role for Denny,
believing him to have one Of the most
attractive promatic personalities on
the screen. He's the kind of figure in
The Kentucky Derby, that might be
found in a Sir Walter Scott novel,
dashing. spirited and imbued with N.
vincible courage.
In signing Denny for long period,
to play leads and featured roles in
special productions, Universal sought
to test out the public on his appeal
and find the kind of pictures in which
he is liked best 1t speaks well for
his future that the final choice places
him in a universal-Jewel attraction
OF high calibre.
King Baggot directed THE Ken
lucky Derby from George Hul's see
mario OF an old stage success of Chas
I. Dazeys. Denny. Lillian Rich. Ger
trude Astor, Lionel Belmore, Kingsley
Benedict and others have the princi-
pal parts. The picture contains act
ual scenes of the Kentucky Derby,
won by Norwich.

MANY LEGENDS OF HlAWATHA
Said to Have Made His Home on
Mackinac Island-Why He Can
not Return to Earth.

Some legends credit Hiawatha with
having made his home at Mackinac
island, and from that point as a cen
ter, to have made a new earth around
him. According to the story the fight
with his father began on the upper
Mississippi. and the powders found
along its banks were their missiles.
The south shore of Lake Superior was
the scene of his conflict with the ser
pents. He hunted the great beaver
around Lake Superior, and brought
down his dam at Sault Ste. Marie. A
depression in "A rock on the southern
edge of Michipicotea bay is where he
alighted after a jump across the lake.
In larger depression, near Thunder
bay, Lake Superior, he sat when
smoking his last pipe. The big rocks
on the east side of Grand Traverse
bay. near Antrim. are the bones Of
stone monster that he slew.
Some legends say that Hlawntha
Is buried under mountain three
miles long. on the east side OF Thun-
der bay. which. from the water, re-
sembles man lying on his back.
Others say that Hiawatha now lives
at the top Of the earth, amid the ice,
and directs the sun. He has to live
in cold country because. II he were
to return. he would set the earth on
FIRE with his footsteps.

FORTUNE-TELLING OLD "ART"
Delvine Into the Future by the Aid Of
Tea-Leaves Survival OF Ancient
Superstition.

To tell fortune by tea-leaves, you
turn your cup upside down in the sau-
Ger and whirl 1t around three times
after drinking your tea. Turn the cup
again and examine the leaf-fragments
clinging to bottom and sides. Then you
can read your future in what the
leaves look like. OF course you can't
count on 1t being true, but you can
get some harmless fun out of it. There
were many other old superstitions.
In Egypt, bowl or cup was filed with
water and boy gazed into 1t until he
became hypnotized and "snw things"
The magician interpreted what the boy
thought he saw. The strolling magi-
clans Of North Africa perform the
same trick today by means Of drop
of ink in boys hand. When Joseph
sent his messengers to find his silver
cup in Benjamins sack, he instructed
them to say: "Is not this my lords
cup in which my lord drinketh and
wherein he divineth?" Hence the mys-
tic qualities OF the cup. Ceromancy
consisted OF dropping melted wax into
water and divinlng by the forms the
wax assumed in cooling 1t is very
old art, but tea was only introduced
into Europe in the Seventeenth CEN
tury; yet the primitive mind still sub
slsting in man at once seized upon the
fairgrounds as means of foretelling
the future, as that same mind had
seized upon the melted wax thousands
of years before.
