was thinking very hard and fast, anC
as she lay under the bushes looking to
ward the place where her husband
was trapped her bright eyes saw a tree
which had fallen right across the river
which was deep and full of rocks, that
ran through the woods.
Mrs. Fox's thoughts began to come
fast. She jumped up and ran out from
her hiding place straight to the tree
and ran along 1t making a sound that
attracted Mr.. Dogs attention.
He stopped barking, for there on the
fallen tree he saw as he thought, Mr..
Fox, though he had been sure a sec
ond before he had seer the tip of Mr..
Fox's nose among the leaves between
the rocks.
Mr.. Dog left the place he was guard
ing and went toward the enc of the
tree which was on his side of the river.
Then he stepped back and looked be-
tween the rocks. He didn't see a thing
of Mr.. Fox, for at the moment he
stopped barking Mr.. Fox, thinking Mr..
Man was in sight with the gun, HAD
crouched deeper under the leaves.
Mr.. Dog was frantic; he thought he
had lost Mr.. Fox after all his bark
ing to Mr.. Man, and If Mr.. Man had
heard him, and after running all the
way from the farm found there was
no fox, he would be pretty angry.
Mr.. Dog went to the end Of the fall
en- tree and ran along 1t, while Mrs.
Fox stood a little way from the end
on that side Of the river looking right
at him, but when he reached the mid
die of the tree she gave a leap into
the air and down she came on the tree,
which gave 1t a shake, and off tumbled
Mr.. Dog into the water among the
rocks.
Mrs. Fox bounded to the side Of the
river where her husband was a prIs-
oner and called to him that the coast
was clear, and out came Mr.. Fox In
twinkling Of an eye and away they
for home, while Mr.. Dog scram-
bled for a footing among the slippery
in the river. When he at last
got to the bank he did not look for
Fox, for one foot had been hurt
when he fell, and as he limped toward
lis home Mr.. and Mrs. Fox were safe
n their home laughing at the way
hey had again fooled their enemy.

Mrs. Fox, who had been following her
husband as ne was chased by Mr.. Dog
through the fields and down the road
to the woods.
Not that Mrs. Fox expected her hus-
band to need her help, but one could
neve be certain and by keeping be-
hind Mr.. Dog at a distance she was
pretty sure to be safe.
But here they were In the woods
and Mr.. Fox had run over some rocks
just to give Mr.. Dog a hard chase, and
before he knew 1t down he went be-
tween the rocks, and while he was not
a bit hurt, there was only one way to
get out, and Mr.. Dog was standing
right at that very place barking fit to
split his throat.
Mr.. Fox began to think of home and

OLDEST ARTICLES IN WORLD
Chipped Stones, Found in England,
Believed to Be Most AnsIsnt
of Made implements.

According to an English %antiquary,
the oldest manufactured articles In
h world are probably some Clipped
stones found on the Kentish Weald,
In England.
Far back, countless centuries before
any attempt at civilization, men were
chipping stones into tools and weapons.
Knives, axes, hammers, scrapers,
s~pearheads, a~rrowheads, even avis for
piercing skins, and roughly notched
saws for cutting bone were made Of
mini or ebert or obsidian-any stone
that would chip to a cutting edge and
hard enough to stand wear.
Some are clumsy things, ONE beau
ttful in design and finish, and their
varying workmanship indicates far
greater differences between the men
who made them than exists between
an Egyptian king of 400 B. G. and
an English citizen of this age.
Solutrean laurel leaves" or "shoul-
dered points"-spearheads from Soul
tire, in France-are exquisite things,
graceful in shape and finished In a
n which would be a credit to
any modern craftwork. Yet they were
made, according to some assertions,
over 10000 years ago.
Earlier still, Mousterian implements
from the cave of LIE Moustier, varying
In shape and size, all have the bust
nesslike wavy cutting edge distinctive
of their period. Centuries before
these the ruder Ohellean and %Strepyan
Implements were made, their unworked
butts still showing the natural surface
of the stone. And away back beyond
them, thousands and thousands of
years ago, In the very dawn Of human
life, were made the "Eoliths" of the
Kentish Weald.

Blind Spots.

The world has its blind spots" fol
thunder and lightning, says a bulletin
of the National Geographic society
The brilliant flash Of lightning and
the crackle and rumble of thunder
would be as impossible Of conception
by many Eskimos as would "solid wa.
ter" by equatorial savages.
In general the frequency Of thunder
storms decreases as one goes north,
until within the Arctic and Antarctic
Circles they seldom occur.
When Katmai volcano, ON the Alas
kan peninsula, erupted in 1912, some
Of the adult natives Of the vicinity
were more terrified at the lightning
and thunder that accompanied the
dust clouds than at the possibility of
being buried by ash, because they had
nothing in their lifelong experience by
which to judge the binding and deaf
ening noise from the skies.

IN He question of smoking among
= women is one that shows just how
some customs that are absolutely
taboo In one generation gain social
recognition and acquire a code Of
manners in the next.
In our grandmother's day smoking
among ONE was unheard of-ex-
cepting for the occasional old crone
who puffed away at her pipe. Today
many women smoke. Many well-bred
women smoke. And so there has
grown up a code of rules about smok-
ing for wOmen
In some Of the big city hotels wom-
en- are allowed to smoke In the dining
room. In some of the tea rooms, too,
they are. In some, certain parts of
the restaurants or tea rooms, like the
sun parlor or the palm rooms, are set
aside for diners who wish to smoke,
both men and women.
Strange to say, at one Of the gayest
New York restaurants women are
even now requested not to smoke. If
a Is seen smoking, the walter
brings a little note to her table, writ
ten on n of the check blanks. and
turns it face down, next to her es-
cort. This requests the woman not
to smoke, as the rule of the house is
against it. Her only part, of course,
is gracefully to extinguish her cigar
cite.
Recently a good deal Of trouble was
raised in England because certain ho-
tells for girls allowed smoking-set
aside special smoke rooms. Indeed,
the decision caused a split In the or
ganization, it IS said. And in this
country much indignant protest has
heard because at a certain wom-
ems college placards have been posted
asking the girls not to smoke In the
dormitories-although they are at lib
erty to do so elsewhere.
Now, by general recognition. smek-

Battle for Fruit Of DURHAM Tree.

RdtlIC IOf TTult CI OuTian tFe6.
Desperate fights oyer the ownership
Of DURAN trees are of yearly occur
renee in the Malay peninsula. Some
times, when a tree has been found
near a borderline, entire villages have
been wiped out in the struggle to pos
ress 1t.
It is impossible to compare the
fruit Of the DURAN tree with It's ex-
traordinary odor and flavor, to any
other. The fruit is ereamlike in sub
stance. If the meat Of a banana were
sQuashed and mixed with an equal
quantity of rich cream, a small guam
tity of chocolate and enough garlic to
lend a strong taste 10 the whole, the
result would be about the nearest pos
sible approach to the flavor and con-
sistency of the duriBn. At the same
time, the flavor is extremely delicate
and, of course, indescribably rich.

Z In the course of a lecture on Pre-
cious Stones" Professor Gordon said
that early jewelry did not seem to
have been set In rings.
One of the earliest examples of the
use of rings in statuary was in the
statues of Prometheus, who, when re-
leased from bondage on the interces-
sion of Venus, WORE a ring with a
small piece of the Caucasus in it to
show that he was still chained to the
Caucasus. The idea of a ring being
a sign of bondage has continued since
those days.
Bishops and doctors wore rings by
right because they had signed away
their Independence in order to benefit
mankind.

Luminous Paints.

The luminous ingredient in paints Is
usually either calcium sulphide, barium
or strontium carbonate or sulphate, or
mixtures of these chemicals may be
used. An example Of a luminous paint,
giving a violet, Is as follows: 100 parts
of strontium carbonate, 100 parts Of
sulphur, 0.5 parts each of potassium
chloride and sodium chloride, 0.4 parts
manganese chloride. These are heated
an hour to rs minutes to about 2,372
degrees f. The paint Is prepared by
mixing this with pure linseed oil.

A Grace street woman is today be-
moaning the fact that she hardened
unto the word of a friend about a
year ago and relieved her next
door neighbor of two rugs that had
been put on the line in the yard
for a cleaning. Everything went
all right until the two women had a
quarrel this week and then the
owner of the rugs was tipped of"
as to where they could be found.
A warrant was sworn out for the
arrest of the m charging
grand larceny and a visit to her
home revealed the neighbours two
rugs reposing on the floor as If they
had always been there. Although
somewhat the worse for ten months
of wear, the rugs were quickly re-
cognized by Sam Gubor, of 267
Grace street, as his.
When a~rraigned before Recorder
Pickersgill charged with the theft of
the rugs, Susie B~abeczak, twenty
two, of 265 Grace street. admitted
taking the rugs but insisted that she
had never thought of doing such
a thing until her woman friend had
suggested that the rugs would look
nicer adjoining the floor of her liv-
ing room than hanging on a clothes
line in Gubor's yard.

At the Ditmas

One of the most hard-hearted,
vindictive and relentless men that
even was seer in a motion picture is
Noah Berry, screen father of Lila

new Paramount production, whicn
will be on view at the Ditmas thea

We have all heard of ~cold-hearted
fathers, with a resulting sympathy
for the child; but did you ever hear
of a father who would not allow his
only daughter to make herself pref
~ or follow the natural instincts
of the feminine nature? Well, that
is just what Mr.. Berry does in this
production, and he does it with
consummate artistry.
What circumstances induced the
character so realistically portrayed
by Mr.. Berry to become such an
undesirable parent? Was he natu-
rally mean? No; there was a reason,
which he, as a man in whom the
primitive was strong, believed de-
manded the severe treatment to DE
imposed. For an explanation of this
trait it may suffice to state that on
a gravestone in his tropical garden
was the inscription, Here lie the
