APPEALED TO MANS VANITY
erIhtly colored Beads, In Some
Shape, Have Been Popular In All
Ages and Countries.

Beads are one Of the Oldest wit
nesses to the vanity Of mankind.
The oldest beads were simply stones
with holes through them, which, owing
to their bright color or peculiar shape.
took the fancy Of the finder, who
threaded them on strip OF hide or
fiber. Later, when we became more
civilized, beads made of wood carved
Into fantastic shapes were In favor.
Some beautiful examples Of both kinds
can be seen In the British museum.
Uncivillzed races have a passion for
stringing together various objects as
beads. Human teeth. brightly cOlOred
insects, seeds and even whales teeth,
are worn In this way.
The word bead comes from "bede,"
the old English word for prayer. 1t has
an interesting origin. In olden times.
as a person repeated his prayers they
were counted by ticking off one by one
a string Of small pierced balls which
were threaded together, and in time
these balls came to be called beads.

WILL ALLOW FAMILY CLAIMS
Class Heretofore Regarded a. Unau.
thorizsd Now Permitted by Y.
s, Veterans' Bureau.

Consideration Of class Of veterans
claims heretofore regarded Us unau-
thorized will be permitted by the
United States Veterans bureau, &C
cording to word received by the Amer
lean Legion.
A new ruling provides that claims
which were made for family allowance
after the veterans discharge from the
service can now be considered where
the person to whom 1t was desired to
make the allowance was subsequently
brought BY law within the permitted
class Of beneficiaries.
Insthe particular case submitted by
the Veterans bureau for decision, an
attempt was made by an enlisted man
to claim an allowance for his aunt,
who, he showed, was absolutely de-
pendent upon him for support. At that
time the claim was disallowed because
an aunt was not then, nor now, within
the permitted class Of family allow
ance benefciaries. The aunt involved
In this case. however. stood In loco
pareptis to the enlisted man.
Following the discharge Of the en-
listed man from the service, the first
Sweet bill amended the war risk In
surance act by enlarging the permitted
class to whom allowances might be
, made to include persons who have
stood In loco PARENTS to a member Of
the military or naval forces at any
time prior to his enlistment or induc-
tion for a period Of not less than one
year." This amendment was made
retroactive in Its force to October 6.
1917. The aunt In the case ruled upon
held such status.
In view Of this retroactive provision
the comptroller general has ruled that
q regulation Of the Veterans bureau
requiring that application for family
allowance must have been made while
the enlisted man was still In the serv.
ice to form basis for successful
claim does not apply where subse-
quently enacted law has given rights
which could not have been claimed
while the enlisted man was In service.

Canadian Favors Reciprocity With U. S.

Back In 1911 Hon. w. s. Fielding
Of Canada negotiated with President
Taft for q treaty Of reciprocity be.
tween the United States and Canada.
It failed because eastern Canada
opposed 1t. Mr.. Fielding is now finance
minister, and recently he made an
other trip to Washington to revive the
proposition. 1t Is said In Ottawa his
plan will have the support Of large
majority in the new Canadian parlla'
ment. The farmers Of the western
provinces have increased their voting
strength, and the Liberals stand with
them on this proposition.
The Fielding proposal, made In
the house Of commons at Ottawa, Is
that President Harding reduce by so
per cent the duties on cattle, wheat,
-four, oats. barley, potatoes, onions,
turnips, hay and fish. The Canadian
government would then be authorized
ITO make such reductions Of duties on
similar articles imported into Canada

Horace Towner Has Ungrateful Job

Only little while ago Horace
NJ. Towner, former congressman from
Iowa, was appointed by the President
to be the governor of Porto Rico, to
succeed Il. Mont Rely. Scarcely had
he assumed his new duties than he
found himself confronted with an op.
position as determined as that which
had succeeded in having Rely ousted
from the position.
Governor Towner Is charged with
ignoring the Republican party, which
Governor Reilly favored In his appoint
ments, and with turning virtually all
Offices over to Unlonlsts, the dominant
party Of the island, whose appeals
to Washington brought the change
in administration.
President Harding probably will
be carried into the whirlwind of Porto

Head Of Canadian Railway System.
Long In Army Service, Strong
for Organization.

A Canadian by adoption, but for.
merly citizen of the United States,
Sir Henry Thornton, head Of the
great Canadian national railway sys-
TEN, shows his respect for American
World war fighters on every occasion.
When members of the American
Legion in Canada gathered to pay
tribute to the honored World war dead
Of the nation, Sir Henry was the prin-
cipal speaker. taking this opportunity
to demonstrate his regard for the
heroes Of the land of his birth. The
event was attended not only by Amer
lean Legion members, but representa-
tives Of nearly every allied nation.
One Of the best-known men In the
Dominion Of Canada, Sir Henry Is
heartily cooperating with the attempt
Of the American Legion to organize
the veterans Of the United States now
In Canada Into posts Of the American
Legion. A recent reorganization of
tho Legion In the Dominion has
caused the Inauguration Of such a
campaign.
Sir Henry was born in Logansport,
Ind, In 1871. His early education was
received at st. Paul's, Concord, N. a.,
and he later entered the University Of
Pennsylvania. Here he received a
degree from the civil engineering de-
partment Of the school In 1894. and
almost Immediately obtained employ

company as a draughtsman. He held
various important positions with the
engineering department Of this COM
pany and In 1911 became general su-

much to do with the development Of
the Long Island terminal and with
the electrifcation Of the Long Island
railroad.
In April, 1914, he was called to
